Eric Swalwell Has a Plan for Handguns Once AR-15s Are Confiscated

During an appearance on CNN’s SE Cupp Unfiltered, Democrat presidential hopeful Eric Swalwell made clear he has a plan for handguns he will pursue after AR-15s are confiscated.

Cupp began the segment on Saturday with Swalwell by telling him she appreciates the fact that he is one of the few leftist candidates who admits he plans to take away an entire category of firearms.

Cupp pointed out that “assault weapons” are involved in “less that five percent of gun murders” in America. She then asked Swalwell why he is “stopping at ‘assault weapons’ …and not confiscating handguns, which account for the vast majority of gun deaths.”

Swalwell made clear he also has a plan for handguns, but he is focused on getting rid of “assault weapons” first.

If you buy a gun in 2019, the leftists will have you on a list until at least 2039.

These leftists fully expect to seize absolute control in just a few years.

Their expectations are probably justified.

“I have plans for my handguns”

In 1776 patriots could hid behind trees to save American freedom.

In 2019, leftists can use rocket-propelled grenades against patriots hiding behind trees.

The civil war has to be fought economically.

The targets must be the DJIA, S&P and NASDAQ indexes.

Mutual funds can be used to prop up the stock market.

I’ll not be buying mutual funds.

I gave my gun to a cop. Here is his/her description:

Have the feds and the locals quarreling.

And will important politicians still have armed security details?

Will the police still be carrying guns two years after the surrender date?

Will gun control will be a failure like 110 years of increasingly ineffective recreational drug control efforts?

Remember, no politician likes to admit their pet program is going to fail.

Isn't SwelledHead the one who threatened gun owners with a nuclear bomb attack if they didn't turn over their guns?

The logic it takes to make a threat like that, proves he's mentally retarded.

But then he's a democRAT.

We should all be “focused” on getting rid of scum like Swinewell.

Blissfully unaware...

Intellectual laziness... It's the result of our dismal schools and universities these days. What they've really become are indoctrination mills.

Swalwell is about as near as one can get to a “NPC politician” or “zombie politician” or “MKultra politician”. And so easy to dislike.

We definitely need to support him in the open primaries with our extra vote and some cash...

With him/her/x as demoncrat candidate, George McGovern and the pygmy tank commander would finally be forgotten...

A vote for ANY Democrat, whether it be in a local, state or federal election, is a vote against America!
