Constitutionally-Ignorant Cops: The Teeth of the Tyrants

Royce, who supports all law enforcement officials that honor their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution, conversely, opposes all cops that don't. Especially those that enforce Constitutionally repugnant gun control laws, and in so doing, ruin lives and families for running afoul of these laws that should never have been proposed, much less passed, in the first place.

This episode bears this out rather bluntly, and, if you're a law enforcement officer, you're going to be challenged in this episode. Be prepared for some hurt feelings.

We are locked, loaded, and we are loud on the Shooting Straight radio podcast. This is all about firearms with a heavy, heavy emphasis on the Second Amendment and all things pertaining thereto.
I am Royce, your oh-so-cute, cuddly, huggable, lovable, squeezable host, and it is said that I reek of gunshot residue, toxic masculinity, and a faint yet oh-so-wildly tantalizing whiff of the cologne of my people, which would be hops number nine. You'd better believe it. Hey, if you'd like to reach out to me with a comment, a question, anything like that, you want to share an article with me like some of you do,
shooting straight radio podcast at gmail.com or shooting straight radio show at gmail.com. And many thanks to, um,
Good night. There's probably about 100 of you that send me things all the time, and I really appreciate that. I use a lot of the stuff you send me in my show prep. A lot of times these are local articles that I receive that don't make national news, and they're sent to me by people in their localities that, you know, these incidents happen in their localities. So thank you all for being part of this program. I sincerely appreciate that.
Let's dive on into things. And fair warning to all of my friends in law enforcement, this program is going to piss you off. Yeah, this episode is going to annoy you. It's not that I don't care. I do. I don't like purposely making enemies, and that is not my goal here. My goal is to bring attention to the constitutional issues surrounding the Second Amendment.
And police officers, unfortunately, have played a way too major part in the oppression and infringement of the Second Amendment in this country. And I'm going to reference a couple of articles here, and then in the second half, I'm going to really just start laying down some simple principles and precepts that all of you...
who strap on the badge and the gun and all the other things that go forth out to fight violent crime and whatever else you do, you're probably not going to enjoy this. If it pricks you to your conscience, I hope you will make a change. If it makes you scratch your head and go, you know what, he's right, but gee, what do I do? Well,
It's very easy for me to tell you what you should do, but of course you have to make the decision on whether or not you do the right thing or the wrong thing. But you are an active part of enforcement of laws that are constitutionally repugnant. And I'm primarily referencing...
All of you law enforcement officials in all of the communist-occupied territories and states within the union, that being California, New Jersey, New Mexico's government too, New York, Massachusetts, Maryland, Chicago, Illinois, Washington, Oregon, Washington, D.C., and now what they're trying to pull in, Virginia. You guys are required to...
uphold and defend the Constitution over and above any other law. Hear me now. The Constitution is the supreme law. Anything that runs counter or contrary thereto is null and void at the will of the people. The problem is, a lot of you guys just simply enforce the law for the sake of enforcing the law.
Too many of you have an attitude problem. I'm going to go ahead and go there, too. Too many of you, once you put your uniform on, you start thinking you're king crap on Turd Mountain, and you are literally the walking embodiment of the law. No, you're not. You get paid to enforce the law, and the only laws that you are really allowed to enforce...
are laws that square with the Constitution. Now, let me just reference an article here by A.W.R. Hawkins. He writes for Breitbart, a fine Second Amendment man. The title of the article is, Minnesota Democrat introduces bill allowing police to enter homes to check storage of semi-automatic weapons. Well, I guarantee you, people, first of all, I warned you this would happen.
I warned you back when they started proposing these things, and I was still on WMMB, a diehard radio, back in these days, when I warned about these safe storage laws being nothing but a future circumvention of the Fourth Amendment. And boy, here it is. Here's the article. Minnesota State Senator Matt Kline, a Democrat communist, has put forward legislation, listen carefully,
that would allow police to enter homes to check compliance with semi-automatic gun storage.
One part of the sentence he left off, enter homes without warrant. You catch that? They don't need a warrant. If this bill passes, people in Minnesota will have to either fight against these people trying to invade their homes without warrant or roll over and take it. Well, unfortunately, what do you think is going to happen? They're going to roll over and take it.
Unfortunately, we have a precedent in this country, in every state, of people rolling over and just taking it. And we have established precedence of compliance with constitutionally repugnant laws, and that needs to come to a screeching freaking halt yesterday. The language allowing police to enter the home is contained in a semi-automatic firearm ban, very similar to the one that failed to make it out of committee in late Friday.
