RFK Jr: ‘Second Amendment Is Settled,’ Not Taking Anyone’s Guns
Breitbart ^ | 06/05/2023 | Awr Hawkins

Posted on 06/05/2023 4:37:37 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

During a Monday conversation with Elon Musk, Democrat presidential hopeful Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said the Second Amendment is settled and that a Kennedy administration will not be trying to take away guns.

Dr. Benjamin Braddock quoted RFK Jr. saying, “My position on gun control is that I’m not going to take away anybody’s guns. I’m a constitutional maximalist and the issue has been settled by the Supreme Court.”

He does very much believe that Sirhan did not fire the fatal shot that killed his father. Can’t say more than that without fact-checking. Have no opinion about this myself, but it’s noteworthy.

You have to remember politics in ‘68 revolved in the main around Vietnam. So Bobby was to the left of Nixon. As for other problems RFK was much more focussed on civil rights than Nixon, though Nixon was no Wallace by a longshot.

He's one leftist I could actually vote for.
I hope its Trump vs. RFK, Jr.
Both seem to be anathema to the UniParty/Big State (either that, or they have both successfully conned me into believing so). Vivek also comes across well.

Liberals response to gun violence: don’t execute murderers, release more violent criminals baxk into society, increase no cash-bail releases, disarm law-abiding citizens

Sane response to gun violence: execute murderers, lock up violent offenders without parole, keep cash-bail system in place, allow citizens to use guns to defend themselves from violent criminals

Pretty stark contrast, in 2023

Oh forgot one other aspect

Libs: pay criminals to not commit crimes

Sane: do not pay criminals to not commit crimes, instead arrest and jail criminals who keep committing crimes

“1968 We ONLY want to register all guns, and ban the import of foreign Saturday Night Specials, and 5-shot bolt action army surplus rifles! (they got the ban).”

For sure. The sonsofbitches cost me a mint Browning Hi Power and Walther PPK that I couldn’t legally bring back from Germany in 1969.

Vivek lost me, too, when he came out in favor of trannies in the military.

Me too. And tbh, would probably be good for the country. Trump or Biden will continue to tear this country apart.

***The sonsofbitches cost me a mint Browning Hi Power***

I bought one at the Base Exchange on Okinawa back in mid 1968! Legally brought it home before the 1968 Gun law was signed.

I didn’t come back until Aug. 1969 so was screwed. Loathe LBJ for the law (before even figuring in Viet Nam) to this day.

If you’re used to parsing everything a politician has to say - and who isn’t by now? - you realize that if the Supreme Court were, say, packed until it says confiscation is fine, then Kennedy would be fine with it too. Then you have politicians who simply “change their minds” such as Beto O’Rourke, who morphed from “no interest in taking people’s guns” to “Hell yes we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47” in the blink of an eye. Then you have politicians who swear allegiance to the Second Amendment and let themselves get bulldozed into banning bump stocks, later thrown out by the Supreme Court and yes, I’m talking about Trump. I don’t trust a single one of them.
