I love South Dakota.

With the legal fight over President Obama's individual mandate ongoing, even though such a mandate is unquestionably unconstitutional to anyone who has actually read the document, five South Dakota lawmakers have decided to use their newfound powers within the U.S. Constitution to mandate all residents in the state to purchase a firearm.

However, I must inform all who read this that the lawmakers are only proposing this law to make the point that the federal government has no right to mandate a citizen to purchase any product under the Constitution. Though, I am quite sure that most residents of South Dakota already have a firearm, or two.

Which is why I absolutely love it!

If the Constitution really does give government the right to mandate its citizen's to purchase a product, then the Obama Administration will be quick to side with South Dakota's heroic effort. Especially since Americans actually have the right to a firearm, and not a health insurance policy.

But sadly, that will never happen. Because the Supreme Court will eventually declare that President Obama's treasured "individual mandate" is absolutely unconstitutional, and that South Dakota lawmakers cannot in a million years mandate universal gun ownership. Hooray for self governance!! Hooray for liberty!!
