No, this is about alarmist speculation with no verification. This is about an article that was originally published on "infowars" website.
Discussed and discredited here
We need to stop circulating unsubtantiated rumors purely for the sake of alarmist reactions.
Here we go again...
But you're right, it's not a current piece of legislation. So why get everybody into an uproar with pelosi's wish list?
We all realize that the democRATs want to outlaw guns. But this article implies implies that somehow the author has evidence that this is the president's official hit list.
I'd like to see some verification of that, please.
I've had the same mishap! Get in a canoe at your own peril!
Mine just recently were stolen...............
“The key to preserving the 2nd amendment is teaching young people what it means”
The key to preserving the 2nd amendment is getting as many people involved in shooting as possible. And looking at the numbers, it could not be much higher.
“stolen” is not good, because you’re supposed to report that to the police.
Sold in a private transaction is better.
I put up an ad and sold it to some guy, don’t remember his name. He had a beard.
These are silly replies and to me, indicate someone who is not willing to fight for the preservation of the 2A.
It's not about the real criminals - it's about turning all of US into criminals with the stroke of a pen. I don't have the exact Rand quote (or even remember which book) handy, but paraphrasing, there's no way to rule honest men, the only power the government has is to crack down on criminals, and if there aren't enough criminals, pass more laws so that EVERYONE is a criminal.
Not a problem.........
I used an index card on the bulletin board at the laundrymat.
Better yet. No record of the ad.
The idea is this:
No one knows when the first confiscation wave will happen, but it would be best not to lose your weapons, or your life, in a raid for which you are not prepared.
Once the raids start happening, the word gets out, people recover their hidden arms, organize, and resist.
The government intends to do something VERY BAD to us, if they expect we would start shooting at them. The 2nd Amendment is the “canary in the mineshaft”.
I thought bolt-action and lever-action were included last time I saw a list.
It's all part of the strategy. Do you really think I'm going to just let them come in and take away what's rightfully mine? If my weapons have to be "lost" in a hurricane or sold without receipt, even for just a little while, then so be it. In the end I'll still have them. I'll stand up and fight for my rights, but I won't be waving my guns around while doing so.
It happened in California with that SKS model and I thought that New York once had an example of actual confiscation.
Read The Federalist Papers.
A lot of Democrats that have A ratings for paying lip service to the Second Amendment.
They’re not Zell Miller Democrats.
Semper Fi!
