It’s a trend that hasn’t ceased to stop...

All that repeated stopping makes this a hard trend to understand. Sigh.... Must be a urinalism skewl grad.

After he controls the supremes, Dont forget he said his Brownshirts will be bigger than ALL of Armed Forces and BETTER FUNDED so his mailed fist will me in evidence. He can’t control drugs but there is a lot of money involved.
Only way the gunnies can win is How?

England tried that with us in 1775. Didn’t work then, either. We changed governments. We can do it again.

[MrB]

That’s one more box of liberty they’ve removed.

They need to realize we’ll use whatever box of liberty we have left.

Soap Box
Ballot Box
Moving Box
Jury Box
Cartridge Box

I really don’t get the idea where the government believes they can limit or ban a certain firearm for any number of arbitrary reasons, aside from “precedent,” of which the Jim Crow Laws were obviously racist in manner.

Verbal mayhem ping! I just can't visualize "hasn't ceased to stop" at all, and it's too early to apply adult beverages to the situation.

It’s a trend that hasn’t ceased to stop...

Wow. Let's take this one apart, shall we, lol?

If the trend hasn't ceased, then it hasn't stopped. If it hasn't stopped, it's ongoing. So we have a trend in an ongoing stop.

So, it's stopped. Still. But, it might not always be. It's an ongoing thing.

Why isn't writing ability a pre-qualification to be a journalist?

*sigh*

[RegulatorCountry]

Stop this incessant stopping, just stop it, I say!

[Tax-chick]

I think you need a Guinness already.

A li'l something from the Department of Self-Defeating Quasi-Redundancy Department.

BTW, Could somebody give me a few really good examples of a tautology? I've always wanted to use that word correctly, and I've never been fully confident that I got it right.

They say they have Remington 9MM.

[Tax-chick]

That’s a tough one. I know them when I see them, but I can’t think of an example right now.

[William Tell]

From the article: "... [the Heller decision] reaffirmed the Second Amendment gives individuals the right to own firearms. "

Untrue.

The Heller decision reaffirmed that the Second Amendment protects the pre-existing right of individuals to keep and bear arms. It's important to realize the repealing the Second Amendment would change our government but it would not change our rights.

Different subject, something to brighten thine eye:

Virgo Dei genitrix,
quem totus non capit orbis,
In tua clausit viscera
factus homo.

[Tax-chick]

Very nice!

[stevio]

I missed that. Well it’s not like you need an edumacation or something to be a journalist. LOL.

Morris, who’s owned Military Pro for five years, spent 20 years in law enforcement and said he’s been an active shooter for longer than that, shared his perspective on current legislation, noting that much of it, he doesn’t believe, is responsible. “It’s kind of like wanting to ban a car with four wheels,” he said, noting that most vehicles do have four wheels, but that doesn’t mean all cars are dangerous. “There’s some responsibility needed when a bill is introduced so that any attempt on a firearm ban would ban something that is truly destructive rather than something blanket,” he said.

Remind me not to place any orders for ..well..anything with Military Pro.

"Shall not be infringed" seems pretty clear to me, but obviously not ex "law enforcement" officer Morris. Guns and other arms are *supposed* to be dangerous.

"Moving Box?" I ain't going anywhere.

"Μολών Λaβέ"

[MrB]

“Moving box” refers to the ability to move to another state within the USA if the policies & laws of that state are not agreeable and you can’t affect satisfactory change.

This is one of the primary reasons the left implements all of their policies at the federal level - instinctively, they want to control you, so allowing you to move to another state to avoid that control is abhorrent to them.