Breitbart News noted that the ban that failed in committee February contained a grandfather clause allowing current owners of prohibited firearms to keep them by obtaining a quote-unquote certificate of ownership, listen to this next part carefully, and consenting to store their semi-automatic firearms in a certain way inside the home.
First of all, the government has no blippity-blanking business telling you how to store your firearms at all. I don't know any gun owners out there that just leave loaded firearms just laying around. Has it happened? Yep. Have people been injured? Yep. Have kids been injured and shot? Yeah, they have. But those far and few between instances should not be a catalyst for totally violating the Fourth Amendment.
under an illegal law. This law, being proposed as it is, is constitutionally illegal. Now, so, I'm trying to not get ahead of myself. The bill put forward by Klein
SF-4290, takes the same path by requiring owners of would-be prohibited firearms to retain the guns by agreeing to allow law enforcement to enter their homes to check storage. Did I not tell you that's exactly what would happen? Yes. Yes, I did. I'm going to answer my own question. Yes, I told you that's exactly what was going to happen. And here it is.
Shocker of shockers. Gee, it's not like I know these people, huh? Yeah, you better know your enemy. You better know how they think. That's the only way you'll ever have a chance of defending yourself against them, especially these filthy, godless communists. Klein's bill also bans magazines holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition, although he exempts a .22 long rifle tube ammunition feeding device from the ban. Of course, that probably...
excuse me, because he owns a Ruger 1022 or something like that, and he doesn't want it to affect him. Now, let me translate all this for you. For you people there in Minnesota, if this bill passes and don't think it can't or it won't, because that will be your demise, what this means is in order for you to...
exercise your Second Amendment right to own semi-automatic weapons, and it is a right that the government has no right to make you get a permit to exercise, if you want to exercise your Second Amendment rights, you must first give up your Fourth Amendment rights. Since when did any of the founders in any of the writings ever say that we should be held to a position to where we're bartering for one right with another right? What is this crap?
But you must grant police carte blanche entry into your freaking home without a warrant any day, any time they choose. They can simply walk up, knock on your door, and say, we're here to check your compliance. You have a certificate of ownership here, and that gives us warrantless entry into your home. I don't know about you, but people down here in Florida and some of the other freer states.
that would not fly at all. And I guarantee you every law enforcement agency in the state will be getting warning letters from the people saying, you better not even think about this. Number one, we're not going to get a certificate of ownership. We don't need one. There's nothing in the Second Amendment that says we have to get one so you can grab yourself a hammer and head for the beach and pound you all the sand you want. We're not doing it. But...
If you get this certificate of ownership, literally you are signing away your Fourth Amendment right. Now, you want to know what bothers me most about this? Notice the impetus and the emphasis is on the legislators proposing this. Let's take a deeper look in a different direction. What bothers me most about this bill is the fact that if it passes,
Most police officers in the state of Minnesota would not think twice about using this law to enter people's homes without a warrant and not give even a passing thought towards the Constitution and the rights of the residents in that home.
They're going to simply go, well, we have the right to be here, the law says. Well, the Supreme Law says you can't. Well, the state law says I can't, but that doesn't freaking matter. The Supreme Law is supreme for a reason. That means it enjoys primacy over all other laws. Any law that does not square itself with the Supreme Law is null and freaking void at the will of the people. But I want to tell you police officers in Minnesota something. I'm going to tell you this right now.
I know that very few of you will raise an objection to this. Yeah. You won't even give another thought to it. You will willingly enforce this against your fellow citizens and walk into their home without a freaking warrant. How would you like that to happen to you in your home? Hmm?
Would you like an authority higher than you to just walk through the door of your home or knock first and say, we're coming in to check your guns? Would you like that? But you don't think twice. You won't think twice about doing exactly this. Now, don't tell me not to blame the cops. I dead gum sure will. Why? Listen to me. If all the police officers in this country
actually honor their oath to the Constitution, gun control in this country would have no force and would have evaporated a long time ago. I got a very pointed question for all of you cops in Minnesota. How come I haven't heard about none of you protesting this bill? Why are you willing to accept this unlawful power and then turn and wield it against your fellow citizens?
You're constitutionally dyslexic, that's why. Are all of you police officers okay with those in office unlawfully granting you this unconstitutional authority to violate the rights of your fellow citizens there in Minnesota? Well, you must be. I haven't heard a dadgum word from you.
actually upheld and defended the supreme law as you took an oath to do, you would politely but firmly refuse to enforce any gun control laws ever.
