And to think, between 1962 and 1984 they said they ONLY wanted to register and ban handguns. “Rifles will not be affected!”
The democrat lies we have been told over the years...
1962 We ONLY want to register handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1964, We ONLY want to register ALL firearms, not ban them.
1968 We ONLY want to register all guns, and ban the import of foreign Saturday Night Specials, and 5-shot bolt action army surplus rifles! (they got the ban).
1970, We ONLY want to ban small American handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1976 We ONLY want to ban ALL handguns! Rifles will not be affected!
1981, Actress Lee Grant on GMA screams...”THE NRA IS A RIFLE ORGANIZATION! THEY SHOULD GIVE UP THEIR HANDGUNS AND THEY CAN KEEP THEIR RIFLES!”
1984, they made a grab for the rifles, and missed, but played their hand.
Josh Sugarmann laid it out plainly...
1988,Josh Sugarmann, of the National Council to Ban Handguns tells how to ban rifles.
“Assault weapons’ menacing looks, coupled with the public’s confusion over
fully-automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons
—anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine
gun— can only increase the chance of public support for restrictions on
these weapons.”
– Josh Sugarmann
Gun owners now know we are always up against a stacked deck when it comes to negotiating with democrats.
So much for democrat promises.
This is the club McSally of AZ should be pounding Kelly with. Wrote her to that effect. Yeah, I know, but hope springs eternal.
There’s a measure on the ballot in my county that would prohibit county assets from being used to enforce “laws” like these.
I was being sarcastic DoughtyOne should have noted that. Not all that many have declared they would not enforce unconstitutional mandate but like youI certainly hope there are many more. Currently the establishment doesn't seem to have any trouble getting authorities to arrest people unwilling to wear a mask or social distance. They have been in churches, even arresting some church member for singing in the street.
I fear we have troubling times ahead but at my age they won't be my prime concern. I am even beginning to regret my daily reading of the news here on FR and I haven't missed a day since I first came here even as a lurker before I joined the fray. Oh well I will see you tomorrow I guess.
Monsieur Bidet,
The only war that our “AR-15s” will be involved in will be the one that you start.
I know what you mean.
I’ll be here. Smile...
