According to dictionary.com, fascism is defined as "a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism." The increasing nationalization of the major economic engines in the United States of America can only be leading down one road, to fascism and an ever more tyrannical rule of government.

The current administration, under Barrack Obama, claims that ownership of GM and the banks is a temporary, but necessary step towards economic recovery. The same argument was said of Amtrak, yet decades later, it is still under Government control, bleeding countless taxpayer dollars into another failed government enterprise. In reality, the bailouts of the automakers were a way for Barrack Obama to repay the cronies of the United Auto Workers who gave millions to his campaign.

The bank bailouts did the same for the elite global bankers who have a stranglehold on the monetary supply. There is nothing in it for the taxpayers, except misery and further enslavement, for that is all taxes are, modern-day shackles.

"Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty, teeth and keystone under independence ... from the hour the Pilgrims landed to the present day, events, occurrences and tendencies prove that to ensure peace...the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable ... the very atmosphere of firearms anywhere restrains evil interference. They deserve a place of honor with all that's good." George Washington

The Second Amendment states, "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Gun control is an issue in America that raises quite the controversy. As such, as American citizens, it is our responsibility to examine the nature of this controversy. Despite what critics of the Second Amendment might argue, the Founders recognized private ownership of firearms as one of the best methods for securing the Liberty of the people.

In the Federalist Papers, James Hamilton stated, "(The Constitution preserves) the advantage of being armed, which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation ... (where) the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms." Why would he use the word trust? Because ultimately, armed citizens are the final check on government power. Without arms, the original colonies would have never been able to fight off an oppressive government. In the event of martial law, the individual right to keep and bear arms means that we will always have the means to defend our Freedom. Thomas Jefferson states, "No Free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms."

The fact of the matter is that "gun control" is central to genocide. In recent decades, common technologies have boosted governments' powers over citizens. Accordingly, enforcement of "gun control" laws makes citizens more vunerable than ever to this enhanced government power. Presently, we cannot abolish government. To prevent further genocides, however, we can, and must, abolish "gun control." Everyone knows about the Nazi Holocaust directed against Jews, Gypsies, and others, and most people have some awareness of a Turkish genocide against Armenians (1915-1917) and the Cambodian campaign against all educated persons between 1975 and 1979.

But official campaigns designed to exterminate all the people in a given group were also carried out in the Soviet Union, in China, in Guatemala (against the Indian population between 1960 and 1981), and in Uganda under the brutal regime of Idi Amin. Each genocide has been preceded by major "gun control" legislation, like HR 45 in the United States of America, that facilitated the confiscation of weapons from the targeted victims.

The most important thing we can do to prevent future genocides is to eliminate "gun control" laws from the arsenal of government weapons against the rights of the people.The reason the Second Amendment is included in the Bill of Rights of the US Constitution is to protect America, as a last resort, against a tyrannical government.

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." Benjamin Franklin

Since September 11, 2001, the threat of "terrorism" has brought concerns about safeguarding the "homeland." In response to the imminent threat of domestic "terrorist" activity, the US Justice Department constructed a body of legislation that is known as the USA Patriot Act. Some terms of this hastily enacted legislation altered the standard due process procedures and constitutional rights that offenders and citizens previously enjoyed under the US Constitution.

On October 17, 2006 George W. Bush signed the Military Commissions Act (ends the writ of habeas corpus) and allowed the president to station military troops anywhere in the United States and, thereby, take control of state-based National Guard units without the consent of the governor or local authorities, in order to "suppress public disorder."

There is nothing in the "detainee" legislation that protects American citizens from being kidnapped by their own government and tortured. Yale Law Professor Bruce Ackerman states, in the LA Times, "The compromise legislation...authorizes the president to seize American citizens as enemy combatants, even if they have never left the United States. And once thrown into military prison, they cannot expect a trial by their peers or any other of the normal protections of the Bill of Rights."

Furthermore, President George W. Bush, without issuing a press statement, on May 9, 2007, signed a directive that granted near dictatorial powers to the office of the president in the event of a national emergency declared by the president. The "National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive," with the dual designation of NSPD-51, as a National Security Presidential Directive, and HSPD-20, as a Homeland Security Presidential Directive, establishes under the office of president a new National Continuity Coordinator.
