Notice how all of those proposals are limited, incremental moves toward making gun ownership provisional on government approval.

None of them would *require* immediate, mass confiscation.

But over the next 50 years, they would narrow gun ownership considerably.

Once they get it down to where it is no longer a political force, they do the mass "buyback" mandatory turn-in.

They won't *come and take them* from you. They figure to have your great-grandson turn them in voluntarily.

If liberty loving citizens allow anti Americans fifty years of voice then liberty loving citizens deserve to come up short.

It won’t take them 20 years

First 100 Days if they take the Senate and white house

[Howie66]

They have been working in that direction since FDR.

They won't *come and take them* from you.

I disagree, these tyrants are power hungry and citizens possessing firearms keeps them from their ultimate totalitarian wet dream.

You’re not wrong, but they want them much faster than that. What you’re talking about started in the 30s. They want their utopia, and now. That’s why the globe is such a mess, they are pushing so hard.

"None of them would *require* immediate, mass confiscation."

They're planning on moving as quickly as possible with all of their gun control plans, if they get a Senate majority along with the White House.

From the article (and from Democrat documents):
"...but also a provision that could require every AR-15 rifle to be registered under the National Firearms Act of 1934 (NFA)."

And remember police procedures along with local media partnerships. Been there, too, during the 1990s. I know exactly how confiscations would be done in conjunction with other very minor criminal matters that often should be civil matters (including domestics and/or false accusations from emotionally volatile, renegade family members, neighbors, acquaintances,...). Local media would vilify arrestees to extremes.

I'm advising to get the vote out in each community with earnest tomorrow.

That’s exactly right. The smartest play is just wait another few generations until we are farther down the cultural slope. Don’t push any one outrageous law too soon and so trigger people risking all they have to stop it, or even triggering a meaningful political backlash. The people who would actually risk everything would decrease every year. In 2090 they probably won’t care if they take those old guns, much less getting off the virtual reality couch to do anything about it.

I don’t know if they are that smart. If they grab total political power now, they might not be able to hold back. But it’s not like they are known for pulling any one outrageous thing too soon, there’s a reason they didn’t come out with ‘gay marriage’ in 1980 or abortion in 1920.
