Corey Booker's Insane Plan For Gun Owners

Democratic presidential candidate Cory Booker says he plans to curb gun violence by creating a national license requirement for all firearm owners, which would include an interview and mandatory completion of safety training.

Apparently this far-left radical moron has never bothered to read the Constitution. Like the part that states unequivocally that "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Any educated person knows that a God-given RIGHT  is not a privilege. A privilege can be licensed, regulated, given or taken at will. A RIGHT cannot. Whenever you license or have other requirements for a right, it ceases to be a right and becomes a mere privilege. Imagine if the government were to believe they could require a license to practice religion, or to vote (actually, many states did have a Poll Tax, taxing citizens so they could vote, but the Supreme Court declared them unConstitutional).

Couple the fact that keeping and bearing (carrying) arms is a right and not a privilege, the second part of the above phrase comes into play - being that it is a right, the framers of the Constitution made it doubly clear that it is a right and not a privilege by adding the phrase "shall not be infringed." In other words, government can do nothing to prevent the people from keeping or bearing arms, and can not interfere (i.e. imposing requirements) in them doing so.

Anyone who has doubts only need to look up the definitions for RIGHTS and INFRINGE.

Which brings us to a salient point: Corey Booker is not fit for any elective office, let alone the presidency. A requirement of such office is to swear under oath "...to the best of his ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Booker is not doing so. Nor are most of his 2020 contemporaries, nor most Congressional Democrats.
