Then the only people who will feel safe with guns around are the street gangs and those that don’t pay attention to “Gun Free” establishments.
Only idiot liberals believe that disarming the sheep makes them safe from the wolves.
This is Hillary’s big push - if elected, it will be her legacy item. And when we are disarmed, it’s over forever.
Denocrat tactic: “I am for it” then vote against it. They do this with budget reductions, defense spending and now gun rights. Beware the devious democrats.
That the great thing about these asshats, the more the talk the more Americans Arm Up!
They think there are at least 300,000,000 guns owned by Americans but they try to tell US that Gun ownership is going down. From the MSM I can see they think anywhere form 31-41% of Americans own Guns.
Have Fun trying to Disarm US! BTW How’s that coming along in NY and Connecticut? Have they disarmed and repossed all the assault weapons and large capacity Magazines yet?-)
Well that only depends on the outcome of the Revolt (or I guess the succession of the Southern and most Western states)!-)
To “ban” guns is one thing.
Confiscating them is another. This isn’t Australia.
They will chip, chip, chip away.
Same process Muslims are using. It is the fatal “Achilles Heel” of western democracy. By the time they get to final line, the opposition is isolated and ineffective.
“Common Sense Gun Laws” and “Comprehensive Immigration Reform?”
One actually (always) means amnesty. The other means 2A infringements.
People moved there from Massachusetts (and other Marxist states) for the low taxes but continued voting Rat.The joke will be on them when they find their taxes just as high as in Massachusetts.
This aint complicated. Every debate needs to start by agreeing on the definition of terms.
I am 100% certain that these Dims will fight for and defend our rights under the 2nd Amendment as understood by them.
Live free or die tryin’......................
Worked really well in France and Belgium, didn’t it?..............
In 2013 when "the list" was presented to the executive branch of known newly made illegal gun and magazine owners, come to find out more than half the State police, local police, EMTs, firefighters, big business owner (taxes) and POLITICIANS THAT VOTED FOR THE LAW as well as politicians that did not, were on that list. The door-to-door kick-in and class D felony arrests were quietly quashed before the next sunrise.
Eff’ing democrats champion “gun control” / eliminating gun ownership, in a state that is one of the most safe in the nation per capita, ie: .9 homocides per 100,000.
There are no salami tactics when it comes to setting up a national gun registry like in UK or Oz. Either it exists or it doesn’t and only parliamentary dictatorship as in those two places makes it possible.
Not even Democrats will vote majority for Feinsteinian national gun registration. She’s failed at that for thirty years.
Without registration there is no confiscation.
Time for us to chip, chip, chip back.
We should be actively trying to expand gun rights through legislation. Here are a few points we could start with:
1. Suppressors - NFA regulation of suppressors is illogical and a safety issue. Suppressors make firearm use safer and more neighborly, and by no means should these items require federal registration.
2. Barrel length and OAL restrictions - ATF regulation of barrel lengths for rifles and shotguns, not to mention restrictions on shoulder stocks for pistols, are nonsensical and bear no logical relationship to the safe use of the weapon. Such restrictions should be repealed completely.
3. Definitions of "assault-style" weapons - The regulation of so-called "assault-style" weapons is a flagrant emotional play to get regulation for weapons that are functionally no more dangerous than their traditional counterparts. A federal law should be passed to positively define an "assault weapon" as a select-fire weapon only, that "assault-style weapon" has no legal meaning, and that government is prohibited from making any law to restrict firearms ownership based on cosmetic features of the weapon in question.
4. A law should be passed to positively assert that no person will lose the right to bear arms without due process of law, and that due process must include a jury verdict.
5. Based on the Heller and McDonald decisions, "shall-issue" carry will be the federal standard for concealed-carry licenses throughout the US, including the District of Columbia.
There... that's enough to go on with. No doubt we can formulation some more ideas as we go.
I have less confidence that we will not soon become a dictatorship. I’m not sure we are not very far away...
We are very close to 400 million.
