This is just a precursor for the eventual move to confiscate ALL guns.

So in Swalwell’s mind,it would be “legitimate” to carve out AR-15’s (and a host of other semi-automatic, auto loading rifles) from the Second Amendment without formally re-writing the Second Amendment and ratifying same, criminalize those who resist unconstitutional confiscation and then “legitimately” nuke them. Breathtakingly astonishing and the essence of why the Second Amendmeht was established by the founders.

That would amount to a big ol' second shot heard 'round the world. AR II, Civil War II, whatever you want to call it, commences the second they move. Every red blooded American needs to plan to not be at home if the fascists attempt this, but rather be at the homes of those who sent agents to terrorize the People and the mediots who cheered it on.

“”I demand Eric Swalwell resign immediately or be forced from office. He does not believe in the constitution and he openly calls for assaults and theft on legal citizens of the United States. He’s a disgrace to the office and a threat to the country. RESIGN!

That man is one dangerous critter. I get the same reaction when I see his face or hear his voice that I do when I see/hear Kamala Harris. Even if the two of them didn’t say a word, they would still be offensive just from the expressions on their faces. In fact, I think Harris’s is a perpetual scowl. The two of them no doubt will run as a pair in 2020 for president!

Swalwell doesn’t know what he is talking about when he claims to only ban “Semi-Automatic Weapons” Many hunting rifles and a slew of pistols would fall under this ban.
His stupidity is unlimited as he thinks this would only limit this this to the “evil” AR-15 rifle platform

But being ignorant never stopped a democrat from enacting legislation on a topic they knew nothing about. See Diane Feinstein and the previous gun ban.

Demonic Rep Swalwell QUIT flapping your gums and lets get this party started. I am tired of this crap. Lets settle it once and for all.

In 1776 the British demanded we turn over our weapons. Our response was we shot them! Lets go!

At least he is honest about what he wants to do, instead of creeping up on confiscation like the rest of them.

Where I live there are lots of farms and open fields. Tractors plow those fields under every year. Be a shame for those that want to confiscate weapons happen to get caught in those tractors nuts.

“Every red blooded American needs to plan to not be at home if the fascists attempt this, but rather be at the homes of those who sent agents to terrorize the People “

Once Trump is out of office — look out.

They won’t go door to door rounding up guns. Heck no. They are too smart and sneaky for that. They will regulate them, tax them, buy-them back and outlaw them. They will make gun owners’ lives miserable.

They will not spend the money and time to round up guns. No, they are above that.

They will have decent people bring the guns to THEM.

Swallwell is a clear and present danger to the Constitution and the citizens of the United States. But then, so are most Progressive "representatives" in Washington.

That Deep State is very wide and very deep ...

True fact. Dem Congress IQ 15 points below American average.

They just don't get that our side has a trillion rounds of ammunition, and they can't decide which bathroom to use.
