I almost fainted when I saw this tweet in my feed.
HOLY CRAP! Old heads will remember when Ladd quoted from a paper by Carl T. Bogus (not joking, that is the name) titled Heller and Insurrectionism.
The most significant aspect of District of Columbia v. Heller is the Court’s pronouncement that the Founders intended to guarantee an individual right to keep and bear arms. But there is another idea lurking in the Court’s opinion with potentially great ramifications of its own: the idea that the Founders gave us a right to keep and bear arms as an ultimate check against governmental tyranny. This is an insurrectionist theory because it legitimizes a right of the people to be armed, potentially to go to war against their own government.
…this essay is a plea that the Court reconsider its endorsement of insurrectionism.
Ladd latched to this concept for years. You supported the Second Amendment? You were an evil insurrectionists. and had no issue quoting this paper.
You can go have fun of the exchange LC Soctty had with Ladd and how he defended some very indefensible things. A now retired Gun Blogger went as far as creating patches commemorating CSGV’s stupidity:
No, they are no longer available and yes, I have mine as a duly “appointed” (By CSGV) insurrectionist.
And you will see it as a joke, but Ladd and his minions got tired of reporting us as dangerous criminals to Twitter and the authorities. Still back then Twitter was not still in the full Soviet shit, Twitter Gulag was in its infancy and shadowbanning was not even a concept. We were hated then as we and you are now.
But it is nice to see Ladd coming around and giving us the proper respect…even if accidentally.
