[[So, I don’t think it would have mattered what questions were asked;]]

My feeling is that if tucker had mentioned the second amendment in his question- then swallwell’s ‘the children are dying’ would have been seen as his liberal dictatorship attempt to thwart the second amendment ‘for the children’s sake’ to which carlson could have replied that that is not a valid reason to violate our inalienable rights, and pointed out that parents have a right to protect their children in their own homes with guns that are up to the task should multiple attackers attack- He could have also pointed out that just because a deranged individual gets his hands on guns it does not mean our constitutional rights should be violated- the problem isn’t guns, it’s mentally ill people that is the problem- you take guns away- they will use bombs which will be even more devastating- or they will use knives- like the maggot in Japan recently that killed quite a number of people-

Tucker could have made it crystal clear that people like swallwell will use any illegitimate excuse to ban guns- He could have been more effective had he listened to swalwell’s diatribes before he invited him on, and prepared his questions better ahead of time- swalwell kept falling back on ‘the military is outgunned’ which is utter nonsense- Tucker didn’t even address that lie-

[[Only the military has assault weapons.]]

Exactly, and i wish people like tucker and hannity and others would make that crystal clear to their audiences and stop the lie that AR’s are ‘assault weapons’

The democrats have won on that lie- they have convinced the public that AR’s are ‘assault weapons’ and republicans ALLOWED the democrats to win on that subject by not exposing hte lie effectively enough-

and this sets up a dangerous precedence for future bans of most or all semi-automatics which the left WILL DEEM as ‘assault guns’

Yep. 20 million to 1 million seems pretty lopsided...

The rotten perps would be free to use “less lethal” weapons like a shotgun or a revolver. BTW I despise this little piece of spittle Swalwell.

Rural King will ship a gun to a gun shop near you for only $10 bucks, then your local shop can do the transfer.

Well, I glad I watched the latest procession of lies from Smallsmell before I took my morning shower.

No confiscation? Is he saying that once you are “caught” with a banned weapon, and “criminally prosecuted”, that you will still get to keep that weapon?

Not a chance.

But Smallsmell says you can consign that weapon to a “gun club” to avoid prosecution. Ok, but what happens when the government declares that “gun club” to be a terrorist cell?

Will there be any hesitation closing that “club”, arresting its members, and confiscating those weapons?

Not a chance.

This little worm, and everyone like him, is dangerous and needs to be confined behind a wall on the southern border of Oregon and along the western borders of Nevada and Arizona.

Hmmm, get the state to buy ARs for $1,600. I can then build an AR for about $600. Yes it would be a crap gun but hey, I’m just building it to sell it to the “program”. I make a grand a gun.

You're way too extravagant. Legally, the AR-15 is just an 80% lower receiver that's been completed, not the rest of the parts. I'm going into business completing 80% lowers at two per hour. With $60 in parts and a half hour of labor to earn $1600, I'll make a killing. Oops, does that phrase trigger the gun grabbers. Oops, are we even allowed to say "trigger" without giving those sissies the vapors?

“Swallwell got himself a lot of free face time on Tucker tonight.”

I watched that last night. What a dolt. The gun confiscation issue... whew! His written statement read by Tucker says the government should “confiscate” guns. The he says “I don’t want to confiscate guns”.

I think there’s a word for the king of “logic” he pulls in his debates. Tucker says security guards use guns to protect Congress. Why shouldn’t my wife be able to protect herself? Swalwell’s response: “You hate cops. My father was a cop.” WTF?

Anyhow, stupid malleable Swalwell people don’t watch Tucker so he did no harm. For those who do watch Tucker, the guy made a complete fool of himself.

“Tucker gave Swalwell a lot of air time to prove the Trump/Russia collusion and IMHO came up empty handed.”

He was going to PROVE, once and for all, Russian collusion. His biggest piece of evidence: Trump joking at a rally in a shout-out, something like “Russia, if you’re listening, maybe YOU can find Hillary’s 33,000 missing emails.” THAT is his proof.

Every time Swalwell is on TV he proves talk is cheap. He never has anything of substance, fabricates his stories, and gives his therapist more work.

But Swallwell’s face time on Tucker just demonstrated even more what a leftist idiot politician he really is!

He was brain-locked on saying that police are out-gunned, instead of answering Tucker’s questions.

What is Swalwell planning to use the police and military for that would make him concerned that law abiding citizens have them "outgunned"?

Exactly.

At this point I think they’re all just liars. They know full well what the end goal is and so do we.
