Hey NY ComPost: define “assault weapon.”
Well, that ends that.
You can bet part of the “solution” will entail rounding up white males. Which is going to be a fairly “sticky wicket”, seems to me.
Hell no. NYPost can get bent.
They always say that only the military and the police should have “weapons of war.” To that I always ask: Against whom are the police planning to wage war? That usually results in a deer-in-the-headlight look from them.

Unilateral disarmament,
Abortion on demand
Condoms for the kiddies
All across the land...
Some things haven't changed.
Oh wait. They've accomplished two out of the three.
The 2nd Amendment doesn’t exist so that citizens can hunt or go to shooting ranges. It exists so that we can oppose and defeat tyranny, its imposition attempted from the outside or from the inside. Citizens deserve to keep and bear the most powerful weapons available.
To them, any thing that fires a projectile.
first you ban assault-type weapons and then .......
once you crack the door there will be an unrelenting pressure to ban all others.
Weapons of war are exactly what our founders wanted us to have to protect ourselves from a potentially tyrannical government. Weapons of war were the actual point of the Second Amendment. Our Revolution would have gone nowhere if the regular citizens/Minutemen/militia men were not already armed, and our Founders of course knew that. An unarmed populace is a controlled populace.
That bears repeating.
So how many “so-called” assault weapons are already purchased, owned, reside in the hands of the American people?
The ban in the 1990s just banned new purchases and imports.
Since that was lifted, millions have been sold.
Sounds like the New Yorkers at the Post just don’t want a sales ban, but a confiscation.
That will start a civil war.
Take Guns and these nut jobs will be ramming cars into bars. The Ohio shooter was suspended in high school for putting out a KILL list and RAPE list of people he wanted to hurt. He was a nut job many years ago.
Silly people. Would it matter if the shooter had 6 clips in his pocket instead of a drum magazine?
Understand that when the MSM / liberals ref to weapons of war, they mean:
AK’s and AR’s
internal magazine rifles
Bolt action rifles
lever action rifles
pump action
breach / break action
as well as .... revolvers, pistols, and anything that goes bang.
Because every single one of those actions rifles and pistols have been used in war.
Never forget that the Left LOVES guns. They just dont want YOU to have one.
Where was this when obama and Hillary were killing 400+ people in Mexico with weapons sold to the drug cartels?
Sure NY Post, when Hollywood actors and their award shows are no longer protected by the above, banning guns that you don't like citizens having may be worth considering.
As long as the Left wields propaganda in ways that would make Gobbels and Madame Mao proud we need weapons if war.
Once they are no longer the cold dead hand of the old Soviet Union still grasping at the throats of the Republic, eagerly and freely Useful Idiots for whomever comes along as well (such as the Muslim Brotherhood), it would no longer matter that we’ve got weapons of war.
Only would be tyrants and the corrupt fear an armed population.
Today’s weekly update from 1 of the cities that have the strictest gun laws run by Democrats that no one gives a crap about because it doesn’t fit the MSM/democrat narrative: Chicago shootings leave 40 shot, 3 fatally; Mt. Sinai Hospital closes emergency room
Now WHY is that? Is it because it’s just Black on black murder and shootings? When are the MSM going to go through these folks social media and tell US all about them/Dem?