Well, it's easy for you to say, Royce, you're not a cop. Yeah, it is easy for me to say, because if I was a cop and you ask anybody that knows me, I would be the first one to say, I will not enforce this. And if you want my badge, here it is. I would slam it down on the desk. And if it was a department issued weapon, I would turn that in too. I'd take off my duty belt and drop it right there in front of the chief's desk and tell him you pick it up if you don't want it there. And I'd walk out in disgust.
And I'd walk out after admonishing every one of my fellow cops that you should not enforce this crap. And if you do, you have made yourself a domestic enemy of the Constitution. You are lending your power that these people gave us. These taxpayers gave us this power. And now you are going to use it against them. How dare you? Let me reference an article now from New York.
by Lee Williams, who was a butt-kicker and a name-taker for the Second Amendment, baby. I'll tell you what. The title of his article is, There Are Two Americas, Ours and Theirs. I'm looking at a picture of two shotguns, the confiscation of which allegedly is keeping New Yorkers safe.
One is an over-under bird gun, obviously a fouling piece, and the other is also a long-barreled bird gun, obviously. It looks like a semi-automatic with an optic on it. And there are, let's see, roughly 50 rounds of ammo. How many rounds of ammo is in this picture? I'm not sure. Anyway, yeah, 60. 60 rounds of ammo.
And NYPD posted this on their page in the 115th Precinct X page, their Twitter page, whatever you want to call Twitter or X these days. And they put this caption on it. Today, our patrol officers responded to a radio run and removed these illegal firearms from our streets. They didn't take them off the streets, though, did you?
Great work by our officers for their quick response and commitment to keeping our community safe. If you really had such a commitment to keep the people of New York safe or the people of the 115th precinct in New York, you wouldn't have confiscated these firearms.
from a lawful citizen now i don't know exactly who they confiscated them from but they certainly do enforce gun control there in new york and they do it without batting a freaking eye here's the article the new york police department has lost its collective mind especially at its 115th precinct which is responsible for keeping a portion of queens and la guardia airport safe sane and secure
The commanding officer, Deputy Inspector David Cordano, recently posted a photo of two shotguns and about 60 shells on his precinct's X page. The guns are nothing special. As semi-automatic and an over and under, the shells include birdshot and slugs. But it's Cordano's caption that has me scratching my head, said Lee Williams.
Today, our patrol officers responded to a radio run. I know I already read it. I don't do it again. And remove these illegal firearms from our streets. Great work by our officers for their quick response and commitment by keeping our community safe. How do you keep your community safe when there's still so much crime going on?
Now Lee says, even though I haven't had a badge in my billfold for quite a while, I still need to say this to Deputy Inspector Cordano. If you truly believe your community is actually put at risk by these guns, you, sir, are ready for the rubber gun squad. In other words, you shouldn't be carrying a real one. So Lee Williams then.
raises some questions about this post. And he says first, and he's addressing Mr. Cordano, he says, why are these shotguns considered illegal? Well, that's a very good freaking question. Why is an over-under bird gun considered illegal in New York? Hmm? Why is a semi-automatic bird gun?
considered illegal. It's made for hunting. These things have like 28-inch barrels on them. There's no blippity-blanking way some criminal is going to hide one of these in his britches and walk down the street and use it feloniously. Secondly, Mr. Williams asks, why were they seized? Well, good question. Well, what were the events surrounding the seizure? He asks also, how did these two shotguns
making an entire precinct unsafe. That's an even better question. How did it? How did those two shotguns threaten the safety and security of every person living in your precinct? And then he asked, how does someone like Cordano earn more than $212,000 per year and command an entire NYPD precinct? And I'm going to add to that, especially since he's so ignorant of the Constitution.
He says, unfortunately, we may never get answers to these questions. Cordano did not respond to calls or messages left at his precinct seeking an interview. Now, Lee says New York is too blue, and he's not referring to cops. He's referring to Democrats. He says NYPD's infamous CompStat report shows that the 115th precinct is actually a safe place to live or run a business.
The precinct hasn't had a recent murder. Robberies and burglaries are down, too, as are grand larcenies. Why, then, is NYPD so freaked out about a couple of shotguns? Well, the answer is simple. The NYPD is the bluest police department in the bluest city in one of the bluest states. I would bet that the vast majority of all NYPD officers never even touched a firearm.
until after they joined the department and were sent to the range. After all, guns and gun owners are bad, right? Well, that's not nonsensical for him to put that in there like that. That's how New Yorkers are raised. Guns and their owners, as long as they're not cops, anybody who's not a cop with a gun is a bad person. That is the sentiment that has pervaded that society.
