The Minnesota legislature is considering HF 3433. HF3433 contains several significant infringements on the rights protected by the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution. The bill was introduced in the Minnesota House of Representatives on February 17, 2026. HF 3433 has been referred to the Minnesota House of Representatives Committee on Public Safety Finance and Policy. 35 members of the House have signed up as authors of the bill.
HF3433 bans a long list of firearms by name, bans firearms by specific features, requires people who desire to keep any of the firearms specified to register them, store them in accordance with requirements to be adopted, and agree to allow police to inspect the storage system. Registration will be required to be renewed every three years, and the firearms will only be allowed to be kept on the property of the individual. In addition, those firearms would only be allowed to be fired on licensed firing ranges.

No question about it, absolutely unconstitutional.
Make Minnesota the main stage for thoughtful engagement about America’s future
Proposed laws like this are a permanent fixture at all levels of government. Often, they contain the exact language of previous laws that were overturned in court. Why do they do this? My guess is that they aren’t really intended to become laws. They are a nod to the radical base of the Democratic party. They are aimed at telling the radical far left, “See, we’re working for you every day.” What this says to me is, keeping the far left happy is a constant goal, and the writers think, perhaps with justification, that the far left are idiots. I’m guessing that the author of such proposed legislation expects and probably gets contributions from those idiots. That’s what the proposed laws are actually about.
Proposing a law that makes the 2nd amendment conditional, and forces one to waive their 4th amendment rights. Nothing unconstitutional there.
This comes to mind:
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
Its meant to harass people.
Maybe they can send social workers to homes to try to enforce it....
GFYS!
No. Minnesota will use heavily militarized SWAT teams and armored vehicles to inspect gun safes and review gunowners’ registration documents.
The social workers will deal with murder, rape, assault and armed robbery.
This would cause some bad outcomes in so many ways.
Reminds me of a friend who got a job repo cars. First car he was hooking up was in the hood. Guy yells at him: put your hands on that car and that is where they are going to stay. He left and quit.
First clown trying to check on my household storage without a warrant will find out what a minuteman was.
“...I do not expect it to pass in Minnesota.”
I don’t see where the problem is. If they can’t spell learning then they won’t be able to find the safety that is sold in lock.

In 1941, the US Congress saw how the nazis used gun registration to confiscate French firearms. Just days before the Pearl Harbor attack, Congress reaffirmed Second Amendment rights and prohibited gun registration. In 1968, bills to register guns were debated, with opponents recalling the Nazi experience and supporters denying that the Nazis ever used registration records to confiscate guns. The bills were defeated, as every such proposal has been ever since, including recent “universal background check” bills.
The lies we have been told over the years...
1962 We ONLY want to register handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1964, We ONLY want to register ALL firearms, not ban them.
1968 We ONLY want to register all guns, and ban the import of foreign Saturday Night Specials, and 5-shot bolt action army surplus rifles! (they got the ban).
1970, We ONLY want to ban small American handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1976 We ONLY want to ban ALL handguns! Rifles will not be affected!
1981, Actress Lee Grant on Good Morning America (ABC) screams...”THE NRA IS A RIFLE ORGANIZATION! THEY SHOULD GIVE UP THEIR HANDGUNS AND THEY CAN KEEP THEIR RIFLES!”
1984, they came for the rifles.
1994..When they thought they had banned “As-s-s-ault rifles they did not shut off the lights and go home. they immediately went after their next target, .50 cal single shot rifles “THAT CAN TAKE DOWN AN AIRPLANE!”
They will never be satisfied till they have an unarmed population.
Given that the state of Minnesota is in a state of rebellion I’m not sure how I feel about this.
There should be severe penalties for public officials that attempt every couple of months to outlaw our God given and Constitutionally protected rights. It should be a personal penalty. It is the height of stupidity to continue like this.
Is Minnesota Bill someone we should know like Minnesota Fats?
Most of those police will leave their heads unprotected so a head shot will be most effective.
