RKBA in an Obama administration

The people have spoken and we have a new president-elect. Although our right to keep and bear arms was rarely mentioned outside of his campaign website, those of us who deeply value the U.S. Constitution recognize that we are in a never-ending battle to retain and regain our rights.

An interesting twist on the new Chief Executive is his advocacy for a "Civilian Security Force" that is "just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded" as the military. View the speech where he rolled out his idea for such a body here:

What role might the RKBA community have in such a body? We will have to wait and see, since I find no evidence of any details being unveiled. What I do know is that, with a democratic sweep of the White House and both houses of congress, we are likely to see a wave of proposed gun-ban legislation.

This is no time to rest--our freedom and liberty are always under attack.