Look at the extreme lengths one had to take in addition to all the money one had to spend just to obtain a permit to simply possess a firearm within city limits. For decades, that hassle troubled or quadrupled if a citizen actually wanted to carry a concealed firearm legally. This too-blue flu has infected all the cops and especially their top brass.
They are scared of modern firearms and modern firearm owners, petrified of them, in fact. While things have only recently improved somewhat, when compared to a free city or a free state, New York City remains far below the curve. Well, no doubt about that.
In fact, NYPD's extreme anti-gun attitude only benefits the bad guys because they have never once worried about permits or any other legal nicety. Not having to worry about whether their victims may be armed only empowers and benefits these criminals. Well, amen. And that is a pervasive thought process in New York City officers and New York State officers, too, for that matter. I remember my buddy Sarge Linsley.
told me about a cop that had come down here from New York and joined his squad, his force, the agency he was with at the time. And simply because the presence of a gun and a concealed carrier, that cop was ready to stuff him under the jail.
And Scott had to correct him and tell him, no, you can't do that. Well, there's a gun. It's a threat. No, gun does not equal threat. There's a gun on your hip. Are you a threat? Well, that's funny how that logic kind of turns things on its head, huh? Not only that, down here, before we finally had full constitutional carry, that is, open carry and concealed carry without the state's permission.
You could carry a gun openly if you were going to or from fishing, camping, or hunting. And a lot of people would try to test the Second Amendment knowledge of police departments, and they would carry an AR-15 slung over their shoulder or openly carried a pistol and a holster on their hip while carrying a fishing pole on their way to the river.
And this guy stopped one of them and told him, you know, he radioed back apparently. And I don't know if I'm getting this story entirely 100% right, but apparently Scott had to correct him on that one too. And so, well, that's totally legal here. Well, how can that be legal? You understand their mindset here? How can that be legal? Well, just because you weren't raised with the free exercise of the second amendment doesn't mean other people, you know, are not. To him, gun.
Equaled threat. Threat equaled criminal. That's how they view gun owners. That has been drummed into them since their blippity-blanking academy. That's the problem. So why would they post? I mean, honestly, you understand the police officers down here saw that post and began to chortle with laughter. Because down here, you know what they would do if they found those guns?
They'd probably try to find their rightful owner. Yeah, well, I'm not 100% sure about that, too. But I've got my own questions for these police officers on the 115th precinct there in New York City. Is this to you what passes for, quote-unquote, protect and serve these days? Is it? Again, how are you keeping New York safe?
by taking these two guns into custody. They weren't on the streets. I guarantee you that. You might claim they were on the street. They weren't. Do you boys feel like heroes? Because you shouldn't. No, this was not an act of bravery. You enforced an illegal law.
a law that is constitutionally repugnant, a law that should be null and void. But you, there in the 115th precinct, you have lent the power that the people gave you against them. You have turned the power back against them. And you are a willing servant of tyranny, whether you want to believe that or not. You became part of the problem. Did not you?
police officers there in New York, take an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution? Did you or did you not? Don't say yes, but. Did you or did you not take an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution? What does that actually mean to you? How important to you is your honor to this oath? Sadly, I fear these are nothing but rhetorical questions. Do you there in the 115th precinct,
Do you know and understand the Bill of Rights as it is written? Especially within the context of your daily duties, do you know the Bill of Rights? Do you understand the text and history of the Second Amendment, or for that matter, any of the amendments? Well, if I don't uphold department policy, and if I don't enforce these laws that the state told me I had to, I could lose my job.
Yeah, well, we can't have that. It's far better for you to be the muscle for the government in their flagrant and brutal assaults against the people and their rights. It's much better for you to lock your fellow citizens away for 10 to 20 years.
away from their families, away from their jobs. They lose their jobs. They lose their freedom. They lose their homes and everything they own simply because department policy or an unconstitutional state law took precedence over the Constitution in your ignorant mind. Sadly, too many New Yorkers and many of those in all of the communist-occupied territories
place 100% of the blame on the political class for their loss of essential liberties. But in fact, they would never have lost them had not those that were entrusted with enforcement power forsaken their oath and allowed themselves to be turned against the people, be turned against the free exercise of their rights, be turned literally against the Constitution itself. You did this.
There's no excuse for it. You cannot explain it away. You cannot excuse it away. Yes, I'm saying that you there in New York and in every other communist occupied territory, you don't want to lose your pension and your job and everything else. And in so doing, you've allowed yourself to be subjugated to tyrants and their will, and you have not upheld and defended the Constitution and the people.
