It isn’t even the first thing they do in the new administration, it is BEFORE the first thing!
What does that say about what is coming down the road if (before) the first thing they do is license and disarm the public?
IF taking away guns made society "polite and civil," then the government's "agencies" would not need them either.
Why do cops in San Fran, NYC, and Chicago still carry guns?
Why do EU-Cops carry guns?
Why is it that the very people who propose the abolishing of a CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT because they so fear guns and guns in the hands of the people they are elected by and charged with the responsibility of representing in the Hallowed Halls of local, state, and federal government have their own GUN-CARRYING ARMED security details? WTH?
They want a gun ban? Then make it all-out, 100%. NO ONE has a gun. We start with the military, law enforcement, and down to John Q. Public. I mean, if no one needs a gun, then NO ONE needs a gun, Right?
After that, we go to knives. Make like Chicago--yes, Chicago--and ban anything with a blade over 2-1/2". Do it right, the way England did it. No locking blade folders of any size. Kitchen knives next, because once they took away the pocket knives the thugs just started using common kitchen knives. Safe. I want to be safe.

Safe? My fellow Americans:
O! say does that star spangled Banner yet wave,
O'er the Land of the free, and the home of the brave?
It is no less a question today than it was when Key penned the words in 1814.
And just in case anyone missed it, it's "Land of the FREE," not "safe."
