Gun Controllers Don’t Really Want that ‘Conversation’

When they say “conversation”, they really mean “confiscation” and when they say “Common sense gun control” they mean “confiscation”.

For some reason I got up early and watched the video before it got scrubbed off the net. By now it is probably hard to find and loaded with viral crap if you can. This guy spent a good 5 minutes shooting 4 or 5 30 round magazines in essentially one perhaps 50x25 foot room. Left the rifle on the floor, went back to his auto and got another rifle and more magazines and went back and spent another 3 minutes making certain no one was still suffering. When he drives away at about ten minutes there is not even a siren to be heard. This video is the best case for “go nowhere unarmed” I have ever seen and I watched ALL the Active Self Protection videos.

You can always tell when a certain issue is beginning to defy common sense when they start with the “let’s have a conversation” whine.

For a liberal,”conversation” means everybody STFU and let me talk.

This guy’s Manifesto is all over the place. He admires China as “having the best system”, loathed Capitalism. He admits to using firearms to spark gun confiscation in the US. If you can find it, read it for yourself. I would hurry because it is probably going to be very difficult to find very soon.

The guy was no conservative. He mocks conservatives for failing to protect anything.

Venezuela got their gun control measures passed just 7 years ago, and now they have a tyrant changing the Constitution to stay in power, and the people are starving and the nation is collapsing during his effort. Taking guns away is a sure sign that you’re about to have some bad people come to power.

“It will be a difficult one. The victims were helpless and unprotected. The police did not protect them.”

And that’s part of the “conversation” I would want to have. The announced theory of the totalitatians is that to “keep us safe”, they have to confiscate guns. But they are never held accountable when they fail to keep us safe.

There is a US Supreme Court case that says the police have no duty to protect us! It took, what, over a year for the police chief responsible for the Parkland shootings to be removed from office? The FBI failed there, too, and no one can touch them.

One reason nobody believes the totalitarians on gun control is that it is a one-way street. They want control, but know there will never be any accountability.

I will be willing to have a “conversation” when the first gun grabber says, “Under my proposed law, if violent crime does not go down 90% in the first year, the governor and all legislators who voted for it will be permanently removed from public office and denied all public pensions and benefits accrued.”

That conversation can only be had in this event. Before, liberals would claim the police would protect you and if guns were illegal, the shooting could not happen.
Muslims will insist on their own defense. Liberals will get tangled up in that. They can’t say to the Muslims “Trust the government” because liberals don’t think Muslims should trust the government. If there are guns in churches, liberals want to know that and have them taken away. If mosques have guns in them, liberals don’t want to know.

Pretty sure all but one over the last ten years were insane liberals. I read a long write up with all the proof laid a couple years back. And they were all on mind altering medications, read write ups about this also.

An 80% Receiver is an inert, hunk of metal. Not unlike the inert hunks found between the ears of gun grabbers.

Believe it or not, some ignorant gun controllers also want to ban 0% AR 15 receivers.

It's like "compromising" with a liberal. They get something they want, and in return, they get less tyranny than they really would have liked. There's no point in trying to negotiate with people who are that crooked, stupid, or both.

I watched it with my wife. The whole time she kept asking-where are the police? Terrible response time there.
