Whenever a tragedy occurs involving guns, it’s almost a guarantee that a liberal Democrat will immediately put pen to paper and create a bunch of new gun control laws with the intent of shoving them through Congress.
Guns scare liberals. However, their fear isn’t focused on gun violence occurring in schools, but on the ability of a free people to protect themselves against a tyrannical government, which they for some strange reason, seem to support.
Well it seems that Sen. Dianne Feinstein in California is never one to let a good shooting go to waste, as immediately following the mass murder perpetrated by Eilliot Roger, the liberal Democrat introduced a new gun control bill in Congress.
The new bill calls for the allowance of “firearms restraining orders” on any individual who is considered to be a threat.
The government, of course, will be the ones who decide the criteria of what makes an existing or potential gun owner a threat.
From the Gateway Pundit, via Right Wing News:
The bill would prevent an individual from purchasing new guns and give law enforcement the right to confiscate existing guns if the individual is determined to be a threat.
The scariest part of this proposed legislation is the idea that anyone can ask for one of these restraining orders. So, for example, if a gun control activist got ahold of a sign-in sheet from a local gun range, they could start spamming the judicial system with these “gun violence prevention warrants,” claiming that they believe these individuals to be about to commit a crime, and send a squad of police officers to their doorstep to confiscate their firearms. For their own good, of course.
This is nothing more than an attempt by liberals to make further headway in completely banning guns altogether. There is little doubt that legislation like this will be abused by those in positions of authority as a means of silencing the opinion of those who don’t “go along with the program.”
Gun rights activists need to not only stay informed on this bill, but do everything possible to ensure that it doesn’t pass. Being able to own a gun and protect yourself from criminals and government is a fundamental right, and it must be fought for with vigor.
Please share this article on Facebook and Twitter if you support the Second Amendment and will fight for your right to own a firearm.
FR POSTER = Threat?
I would love to hear a GOP candidate talk about implementing a Swiss / Israeli style forward deployment of assault weapons to the entire Militia (Title 10 section 311 - males 17 to 45). I’d also like to see that age limit moved to 65.
Put the Army Reserve in charge of the purchase/production and deployment of arms. I figure the cost to purchase plus distribution would be less than $1,000 per person. Based upon some very loose interpretation of US demographics, I am assuming that would be about 100 million rifles.
Issue one M16 to each Militia member. Use the drivers license and voter registration rolls to identify eligible members. Require the rolls to be corrected where errors are found. Felony conviction would make a person ineligible to participate in the program.
Require an 8 hr safety, maintenance, operation and firing class to receive your firearm (run by Reserve or Guard units).
If you didn’t have enough arms at first, require this as part of Selective Service Registration. At the end of the 8 year time period, Registrants could retain the M16 if they were so inclined.
Require birth month presentation of the firearm (for inspection) and individual annually for verification. Person could opt out anytime after Selective Service time requirements have been met.
Admission to psych ward by court order or conviction of a felony would require the return of the rifle to be reissued to the next individual. And would bar the individual from further participation.
Make it a felony to steal, or possess such a rifle that was not issued to you.
“It’s her security detail you’d have to disarm. I’m sure she doesn’t carry personally.”
Yes she does, with a permit!
Wow I’m shocked. and amazed.
I guess it makes her even more hypocritical.
I think DiFi has been packing since Harvey Milk and Moscone were shot. But that’s not acceptable for you and me.
Followed by Muslims.....
At least this:

I think it should behoove everyone to not store all of their guns in one place.
That’s why you need several secret caches.
normally I read FR in lynx. no graphics. I’d have
missed this entirely. It would be funny except its true.
Unfortunately for the Gun Grabbers, we now have a history lesson to look at in the UK and Australia.
IIRC, they first did Registration, with the solemn promise that it wouldn't lead to Confiscation.
That history show us that was a LIE of the first order.
Something everyone need to be mindful of and act accordingly.
Perhaps she can get the Democrat Senators from NC, AK, CO, IA, MI, NH, MN and VA to be cosponsors? That would help those races, no?
That, plus the fact that the Japanese simply DID NOT HAVE the amphibious capability to attack the US mainland. Nor enough troops.
Our southern borders are non existent and the terrorists are stronger than ever and the democrats want us to give up our guns.
Oh crikes she does this almost every year. Usually it just gets killed in committee.
“What firearms Officer?”
