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."

The only thing dumber that a Demokrat is already brain dead.
Being a government official, Mondaire is confident he has people for that.
Of course, by his statement and the smile on his face, it is clear he doesn't understand the reason for the 2nd A in the first place.
For commies, their end game is that NO ONE IS PROTECTED from the criminals and Govt who want us all dead..when they say “weapons of war” they mean ALL guns..meanwhile they are sending craploads of firearms to Ukraine..what they want is what Hitler wanted and got, no Jews armed, easier to kill
Instead of unconstitutional laws, why don’t they go to the source and proposed rescinding and replacing the 2nd amendment. That really is their only legit course of action. Get the change organized and convince a required number of states to approve.
CWII around next bend.
Anybody read the 7910. They aren’t saying taking them out just raise age of purchase. Nothing of limiting ammo per mag. Encourage safe storage. Centerfire shotguns. Ahhh semiautomatic shotguns. They want law abiding citizens to have to pause to reload while bad guys don’t have to. Do they think bad people are going to abide by there laws.. This for nothing to protect kids.
Which is why we will stop at nothing to block you from creating a registration list of guns.
That’s par for the course for most liberal twats in NYC - 15-20% on any given day in Manhattan wear their face nappies OUTSIDE even when alone in a park.
“Outlaw guns and only outlaws will have guns.”
Old NRA bumper ticker. Says more about what such stupid laws would “accomplish” than just any other few words that can be strung together.
He is a 35 year old New York Stanford Harvard Communist Lawyer. I looked up Corruption in the dictionary and see his picture there. He is the reason we have a second Amendment. Which is not a Right given, but a recognition of a God-given right. Lunatics like him are the reason to bear arms, because the government cannot be trusted. Why would he stop at taking your guns, overthrowing the Senate - destroying the Supreme Court? This Marxist Jackass does not care what this Republic’s Constitution and Rule of Law says. He’s a grifting mobster.
Hey, Mondaire. YOU work for US.
Got it, you power-hungry, despotic punk?
Actually this is the hill on which to make them die on. Remember Patton, “No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.”
I despise these people.
With a little luck that speech will be used against every Democrat in the US.
Jones is one of the reasons the Founders put the Second Amendment into The Constitution.
They foresaw the potential threat — from within.

‘Mondaire?’
What’s your 20, Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones?
Americans tend not to like dictators. You, sir, are behaving as a dictator. Watch yourself, pal. The tough talk will be your undoing.
If I said what I really think of how we should deal with the Left I’d be banned even here.
