I think any leftist pol who thinks they can snatch 500 million guns is on crack : )
I trust leftists understand that threatened confiscation is a declaration of civil war 2.0.
Never let a good crisis go to waste.
When socialists are about to lose power, it’s what they do to retain it. Manufacture crisis and capitalize on it.
See the history of socialism for details.
If you’ve purchased in the last 20 or 30 or however many years they’re registered because BATF isn’t destroying the records turned in to them by FFLs going out of business or upgrading to electronic records.
If ever again Americans are foolish enough to give them Congress and the White House at the same time, gun control legislation is coming.
Low SAFE Act numbers hint at non-compliance in NY
in part because ....
Gun Rights Advocates Have A Devastating New Argument Against Gun Control. Here It Is.
and campaigning on gun control isn't working out so well ....
Did gun control cost McAuliffe and Democrats the Virginia election?
The answer to the above question is "yes".
I can't connect the dots ... why Dems would continue to do things that don't work and then lose elections by either doing it or talking about it. The only thing I can think of is they are so out of touch with reality that they think eventually, if they SAY it's so, it WILL somehow be the reality. It's worked in the past with a lot of their other lies (except the Repubs are now taking away an effective weapon - the media). Eventually, if they tell enough lies, it's like the little boy who cried 'wolf' ... nobody believes them ... in the case of Obama, he's become Baghdad Barack. Hilly even shows up in the polls (words that describe) as a liar. Maybe they really are trying to light a fire under their lethargic base ..... it's just backfired and the Republican base is red-lining on the gun issue and has gone nuclear.
This is not new. Libtards always get around to registration and confiscation at some point. Its a cycle. They are real good at talking about it but pretty crappy at trying to do it. :-)
You forgot option #6: They believe that they have the 2016 election in the bag already via skewed demographics, fraud, etc., and no longer feel the need to hide their agenda. In fact, they revel in taunting rubbing their enemies noses in it.
I don’t know. You lost me at the end. Perhaps you can summarize your conclusion in a single paragraph...
Also, having run roughshod over the American public on so much for the last eight years, demanding everything no longer looks so impossible.
I see dead socialists walking.
If they want to lose then it’s because they know they have made things so bad that no matter what the next guy/gal does it will be too late and the media will do 2-4 years of blame on the newbies to get power back in an even further lurch that will send us down the bunny path.
I don’t doubt they are isolated (just like the GOPE) in their thoughts - ‘out amongst the english’ ain’t them....they’re holed up in DC and 2-3 major cities and the colleges/universities. I just don’t think that’s why they are coming out proclaiming this now. They’ve never done that before. So I think unfortunately it’s the fact they know things are “that bad”. Which would explain why even some media types like Ted K (?) I was reading yesterday are starting to talk about prepping for bad things.
Cloward Piven and Alinksy. Their INTENT is to foment civil disputes by un-legislated bureaucratic action (ie. regulatory confiscation or exec. order registration and transaction recordkeeping for private sales).
The ramping up of civil disturbances and revolt then creates the need for the federalized police state without due process or jurisdiction. Clamor from the great masses of the duped and dopiers... the TV generation and the iphone “lemmings”.
They have no idea the response they are going to and are now getting. But, it could still happened when we are governed by judges and not by the consent of ourselves. Key element to this— will there be enough of the “converted” power loving police to accomplish this? Answer: No. Without going into strategic and tactical realities of trying to imprison or shoot everyone.
Remember— the goal of the bolshies was to create enough laws that EVERYONE is breaking the law and subject to... punishment and subjugation.
Why? Because they can’t hide their obvious intentions anymore and they can’t restrain their enthusiasm for this non-starter.
I think they know things are going to go to he’ll real soon, both in the economy and in foreign affairs, and they would rather a Republican got blamed for what’s coming.
