Politicians on the left have been hoping to ban guns and gun-related items in the United States for years.

They’ve tried to ban certain sized magazines, types of bullets, gun accessories (like silencers and bump stocks), they’ve used taxes as a deterrent to purchases and have called for the registration of all guns even though gun registration has historically lead to gun confiscation.

While these attempts against gun ownership are clearly unconstitutional and upsetting, their effects have not been immediately life-threatening. For most, giving the legal process time to roll these infringements back seems to be a reasonable course of action.

Red Flag Laws

Recently, however, and for the first time in our nation’s history, things have been escalated to a whole new level, actual gun confiscation without due process is starting to happen, and as a result, lives have already been lost.

On November 5th, 2018, 61-year-old Gary J. Willis was shot dead in the State of Maryland by officers who were enforcing an unconstitutional red flag law that allowed for the confiscation of his weapons without due legal process and based on nothing more than hearsay.

To propose laws that actively employ agents of the state to use deadly force to take away guns from people that already own them and without due process, an action that can and already has resulted in the death of American citizens crosses a new red line against our Constitution (and basic morality) that is treasonous.

But without consequences for their actions, Politicians are free to propose whatever laws they wish, no matter how unconstitutional they may be, and to enforce them for however long they can before the courts eventually strike them down.

Certainly, our nation’s founders did not create the Constitution as a set of rules to be broken by Politicians at will and with no punishment.

And yet, because we do not respond to violations with punishment, politicians know they can act with impunity, so they continue to treat our founding document without respect. Today, rather than living in a Constitutional republic, we find ourselves living in a constantly violated republic.

What we need is a framework that criminally punishes our Constitution’s violators, a process by which we the people are able to drag these treasonous bastards into court and then sentence them for their crimes against our nation.

Red States Lead The Way

According to Wikipedia’s definition of treason:

Violating the clearly enumerated constitutional rights of citizens without due process can be said to be an attempt to overthrow the founding principles of a government and therefore an act of waging war against the government itself. Bringing armed agents of the state to bear against the citizens without due process and to enforce unconstitutional laws can be construed as conducting war against those citizens.

According to the U.S. Constitution Congress initiates the charge of treason when it is committed against the United States.

The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted.

Each state can also levy the charge according to its Constitution, meaning that the charge is political in nature.

While Virginia is run by Democrats it is not likely that the Virginia House of Delegates will levy a charge of treason against a politician for undermining the U.S. Constitution by passing gun control laws, but these charges could be levied in Red States, and warrants could be issued (for example) for a Virginia politician by the State of West Virginia so the politician may be arrested and charged should they ever set foot within West Virginia’s state lines.

The argument could follow that a politician who waged war against the U.S. Constitution while in Virginia, also waged war against each of the fifty individual states that are bonded by that Constitution.

In this way charges of treason could be levied in Red States all across the nation for all politicians who are pushing Unconstitutional gun laws.

Being banned and with the threat of imprisonment from half of the states in the country would be the beginnings of a deterrent to out of control politicians who wage war against our nation’s founding principles.
