The shifting sands of Democrat gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke’s gun control plans have solidified, for now, into a pledge to buy back AR-15s and AK-47s from Texans if the state legislature will support doing it.

O’Rourke spoke with Texas Tribune CEO Evan Smith on Saturday and KVUE reported O’Rourke’s comments.

That is totally correct.

There was a saying that they would not invade the US because “there would be a gun under every blade of grass”

Sounds like Beetle to me, but that’s an insult to insects everywhere.

Beta, aka drunk driving Irish Bob, you’re never going to come close to winning so it doesn’t matter what drivel you spew.

One million each. Maybe I would move to Texas to avail myself of his buy-back. Then back home, those millions would buy lots of new ARs and AKs.

He has a family, children, and mountains of money, yet all he is laser-focused on in life is wanting to be in a position of power so he can run other people's lives...

*smh*, but that there is a Leftist for you.

Why would anyone sell a gun to someone who used to call himself “Psychedelic Warlord”?

And if they can realize their wet dream of a digital currency, turn off the ability to buy ammo. Just like turning off a faucet

Don’t worry about that, you won’t have anything to put it in, as your digital currency ‘card’ will not work until you’ve accounted for all of your weapons, and then turned them in.

You can’t “buy-back” what you didn’t sell me in the first place. If you want to buy ITV rom me, my starting price is $1,000,000 but there might be some wiggle room.

Or not.

What’s really discouraging about this is that in a sane world this clown would get about 35% of the vote.

I’m predicting this is not going to be a walkway for Abbott. He will win, but it’s not going to be the overwhelming landslide it ought to be.

In some respects that’s good.
Otherwise Beta and his donors might finally pack it in.
Right now the boy is an asset to the conservative side.

He’s a “black hole” for liberal campaign cash from Hollyweird and Wall $treet.

“Buy Back”….. as if they were the governments to begin with. Leftists always use the “buy back” term. Telling…

Whose money will he use? Will he use Texas tax money to buy Texas weapons?
