“The murder weapons are in the hands of the “Urban Demographic”. He dare not crack down on those.”


Since a large number of murder weapons in the hands of the ‘Urban Demographic’ are not held legally in the first place, there are no lists of who has what. Until they are caught with them, they are free to have and use as many as they like. Actually pursuing them would, of course, be racist.

So much easier to go after a guy who legally bought his in South Dakota.

We could all gather in DC to return them to the White House personally.

You’re caught with a gun without a serial you’ll likely get 10 years.

"Those who do not comply would face up to 10 years in federal prison, and a potential $10,000 fine."

Just like what FDR did to folks during the Depression going off the gold standard: same fine same jail time.

I foresee lots of tragic accidents coming if so ...

Parsing. He’s not raising taxes.

Expect new “fees” on everything!

MASSIVE fees...

Listen, if Biden were to get in there with both houses of Congress under RAT control, he wouldn't need to do any of the machinations you listed because once the court got packed with six additional leftist justices, there would be no 2nd Amendment. Congress would simply pass a law saying it doesn't cover private ownership or however they would want to say it, Biden would sign it, and the packed SCOTUS would rule what they did was constitutional. Game over.

Doesn't mean you wouldn't be able to fight it, but you'd have to do it as a part of a war because there'd no longer be a Constitutional protection. You may be inclined to argue states' rights on the basis that the 2nd only applies to the federal government leaving the states free to do as they please, but that's (a) tenuous at best given incorporation, and (b) any dispute would be ruled on by the packed SCOTUS who would certainly not turn around and overrule themselves.

Bottom line: Keep Biden out of the White House.

It's definitely nothing to laugh at...but it's less a question of "not enforcing" than it is a solid 5 votes in SCOTUS to strike it down.

But this may end up getting bloody at some point, because most of the gun owners I know will not register.

In a divided America like we have now, I see Red state govs resisting like blue state govs have sometimes resisted PT.

All my HOME-MADE lowers have a serial number - 0001.

It’s not illegal to manufacture your own firearm.

Our sheriff said he doesn’t have the manpower to protect us all so we’re basically on our own; locked and loaded.

You are right about 1 thing, they will TRY either next year, or in 10 years. We are headed for a hot civil war anyway.

1. Joe Biden can’t pass laws by himself. A Firearms Act would require Congress. If the demand flip the Senate, then he has a chance.

2. This kind of monetary impediment to a protected right (see 2nd Amendment) would immediately be challenged in court, and if it gets to the Scotus, it would be declared unconstitutional.

My brother in the army reserve said he would not enforce any draconian gun orders. And he is a moderate liberal. That is where the foriegn troops come in.

If biden gets in and dems get congress totally, I expect them to pack the USSC before they go for guns, so that might give us an extra 6 months.

The 34 NFA, 68 ban, 86 machine gun ban, and the 94 AWB are/were all unconstitutional, but only due to the sunset was the 94 one dropped. If they get congress, they won’t make the same mistake twice.
