Congressman Mondaire Jones (D-NY) warned law-abiding gun owners that Democrats will do everything in their power to ensure AR-15s and similar types of firearms are confiscated during a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Thursday.
The hearing was to consider H.R. 7910, the "Protecting Our Kids Act," which would raise the legal age to purchase "certain semiautomatic centerfire rifles or semiautomatic centerfire shotguns" from 18 to 21 with "exceptions." The bill will also "modernize the prohibition on untraceable firearms [and] encourage the safe storage of firearms."
Jones said Congress will pass gun control legislation and nothing, not the fillibuster in the Senate or the Supreme Court, will stop them.
"Enough is enough. Enough of you telling us that school shootings are effective life when every other country like ours has virtually ended. Enough of you blaming mental illness then defunding mental health care in this country. Enough of your thoughts and prayers. Enough. Enough. You will not stop us from advancing the 'Protecting Our Kids' Act today," Jones said. "You will not stop us from passing it in the House next week and you will not stop us. If the filibuster obstructs us, we will abolish it. If the Supreme Court objects, we will expand it. We will not rest until we have taken weapons of war out of circulation in our communities."

I hereby put Democrats and RINOs on notice that if they persist in attacking my constitutional rights I will not stop until their parties are delegated to the dustbin of US history.
Molina labe
Democrat, communist, liberal, progressive all the same.
You will have to pick up a gun to do so.
Molon labe (danged spell check.)
SO the mentally unbalanced are running the country & setting the agenda????
DO NOT THINK SO
What part of “Molon Labe” does he not understand?
He should move to North Korea.
Isn’t Democrat Hunting season coming up soon?
Glenmore beat me Molon Labe.
How about direct ATF to prosecute people that buy guns illegally? And those that commit perjury on background check? Focus on illegal gun buyers first. Next, figure out how to address mentally ill, who kill with knife, gun, or whatever they have present? Third, look at the ZIP Codes with highest rate of violence and figure out how to address that. Thus, leave the other 99% of Americans alone.
Congress needs a lesson in the reasoning behind 2A. They are creeping up on that moment.
I’m your huckleberry.
He needs to get up his horse and lead the troops.
What is a mondaire anyways?
The DNC are all lawless scumbags.
I think the Congressional Black Caucus has 8 gun control bills ready ,LOL .Protect the Kids but we would rather you aborted them first
