- 0:33Well, welcome to the live sheep podcast.
- 0:34My name is Jeff doddle and I've been a licensed farm dealer for the last 14 years.
- 0:39And in this podcast, we talk about all things related to the second amendment, as well as what other topics would be going on in our today theater or a sports story or something going on in my personal life.
- 0:50So, welcome.
- 0:50Welcome, welcome.
- 0:51So what was it I just read to you?
- 0:53Well, what I just read was a proposed new, a second amendment that was proposed by a Mary Anne Frank.
- 1:00And she is a law professor at the university of Miami school of law.
- 1:06And she has, she wrote an article where she proposed a new first amendment and a new second amendment.
- 1:12I'm not going to talk so much about the first amendment, the purpose of doing the first amendment was she, she wanted to further identify the separation of church and state in her article.
- 1:22She says as legal tech scope, neither of the two amendments mean the person's second.
- 1:26Is a model of clarity or precision most important, both are deeply flawed.
- 1:32And so I look at that and I'm like, you know, he or she is criticizing a document that has stood the test of time for over 200 years in our founding fathers who put together the greatest country of the world and she's calling it deeply flawed.
- 1:46And her proposed second amendment.
- 1:49The purpose of it is that she, she felt that the second amendment idiosyncratic and Anna stick focus on malicious and arms degrades the concept of self defense, the right to safeguard one's life should not be conflated with or reduced to the right to use a weapon, especially with, and that is so much more likely to inflict injury and death to avoid it far better.
- 2:11Would it be.
- 2:12Be an amendment that guarantees a meaningful right to bodily autonomy and obligates government to implement reasonable measures, to protect public health and safety.
- 2:21So let's kind of break this down just a little bit.
- 2:24I've got several thoughts on this first.
- 2:26It states.
- 2:27All people have the right to, to bodily autonomy, consistent with the right other people to the same.
- 2:33So I read that to say, as long as our rights are equal, it's, it's, it's fine.
- 2:39Meaning the government can come in and, and remove all of our rights equally.
- 2:44And that would be fine.
- 2:46She says that it's including the right to defend themselves against unlawful force.
- 2:52Well, oh, makes the, the quote, unquote, the laws.
- 2:56The government.
- 2:57So again, you go back into history and you look at where are, or what was going on and what our founding fathers had experienced in their time.
- 3:08What their biggest concern was, was the king of England confiscating all of their weapons or any higher authority coming in and, and, and moving your right to defend yourself.
- 3:21That's how that was where the first shots of the revolutionary war were found.
- 3:25The British had come in and who were marching to go to a barn and lectins in Concorde to.
- 3:31Confiscate a, a cache of weapons that the colonists had had been accumulating.
- 3:37And just the collection of farmers in the townsfolk gathered and said, no, you are not taking it.
- 3:45And thus, the first shots were fired in the revolutionary war.
- 3:50So when she talks about defend themselves against unlawful force, then the government makes the laws.
- 3:56So they determine what's lawful in law unlawful.
- 3:59So they then can again, remove our right to, to have the, the, these weapons or the move, the right to defend ourselves.
- 4:07They can determine that this was a lawful force.
- 4:10And, and then this next line in the right of self-determination and reproductive matters, I'm not sure why we are inserting abortion into the second amendment.
- 4:22Right.
- 4:24I don't want to get into that, that the whole other rabbit trail that we can go down, but she's saying that we all have a right of self-determination in reproduct matters that we can determine what is right for our bodies essentially.
- 4:36And reproductive matters.
- 4:37And putting this in, in any amendment does not solve the actual core of the argument.
- 4:43And the core of the argument is one side greatly.
- 4:47Disagrees with the other, in terms of what is considered a human, a person.
- 4:53The left says that you are nothing until you were actually are outside of the, of the mother's body.
- 5:01And even after that point, you still aren't nothing.
- 5:03They, they have cases where like, even at post birth, they may abort the baby and the right and the conservatives.
- 5:11So, you know, you become a person with rights under the constitution.
- 5:16At conception.
- 5:17But anyway, then it says here the government shall take reasonable measures to protect the health and safety of the public as a whole.
- 5:24And maybe this might be my biggest issue with this is that the bill of rights came into place because some of the founders had concerns that we were not properly limiting the ability of.
- 5:36Of a government.
- 5:37And so they said, we, we, we need to put some things in there that they can't do.
- 5:42And in here in this.
- 5:43And so the bill of rights, the first 10 amendments are really what the government.
- 5:48They can't take away our freedom of speech, our right to assemble our right to bear arms shall not be in fringed here.
- 5:58We're talking about the government issuing again, what can and cannot be done and that they're going to be responsible for protecting our health and safety.
- 6:07And I do not know.
- 6:08The government solely responsible for protecting my health and safety.
- 6:13We have seen that through COVID that they do not do a good job of protecting health and safety of the public as a whole.
- 6:22They are have many other interests in art in play besides.
- 6:27Protecting what our health and safety concerns are.
- 6:30You know, this is where we're at this.
- 6:32I think, you know, there nothing will ever become of this, but I think it's interesting that, you know, again, the left, is it constantly wanting to rewrite the constitution and the right beliefs that the constitution is a document that stands the test of time.
- 6:47Our founding fathers had great wisdom and when they wrote it and things in there that are vague and ambiguous, R R that for purpose, they didn't want to specifically limit that the constitution based on the times.
- 7:04And so there is some interpretation, but they, they provided plenty of writings in terms of what they believe, what their assertions and beliefs were at that time.
- 7:13And so.
- 7:15I don't believe rewriting the second amendment, anything that needs to be done.
- 7:18I think it is a perfectly well-written amendment.
- 7:21And in the core of it is that our right to bear arms shall not be in French.
- 7:27And I believe the left until they can actually infringe upon our second amendment.
- 7:32Right.
- 7:33They will not rest.
- 7:34And so we have to continue to protect that second amendment.
- 7:37Fight for it.
- 7:38Now I had written while back last year, my, my revised preamble based on the on Joe Biden being in power and what, how they, how I foresee that they saw it and my preamble to the constitution.
- 7:52We, the government of the United States.
- 7:55In order to control the people redefined justice, ensure domestic obedience provide for our own security promote the general growth.
- 8:02The government insecure, the control do ordain and destroy this constitution of the United States of America.
- 8:09So again, it's tongue in cheek satire.
- 8:12I don't propose that I don't propose this new first and the second amendment, but you know, if it's given me an idea for an interesting project that I'm, I may or may not attempt, and that is to rewrite the.
- 8:23Constitution and at least the first 10 amendments, based on the way the left sees it sees our country and how they have already professed that they believe that things should be interpreted.
- 8:34But more.
- 8:35Come on that.
- 8:36We'll see.
- 8:37I thank you for listening again.
- 8:39Continue to fight for the second amendment because there are people out there that just like this Mary.
- 8:45She, she wants to limit your ability to bear arms.
- 8:49She wants to infringe on that ability.
- 8:51So Hey, have a great weekend wherever you're listening to this and take care and I will talk to you later.
