Take it one step further & ban all liberals. If that would save one life wouldn’t it be worth it?

“rocket launcher,”


WTF? I think that this guy needs to be tested for drugs, and then given a thorough psych evaluation.

The democRATS keep making fools of themselves after there is a multiple-killing gun incident.

This bill will go nowhere but it makes them and their pussy-hatted constituents, "feel" better.

Shows they are "doing something".

“How is it any different than the 1994 AWB?”

It doesn’t have a sunset so it would be permanent forever.
It doesn’t ban bayonet lugs and folding stocks, it bans all semi automatic rifles and pistols that have a detachable magazine.

156 out of 193 house democrats think permanently banning all semi automatic rifles and pistols that have a detachable magazine is “common sense gun safety” and they think writing and signing this BS is better than actually working and running a country

No confiscation without registration. If confiscation begins, then civil war begins.

Broward County should serve as a warning to every gun owner. Police are incompetent, unable to protect innocent life, and yet STILL they want our guns.

(2) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to the possession,21 sale, or transfer of any semiautomatic assault weapon otherwise lawfully possessed under Federal law on the date of enactment of the Assault Weapons Ban of 2018

How nice of them to exempt transfers of existing "assault weapons." In some versions I've seen, possession was grandfathered, but transfer, even to a family member, was not, essentially removing 'assault weapons' from circulation in one generation.

This law, were it to be enacted, would simply drive up the cost of 'pre-ban' 'assault weapons' even more so than the AWB of '94 did.

How are they going to confiscate these? Go house to house? King George tried confiscating flint locks in 1775. It resulted in 3% of the population acutually revolting. Today that would be 10,500,000 rising up. The cops would be hard pressed to challenge that.

I’m the Mother of a Murdered Child, he was Beat to death with a 2 ft section of Fence Post, M1 was plead down to M2, RINO A$$ AG took 2 yrs, 20 yr sentence, first parole hearing 10 months later, 5 more, eked out 6 before they paroled him after including the 2 yrs in jail at 12.5 yrs. Walks free, I CCW as I’m his #1 target.

Besides I live to close to Mempis crime capitol of TN. Even if it is the next county over we get spill over crime.

I have a Life Time Permit. I can still hit what I aim at.

If guns can be grandfathered in before the ban, there will be another Obamaesque rush to buy.

I too turn 70 this year. My prayers for your safety, my condolences for your child who is in Heaven now, & my hopes that the murderer’s life ends soon in like manner.

One gun crime: all gun owners are to blame & must be punished with the forfeiture of their property.

One jihadi bombing: shouts of “this has nothing to do with Muslims!”

There are far safer places in Tennessee than Memphis. Mom & Dad retired to Clarksville in 1978. Dad’s gone, Mom is in assisted living where we live & I have a house to sell. Far enough away from Nashville.

A nice widow not far from here says we can come to her farm & shoot anytime. Monthly drill now.

God bless.

Liberals say, “If confiscating all guns saves just one life, it’s worth it”. Well then, if deporting all illegals saves just one life, wouldn’t that be worth it?

Illegals can be turned into Democrat voters. Guns can't, and their owners mostly can't. That's the real difference.
