There has always been and there will always be an underlying current in the Military that does not think anyone should have a gun except them and those they approve of to have a weapon.
Then by all means, mount a campaign to change the Constitution, Seth.
I get so sick of this “on our streets” crap, like they are lying around on the asphalt like land mines or something.
For this arsehole to use his service to further political ambitions is sick. I carried one daily as well, before he was born, but I do not use that fact for personal advantage.
If I was to be armed now, it would be to prevent those like him from imposing their will on me and depriving me of my rights.
And to protect the trannys.
As a former Marine, it is my opinion that moulton is a disgrace.
I have no reason to own half the things I do own, but for my firearms I have a reason.
262 Million people murdered by their own governments since 1900*
*and those are just the documented ones.
Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.- Daniel Webster
Only an officer would come up with this stuff. I’m surprised he didn’t say enlisted men shouldn’t have assault weapons.
People cant buy “assault weapons”.
If you, Mr. Marine, have an assault rifle, that alone is enough reason for others to have one, too.
"But though the scheme of disciplining the whole nation must be abandoned as mischievous or impracticable; yet it is a matter of the utmost importance that a well-digested plan should, as soon as possible, be adopted for the proper establishment of the militia. The attention of the government ought particularly to be directed to the formation of a select corps of moderate extent, upon such principles as will really fit them for service in case of need. By thus circumscribing the plan, it will be possible to have an excellent body of well-trained militia, ready to take the field whenever the defense of the State shall require it. This will not only lessen the call for military establishments, but if circumstances should at any time oblige the government to form an army of any magnitude that army can never be formidable to the liberties of the people while there is a large body of citizens, little, if at all, inferior to them in discipline and the use of arms, who stand ready to defend their own rights and those of their fellow-citizens. This appears to me the only substitute that can be devised for a standing army, and the best possible security against it, if it should exist."

DC lawmakers are claiming that civilians have no reason for owning assault weapons while illegal aliens are simultaneously bringing anything that they want to through open borders.
November and Trump cannot come fast enough.
Moulton is a VERY ambitious guy. I’ve had my eye on him for a while.
GFY, Seth.
Moulton may have been a competent USMC officer, only those NCO's under his command would know. However, it now clearly appears he is inclined to deprive his constituents of their hard-earned constitutional entitlements.
So I See Seth is a slow learner and because of his handicap he thinks everyone is as slow to learn how to use a firearm properly and safely as he is.
