We liability laws for cars and trucks. Thing is, automakers will be next.

No thanks, I find it sufficient to simply express an opinion.

Sorry if that bothers you.

But not very.

This is hardly new news. It is only recently that Democrats have publicly admitted it.

What the Democrats and the media don't understand is that for many years there has been more firearms in the USA than people. Which, if you subtract those who are minors, those that are convicted felons, those who are addicted to alcohol or drugs, those who have been involved in domestic abuse, etc. (AKA are not allowed to legally own or possess a firearm), you have multiple firearms per legal owner. Also recently the number of concealed carry permits in the USA has now exceeded 9% of the population. So unless you are somewhere like California, NYC, WA DC, or Chicago, the chances are that about 1 in 10 people on the street are concealed carry holders. The nice part is that the number of concealed carry permits has been skyrocketing and especially among women and people of color.

I think that Democrats are going to find out that they are on the wrong sided of the ballot regarding 2nd Amendment rights.

You did a more thorough job of addressing the point I was reaching for in my post #15. I am now beginning to visualize Biden and his ilk as wannabe King George IIIs and “his” Rat party as a disreputable parliament that resulted in a certain 1776 affair. Your point is well taken; and I hope and pray the “ballot” will resolve the issue, at least for now.

the left always operates transferring responsibility from the criminals to their targets

because their targets are usually their enemies and non socialists

Is the NRA doing any ads to this effect?

THE LEFT INTENDS TO INVALIDATE 2A BY WHATEVER MEANS NECESSARY.

Do not lie to yourself, any vote for the left is a vote to eliminate 2A.

The most anti-gun senator who has ever sat in the senate is Harris.

“Democrats Are Coming for Your Guns”

And if they’re not careful, they’ll get ‘em.

What board are you talking about?

Are you drunk?

120 million gun owners will decide on the survival of the 2nd amendment. But it helps to have Amy Coney Barrett in on the assist.

I'd love to get on this 'board'.

First thing I would do is get rid of 'USA Conservative'.

I'd probably keep 'w1n1' around, just for entertainment.
