The 2018 tax on your least expensive 1911 will $1200.

To which you'll staple the police report of 12/17/2017 showing the LOSS of your weapons in a home burglary while you were out Christmas shopping.

Unorganized, untrained, 21st Century soft individuals will not have the nerve to rush to get themselves shot to pieces killed.

But...

... NY has a squad that specifically checks death certificates against gun ownership lists and shows up sometimes before the person is buried to confiscate their guns.

REALLY???

I'd like to read about that!

Gonna be hard to have Law Enforcement confiscate weapons when most of them are NRA members.

Exactly...the pundit class seem to believe that if our political sheep pass some kind of confiscation law, the military and law enforcement will happily go from door-to-door rounding up citizens and their firearms.

I know a LOT of LEO and those I talk with would be in the resistance!

The military will be divided and will side with the people and the Constitution.
!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I would not count on that.


Me either. I've met military personnel that were devoted Democrats. Trust no one.

DO NOT bet you can have it reduced to a misdemeanor.

You need a good, honest, lawyer (good luck with that), LOTS of money, and LOTS of time to fight anything in court.

In the mean time, you could be offered a ‘simple, cheap, plea bargain’ which will guarantee you no time in jail. In contrast, you can be facing a big bond you may not be able to afford, jail time to risk, who knows what it could be.

It is a fact, daily and for years lots of folks plea bargain their rights away to stay out of jail and with their families so they can support them.

It is not about innocence when you go to court. It is about how wealthy you are, how much money you have, and what you are prepared to risk. AND — if you have a really good attorney (character, knowledge, researches, time to spend on your case).

But interestingly enough, it’s the very same gun-grabbers that taught us that we don’t have to obey laws we don’t like.

Immigrations laws don’t have to be obeyed. Laws against vote fraud don’t have to be obeyed. Laws against employing illegal aliens don’t have to be obeyed. What makes them think that gun laws should be obeyed?

You just clued me in - the libs know they’ve ruined public school so badly with their entitlement and NOT teaching anything important agenda, that they know products of that establishment will be frustrated and be back to seek revenge.

So they want them to cool down for 3 years first

How about just fixing schools back to the 50’s standards? A win-win for everyone (except Alinsky).

"They're quick to say they're going to take the guns," said Tom King, president of the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association. "But they don't tell you the law doesn't apply to long guns, or that these families can sell [their loved one's] pistol or apply to keep it."

Guns?

What guns??

Did you guys know Grampa had GUNS???

“It appears you are in possession of a rifle and/or Shotgun (listed below) that has an ammunition feeding device capable of holding more than five (5) rounds of ammunition. Rifles and shotguns capable of holding more than five (5) rounds of ammunition are unlawful to possess in New York City, as per NYC Administrative Code 10-306 (b).”

Oh Officer!!

I'm SO glad you showed up!!

Our guns were stolen last night while we were out.

Can you help up with the insurance papers?

We were 'clued' LONG ago...

 

The SchoolMaster 

 

 

Mr. Griswald walked up to the wagon and introduced himself.  I introduced myself, as well as Mark and Billy Davis, Mark’s friend.  “These children are twelve minutes late for class.”  Mr. Griswald looked at his pocket watch to enforce his statement.  I tried to explain how a Western school operated.  Many families didn’t have time pieces, so the children had to judge their pace by the bell.  “They’ll be no bell for my classroom.  Punctuality is the responsible of the individual.” His expression was firm.

“I see,” I stated.  But I wasn’t so sure he saw.  “Well fellas, you better hustle!”  I gave Mark a pat on the back and helped him down off the wagon.  Then I helped Billy down.  He accidently hit my rifle and it fell off the wagon.  Billy immediately apologized for his clumsiness. 

Naturally, my boy Mark bent over to pick it up and hand it to me.  “Don’t touch that!” Mr. Griswald suddenly shouted.

Mark’s hand froze.  “But it’s not-“ he started as he once again bent to pick it up.

“I said don’t touch it!” Mr. Griswald ordered gruffly.

I stared at Mr. Griswald, not quite believing that he was talking to my son like that – especially when I was still standing right there!  I didn’t much appreciate it either.  “But it’s not good for a gun to stay in the dirt,” Mark tried to explain calmly.

But Mr. Griswald was anything but calm!  He was acting like Mark had just threatened to burn the school down or something!  “Take your places in the schoolroom…immediately!” he ordered Mark and Billy.

Hello?  Didn’t he see me, the father, sitting right there in the wagon?  Didn’t he think I was capable of disciplining my own child?   But Mark said nothing.  He nodded, gave me one last look, then hurried into the classroom.

Mr. Griswald bent over and picked up my rifle.  He held it out to me and asked, “Is this gun loaded, Mr. McCain?”

Now I ask, what good is an unloaded gun?  “Certainly,” I answered as I took my gun from him and sat it securely on my lap.

“In the name of sanity, how can you place a loaded weapon within easy reach of children?” 

I remained calm knowing he was from back east and not used to the western culture’s way of life.  “Your points well taken, Mr. Griswald,” I stated.  “But it can’t go off without being cocked.  And the reason it’s loaded is because a rifle’s a necessary safeguard in open country.”  I tried educating him on some facts about the West.

“Safeguard?  Carelessness is inexcusable anywhere!” Mr. Griswald stated.

“I just explained-“ I started, but he wouldn’t let me finish Mr. high and mighty thought he was so much wiser then me.  He ordered – yes, ordered – me not to bring a firearm to the school again.

I stared at his retreating figure as he walked into the schoolhouse.  Boy, did I feel sorry for those kids right now!

Gosh!

Now I'll have to buy 3 that hold 5.

Oh well; I've got folks that can reload really fast to help me.

I love the rifleman :-) I’m surprised they would have that in the show. I suppose eventually that schoolteacher got educated?

I tape it often, I think it’s on TV land… Anyway I have it set up to automatically record so I’m not sure what channel finds it on.
