Second Amendment is not outdated
05/28/18 at 18:36:25
 
n Friday, British free-speech activist and Islam critic Tommy Robinson was acting as a responsible citizen journalist — reporting live on camera from outside a Leeds courtroom where several Muslims were being tried for child rape — when he was set upon by several police officers. In the space of the next few hours, a judge tried, convicted, and sentenced him to 13 months in jail — and also issued a gag order, demanding a total news blackout on the case in the British news media. Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was immediately taken to Hull Prison.

Hull Prison, in Kingston upon Hull, England, where Tommy Robinson was taken to serve a 13-month prison sentence just hours after his arrest on Friday, May 25.

Most media outlets were remarkably compliant. News stories that had already been posted online after Robinson’s arrest at the Scottish Daily Record, Birmingham Live, The Mirror, RT, and Breitbart News were promptly pulled down, although, curiously, a report remained up at the Independent, a left-wing broadsheet that can be counted on to view Robinson as a hooligan. Indeed, the Independent’s article described Robinson as “far-right” and, in explaining what he was doing outside the courthouse, used scare quotes around the word “reporting”; it then summed up the least appealing episodes in his career and blamed him for an attack on the Finsbury Park Mosque last January. Somehow, the Independent also got away with publishing a report on London’s Saturday rally in support of Robinson.

Also on Saturday, Breitbart UK posted a copy of the gag order, but redacted it as required. The resulting document proved to be a perfect illustration of Western Europe’s encroaching tyranny.V

Absent the second amendment, there is . ultimately, no way to enforce or guarantee the first.

Of course the Brits have neither.  No Bill of Rights to delineate what their govermant CANNOT do. In their parliamentary system, the LAW, is whatever Parlament says it is, at any given time. And since the British subjects have allowed themselves  to be disarmed, they ar pretty much fu*ked at this particular time, possibly forever.That's how you wind up with Tommy Robinson.

Some words of wisdom:

Judge Alex Kozinski in his dissent to the Ninth Circuit’s denial of review in Silveira v. Lockyer:


"The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed—where the government refuses to stand for reelection and silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees. However improbable these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake a free people get to make only once."

Very interesting this Tommy Robinson thing.
 Seems like the, ‘cover up’ was NOT  fast enough.
And/or to many people knew about it.
 OR, a Country which HAS  a 1st & 2nd, reported.

Some tidbits from:
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/may/30/tommy-robinson-alt-righ...
“…through this lens that we can view Tommy Robinson and the recent shenanigans at Leeds crown court…”
“…Meanwhile, the radical leftist elites control the media and have no respect for free speech….”
“…Blocking reporting of criminal trials no longer works. …”
“…  Once the foreign media get involved there is no way to control reporting. …”
“…The popular nationalist revolution isn’t coming to the UK: it is already here….”


And this  HUGE, ‘Wonderment’.
Word for Word, from that sight !
“The Tommy Robinson case shows ‘alt-right’ tactics are here in the UK”

WHAT !, Conservatives want to BAN  Free Speech ?
Conservatives want to BAN  Freedom ?
Conservatives want to BAN Guns  ?
          (all ready done in the UK)

Adding to the cases, of the children, which the parents,
were, FORBIDDEN, to take them elsewhere.
 (And according to the Liberal Guardian)
One was Trumps fault, and the other one, Huckabee.