Yes, you have evolved into, literally, domestic enemies of the very Constitution that you swore an oath to uphold and defend. And in so doing, you have become the willing servants of tyrants. All while excusing yourself with that sickening phrase, I'm just doing my job, man. Screw your job.
if your job is to oppress your fellow citizens and jail them for the free exercise of their God-given blood-bought rights. We're going to take a brief commercial timeout, let my blood pressure settle a little bit, and we're going to come back and continue this subject matter right after a brief word from the world's best and finest.

I've been kind of not beating up on the law enforcement profession.
More than anything, I'm singling out police officers in all of the communist-occupied territories who think it's okay to enforce unconstitutional laws without question, without even a pause. And that pisses me off. You need to be better than that. You need to have more honor than that. While I'm primarily speaking to cops in this episode, I am more than anything highlighting
NYPD, LAPD, Chicago PD, all of you who infamously have been using the power that you were given by the people to oppress them.
and to squelch the free exercise of many of their rights, even violating their Fourth Amendment right, as we talked about in the first portion of the program. None of you cops in Minnesota spoke out against that or are speaking out against that, that I have seen. If I'm wrong, please send me the articles or whatever proof that I am wrong. Other than that, this is what I'm running with. So let's talk about this gun control crap that is...
Enforced against the people, because all these communist-occupied territories have the exact same laws. Yes, by the way, if you'll notice, all the gun control laws enforced in these communist-occupied territories are all almost word for word and jot for jot and tittle for tittle in line with the UN gun control mandates. Yeah.
Do a little research on that. But let's first talk about, how about this? How about concealed carry? How about concealed carry? What does it take to carry a concealed weapon in NYPD? I'm sorry, in New York City. What does it take? Do you just walk down to the government center and get the permit? Number one, why do you have to get a freaking permit to exercise a right you were born with?
Is it easy to get a permit in New York City? No, not at all. Not at all. We know it's not. And it's intentionally designed to dissuade people from getting the permit and carrying guns. Because, again, to them, gun equals threat. And threat, it doesn't matter if it's a citizen or not. And the gun equals the threat. And the citizen is a criminal if they're a threat. That's how they look at it.
But in most of these states, especially New York, California, Maryland, Massachusetts, Illinois, all of them have the exact same length of hours involved in their licensing approval. You have to pass a course. You have to get 16 hours of classroom instruction and two hours of live fire safety training to get your permit. How do you like that?
Where in the text of the Second Amendment do you read anything about government-issued permits being necessary for citizens to freely exercise their rights? Anywhere? Come on, correct me if I'm wrong. Show me. When those brave Minutemen stood on that Lexington green, did their commander walk up and down the line checking permits before the battle? Not at all. They were there because the British were trying to confiscate their guns.
Yes, you can take whatever you want from that. Not only that, all of these communist-occupied territories have these sensitive location restrictions, which were mostly states that passed them in the wake of the Bruin decision, because they didn't like being held to the Texton history standard that that ruling produced.
So they set about immediately to try to craft something that would nullify the power of that decision. And sadly, the Supreme Court has no testicles, and they have not issued injunctions against lower courts that have willfully violated that during their decision-making processes. But all of these sensitive location restrictions that prohibit carrying firearms in quote-unquote sensitive
places such as government buildings. That's always the first one listed. Have you noticed that even here in Florida, government buildings are listed first? Why? Because as far as the government's concerned, they're more important than you. Their safety is more important than yours too. Oh, and of course, schools and healthcare facilities and
places of worship in all the communist-occupied territories, and public transport where we see videos of horrific crimes, even citizens being set on fire by illegal immigrants, yeah. It's sickening to watch this happen, and these people are required by law, illegal law, to be defenseless victims-in-waiting, and you police officers there are adding your force to this and forcing them to be that way.
You are lending your power to forcing these people to be defenseless victims and waiting. You own this responsibility. The idea behind the Second Amendment was for the people to be able to defend themselves, of course, their families and their communities from all unlawful threats. Now, we know that 98.5% of all mass shootings take place in these government-mandated zones where everyone...
in those zones, except the police, of course, is required by law to be a defenseless victim in waiting. In short, the government claims that it has the right to dictate where you are able to defend yourself and where you're not able to defend yourself. And do they offer any defense for you? Like say, okay, well, you can't carry her, but we'll defend you.
No, no, no, no. They came up with, there was a ruling that said police officers are not required necessarily to defend you. How do you like that? Oh, but you got qualified immunity. Now, even here in Florida, the alleged free state of Florida.
