Democrat Stacey Abrams Admits She May Require Georgians to ‘Turn Their Guns In’
breitbart.com ^ | 4 Nov 2018

During a November 4 appearance on CNN’s State of the Union Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams (D) admitted that a possible outcome of her gun control plans could be that “people would turn their guns in.”

Tapper reminded the viewing audience that Abrams co-sponsored Georgia HB 731 on January 2016. He pointed out that Abrams’ co-sponsors admitted the bill would “require gun owners of these particular models to turn their guns in.”

Abrams did not try to hide her support for HB 731, rather, she said that was simply the beginning of “a conversation.” She then made clear that as her control push continues it is still unknown if the outcome will be “grandfathering in, about whether or not people would turn their guns in, whether there would be buybacks.”

I worked around a few people like that. Absolutely clueless.

And they like to believe they’re actually “smarter” than you and I.

Well, she said it so......or something.......Now all she needs is the Kenyan Usurper’s “Okie-Doke”.

Seems some percentage of the population remains as stupid as ever. We call them die-hard liberal Democrats.

I don't think she is particularly bright.

When she loses it will be because all those racist, mysogonistic Crackers haven't died yet.

Too bad 2 People with a Tazer in each hand didn’t slip up behind them and ZAP them in the back and collect the Firearms and hand cuff them in a circle around a telephone pole.

Let them go to the Police Station to reclaim the Firearms AFTER an intensive Background Check and IF they pass the check.

So many have already voted, wonder if last minute deciders will change the outcome?

Abrams will undoubtedly sink her campaign with this rhetoric. But for the crazy liberal left it still serves a purpose: it gets the discussion out there so the next time a "progressive" says it, it doesn't seem quite so radical? Don't let them get away with this "conversation" without making direct challenges to them based on our constitutional right to bear arms.

Tell everyone you know, friend or political foe alike that this kind of language is dangerous and a direct challenge to a closely held right; one many Americans will fight and die for if it is needed.

Georgia's 30% black will very likely be for her 90% or more.

30*90%=27. So, she's got a 27-3 lead right off the bat and we're entering the 4th quarter with the election tomorrow. Where's Tom Brady when you need him?

You mean the guns other than the ones her Panther goons carry? THOSE guns? She’s a fraud and a liar like the rest of the dems.

Very true. One of my takes on it is:

like they did in NY, are they going to carve out exemptions for members of law enforcement? If so, then all cops are on duty 24/7 and any actions they take, whether arguing over a parking spot or being drunk in a bar can be laid at the feet of their department, city, county, state agency.

What happens if there’s a Constitutional sheriff or two in the stated that refuses to comply with any orders?

What happens when one of these GBI agents, trying to get help from locals, realizes that they have to seize their dad’s, brother’s, sisters, cousins, best friends, neighbors weapons? How are they going to swing that.

She is such an utterly corrupt moron, that it would be laughable if it weren’t so serious. What I do find interesting though is, is she the best they have? If so, the Left is in some serious trouble. For they may have some rabid support from some, they are getting more and more radical, which is going to turn off, more and more people.

I live in a quite nice housing addition in the Atlanta metro area. There are 80 homes on our .8 mile circle. There are 2 shathole properties on our circle. One of these two has a crabgrass crop now going on 6” high. The other has many parked vehicles and comings/goings at all hours. There are only two political signs total on our circle. The two shatholes have Abrams signs.

Massive noncompliance and it goes to SCOTUS.

I know. And I’ll be one of the non-compliant, I can assure you. I was a cop, in Georgia. I used to train the cops, in using their “Patrol Rifles”(when I own it, it’s an Assault Rifle...weird). According to her, if she wins, then I’m automatically disqualified from owning one.

In Georgia, compliance is going to be real, real tricky.

But, it should never come to that. And I, as we all do, know that she’s just running her mouth and the legislature would never let her do it.

For Christ’s sake, I don’t know what everybody’s worried about. I’m not from Georgia, but I do know that Georgia has a GOP-controlled legislature. In other words, none of this malarkey Abrams is spouting will come to pass. If Democrats took the Georgia legislature, THEN we’d have something to be concerned about.
