I'd like to hear them argue that this is constitutional because the Founding Fathers never anticipated muzzle loading rifle. America's enemies on the Left don't care how blatant their lies are, as long as the lies support the narrative.

She takes her marching orders from the globalists in New York City. It will be easier for the elites to crush Western civilization if we’re disarmed.

Wait, what? I thought black powder muzzle loaders is what the Framers meant when they wrote the Second Amendment?

“Especially assault muzzleloaders!”

those are the ones with bayonet lugs, forward pistol grips, telescoping stocks, flash hiders, and grenade launchers, right?

BTW, I wonder if high-capacity power horns will be banned as well ...

1933: “We don’t want pistols and rifles, just automatic weapons.”

1964: “We don’t want to ban any guns, we just want you to fill out this little piece of paper. It will never be checked anyways!”

1970’s: “We don’t want to ban any rifles, we just want to ban pistols.”

1980: “We don’t want to ban all pistols, just the cheap ones.”

1993: “Sorry about what we said in 1964, we’ll be checking the little piece of paper after all.”

1994: “Sorry about what we said in the 1970’s, we will be banning certain rifles after all. But you can still have semiautomatics in general.”

2000’s: “Sorry about what we said in 1994 and 1980. We really do want to ban all semiautos and pistols. But don’t worry, we’ll never want to confiscate, and you can always have a muzzle loader.”

2017: “Sorry about what we said in the 2000’s, we do want to confiscate, and you cannot have a muzzle loader.”

I understand her concern about muzzleloaders. I heard that you can put chainsaw lugs on ‘em!

A black power pistol kit? Is there something you would like to share with the group?

While that is true, we need more gun control like we need a hole in the head!

She is coming up with a follow up report on the dangers of boomerangs.

I heard some thug in Australia lost all the fingers off one hand from one of those. (Extra credit if you can guess the reference correctly.)

Rockin n rollin with a muzzleloader is about one shot every three minutes.

There are no such things as “reasonable gun control laws” with these whackos. When they say they want “reasonable laws,” they mean they want to ban ALL guns from law-abiding people.

You are exponentially wrong stating millions of Indians were killed by muzzle loaders. They were not wiped out by any type of ammunition. The Slaughter occurred in the 50-100 years after the Spanish brought small pox and other killer viruses in the early 1500’s.

Read 1491 if you have any interest in the subject. Guns, germs and steel is good too.
