“you are advocating action that will get us there with certainty. “

And the action you are advocating - NOT VOTING - won’t??

Agreed. War is coming. There is no way to undo what they have done to us. Over run by illegals and we can’t stop it. Coup conspirators still walking around as free men while it is not at all clear the coup has actually failed. Etc, & etc. Prepare to survive is about all we can do. Buckle up, the ride is going to get very bumpy and probably pretty soon.

The entire point is there ARE NO EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS. Everything that can be compromised has been. They are convinced they can get the government to turn you and I into criminals that can just be tidily “dealt with” on their behalf. And with the Brown Shirt Media at their backs don’t bet against them. My strategy is to survive. The winners write the history.

but the ban on semi-automatics (of the kind used in the Orlando shootings) and related ammunition expired in 2004

Not really
There never was a REAL ban
Manufacturers just changed the appearance and you could buy them

Bump stocks are crap anyway. No loss. You can learn to bump fire without a bump stock if you want to senselessly blow through magazines with wild abandon.

Bump stocks may well be crap. Doesn't matter. It is the precedent being set that is bad. Trump should not have approved this ban. Further, he should have pressured congress to remove the de-facto ban on suppressors. That is a genuine health and safety issue that needs to be addressed through legislation.

They shoved Obacare, homosexual marriage down our throats and we were armed. Can you imagine what they’d do if weren’t

Selfish, eh? And you?

You obviously don’t care if there’s a red flag law or de facto gun registry.

That’s why you’re willing to vote for Trump in spite of that. I won’t be.

If he doesn’t do it, I’m all for him. He’s not a professional politician so i can forgive him the kneejerk reaction.

You’re advocating for the way you want to vote and I’m doing the same.

Maybe instead of trying to convince the principled, you can spend your efforts convincing the unprincipled politicians you adore to support 2A.

Watch the video in post 7 then tell me what’s wrong with what Trump is saying about background checks and red flag laws.

This is the entire point of this current gun control push. The Dems don’t think they’re getting the guns right now. They know they can separate the president from his base if they can get him to do something stupid. Now we see if he takes the bait.

“You obviously don’t care if there’s a red flag law or de facto gun registry.”

Why are you acting as if you know better what I think than I do? That’s classic strawman logical fallacy.

There’s no possibility of rational conversation when that happens. Go ahead and argue with your imagination all you want but please leave the real me out of it!

What that echoes is the marketing. Sounds reasonable but it doesn’t go that way in practice.

In practice, it’s a gun registry and confiscation law.

You think the statute will be written as a direct quote in that comment? You’re sorely mistaken.

You probably also believe the “Affordable” Care Act was actually affordable because the title said so.
