O'Rourke Believes Americans Will Willingly Comply with Gun Confiscation, Won't Need Police
Western Journal ^ | Sept 9, 2019 | C. Douglas Golden

Posted on 09/08/2019 2:53:21 PM PDT by upchuck

... That’s pretty much what former Democratic Rep. O’Rourke’s campaign is about at this point. He’s seen a revival of his fortunes by jumping in front of the cameras whenever there’s a mass shooting and saying that it’s time to confiscate America’s AR-15s and other so-called “assault weapons” via a mandatory “buyback.”

And does he think there’s going to be any trouble getting Mr. and Mrs. America to turn them all in? No, of course not. When he was asked about the logistics of his plan in Manchester, New Hampshire, he said that his mandatory so-called “buyback” plan wouldn’t include law enforcement coming to your house if you didn’t comply.

“No. I don’t see the law enforcement going door to door,” O’Rourke said in response to a question at the New Hampshire Democratic Party Convention on Saturday.

“I see Americans complying with the law. I see us working with gun owners, non-gun owners, local, county, state, federal law enforcement to come up with the best possible solution. I have yet to meet an owner of an AR-15 who thinks it’s OK that we have these kind of mass killings in this country.”

” I have yet to meet an owner of an AR-15 who thinks it’s OK that we have these kind of mass killings in this country.”

I wonder what Puta O’Rourke is putting in his Kool-Aid that makes him so delusional?

I was looking to buy an AR 15, but now, I think I should go with an AR 10.

“I see us working with gun owners, non-gun owners, local, county, state, federal law enforcement to come up with the best possible solution.” Beato O’Rourke

Translation: “My Plan is that Someone Else will come up with a plan.”

This guy should have stayed in the Clown Car.

"I have yet to meet an owner of an AR-15 who thinks it’s OK that we have these kind of mass killings in this country.”

Which says that these people aren't the problem. So, why ban their weapons?

Moron! Even in CA, CRand NY people are complying with msg bans an registration requirements only to the tune of about 3%

For that matter, when I lived in NJ and Florio banned “assault weapons” and mags of over 15 rounds, I purposely went to PA and NY to by 30-rounders. Not only didn’t I comply, I actively violated the law. Oh, and I will do the same again...my family was severely victimized (including dozens murdered) by regimes That had gun control (Soviet Russia and the Nazis), and I will NOT be deprived of the means to effectively defend myself and my family.

Irish Bob the fake Hispanic doesn’t even know his own state let alone most of the country between the coasts.

None of your weapons have bayonet lugs?

Contrary to what OBUNGHOLE said in his debate with MYTH ROMNEY, BAYONETS are still used to great effect when ammo runs low.

Hell, in much of the US, just try and order police to confiscate weapons, and they will tell you to go get knotted.

I can imagine little Beto and his peers throwing a tantrum.

“I *order* you to arrest those people! Obey me! Obey me!”, like some cheesy movie villain screaming at his henchmen.

If they don't need the police, who's stopping them from doing it now?

I have yet to meet an owner of an AR-15 who thinks it’s OK that we have these kind of mass killings in this country.

Note that he doesn't say that he has met an owner of an AR-15 who would turn it in under his proposal.

Plenty of supporters here on FR

Yep, exactly. Same people OK with Trump's stupid bump stock ban will be the ones helping jack-boots find their guns ("Oh here's one I forgot to turn in.")

Nope, I'd rather die on my feet than become a slave. That's why I'm a lifetime GOA member, not an NRA.

“Mandatory buyback.”

An oxy-moronic term invented by real morons.

YOU MUST voluntarily surrender all instruments of your self defense! And do it NOW! Or else we’ll...uh...think of something...and you WONT like it ONE BIT!

Old Beatoff also believes in Flying Saucers, Leprechauns and that “he is the one he’s been waiting for”.

He obviously has never heard of the Colfax Massacre, AA won’t give up all their guns and shouldn’t.
