Its funny. I know multiple people who own AR15s Not one of the rifles has ever snuck out of the house and gone on a killing spree while the owner wasnt looking. Weird..
Actually the goal is to ban all private ownership of firearms. A step at a time.
First, if i hear the phrase “rising star in the Democratic party” one more time I’m gonna throw up. Second, like most lib gun haters, when it comes to weapons I suspect he doesn’t know the barrel from the butt.
Further, I'll bet he has his own personal armed bodyguard.
I'd even wager he probably owns a gun himself.
Even if they could somehow eliminate all semi-auto weapons, there are still millions of scoped deer rifles out there that can drop a person at a quarter-mile.
How big of a security perimeter do they think they can maintain, indefinitely?
If gun owners voted in a block against libs, we wouldn’t be talking about this, but they don’t.
The entire first mistake is in accepting the gungrabber’s premise that ANY guns should be banned, except for 50 cal machine guns, which already are. The COTUS says, the right to bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED. When we start frittering THAT position away, we’re dooming ourselves to eventual failure. To my mind, Swalwell is a duplicitous snake.
Which rifle is more powerful, Eric?
Apart from cosmetic and minor erogonomic differences, they are all functionally equivalent.
This guy has Schitt for brains.
The only solution is to ban people like the congressman
Semi-auto is any firearm that does not have to be reloaded after one shot is fired.
It should be a part of MANDATORY instruction in upper grades and high schools, that the various types of sidearms, from single-shot pistols up to Thompson sub-machine guns, be at least identifiable, and the characteristics of each of the various types made known to all. Automatic rifles should be differentiated from semi-automatic rifles, and magazines of various types fully explained and the differences fully explored. Bolt action, lever action and pump action firearms should all be identified, and the comparisons of each as to usefulness, rates of fire, and ease (or difficulty) of operation.
The varying effectiveness and velocity rates of ammunition should be part of the agenda. The whole point is to completely demystify any aura of doom or invincibility that surrounds firearms of all types, and reduce them to the mechanical devices they are.
Deadly weapons they may be, but NOT capable of independent volition or free will of any kind. Any gun has to be loaded, cocked, aimed and fired, and no device yet constructed is able to do this without the assistance of a very live human being, and the degree of malice of that human being varies from person to person. No blanket statement about guns of ANY kind can be made without reference to the person who is in possession of it.
People who have training in the care, feeding, grooming and safe handling of sidearms should, by extension, retain an unabridged and unimpaired right to possess such weapons.
This is no different than giving driving training at high school level, but of much longer duration, over several years, some at a time.
Results will be graded and a passing score is mandatory.
Democrats’ final solution for gun owners...NUKE ‘EM!
From my charred, irradiated, dead hands.
I can shoot 1 MOL (Minute-of-Limo) at 1000 yards with my scoped AR-10, and put multiple rounds on target. It’s not for “sale” to the government at any price.
p
If the Government is allowed to take one gun, the Government will take all guns, period, before they stop.
The question[s] that beg to be answered are: 1. Will the Government attempt to seize (take) the guns the Citizens possess from them? The answer to that is, yes, they will. The only question needing to be answered is when will they begin.
2. Will they succeed? The jury is still out on the answer to this one. The Citizens hold the answer to this one. Because it cannot be definitely answered until after it is tried.
The bottom line is The American Citizen[s] hold this answer in their hands. Will we revert to being the men and women we once were[masculine men and feminine women], or will will we continue to becoming the soy cocktail drinkers, the girly men and she males[ feminine males and masculine females]?
Swalwell looks like Keir Dullea in a lunatic role.
To reduce semi-auto pistol deaths Id have universal background checks and mandatory reporting on mental health.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The sophomoric son of bitch?
No one CAn report about anyome’s mental health because of federal CAPA patient privacy legislation , formerly passed by the Democrat Left to prevent any third party discovery as to whether a person has HIV-AIDS. Privacy laws will never allow for any gun control related reporting on any persons mental health, unless the CAPA privacy laws are revoked, and the LEFT will never allow that.
The LEFT such as this Swalwell prig are blowing sphincter smoke at everyone and we let them?
Eff Salwall and the spavined horse he rode in on.
Eric Swalwell is a second term Representative who was previously the mayor of Dublin, CA. He only got to DC because redistricting and California's "top two" election system put him against the senile Fortney "Pete" Stark after Stark's district moved from Fremont/Union City north to the Tri-Valley.
He seems to have developed delusions of grandeur.
