1. My assumption is they would attempt to use some of the “catch all” language in the end of Title II of the NFA/Gun Control Act.

2. Someone needs to point out there are about 350 deaths per year from long guns, of which, probably 30 or 40 are from rifles with high-capacity magazines.

Someone, anyone, should be quoting the the FBI statistics on how many weapons are used every year to stop the bad guys. I read here and other sites about a citizen stopping a home invasion every day. Who on our side ever discusses those stats?

Our side talks about the 2nd Amendment, but rarely points out how many innocent decent citizens protect themselves on a daily basis. The last FBI stats I read showed many more defending themselves with weapons in one year than all the horrific mass shootings, not to mention the gangsters in Chicago (530 deaths in 2012), Detroit, Philly, et al.

Come get my simple home-defense weapons, Biden/Bambi. Go for it. Just try an Executive Order and see if anyone obeys your totalitarian directives. This is NOT 1936 Germany. We are a different culture.
