Missouri Democrats introduced an anti-gun bill which would turn law-abiding firearm owners into criminals. They will have 90 days to turn in their guns if the legislation is passed.
Dana Loesch Radio reported on the new legislation being pushed by Missouri Democrats:
Any person who, prior to the effective date of this law, was legally in possession of an assault weapon or large capacity magazine shall have ninety days from such effective date to do any of the following without being subject to prosecution.
Here’s part of the Democratic proposal in Missouri:
4. Any person who, prior to the effective date of this law, was legally in possession of an assault weapon or large capacity magazine shall have ninety days from such effective date to do any of the following without being subject to prosecution:
(1) Remove the assault weapon or large capacity magazine from the state of Missouri;
(2) Render the assault weapon permanently inoperable; or
(3) Surrender the assault weapon or large capacity magazine to the appropriate law enforcement agency for destruction, subject to specific agency regulations.
5. Unlawful manufacture, import, possession, purchase, sale, or transfer of an assault weapon or a large capacity magazine is a class C felony.
Nice to see the masks coming off.
TO ALL GUN AND AMMO MANUFACTURERS:
Refuse to sell or even accept any quote requests or requests for info from every federal or state govts that have pending infringing legislation, or has passed infringing legislation (NY, CA).
Not one bullet.
Not one gun.
Not one spare part.
All of you meet up and agree to this for your own and the countries survival.
Outlaw high-capacity liberals. If they have access to more than 1 taxpayer dollar they’re permanently banned.
First, I apologize for duplicating what some others have said and preaching to the choir but legislation such as this angers me to the point I must vent. Proposal of gun laws like this strengthen my resolve to oppose and violate any such law should it ever be passed in my state. Now, what happens when a non-resident passes through the state carrying a weapon legal in both his home state and end destination? And of course, how many criminals will comply? Another play we’ve seen on this is the requirement for additional insurance should you own guns. Again, just another effort to be able to track gun owners just like the background check for private sales. Surely they can’t think we are fooled by these emotionally charged, feel good laws designed to void the Second Amendment.
With all the registration and confiscation proposals out there, it makes private sales much more tempting. I now believe the best weapons are those that cannot be traced to you. I predict mass transfers and losses of guns via private sales, boating accidents, fires, etc. will become the norm. In the meantime, I call on all gun supporting organizations to get together to oppose these laws and those who propose such legislation, regardless of party. We need to find strong pro-Second Amendment candidates willing to stand up and propose legislation protecting the rights of those 99% plus gun owners who are responsible and law abiding.
Dropped mine accidentally while fishing....
I’m just proud that a Democrat(Communist) finally stood up and told the truth about their agenda.
Yeah, they said that about last year's election.
Point out that your weapons aren’t “illegal”, they’re just “undocumented”.
“I suggest they get crackin’ and packin’.”
I like it. (May I use it?):>)
Difference here is there are tons of Democrats up in arms, (literally and figuratively), about this overreach!
It will be 2010 amplified.
20 Democrat senators up for re-election, and many in red/purple states. It ought to be fun to watch.
A few years ago I read a fiction book by the Christian author Larry Burkett called “Illuminati”
One of the interesting parts of his story was where the corrupt president eliminated all the supreme court justices that were against his power grab. I can see that same thing happening to politicians who try to take away weapons, especially in the non-metro areas. Hope it never happens, but the stakes are getting pretty high and we are seeing tensions getting real high! I pray there is a peaceful resolution to this.
This is a violation of the Second Amendment. Get a rope!
The Oath Keepers are made up of former/active duty military and law enforcement. Those who don't meet that requirement for full membership can still join as an associate member to work on outreach efforts. This is vital to the movements growth, and one person can get Oath Keepers information to a significant number of people. You can purchase Oath Keepers brochures and push cards from the OK store to mail, handout, or place as you see fit. You can get 250 brochures for under $15. You will also receive some with a membership, or you can go to the OK resource page for fliers you can print out yourself.
Donations can be made to the Oath Keepers Billboard Campaign Fund, Oath Keepers General Fund, or the Oath Keepers Legal Fund. The Billboard Campaign is placing billboards outside of military bases. It started in response to a that used the TEA party as a potential enemy, but was expanded into a larger effort to place more general Oath Keepers billboards outside of several military bases.
The Oath Keepers is a very important movement that's been been intelligently and professionally organized. It sticks with a simple Constitutional message that has widespread support with a large portion of the American public. It's a legitimate mainstream movement that has several branches across the nation. It's been seeing growth since it's creation in 2009, and has recently seen had a surge in popularity with the political climate.
I place a lot on movements like this. I agree with what Mark Levin said about us living in a post-Constitutional era with a broken system. He said we need to look outside the box for solutions, and I think most people agree those solutions are with the States. I don't think the Oath Keepers are the only thing we should be focused on. I just believe that our military and law enforcement are going to be put in a situation that will force them into violence against Americans, or into disobeying unconstitutional orders, and possibly having to go a step further.
I would appreciate everyone taking a look at the national Oath Keepers website , and their local chapter to see what you think.

Remember folks they believe in the 2nd amendment and are not coming for your guns.
Glenn Beck wrote a book that probably won’t get a Pulitzer. It was called the “Overton Window.” I looked it up and it perfectly exemplifies what we are seeing here. Everyone should look it up too. For your convenience I’m including a link.

Yet the criminals can keep theirs.
Paging Henry Bowman, your services are [again] required, please pick up the nearest courtesy phone.
(If you don’t know who Mr. Bowman is, you should. Open a google search page, type “unintended consequences” along with “pdf”, examine the top hits, save to disk, and start reading. You’ll be glad you did.)
It’s too bad I don’t live in Missouri, I’d turn in Obama!
“Over a 2:1 ratio of Republican superiority in both houses...”
Missouri actually has a not-so-distant past history of anti-gun policies.
Read John Ross’ “Unintended Consequences” for details...
