The kids may be calling for the guns, but the Dems know better. They will go after them VERY GRADUALLY...by making ownership more and more expensive, restrictive, and risky.

And they will NEVER go door-to-door to grab them. They don’t have to. They’ll just make them illegal to own...so if you use them, you’ll commit a felony. If someone is breaking into your house, you better find another way to defend it, your gun is useless, as you’ll spend the rest of your life in jail if you kill him (and maybe just 20 years in jail if you shoot at him, but don’t harm his seriously). Also, expect 10 years if your ex, girlfriend, ‘friend’, or anyone else rats you out, and no, the courts will create a 4th Amendment loophole to enable these searches.

And that’s just risk end. They’ll also turn the screws on the arms manufacturers. Sure, you can own a Glock, but if you want to do it legally, you’d better have a few thousand sitting around to buy it. Obviously the same for ammunition. Hillary made it clear that she intended to hold manufactures liable for crimes committed with their products - a few lawsuits, then no more insurance, and then that’s the end for them.

That’s probably enough for now. So when the Dems promise to NOT take away your guns, remember, they won’t need to. So any VOTE or non-vote that helps the Democrats, such as voting third party or staying home...puts us that much CLOSER to the Dems being able to get to work on their long-term plan of disarming of the country.

Gradually isn't working very well for them.

The DemoRats have been pushing for gun control for decades.
This is how it has been working out for them.

• The percentage of Americans who believe we have a right to own guns has increased.
• The number of guns owned per gun owner has increased.
• The amount of ammunition possessed per gun owner has increased.
• Concealed carry laws have spread from state to state like wildfire.
• Castle Doctrine laws have been passed in numerous states.
• Stand Your Ground laws have been passed in many states.
• Gun rights lobbying groups have become a cottage industry.
• In the worst economy since the Great Depression the firearms industry can't keep up with orders or expand fast enough.
• 65.4 Million Guns Bought Since Obama Took Office, 91% More Than Bush's First-Term Total 2/12/2013
• 46,455 Background Checks For Gun Purchases Each Day Under Obama 5/3/2013

And in the last two months... (Nov. 2012 and Dec. 2012)

• Americans Buy Enough Guns in Last Two Months to Outfit the Entire Chinese and Indian Armies 1/14/2013
• NRA membership has increased by 250,000. (Jan. 2013)

• July Gun Sales Crush Previous Record (2.2 million checks) 8/2/2016

More Americans buy more guns...

• October (2016) gun sales see massive spike, set yet another record 11/2/2016

We just love guns...

  Applications submitted to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System exceeded 2.7 million last month
  —
  the busiest March on record and the third highest ranking month since the FBI began keeping track in 1998.

KEEP FLAPPIN' YOUR LIPS, DEMOCRATS! WE'LL BUY MILLIONS MORE. ;-)

[[They will go after them VERY GRADUALLY...by making ownership more and more expensive, restrictive, and risky.]]

You are exactly right bob- in NY they just arrested a man who had a gun collection including the banned ‘assault weapons’- simply because someone turned him in- He is now a felon for simply having had a gun collection and owning what should be perfectly legal gun related items- however NY made them illegal- such as larger ammunition magazines

Little by little- they are turning gun owners into felons- banning guns and gun related items, and pretty soon- ALL semi-automatic guns will be considered ‘weapons of war’ and deemed illegal to own

I agree on the Dims tactics.

Slowly, drip by drip(or how to cook a live frog)

And there won’t be a big gun battle by the ATF or similar agency.

They will get yours when investigating another incident at your house, say a burglary or break-in, a ex-spouse rating on you or a public display of your now illegal weaponry.

Any step in their direction will be a victory in their eyes.Raising the age, limiting magazine capacity, loading capacity, etc.

The only exception I would tolerate is the “bump stock” which I see as an gimmick and not a particular safe or weapon weaponry enhancement. Just a gimmick to show on u-tube to waste ammo over a fun weekend.
