Woke Democrats, which will be the majority party in the Michigan legislature beginning in Jan. 2023, have started their campaign to go after the 2A and gun owners.
Already drafted is House Bill 6544 which would make it a five-year jail sentence to possess a legal, semi-automatic rifle.
The sponsor is Rep. Jeffrey Pepper (pictured) of District 15. He is a trial attorney by profession.
The Dearborn native is also appropriately described as a "traitorous oath breaker," by the creator of the doctored photo, because MI public officials swear to uphold the U.S. Constitution before enacting the duties of their respective offices.
The Second Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights which is the first 10 Amendments to the Constitution.
It reads: "... the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
Make some noise, people! Don't let THEM infringe.
From a Facebook post today:
”A moment of reflection: they were here, and then, they were not.
On this day-December 14, 2012, twenty first graders, and six educators, were murdered at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.
Today, the number one cause of death in children beneath the age of 18 years — in America — is gun injuries. Unbelievable.”
I challenge them to understand the amendment for how it is written not for what they want it to mean. Cherry picking is ridiculous.

Thank you for staying on top of this ERG!! We know how these "sensible gun controls" turn in to complete confiscation of guns and elimination of the 2nd amendment. No thank you! I'll be writing to my representative!
Over The Top, ERG?
* Thank goodness for free speech, that other (First) amendment! Are you — and the mystery artist (WHO put this meme — a personal attack on an individual person — together?) — labeling Rep. Pepper a “Traitor?” For speaking freely and advocating what some would refer to as “sensible gun control?”
How about those who successfully advocated — years ago — to strip law-abiding citizens of their right to possess sawed-off shotguns and Al Capone-era Tommy Guns? (***) Was this historical advocacy — by members of Congress — “treasonous?” Asking the judges here?
* Maybe you aren’t aware of former President Trump’s advocacy lately to suspend (“terminate”) parts of the Constitution that he once swore to…