There are too many instances where a parent has been arrested for simply forgetting they had their gun on when they went to pick their child up from school. And a school resource officer would arrest them. Happened to a woman recently. Matter of fact, about two years ago here. Then they have very arduous...
carry permit processes and recertification processes that also are very daunting to overcome if you wish to carry. So a lot of people just simply don't do it because they're more afraid of the state than the criminals. Yeah, the criminal can only either, you know.
It costs them briefly. The government can get in your life for the rest of your freaking life and throw you in jail for the rest of your life if they want to for violating one of their illegal laws. What about permits to purchase? How many of you police officers out there are okay with that? Well, you don't have to go through that. You're a cop. Well, I had to get a certified. Yeah, I know. Shut up. I'm talking about on your daily basis as a citizen when you're not on duty.
How would you like to have to get a permit to purchase a gun? Do you like that? Or do you think you should be exempt from that because you're a cop? Uh-huh. You know, I deal with police officers all the time, literally every day where I work. And some of them I have had to correct.
when they start referring to their fellow citizens as civilians, as if they are military. And I will flat out speak up. I have gotten in more crap over that and tell them you're a civilian too. No, I'm a police officer. No, you're a civilian. You're not military. Unless you're military, you're a civilian.
And us civilians gave you, Mr. Civilian, that badge and that power and that gun. We paid for that gun. We paid for all the equipment you're carrying around your hip. We gave you the power. Mr. Civilian, you're not military. Yeah, you get to carry one everywhere you go. Yeah, your precinct tells you you can carry off duty. Doesn't matter. Yeah, you don't need the permit. Oh, but everybody else does. And if you find somebody don't have a permit, guess where they're going.
It ain't home. Where in the Second Amendment or in any writings of the founders is any of this permit crap mentioned, huh? It ain't. Permits are illegal. Permits are unconstitutional. But yet, you catch somebody with a gun on them, and what's your first question? Where's your permit? Do you have permission to exercise this right from the state? Did the state grant you this?
No? Then you may not freely exercise the right you were born with without the state's permission card. What about safe storage laws that we referenced earlier in the program? You know, require your firearms to be stored in a safe or a locked container or rendered inoperable with a gun-locking device or something whenever they're not in, quote, the immediate use of the owner. My guns are always in use.
part of my repertoire of personal defense and home defense. They're always in use. Just because they're not in my hand doesn't mean they're not in use. When I have them on my holster, on my person, they are in use. Yeah, the safe storage crap. One more time, just to reference the earlier part of the program. You police officers okay with that?
Willfully violating the Fourth Amendment? Well, the law says I can't. I don't care what the law said you could. The Supreme Law said you may not. So who the blippity-blank are you to say, well, I'm going to defer to a lesser law? And that says I can do it, so I'm going to do it. Do you understand what you're doing? You are willfully accepting power that was not granted to you by the people. You are taking power.
that the state took from the people and gave to you, and you're turning it back around on the people. And you call yourself honorable? You think you're a hero, huh? You think it's okay to circumvent any of the amendments? Mm-hmm. I've seen some videos many times of...
People being pulled over and the police officer will ask, well, where are you coming from? And he says, I don't answer questions. I'm sorry. What do you mean you don't answer questions? Well, it means I don't answer questions. I'm not required to. Well, you're required to answer my questions. I'm doing an investigation. Well, we're not required to help you investigate us. Where'd you get that crap from? Well, you're going to answer my questions. Nope. I'm exercising my Fifth Amendment right to remain silent. Well, you better answer my questions. I'm going to arrest you.
Well, you'd better not do that. You'll lose your qualified immunity. You can't willfully violate someone's rights. Matter of fact, you could go to prison for that, federally speaking. 18 USC 242. Look it up. Yeah. And they got background checks. Background checks. I'm trying to be calm here. The NICS system has a...
up to a 97% and some have claimed 99% failure rate when it comes to identifying someone who's prohibited. Yeah, how do you like that? I deal with this all the time, every time too. Every day, well, not every day, but every week at least, we run a background check that comes back denied and the person standing in front of me is a police officer. Simply because his name
or a social security number approximated the name of somebody else who was arrested for disturbing peace back in 1971 or whatever. It's ridiculous, some of the crap we run across. And they have to go through an appeals process with the state, the state who used a system that was faulty and said, you can't have this, and you've got to fight the state just to purchase the freaking gun. Background checks, huh?
