"DON LEMON: Black people, brown people of all stripes, whether you're an Indian American or a Mexican American, or whoever you are, go out in your place where you live and get a gun legally, get a license to carry legally. Because when you have people knocking on your door and taking you away without due process as a citizen, isn't that what the Second Amendment was written for? Go back and read what the Second Amendment says.

And perhaps it will knock some sense in the heads of these people who are saying, well, it's all great. I don't believe they're doing it without due process. They're asking people for papers. They're not really beating people up. These people are doing things that are illegal. Nobody is illegal. It is a misdemeanor to cross the border."

**********

Well, isnt that just peachy. Don Lemon is saying that if you think what ICE is doing than you should kill them. Kash Patel should arrest him for inciting  iolence against public officials. 

Don't you think that if I were wrong that I would know it?

No, he's saying you should defend yourself against government officials if they act illegally against you.

That is your right isn't it?

Oh boy. For decades (since 1977 when the NRA invented a novel reading of the 2nd amendment that proposed an individual right to bear arms) conservatives have been saying that the whole point of gun nuttery is for the people to defend themselves against a tyrannical government. But now that Don Lemon said it they're going to twist themselves up trying to figure out where they stand now.

No. The premise that ICE is doing something illegal is utterly false.

If we ever get to tyranny, then you can pull out the guns. This isnt tyranny. This is enforcing the laws we voted on.

Americans don't have the right to defend themselves from their government if needs be?

Are you being pedantic just to be annoying? 

No, Americans can't just go around shooting government officials just because they disagree. Further, illegal aliens that take up arms become enemy combatants and will be dealt with appropriately. 

The second amendment is for defense. When they wrote the Constitution, there was a real threat that France would invade the fledgling country. The primary purpose of 2A was to have citizens that were acquainted with fire arms. If they knew how to shoot, then they could be taught to march and fight much faster. Hence "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State". A well regulated militia meant a properly function militia. Further, Hamilton argued, in Federalist no. 29, that the militias would be state run and would prevent the federal government from becoming tyrannical. 

So, yes, 2A is about maintaining freedom and states' rights. No, it does not give an individual the ability to pop a cap in an ICE agent.

Individuals are on their own? I get it that collectively everyone has the law on their side but until the due process that makes that happen occurs is everyone expected to submit to whatever a government official does to them? Submission to authority is the only correct legal course of action available to Americans?

Stand your ground laws don't apply?

Yep. Name a country that let's you shoot government officials you disagree with.

America. It seems there are plenty of cases where people have been acquitted or charges were dropped when self-defense was cited.

Go look it up yourself. Here's the question I typed into my search bar.

has any American been acquitted of shooting a government official due to self defense

It yielded nothing that would support your thesis. Mostly Rittenhouse and one guy in Houston that shot an off duty cop, not in uniform, in self defense. Do you have anything?

It's Don Lemons thesis not mine. Yours is that he should be arrested for inciting violence.

I doubt he will be due to it still being an open question in America if citizens can arm themselves in self defense from illegally overreaching public officials.

Government is only tyrannical if you have no legal recourse. These people have legal recourse.

No, that's not your right and that's not why people own guns.

A government is only tyrannical when you have no legal recourse to address what you believe are illegal actions. In the case of ice they're absolutely are courts and they have absolutely already rendered decisions with regards to this that have to be upheld

The constitution absolutely does not call for or empower people to kill government agents instead of taking them through the legal process. It was there to deal with governments who set aside the legal process which hasn't happened

I was flabbergasted when you came out in support of the terrorists killing Jews on October 7th, I am utterly baffled how you can sit here and encourage the killing of police officers rather than addressing it in the courts

You are one effed up guy

It is absolutely yours. You literally just moments ago claimed that in your opinion it was their right. You don't even have to go back a page you just have to scroll up

Oh dear, did you manage to get triggered just by me speaking the truth again? LOLOL

You support violence whenever you can as long as it's from the left. But advocating shooting police is a new low for you

I asked if it was gatos right, not mine. I already know Canadians don't have that right. Whether Americans have that right is what's at issue. I doubt it myself and I guess we'll know for sure if officials show up at Don Lemons and arrest him for his...free speech crime.

It isn't an open question. 18 U.S.C. § 115 - (Threatening Public Officials) prohibits killing public officials (cops and ICE included).  18 U.S. Code § 373 - (Solicitation to commit a crime of violence makes) what Don Lemon said illegal. 

What fantasy world are you living on?

"Donald Trump suggested that "Second Amendment people" might be able to do something to prevent Hillary Clinton from appointing judges who could overturn the Second Amendment, which drew significant criticism for implying a violent interpretation. His campaign later clarified that he was referring to the political power and unity of gun rights supporters."

Did you really make me get multiple statutes and make multiple posts over several hours and you had no fùcking clue what you were talking about?! Cmon man. Do better.

Oh, okay, I'm sure that's all Don Lemon is suggesting then. That everyone should embrace the same political power and unity all 2nd Amendment folks enjoy.

You wouldn't begrudge anyone that right would you?

Why make it sound like Lemon told people to go kill public officials?

It makes sense, abolishing it might prevent Americans from believing they need to defend themselves from their government.

You do think that would be a healthy sense to cultivate don't you, especially in these politically violent times?

Well then, a better outcome would be for us Canadians to have a similar entry in our billabong of rights, in these violent times.
