Write YOUR "I Will Not Comply" letter!

[Anti Federalist]

This deserves its own thread.

Mega rep. and HUGE hat tip to PaulBot24



Here's an idea. We could use his letter as a template and flood her office, the White House, and any Senators that co-sponsor this.



Senator Dianne Feinstein, (insert sponsoring Senator here), and President Barack Obama,

I will not register any weapons I might possess, should this bill be passed, as I do not believe it is the government’s right to know what I own. Nor do I think it prudent to tell you what I own so that it may be taken from me by a group of people who enjoy armed protection yet decry me having the same a crime. You ma’am/sir have overstepped a line that is not your domain. I am an American citizen, protected by the Constitution, and I will not have anybody who proclaims the evil of an inanimate object, yet enjoys daily personal protection with these same objects, tell me I may not have one.

I am not your subject. I am the citizen who keeps you free. I am not your servant. I am the citizen you call upon to fight your wars. I am not your peasant. I am the flesh and blood of America.

I am an American citizen. You will not take away my Constitutional rights because of the actions of another.

I will not be disarmed to suit the fear that has been established by the media and your misinformation campaign against the American public.

We, the people, deserve better than you.

Respectfully Submitted,

Thank you AF. Of course, the real hat tip goes to Joshua Boston. I hope it starts a liberty brushfire.

How about a web page for folks to sign up, kind of like the Black This Out pledge page?

Along with an additional pledge that we will not vote for any Senator who sponsors this bill or any Reps who draft or sponsor similar bills from the House.

I WILL NOT COMPLY

[pcosmar]

Sadly, I have been in compliance (under duress) for some time.

I'm waiting to see what the armed people do about it.

If current events are any guide, very little, if anything.

I will not comply, however.

Do the overlords allow you to have ammo? In times of war, weapons can be readily acquired from the enemy, ammo not so much

I'm a bit more hopeful. Once the crash hits and the riots start, people may be emboldened.

If the confiscations happen before the crash hits though.. you may be right, at that point it's time to put emigration plans in action :/

As an "armed people" I am too.

Where the weapons are,,there is usually ammo..

Pick up anything laying around.

I am a Garboligist after all.

Nevermind.

I was going to create a Farcebook page for it but I don't think I would have time to keep it up.

Dear Senator Feinstein,

Not being a resident of your socialist empire, this letter will undoubtedly be consigned to the scrap heap of history by your staff. So be it, but at a minimum for my emotional satisfaction and some sense of obligation that I feel to you in your role as a United States Senator, please be aware of the following:

I am reliably informed that you intend to sponsor legislation in the United States Senate to possibly tax, restrict, and or confiscate certain arms now in possession of the citizenry of the United States. As you are undoubtedly aware, there is a substantial number of citizens who will consider such legislation to be contrary to our Constitution. While some may think that the authors of the supreme law of the land were so concerned with the necessity of duck hunting, that a tenth of our Bill of Rights is dedicated to the subject. Such is not the case.

You may consider yourself to be notified, that a vote an Intolerable Act on the citizens of the United States right to keep and bear arms will be a vote for civil war. This is required by my oath to the Constitution.

[Brett85]

Hobby Lobby does not comply. We should support them.

The idea sounds good, but could backfire in that it provides those in power with a lot of potentially very valuable information. I am not sure we should be making their jobs easier. I would also point out that the only way this campaign would stand even the barest sliver of a chance of working as desired in so much as small measure would be for several tens of millions of people to write them. If the turn out were less than 30 millions, I would call it an abject failure.

Let us keep in mind to whom we write: those who do not give the least damn what we think or say. This should be abundantly obvious to anyone with their eyes open and brain in gear. These people have revealed with ever greater brazenness their utter contempt and dismissal of our rights and opinions, so unless at least 1 in 10 speak up in like manner, I would call this not only a waste of time but an act of needless and probably foolish self-endangerment.

Liberty it the right, authoritarianism the wrong. Of that I hold no doubt. Given this, I believe the proper strategy is to keep "them" guessing as much as possible. Give them nothing until such time as may be right. Just my opinion. Oh, and I do not presume to know what that time might be.

Assuming I am wrong, lets see what tweaking this letter can sustain.



I am writing to place all officials, agents, representatives, and other instruments of the United States Government on constructive notice of my refusal to register any weapons I might possess, should the above captioned bill be enacted. Such enactment constitutes a gross and intolerable violation of my pre-existing fundamental and inherent human rights as recognized, guaranteed, and protected under the provisions of the Constitution of the United States of America. At no time, in any way, under any circumstance, or by any conceivable virtue does Government or any part, representative, or agent thereof hold authority to dictate what I may or may not possess, nor can it claim authority to be privy to my inventory of such possessions, regardless of their nature, form, or quantity.