Oh, universal background checks, too. Yeah, there needs to be a background check on every gun sale. What they mean is, you citizens, if you sell a gun to another citizen, you have to get a background check on that person. Really? Okay. Do you really think that Ray Ray and Ice Pick are running background checks on their homies when they come to buy a piece off of them? You really think that's happening?
How successful do you really suppose these background check laws to be? Especially with a 97% failure rate. Yeah. What about ghost gun bans? Oh, yeah, ghost guns. Oh, we hear it all the time.
Those ghost gun bans, they prohibit you from selling a homemade gun. Well, people made their own guns back in colonial times. They are absolutely allowed to do it according to the supreme law. They built cannons. They also would build booby traps and things like that to protect their property. But these ghost gun bans, they prohibit the possession or the sale of these unserialized firearms or even the components.
that are used to manufacture them but i want to tell you something serialization was instituted for one reason and one reason only government control over the firearms industry how many times you heard about somebody being arrested for having a gun with no serial number or having an altered serial number or a an obliterated
serial number. That's it. You modified the surface of your firearm and that is somehow a felony. Why? Well, because you are taking some of the government's power. They cannot figure out where that gun came from as if they really have to, right? No, and they don't like that. You don't take power from the government. They take power from you.
What about ERPOs, red flag laws, all this other crap? These things that allow a cop or a family member or a school official or people like a doctor to petition a court to remove your firearms because they say, I believe he's a danger to himself and others. How would any of you police officers like for one of these constitutional abominations to be served up on you? Yeah, no crime.
No proof of a crime, no criminal charges, no due process. Due process comes before the confiscation, by the way. People with guns and badges just show up at your door whenever they want and tell you that they're taking your guns because they got a piece of paper that says, gives them the right and the authority to take your guns. No, you blippity blank don't have that authority.
Not unless you have gone through all due processes of proving to me and everybody else that I am indeed a danger to myself and others. You don't get to take somebody else's speculation as a grand jury indictment and say, we're coming to disarm you based on one or two person's personal testimony. Oh, we're not charging you with a crime. Don't worry about that.
Well, if you're not charging me with a crime, you're not getting my guns. Okay, I'm going to make this statement loud and clear. I want every cop in the state of Florida to hear me. If you ever try to serve me with an ERPO, number one, I'm not going to answer the door to you. If you try to kick my door in and you don't have a warrant that expressly grants you entry into my home,
I have every right to defend myself, my family, and my home with whatever force you dictate to be necessary. Play it back as many times as you want. Rewind it. Replay it. This is my statement. This is my battle line. This is my line in the freaking sand. Unless you have charged me with a crime, unless you have presented evidence that I am dangerous,
You don't get my guns unless you get them bullets first. Royce, come on, man. You're talking about shooting cops. I am talking about doing what they should be doing, and that is upholding and defending the constability blanking tuition. Feel free to convince me that the founders would have allowed this trash. They most certainly would not have. And the proof of that...
was those men that stood on that Lexington Green that day in defiance of the mightiest army and government in the world that had come to take their guns. They came to confiscate the guns of the colonists, and the colonists said, ain't gonna happen. Okay, hear me one more time, police officers across the state of Florida. My home, the threshold of my door.
is my Lexington green. You want to play it back as many times as you need to. That is my line in the sand. Then, of course, we have magazine capacity laws that tell you can't hold more than 10 rounds in your magazine. All right, you police officers, why are you okay with your fellow citizens and every member of your family being forbidden from owning what you carry on a daily basis?
You carry 17 round mags in your pistols, you carry 30 round mags in your carbines, but you tell us we can't have that. Why? And who are you to enforce this but a domestic enemy of the Constitution? Oh, well, come on, Royce, we're not domestic enemies of the... You!
are using your authority to enforce constitutionally illegal laws. How in the hell does that not make you a domestic enemy? And of course, the granddaddy of them all, assault weapons bans and firearm registration. Why do all you cops in those communist occupied territories think it's okay for you to own those weapons but not your fellow citizens?
Are you cut from a higher moral fabric than the rest of us? Why do you so gleefully and so readily pounce on citizens who have been found with them and treat them as if they are godless, immoral criminals? You are the immoral ones because you are enforcing illegal laws. Why do you not advocate for your citizens, your fellow citizens, to own these guns?
Huh? Why? When are you going to let your testicles drop? When are you going to grow a spine and some guts? How many of you have ever arrested somebody for having a non-registered firearm? Yeah, especially there in New York, especially in Chicago. Oh, how many? Have you ever arrested somebody because the gun they had was unregistered? Then you're violating the law, the supreme law. How many of your fellow citizens...
