Non-starter. He will lose support from this.

I’ll be happy to not vote for you too, Donald.

If you attack my freedom after I have done nothing, then f*** you , you are my enemy.

Which of the last 20 mass shootings in the U.S. would your proposed law have stopped?

When the answer is "ZERO", SHUT UP ABOUT YOUR PROPOSED LAW!!!

It’s good we’ve established that mass shootings are caused by a lack of laws and that passing more laws will eliminate them.

I propose that we pass comprehensive legislation that makes it illegal to carry out a mass shooting. That will take care of everything!

Wisconsin and Pennsylvania were about +1% each in 2016. Michigan was a coin toss we won. Lots of gun owners in those states...

Obama’s response to shootings was to have a study done that found that firearms are used widely by we the people to defend ourselves.

Trump’s so far is to ban shoulder assists, red flag laws and (pending).

Obama was better on the 2a.

“He will lose support from this.”

So, we are going to vote for one of the Democrats from the clown car?

Raise the adult age to 25. Once you reach the age of 25 you could then drink booze, buy guns, and vote.

Butnt before then.

I am sure this is as meaningful as his super duper health care plan he’s supposed to release this month, and about a likely to happen.

What other second amendment groups (besides the NRA) should one belong to? I'm looking for suggestions here.

I know this is all political kabuki, but I haven't seen American communists this revved up about disarmament in a long time.

The President, the rest of the GOP in Washington, and pretty much everyone else who hasn’t already, TURN OFF CNN. It is Fake News. NO DEALS WITH OUR 2A RIGHTS!

This is a political setup by the Dems through antifa. They are setting Trump up for the 2020 election.

We hear time and time again all the terrible things that trump is going to do, yet when it comes time, trump always does the right thing. I am happy to wait to see what is done vs all this drama and whining over what the msm says he will do.

After the Democrat government assault at Waco that killed children.....

No gun control.

Never.

The Democrats want to commit politicide on us.

The only thing preventing it is that they are afraid of our weapons.

Background check question #1: Are you now or have you ever been a member of a violent terrorist group, such as Antifa?
