THE FIFTH AND FINAL "TRENDLINE POSTER"
2010-11-15

        The last "Trendline" poster was released in mid-November. We met our goal of having all five Trendline posters and text online following the November, 2010 election. The schedule was influenced by concern that a "lame duck" Congress could enact a major gun-control law while it still held a majority in both houses of Congress. Arizona Gun Talk's next poster and text will be based on federal actions during the potentially dangerous lame duck congressional session. This website has several contingency posters already in finished form.

        A graphic called "TRENDLINE - NULLIFICATION AND ARMED DEFENSE" was posted on 15 November. The poster text further develops the discussion of nullification begun in Poster 18. It examines the concept of nullification in terms of constitutionality and enforcement. The text indicates that nullifying federal firearms laws is unwise unless a State Defense Force capable of enforcing nullification is available. Further, the text postulates that a "socialist-style" firearms confiscation law would be met with armed resistance. It indicates that such resistance is justified by natural law, revolutionary war history, the Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, and statements by the country’s founders.
