IMPORTANT TO YOUR LIBERTY - 3/3/09 - As of this writing, over
30 State legislatures have introduced or passed a resolution
to reassert/reclaim the sovereignty of the respective states per the 9th and 10th Amendment to
the Constitution for the united States of America. A line is being drawn
in the sand. The states of the Union ARE NOT agents of the Federal
Government. The states created the Federal Government to act as agent for
the states in extremely limited circumstances.
Until very recently, West Virginia was not among the majority of states that
are reclaiming their lawful status. Fortunately, a draft resolution is now
prepared and has been sent to Central Bill Drafting of the West Virginia
Legislature. The resolution needs to make it through committee and to the
floor of the House of Delegates and Senate to be voted on.
Please download a copy of the West Virginia draft resolution and read it by clicking

Then, phone, fax, and/or email any/all W.Va. state Senators and Delegates and
let them know that you support the resolution. You can find the contact
information for area Legislators HERE.
If you are care about Freedom and Liberty;
If you want your children/grandchildren to grow up in a land where they are not
fearful of government;
If you believe that your rights, your total freedom and liberty are given to you
by your Creator, and not granted to you by any government;
Please support West Virginia Sovereignty.
The current Federal Administration is decidedly anti-gun ownership, despite
the statements to the contrary during the run-up to the 2008 election. The
Obama administration is planning to reinstate the ban on semi-automatic
firearms. Some proponents of new anti-gun legislation seek provisions that
would require special permits, fees for certain firearms and to require
citizens to turn in banned weapons with stiff fines and prison terms for those
who refuse to relinquish their 2nd Amendment right to keep and bear arms.
A free and sovereign state of the Union can not be dictated to, or have
its citizens' rights infringed by a servant Federal government that we, the
people of the Union states created and granted limited powers. It does not
happen...unless we let them.
"Studies have shown that criminals fear armed citizens far more
than police. Their fear is reasonable since up to 3,000 criminals are
lawfully killed each year by armed civilians - more than three times the
number killed by the police. An additional 9,000 to 17,000 are criminals are
wounded by civilians each year. In addition, more than 15 studies have
shown that citizens use guns in self-defense between 800,000 and 3.6 million
times annually (in the vast majority of cases merely showing the firearm
wards off the attack or prevents the crime). Award-winning criminologists
Gary Kleck and Mark Gertz estimated that defensive gun uses (DGUs) totaled
more than 2.5 million per year. Another study sponsored by the National
Institute of Justice and carried out by the Police Foundation found an even
greater number of DGUs - approximately 2.73 million a year. Either figure is
far larger than the number of crimes committed with firearms each year. Thus,
any legislation that discourages or mistakenly disallows legally permitted
persons from lawfully purchasing a firearm in a timely manner could place
them, and the general public at increased risk from violent crime."

On War And The People
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in
Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is
understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine
the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it
is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist
dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the
bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL
THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of
patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY
COUNTRY."
