Senate Resolution 1993

Eric Peters, writing in The American Spectator, brings to our attention Hillary Clinton’s latest atrocity, co-sponsored by John Warner, Senate Resolution 1993.  Peters’ piece, entitled Buckle Up for Hillary, bitch slaps Hillary and Warner for attempting to constrict your personal responsibility with “primary enforcement,” nationally, regarding seatbelt use.  From Peters’ article.

Hillary Clinton wants you to buckle up for safety—and she’s ready to crack her whip to make sure that you do. Along with co-sponsoring Virginia Republican Sen. John Warner, Sen. Clinton is pushing strong-arm federal legislation, Senate Resolution 1993, that would all but require every state in the country to pass “primary enforcement” seat belt laws.

Primary enforcement means the police can screech out of alleyways, turn on their sirens and pull you over, hands on their guns, spotlight in your face—simply for failing to wear your seat belt. (Primary enforcement also gives police officers legal pretext to demand that you produce ID, answer questions—and enables them to give you and your vehicle a thorough “once over”—again, solely for failing to buckle up.)

Yep, this is the land of the free and home of the brave.

  1. But don’t you know, John, that they are just trying to protect you from yourself. They know better than you. You should think of it as tough love and be grateful . . . yeah, and you should also like an ice pick slowly pushed into your cranium.
