I only got a few guns, but I got lotsa bullets. Come get ‘em.

[ctdonath2]

That’s what I mean. Only FFLs can “not comply”, and they won’t be FFLs for long if they don’t comply - which is fine by the Feds.

The Left has figured out that rights are easily abridged if a third party can be hobbled to achieve that end. (As in: in DC it is legal to own a gun, but no way to get one.)

Be Ever Vigilant!!

Americans deserve all the government they voted for.

[NFHale]

“...Any American citizen that surrenders any weapon to a government official deserves to live their life wrapped in chains...”

And I’ll add this, paraphrasing ol Sammy Adams:

Crouch down and lick the hands that feed you - or the boots that stomp out your freedom, and I hope your chains DON’T rest lightly on you. And rest assured that those of us who didn’t surrender will GUARANTEE that posterity forgets that you were ever our countrymen..

Some may be cowards, but many, many others...not so much.

Common Law Rights

So his middle name bears a stronger resemblance to CUSTER than Hussein? LOL

And now he’ll have to send a copy of those 4473s if more than 1 purchase is made in 5 days.

So I'm good if I make five purchases in ONE day?

[ctdonath2]

Uh, that would be more than 1 purchase in 5 days.

[ExSoldier]

Be Ever Vigilant!!

BEV?

I like Springfield Armory's motto better: BEG!

Bring
Enough
Gun!

Any mission. Any foe. At any range.

HoooooooAH!

>>Some may be cowards, but many, many others...not so much.<<

Too many Americans IMO are casually accepting the ongoing deprivation of rights under color of law that is continually spewn by our presidential administrations and political parties. I do not accept their premise that this loss of personal liberty as being necessary for our protection. Once removed we will never regain them without a serious battle and lots of bloodshed. How do we get these people up off their knees?

[ExSoldier]

Uh, that would be more than 1 purchase in 5 days.

Oh. You're right. I'm DAIN BRAMAGED. Only six more days to teach the Spawn of SATAN before summer vacation! You can tell the effect they have on me. Right now I'm in my SMN class which stands for Shoot Me Now.

I took his story (the old Cherokee) to be more of a warning than a middle finger. Since the Cherokee Nation always was there for our forefathers (numerous times) in spite of our nation's forefathers not being there for them, when needed, I took the story to be a warning. Personally I prefer the finger next to the thumb, should I be forced to defend myself, or my family. Though I do recall one of the best crack shots I ever saw used his middle finger. That person was my Dad.

If any offense was taken from my prior post, that was not my intent.

Please see my post #32 above and understand my damaged state of mind at this point in time. No offense taken or given.

Some are hooked on acronyms, some are not.

[BerserkPatriot]

What’s to stop them from applying this to every state and every type of firearm?

What’s to stop them from using this data to compile a gun registration database?

What’s to stop them from applying this to every state and every type of firearm?

What’s to stop them from wanting to ‘verify’ this data with each and every gun owner?

[With the registration “Cat” out of the bag]
What’s to stop them from wanting to charge a tax for each hand every gun you own?

What’s to stop them from requiring to get a license and pay a fee for the privilege of owning your guns?

Finally, What’s to stop them from confiscating your now “Registered” guns?

[BerserkPatriot]

Someone mentioned this on another forum: Given that Obama and his merry band of national socialists are pretty radical in ‘normal’ times, it kind of makes you wonder how they would use a serious crisis to be even more radical.

[ExSoldier]

Some are hooked on acronyms, some are not.

I think that's largely symptomatic of folks with military backgrounds: SNAFU, BOHICA, FUBAR, which has more recently been superseded by the computer generation... which has far more of those acronyms to be hooked on.

[blackie]

I’m acquainted with acronyms, I was in the Navy in the late 40’s. :)

The Obama administration is working on all fronts to drag our country to the ash heap of history. If he really had a crisis to work with, “God Help the USA”.
