DES MOINES, Iowa -- As the president pushes Congress to pass gun control laws, Iowa State Representative Bruce Hunter (D) Des Moines is planning to propose gun control laws of his own.

"I agree with President Obama. If what we've done in the past hasn't gotten anything done it's time to make a political issue out of it," Hunter said. "Either put up or shut up but we need to do something."

By that, Hunter says he will push for universal background checks for all gun transfers, improved mental health care in Iowa, and when approved by a judge, gun seizures. "If a police officer or a family member knows that a person shouldn`t have a gun license or should have a gun taken away from them for whatever reason and can convince a judge of that, we have something in place where we can take a gun away from somebody," Hunter said.

Any excuse to disarm the law-abiding citizen. The radicals have never wanted an armed public for the very reason the Second Amendment was added to the Bill of Rights. It gets in the way of tyranny.

Have we heard about the latest new laws in the city of Chicago to take guns away from drug gang members that set record homicides? Where are the cries of disarmament from those in charge of Chicago...and that used to live there??? What? Dead silence??? Judges have plenty of laws to enforce to disarm those that commit crimes with guns. And they do not do it. Anyone surprised??

The final act that caused HRH George III’s problem with the with the colonists was when he ordered the commander of 700 redcoats to “be a good chap, and collect the arms and ammunition from the rabble at Lexington.”

Once they do this, it’s all over. This bonehead Nazi is making a big, big mistake.

Cop: Your honor we need to take away his guns.

Judge: Warrant granted.

The Soviets made frequent use of mental disorder diagnoses to eliminate their opposition. Quite a few vets have been diagnosed with PTSD and depression. Many in the general public have been on antidepressants at one time or another for a variety of reasons. Now with 0-care, and electronic medical records, the Feds can see if someone is on an anti-depressant drugs and call for a court ordered confiscation.

We have to resist the mental health Trojan horse approach to confiscation.

“He even looks “gay”.”

Actually he looks “democrat” but that’s a distinction without a difference.

Dems can’t find the resources to deport millions of illegal aliens but they can find the resources to confiscate guns from American citizens

Dems give nuclear weapons to people shouting “Death to America” week after week, yet want to disarm law abiding Americans.

If that isn’t Treason, then I don’t know what is.

You’ve got that right -
Obola signed his twentieth+ Executive Order establishing a full government agency behavioral analysis database on all citizens.
http://www.forbes.com/sites/waynecrews/2015/10/04/new-obama-executive-order-establishes-government-as-helicopter-parent/

Then, go to thedatamap.org and see how over 8000 organizations collect and trade All patient health care data.
Data brokers are unregulated punk whores in this country.
All federal and state agencies will or already do know everything about you.
This Sept 15 Executive Order is a funding formality to create a massive gov’t inter-agency merged with extensive data broker database for behavioral data analytic profiling.
Wondering if conservatives will be on a red list?
See you at the camps!

“I think they should remember the small posse of vigilantes that showed up at Clive Bundy’s farm, and then multiply that times millions.”

Gun owners could pool resources. Let’s say one owner on the “list” agrees to store the weapons and ammo of several or many other fellow gun owners. Suppose that person has a reasonably good defensible position (trenches, bobby traps) and a few others with him and close by. And suppose that others could be alerted and quickly come in for support. The Feds/state would have to resort to something more than a SWAT team. As long as they could hold out and keep the public informed as at Bundy, the Feds would probably back off.

If the Feds did use overwhelming force, you’d have another Alamo.

“Background” checks will always turn up something to prevent one from obtaining a firearm, if that is their purpose. And this is. be very leery of those who advocate them.

Getting hell, they have been for some time. It is coming and it won’t be very long from now. As the Republican Party becomes weaker, more corrupt, and more like Democrats. The ones who value freedom are going to choose how they will die: Disarmed and on their knees as slaves or, on their feet fighting as free men and women. There is no third option. AS Joshua of the Bible said, “Choose you this day....”
