I’ll support it as soon as someone shows me that background checks and restrictions have ANY impact on crime.

Until then the whole herd of cowards on both sides can kiss my calloused conservative ass.

The left doesn’t care what the conservatives do on each bill,

as long as another step towards confiscation is made.

I’ll support nothing that comes out that snake pit.

The left could never directly state why they want to confiscate guns, which is simply to be able at some point to assert absolute control. So they need a way to game the general population into following them, and that is the multifaceted argument about crime, mental health, the “if we can save just one life by trashing the constitution” gambit, etc.

But because reality doesn’t support their theory, I.e., gun control does not reduce violent crime, they need a rationalization, and that, it seems to me, is the Feinstein theory of gun market atrophy. This theory is premised on the idea that if they can take guns away from everybody, even the black market will dry up, and gun violence will go away. This is obviously magical thinking, as guns will continue to be made, only now the black market will be international, and very profitable. And as it will require the further corruption of our political class to work, well, all I can say is, if you think its bad now, you ain’t seen nothin yet.
