Struggling presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke said he would use the criminal code to back up his proposal of confiscating AR-15s from law-abiding Americans.The former Texas congressman elaborated on his policy in a CBS News interview:"If we're able to pass mandatory buybacks and I'm able to sign that into law, then I fully expect our fellow Americans to turn in their AR-15s and their AK-47s."O'Rourke continued, adding that there would be criminal consequences if people refused to give up their weapons:

He is insane, no other word for it. He couldn’t get elected as anything.

Robert Francis is taking direction right out of the communist manifesto. Make all good men into criminals as a way to control them.

The only thing that allows evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing.

I will not let Robert Francis control me by criminalizing everything.

He couldn’t get elected as anything.

He came close in Texas in 2018. Too damn close! The left is just gradually wearing down the resistance of the country with each passing decade and generation. Electing Obama just sped up the process.

Beto O’Rourke is not addressing the 2nd Amendment in his proposal. He could never pull this off. He would be stopped in his tracks by the 2nd Amendment. He is just blowing wind, just trying to get elected.

This guy just doesn’t know when to put down the shovel.

A lot of these gun owners are law abiding veterans. I don’t think that local police will try and take the guns. I doubt that a federalize National Guard will do it. I have my doubts if federal troops will do it.

Eat excrement and expire.

please.

Well for him to even get on the ballot to run for president is like a snowball surviving in the Saudi desert.

[Lurkinanloomin]

But he doesn’t expect fraudulently documented foreigners to respect and obey our laws.......

VP

[SkyDancer]

With whom?

[Lurkinanloomin]

Allowing Obama to usurp the office in violation of the Constitution just sped up the process.

[Real Cynic No More]

Hmm. Has this lunatic ever heard of bump stocks and the vast number of those that were turned in?

[max americana]

He’s just being a prick. He knows he never had a chance and just showing what an insane moron he really is. Just pathetic really..

That's exactly what Beto is doing! He's moving the Overton window to get people conditioned on turning in their guns for a "buyback."

Beto has no chance, so he is the DNC's Kamikaze pilot. But make no mistake, this will be part of the Dems' platform within the next 2 elections.

“Do you really think we want those laws observed?" Said Dr. Ferris. We want them broken. You better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against - then you'll know this is not the age for beautiful gestures. We're after power and we mean it. You fellows were pikers, but we know the real trick and you'd better get wise to it. There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted and you create a nation of law-breakers - and then you cash in on guilt. Now, that's the system Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with." Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged, Part 2, Chapter 3, Page 404
