Beto O’Rourke: AR-15 Owners Should Not Be Able to Keep Them
Breitbart ^ | 06/01/2022 | Awr Hawkins

Posted on 06/01/2022 7:53:20 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

During a campaign event on May 21, Texas Democrat gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke expressed his belief that Americans who own AR-15s should not be able to keep them.

On May 31, FOX News highlighted the comments as part O’Rourke’s ongoing effort against the guns. In the comments, O’Rourke stressed his position that no one should be able “to purchase an AR-15 or AK-47,” and added, “I don’t think that the people who have them right now in civilian use should be able to keep them.”

"AR-15 Owners Should Not Be Able to Keep Them"

Equals "I would ignore Clause 3 of Article I, Section 9 of the United States Constitution."

"No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed."

Well, Beeto, I think AR15 owners should get another, to have a spare. And my opinion is just as important as yours is,and much more in line with our Constitution.

Well, Beeto, I don’t think demo-commies should be allowed to run for any political office, control any company or reproduce. So there.

Hasn’t Beat-off O’Rourke changed his position on this frequently? I remember him recently lying about his support for the 2nd Amendment, and saying “we are not coming to take your guns”. People who oppose freedom do not understand defending it.

But why not? It’s not an AR 15 style platform?

There is some sheriff on record saying that if it ever come to confiscation, he’ll deputize every legal gun owner in his county to go up against who may attempt to do the confiscating.

That might be true, especially in Texas where they seem particularly scared.

Then again, when’s the last time you ever heard of a cop going against the ‘law’.