Enactment of any restriction in violation of my fundamental rights constitutes trespass upon the territory of my exclusive and rightful prerogatives as an individual human being to live in accord with the dictates of my conscience. As such, I am under no obligation to comply with any such mandate or other violation, regardless of nature or degree. I hereby announce my complete, absolute, and unequivocal rejection of such violations, and my consequent and utter refusal to comply in any way or measure. Furthermore, I will not suffer the hypocrisy of anyone who enjoys daily personal protection of the very instrumentality they seek to deny me.

As a sovereign individual, waiving nothing of my rights and prerogatives in any measure, I neither recognize, confirm, or acknowledge the authority of any individual, group thereof, establishment, or institution of any form or origin and regardless of their asserted contrary claims, as being superior to my own. I am neither your servant, subject, or slave. I am not yours to command in any way whatsoever. I hereby announce and proclaim my independence as an individual and my immunity from all third-party fiat, regardless of source. Let this serve as notice of my intention to exercise all my rights as I see fit and pursuant to my natural and inborn authority to so act and, secondarily, as guaranteed and protected by the Bill of Rights as amended to the Constitution of the United States of America and in particular the First, Second, Ninth, and Tenth Amendments.

I will not rest content be disarmed by anyone at any time or for any reason. Let it be further stated that the material power of government agents to violate my inborn and inalienable rights does not equate with authority. Force is nothing other than force. Labeling it as "authority" does not make it that.


Respectfully Submitted,

For another thread.

[Deborah K]

I will be writing one, but I don't expect it to have any effect whatsoever on that tyrannical POS. Her office got over 85 thousand calls during the vote on the bail-outs (during Bush's admin) and she STILL voted for it. She is entrenched and will be there until she dies because the entrenched in our government believe themselves to be our royalty.

But during martial law it won't stop them from searching your house anyway - just to make sure....

Of course she won't pay it any mind.

None of these tyrants will.

It's not for them.

It's for us.

Rather than signing your own confession to an offense, just don't do it. Meaning that this will first have to go to the Supreme Court. There will also be a restraining order. Don't worry, as lawyers like wearing nice suits, they tend to draw things out in ways that best suit themselves. First off, my state of Texas might tell the Federal government to go screw itself. I myself just wouldn't know what to do as I wouldn't know the proper way of how to be obedient. Do I do what the Federal Government says I should do or what the U.S. Constitution says? Even if the Supreme court rules against the people by saying that black is white in this matter, what do we do? I just don't know. I do want to be a good citizen, but, more important, I want to be available to fight for my neighbor against tyranny.
I just don't know. I am very perplexed on this matter.

I won't be writing a letter because I have already been disarmed.

If I were to "take up arms" I would have to do exactly that. Take Them.

I do not want that day to come.

Add to that.
A letter from a non-person is a wasted letter.

Well we could sit back and nervously mumble about things like this only to "safe" people, but that is not exactly our nature is it? We are here in support of a Congressman that embraces "civil disobedience", who also has a son in the Senate that says it's time for an "American Spring", basically calling for an uprising against his own government in one of his speeches on the Senate floor. I'm not sure what point you are making here. I'm not interested in waving at opportunities as they pass me by while biding my time for the "perfect scenario" that will never come.

What is an "Arab Spring?" There must be some shallow lady or gentleman in the media somewhere who coined that nonsense. There can only be one American Movement. All other movements are false. How does this Arab Spring relate to the Ancient Greeks, the French Revolution, and the American Enlightenment?
This is the one thing that is going to unite what is left of our Democratic Republic so there is no way they are going to attempt it. You don't have to tell me. There are a lot meaner bastards than us who aren't going to be putting up with any of this nonsense. I don't drink, but I need to get out to the bars to see what is up. I really don't know what to do or who to obey in this matter. My heart as a born member of the militia lies in loving my neighbor as myself. That means helping to protect them from the long nose of tyranny.

[osan]

I would not bet the farm on that assumption.

That aside, there is NOTHING to stop them from burying you in any case if you attract the wrong sort of attention.

Bear in the painful forefronts of your minds that all political principle is dead, save one: getting what one chooses. With the mass slaughter of better normative standards in favor of that of pure and unrestrained pragmatism, patience for the now-superseded remnants of the "old law" grows threadbare, the effects of which we witness daily as police go ever closer to hog-wild in their behavior toward "the enemy", which would be you and I.

In a world that made marginally better sense than this one, I would expect the up and coming weapons "reform" bill to die in committee. I am willing to bet money, right here and right now, that no such thing will happen. It will be passed through no matter how outrageous it may prove because "they" have nothing to lose by trying. Even if it loses effect in a couple years under a SCOTUS strike, it will have served several purposes including mental conditioning in general and the furtherance of yet another schism designed to serve in the divide-and-conquer strategy for bringing the American people to heel.

In addition, getting something outrageous through committee will set a good precedent for "them" for future attempts. They can try again and again and each attempt further inures the minds of the mall population to what they do.
