Dem Congressman Warns America: We Will Stop at Nothing Until We Confiscate Your Guns

Congressman Mondaire Jones (D-NY) warned law-abiding gun owners that Democrats will do everything in their power to ensure AR-15s and similar types of firearms are confiscated during a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Thursday.

The hearing was to consider H.R. 7910, the "Protecting Our Kids Act," which would raise the legal age to purchase "certain semiautomatic centerfire rifles or semiautomatic centerfire shotguns" from 18 to 21 with "exceptions." The bill will also "modernize the prohibition on untraceable firearms [and] encourage the safe storage of firearms."

Jones said Congress will pass gun control legislation and nothing, not the fillibuster in the Senate or the Supreme Court, will stop them.

"Enough is enough. Enough of you telling us that school shootings are effective life when every other country like ours has virtually ended. Enough of you blaming mental illness then defunding mental health care in this country. Enough of your thoughts and prayers. Enough. Enough. You will not stop us from advancing the 'Protecting Our Kids' Act today," Jones said. "You will not stop us from passing it in the House next week and you will not stop us. If the filibuster obstructs us, we will abolish it. If the Supreme Court objects, we will expand it. We will not rest until we have taken weapons of war out of circulation in our communities."

Pick your battles wisely, Mondaire.
These are Americans you’re spouting off to, and they might not like what you’re selling.

Ballot Box is no longer useful. Soap Box, will never have enough scrubbing bubbles. Cartridge Box(es) in stock and ready...

“I think the Congressional Black Caucus has 8 gun control bills ready ,LOL .Protect the Kids but we would rather you aborted them first”

And they probably consulted that creature who runs Chicago for advice on imposing the same strict gun laws, since it’s working so well in the Windy City.

That’s always been their goal. The leftists want to take away not only your guns, but also your free speech, limit your ability to travel unrestricted, ration your healthcare and indoctrinate your kids. The US will under their rule be a single party police state where you have no liberties. Look at Venezuela, Cuba or East Germany for what is in store for us. However as the dictator s always do the public must first be disarmed.

Notice how the Democrats NEVER even consider their oath to uphold the Constitution.

If the Constitution needs to change we have a process for doing so.

It doesn’t need to change. But the lawlessness does.

This guy is literally boasting about how they intend to violate the Constitution and their oath of office.

These people look so vastly STUPID in those dang underwear masks. I would not wear one even if there was a pandemic with a 50% kill rate.

Ya know, these Democrats need to have a course on the Constitution before they’re elected.

Given how many gun owners won't send $5 to pro-gun candidates, and don't even bother to vote (or actually vote Democrat), there's a fair to middlin' chance he's right...
