Dems adopt new tactic for gun confiscation

New York State Sen. Daniel Squadron, D-Manhattan, has a plan to snare conservatives into coughing up their gun rights.

Democrats have come up with a creative way of selectively confiscating guns from certain residents, and several Second Amendment watchdogs say the strategy could soon be coming to a state near you.

A state legislator from Manhattan has introduced a bill that would nullify gun rights from those convicted of hate crimes, even those involving nonviolent, misdemeanor offenses.

If successful, New York would become the seventh state to implement such a law.

The FBI defines a hate crime as a “criminal offense against a person or property motivated in whole or in part by an offender’s bias against a race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, ethnicity, gender, or gender identity.”

But, as Guns America News and Reviews reminds New Yorkers, the FBI makes it clear that “hate itself is not a crime” and that the agency is “mindful of protecting freedom of speech and other civil liberties.”

Hmmm. Would this one be ripe for the SCOTUS to take up?

SCOTUS needs to deal with that other gun law fiasco that was just passed.

They violate the First, calling speech a hate crime.

Then violate the Second, saying that prohibits guns.

Better get ready for soldiers in your home.

So it begins - get ready for the Balkinization of America. Human migration out of the coastal cities and oppressive states to the freedom-loving states. CWIII can’t be far behind.

Obama has made that something you can’t take for granted, just as the police in some jurisdictions have become tools of the left.

For the moment. Expect some future Dem administration to require the military to ONLY allow recruitment of Dems.

The left is attempting to criminalize everything they are against.

This is part of the ongoing effort to legislate from the bench and the shadow government.

They are very close to doing so.

It will make no difference whether they are in power or not anymore.

“A state legislator from Manhattan has introduced a bill that would nullify gun rights from those convicted of hate crimes, even those involving nonviolent, misdemeanor offenses”. So no NY Democrats will have guns?

next move: Christian churches are hate groups
next: church members are guilty of a hate conspiracy
next: Christians lose their guns

This hate crime BS is just a means to an evil end. It needs to stop now

You must not work with the military and understand what has happened in the last 100 days. Lefty tools have been purged.

I don’t because these guys have had the course. Here is a little hint for you. They basically run the country now and are going to have total control.
