An anti-gun owner initiative considered in Washington could lead to massive civil disobedience and a severe domestic crisis, gun law expert John M. Snyder warned on Friday.
"According to confidential information," he said, "forces linked with the administration suggest the government classify semiautomatic firearms and multiple capacity ammunition feeding devices as Title 2 National Firearms Act items under the Gun Control Act of 1968.
Americans familiar with federal gun laws understand that under this scenario, semiautomatics and high capacity magazines could be acquired only with great difficulty and at great expense by America's estimated 100 million law-abiding firearms owners, notes Snyder.
According to Snyder and other gun ownership advocates, the Obama administration long ago realized it would have insurmountable difficulty getting a semiautomatic gun ban, such as that considered by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and others, passed Congress, especially when the House is controlled by defenders of the Second Amendment.
Congressional Second Amendment supporters already are preparing for such a battle. During the Clinton years, Congress enacted a partial, temporary semiautomatic ban but allowed it to sunset after 10 years because of its lack of significant negative impact on crime, according to surveys conducted by the National Association of Chiefs of Police.
The Obama administration, now safely reelected, may order the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to take the classification step. Some gun-grabbers view the designation of Street Sweeper shotguns as Title 2 firearms during the Clinton administration as precedent for such a move.

Wasn’t sure if that’d be cruelty to animals or not...
That’s an issue, to be sure, but hogs have a pretty strong constitution. Seems worthy of an experiment, no?
LMAO!!! I love it when I find one of your more memorable gems to start my day. Sets just the right tone.
Thank you.
;-\
Ah heck, I say we give it the old college try...
If the hogs get sick and die, we can always grind them up for feed for the chickens.
LOL Thank you. Makes my day when I make someone laugh. I’m not sure anything I do is more important than that.
The info is revealed false:

Texas.
But all of them except the ones in ban areas that have a sporting goods section that sells ammo have a catalog of guns, even if they don’t stock them in the store, and they can order them in.
It’s a shame the people won’t simply tell the federal monster where to stick its debased Federal Reserve Notes and drop out of the system. Imagine the effect of completely dumping the American Peso and trading in precious metals, bartering goods and services, and making use of more stable currencies where necessary. Taking away the beast’s ability to control and feed off of productive labor would kill it in fairly short order.
You misunderstand – It’s a way of showing the ‘powers that be’ that we aren’t going to just roll over to their evil.
They start making inquiries into gun we’ve bought – well, the story is we’ve sold them or whatever.
Some we’ll have ready, some we’ll have stashed away just in case – but they should make no mistake – THEY AREN’T GETTING THEM ALL, SO DON’T EVEN TRY.
PING!
For the last several years the House has approved a continuing resolution. Means business as usual. Look for Boehner to do it again
