I got an email today from the Yakima County Republicans.  I haven’t had a chance to verify it yet but it seems legit and in it, the County Republicans resolve to stand strong on behalf of the second amendment.  See if you agree.

Resolution To Affirm Our Unalienable Right To Bear Arms
WHEREAS The Constitution of the United States is a legal document, and;
WHEREAS terms in a legal document carry a consistent definition throughout,
and;
WHEREAS the term “The People” in our Constitution has identical meaning in the
Preamble, the 1st Amendment, 2nd Amendment, 4th Amendment, 9th Amendment
and 10th Amendment, and;
WHEREAS the right to keep and bear arms to hunt for subsistence or sport, and
the right to keep and bear arms to defend one’s life and property are Natural
Rights, existing prior to the Constitution, and affirmed and guaranteed by the Bill
of Rights in its 9th Amendment, and;
WHEREAS the individual right to keep and bear arms for the purpose of defending
ourselves from any government who might usurp any of our rights is a Natural
Right existing prior to the Constitution, and affirmed and guaranteed by the Bill of
Rights in its 2nd Amendment, and;
WHEREAS the Washington State Constitution states “The right of the individual
citizen to bear arms in defense of himself, or the state, shall not be impaired”,
and;
WHEREAS any infringement or impairment of these rights is an offense to our
unalienable right of Liberty, and is an assault on rights “endowed by our Creator”,
all of which are affirmed and guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States
and the Constitution of the State of Washington, and;
WHEREAS, any holder of public office who would infringe upon these rights or
who votes to fund any agency whose actions infringe upon or impair these rights
subverts our Constitution and violates their oath of office;
THEREFORE, be it RESOLVED that:
The Yakima County Republican Party shall refuse to support and may condemn,
sanction, organize a recall of and/or recruit opposition to, any holder of public
office or any candidate for public office in any branch or at any level of
government who the Board finds has taken any action to further infringe, impair,
subvert or usurp our Natural and Constitutional right to keep and bear arms,
regardless of their party affiliation.
