Spitting on the Memory

re: HB600 & spitting on the memory of the Deacons for Defense & Justice

Dear Rep. Rogers,

I note with interest that you are a co-sponsor of Patricia Todd's HB 600, requiring, among other things, the registration of all semi-automatic firearms in the state of Alabama. Now I know that this bill has about as much chance of passage as the Devil handing out Perrier-filled side-by-side refrigerators with ice makers to the denizens of Hell.

Still, for the purpose of satisfying my curiosity if nothing else, can you possibly explain to me why YOU have signed onto this unconstitutional folly? I mean, Todd, I understand. She's a white liberal and therefore, as a typical representative of her species, quite clueless. But you're African American. Are you so unfamiliar with your own history? Have you never heard of the Deacons for Defense and Justice? What do you suppose they would say about registering the firearms they used to defend MLK, James Farmer and others against the Klan with the Klan-dominated government at the time?

Do you suppose that what you now understand as "benign government" will always remain on your side? To think so would be in spite of all logic and human experience.

The Founders understood that you should never pass a law that you weren't willing to see enforced by your own worst enemy. And private firearms registration is ALWAYS the precursor to confiscation, which is, in turn, the predicate for oppression and genocide.

So tell me, why on earth did you sign onto this bill? I'd like to know. And I'll bet there is another bunch of brave Americans who would like to know too. Somewhere, those Deacons for Defense and Justice who have crossed over to their reward are frowning at the spittle with which you have encrusted their sacrifice and struggle. What a great way to treat a precious inheritance. Shame on you.
