With more things being classified as "felonies" the stage is set to deny many more people lawful gun ownership. For example, it is a "felony" to transport your own money outside the US without reporting it to the government.

Excuse me? I thought it was my money. Some bureaucrat sets an arbitrary amount that is now "suspicious" and they can steal (confiscate) your money AND charge you with a felony! Incredible.

With a stroke of a pen things that are of themselves are not wrong become felonies. And because we have caved in on "reasonable" restrictions they will continue to dream up more things that require us to turn in our weapons.

There never has been an "Assault Weapons Ban."

Maybe not in Montana. Come visit Kalifornia some time and check out a gun store.

I meant on a Federal level of course. The weapon I bought last week had a big orange tag affixed to the trigger guard that read, "Not legal for sale in CA, MA, and NJ."

Although I do think the proper response to Hoffman would have been: "Dear Mr. Hoffman, while your opposition to the NRA is duly noted, we are only including people of some consequence on the list.

I agree entirely.
We get to decide who people of consequence are.
Why do we want to list every moron in the country?

Every block has at least one or two sad sacks who can barely tie their shoelaces, need someone else to care for them, and would love to be "luminaries by association".

Spare me.

"As a supporter of comprehensive anti-gun safety measures,...

Huh? Hoffman is anti-gun safety? So he's against gun safety.

Just wanted to be clear on this, Dustbin.

I got in a big argument over this with one of the vendors at a gun show last weekend. He insisted that they didn't deserve a bullet, and even rope was too good for them.

Then, my wife said "D-Con" - and THAT got his approval (and brought down the house...)

Now, about this ersatz "Blacklist" being promulgated by the howling Holeywood halfwits...:::

The original NRA blacklist is carefully documented so as to keep NRA out of trouble. But it looks to me like the commie rodents with their "fake" blacklist don't even bother to validate the names of anyone who's on the list. I mean, anyone could get on their site and put Osama bin Goatraper or somebody on the list, right?

Which begs a couple of questions...

What would happen if somebody who *did not want* their name to appear on the list, got spuriously and gratuitously and maliciously and scurrilously and roguishly and ratfinkishly added to the list by a "Prankster"?? They might get really upset, especially if they think they're going to get "Boycotted" by somebody as a result... Not only that, but what if a whole bunch of spurious entries like Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Ladin and Moscrofulus Grobb and... etc. started ending up on the list?

In fact, what if the entire San Fagdisco or Los Anal-eze telephone directory ended up on the list???

JUST wondering...

Yeah, or Adolph Hitler. In fact, I know for a fact he's on the list because I put him there.

Hey, he supported gun control.

This is the reason that, as a Jew, I don't contribute money to the ADL, Bnai Brith, or the AJC... In fact, I stopped going to services and resigned my membership at a synagogue over the anti-gun views of the head Rabbi.

They don't want 20 year olds to be able to buy guns, but they don't mind them carrying weapons to defend their sorry butts.

Actually, they don't like that either... As Ann Coulter has said (paraphrasing), liberals only support wars that are NOT in the interest of US national security.
