What a complete idiot.
How do they find buffoons to write this dreck?
And do they come up with editors who aren’t too embarrassed to publish it?
Although I like the idea of gun safety courses offered to the public by the military, I don’t like the idea of making them mandatory. If you make a constitutional right contingent on taking a course you are falling in with the liberals, who view gun ownership is something the government can and should control.
Any questions?
Trade a bump stock ban for universal national concealed carry or nation-wide concealed carry reciprocity. I would consider that a big net win.
On the other hand, if they would be willing to stop blocking the SHARE act and concealed carry reciprocity I would be willing to accept the licensing of bump stocks as destructive devices, assuming we could reach a reasonable agreement on the legal definition of what a "bump stock" is.
Otherwise we should hold our ground until the hysteria passes
If you look at the three methods that could be used:
(1) Constitutional Convention. I don’t think anyone from either party wants this to occur because there could be twenty-odd changes (term-limits, deletion of the Electoral College, removal of functions for the Senate, etc).
(2) Getting two-thirds of the House and Senate to pass? It’d be a end of career job for some GOP folks if they went this direction.
(3) State by state legislatures voting on a similar piece of legislature seems unlikely. You wouldn’t find any southern state agreeing to this.
So it’s simply a lot of talk without much to be accomplished. Now, I will say...if they ever get around to defining a militia within each state, and get the Supreme Court to allow a defined status...then you might see some creative measures to occur then. If you just said that no incarcerated or convicted members could be a member of a militia....it’d likely be waved as legit, and take the first step.
The Second Amendment protects the First; remove the Second and the First goes away.
The issue is never the issue.
Libtards don’t give a crap about “bump stocks”. Trump ran on changing the Overton Window on the 2nd Amendment. This is about preventing that. Pure and simple.
There are two fronts to fight on, emotion and logic. We already are winning on logic. What will back the Dems off is to win in the area of emotion.
NRA should run ads around:
- women defending their kids or themselves from being attacked
- men defending their family
The resolution to ending the 2nd amendment debate in favor of the 2nd amendment is to attack the gun control acts of 1934 and 1968 to end the notion that American's 2nd amendment rights are limited. We must end the NFA and all the nonsense infringements it has forced on the American people. We should not be debating a ban on bump stock because without the NFA they would not exist. Until we wake up and realize the NFA is the source of all our problems we will continue to have this debate and will ultimately lose and be disarmed.
Shoot anyone who comes for your guns, if they say turn then then everyone show up and open fire.
“You won’t need the wnd amebdment until they try to take it away from you” this is a clue
Where has this tool been as conceal carry has been vastly expanded over the past couple of decades? And self-defense laws improved? The so-called assault weapons ban allowed to expire without renewal? It's been a Second Amendment juggernaut.
For us to win the 2nd Amendment “war”...just buy more guns and not be afraid to use them when the time comes.
Pull that Smokewagon....
2A is in zero danger of being repealed, ever. The danger is in liberal judges deciding not to enforce it.
