If They want to ban guns, how about they go about repealing and replacing the Second Amendment. Anything else is an infringement upon the Second Amendment.
Get you a gun.
Fork the state.
Id say I have plenty already but one can never have too many and if someone comes calling for them, I have none.
If they can’t remove 30 million illegal aliens, there is no way they can remove 400 million guns.
It's all about feelings and how to channel those into fear.
Good point.
Here’s the problem in this sentence:
“If youre gonna engage in an honest and productive debate...”
You can’t debate a 50 IQ leftist. They don’t debate or think; they feel. Once that is understood, you can debate them on their emotional level, which includes:
1. Threats of violence.
2. Violence.
3. Death.
President Reagan understood that and used it to great advantage to collapse the former Soviet Union.
I’ve been all over Facebook arguing and attempting to discuss the issues and they have nothing but cheap emotionalism to argue with. They simply want the Government to DO SOMETHING! ANYTHING! to make them feel safe.
They have no concept of Unintended Consequences of such actions.
But it looks black!
“Ive been all over Facebook arguing and attempting to discuss the issues and they have nothing but cheap emotionalism to argue with.”
We avoid enemy territory like Facebook and engage these SJWs (Social Justice Wimps) on the street and in bars. They really wimp out and cry for their mommies when confronted.
Now, that may not be your cup of tea but at least consider it.
We engaged a pack of 50 IQ affirmative action wimps at one of our Tea party meetings. We chased them off the public square, and they ducked into a building and locked the door. They bawled like babies for the cops to come rescue them. The cops, laughing their butts off, escorted the wimps to their cars.
Heh, heh, the Founders made amending the Constitution an extremely difficult process. And there are only two ways to repeal an Amendment, which is the only way to create a new one.
What’s scary is an approaching tsunami of GVRO’s where anyone with a grudge against a gun owner can denounce him to the po-po who then seize his guns. The only added ingredient is a judge’s order. Otherwise, this is KGB knock on door stuff.
Exactly right. But you really have to watch out for the black booted men of the very local groups that have agreed to be part of the Emergency Management of your town. They have had all the NIMS training, and they know exactly where you live. Sigh
I think I have not one “old” friend who was a “feelie” person left. It is a shame but I cannot tolerate that kind of fuzzy lazy inconsiderate (can’t consider anything beyond the last tear) thinking when it comes to important issues.
I call the AR-15 the perfect Girl Gun. (Yes I know it is a rifle, but I needed the G).
If someone breaks into my house, I want my wife armed with something that looks very scary! Secondly, it has very little recoil. Third, it has a large magazine. My wife under stress is bound to miss a few times. Also, the perp may not be alone.
Oh I had a good one a few days ago. One guy down the road told me that we dont need these types of firearms. He asked me why does anyone need them-he is a flaming liberal. I told him people need them because of people like him.
Then he went on the rant about how these firearms kill. I told him that these firearms cant hold a candle to the death rate of abortion which is 100%.
I walked away from him and left his ass out in the middle of the desert sputtering.
Likewise on Twitter. Trying to have sensible debates with those who start out promising, but they fast turn to crass insults and won’t take a stand on anything. Like they think legislators can just snap fingers and guns will disappear completely, and think you’re a deranged simpleton for not agreeing.
Hence wars. They’ll force the issue with violence, and be surprised when their targets fight back. Debate will be impossible (practically is now), one side or other will simply win thru attention or subjugation.
[Sigh]
The number of gun in the US is likely significantly higher than that. I don’t think anybody has a good idea of how many there are in the first place.