Have you arrested for that? How about the homeowner in New York who defended himself against a home invader, but then you arrested him because the gun he used to defend himself and his family was inherited from his father, but he had failed to register it in his name. And now he's serving time.
in prison with hardened criminals. You feel good about yourselves doing crap like that? You think you're really heroes? You think you're keeping your state safe? You think you're keeping your precinct safe? You used your power to attack the rights of a man. Did an innocent taxpayer really deserve to be manacled and marched out of his home in front of his terrified family?
processed into your hellish jail system, and processed through your injustice system that punishes good people and lets off the criminals, and then remanded him to prison for however many years. Did he deserve that? Why? He was within the confines of his constitutional liberties, and you took them away.
You took away a gun that his family might have been able to defend themselves with, too. How about the citizen that recently defended himself against a mugger on the street, only to be arrested and charged and convicted not for defending himself with a gun, but because the gun was unregistered? Oh, what a hideous, horrible, violent crime of not registering your guns.
How about you NYPD boys who arrested Dexter Taylor? He would have never had to go to prison. He's serving 10 years in prison. He would have never had to receive that vile, treasonous tongue lashing from that angry tyrant judge who, from the bench, shouted at him and his counsel, don't you bring that Second Amendment into this courtroom. It doesn't exist here.
Yes, lady, it most certainly blippity-blankin does exist there and in every square inch of real estate within the United States. Yet, not a single cop involved uttered a peep on behalf of the peaceable citizen sitting before them, a man with no record, a hardworking taxpayer who is now a ward of the state because he had the audacity to exercise a right he was born with. I'm just doing my job, man. Don't you ever, ever.
Use that excuse directly to me. I will give you, at a minimum, the worst tongue-beating, tongue-lashing you ever had. I will bless you up one side and down another. You and your fellow New Yorkers are facing imminent terror attacks, and the people you've helped disarm are now sitting ducks. Thanks to you! Were they armed, they might be able to join you in battling the Islamofascist swine when they ignite their jihad.
against your city and state, but no, you were just doing your job. And now untold numbers of your fellow citizens are going to suffer and die because you lent your power that they gave you against them. This goes for all of you cops and all the other communist-occupied territories. You're just as guilty and constitutionally worthless.
As far as I'm concerned, you're unfit to wear a badge unless you are acutely familiar with the Constitution. You're taking an oath to uphold and defend it. You need to know it. Because truth be told, had law enforcement continued to honor their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution,
The NFA, the GCA, and all the other 20,000-plus anti-rights gun control laws enforced today would have withered and died on the vine without enforcement. And there never would have been a Ruby Ridge. There never would have been a Waco. There would be no Patrick Adamiak serving 20 years in prison for committing literally no crimes. There would be no Dexter Taylor. Excuse me.
arrested for nonsensical, unconstitutional charges, and there would not be a widow named Mrs. Brian Malinowski. He'd still be alive today. But no, many people in law enforcement, the overwhelming majority of them, began to enforce illegal laws. Well, I've got to enforce it. It's my job. No, it is not your job. It is your job, primarily, first and foremost.
to uphold and defend the Constitution. That's what you took an oath to uphold. You didn't swear an oath to write speeding tickets. You didn't swear an oath to uphold. You didn't swear an oath to arrest jaywalkers. You didn't arrest people. You didn't swear an oath to write, you know, parking tickets and crap like that. You swore an oath to uphold and defend the supreme law.
And then, immediately, upon donning your uniform, you begin to accept the indoctrination of your department over and above that. You are responsible. Just as it's no excuse for any citizen to be ignorant of the law, it is no excuse for any cop, any public official, any legislator, too, any judge, to be ignorant of the supreme law.
If you're a cop and you arrest someone for a gun control violation, you are an oath breaker and you have no honor and you have sullied your profession and the sacrifices of all the people who died to preserve the rights of the people here in this country in so doing. Oh, but you're a hero. You're a man of honor. You want to be lauded as such.
You want to be looked upon as being a protector of the people when you want to even protect their rights. Yeah. Stay in contact with your reps. Stay in contact with your local police for that matter. See what you can do about educating them constitutionally if there's an issue in your local departments. Be proactive. That's the best thing you can do.
Being proactive also includes carrying a firearm and extra magazines and plenty of ammunition to fight your way home, trauma supplies, all those things you've heard me talk about on this program before. And remember, if you get into the crap and you have to defend yourself with a firearm, never forget, incoming rounds always have the right of way. Voice out.
