Once again, the .223 is described as "high powered". I've even seen recent editorials calling for all firearms that can shoot such an "insanely powerful" cartridge to be banned.

Their goal is total civilian disarmament, one "common sense" step at a time.

Well they are not very bright, and it isn’t going to proceed the way that they envision.

I noticed no reference as to where they come from. I have a pretty good guess.

It’s called Devin should have been in prison during the time that the shooting occurred. If the government is crooked enough to give child abusers a slap on the wrist, they cannot be trusted with gun control.

I am seeking to determine if any of those three Texas legislators are actually American citizens.

They should just pass a law that makes murder illegal. If there is one thing a bad loves to do, it’s following laws.

Seriously, why are so many elected officials so ignorant of reality? Do they take pills? Is there an operation? Statistically there should be more in office with a clue. Something must happen after getting sworn in.

They refuse to acknowledge that gun laws failed. But more will succeed? How and why?

Wasn’t the gun. The allowed a convicted violent, psychotic to roam free.

Need tougher mental illness laws.

Nevarez also characterized Texas’s open carry law as an “oddity” that should be repealed,

Agreed. You shouldn't need a permit for that.

“If any other consumer product resulted in a fraction of the injuries and deaths [that guns do],” Collier said, “we would be scrambling to find solutions.” “If any other consumer product resulted in a fraction of the injuries and deaths [that guns do],” Collier said, “we would be scrambling to find solutions.”

So when will you be introducing the "General Motors prohibition act"?

Methinks the best approach is always to demand a display of the proposed new law.
Being leftists, one can always know that it’ll be badly thought out with absolutely no thought given to one of the only unimpeachable laws: that of unintended consequences.

Thank you for referencing that article Simon Green.

Patriots are reminded that the congressional record shows that Rep. John Bingham, the main author of Section 1 of the 14th Amendment (14A), had included the 2nd Amendment when he read the Bill of Rights as examples of express constitutional protections that 14A applies to the states.

See the 2nd Amendment (Article II) about in the middle of the 2nd column from the page in congressional record which contains Bingham’s speech.

The problem is obviously guns in church. Guns shouldn’t be allowed in church. If guns were banned from church then this nut would not have been able to shoot all those people. I have heard this argument even here where it is assumed that in any crowd of locals there will be some carrying and pastors ask their flocks to get permits and carry.

The “government” dropped the ball on this fiasco on numerous occasions.

How is another “law” going to prevent that?

Well, OK then.

Now we know what "gets your attention" so to speak.

Thanks!

The gun grabbers really needed a “mass shooting” in Texas to give their anti-gun bull**** a kick in the ass. I believe that Arizona will be next. The commie ‘RATS are probably already setting one up. Watch for it.

The “open carry is an oddity” remark is in itself an oddity. If we change the law it should be for Constitutional carry. As a RTC holder, since open carry became legal, I have yet to see ONE non law enforcement person carry openly. The reason is probably because the vast majority of licensees believe their advantage is always carrying concealed, unless hunting, on your own property, etc.

If the left-wing zealots get in power and try to limit gun rights in the future, there will be a REAL revolution.
