If passed by the House, and even by the RINO gun-grabbing Senators, it still has to go through Trump. If he signs, know this:

WE WILL NOT COMPLY

The Demonrats are setting the stage for a civil war in which MILLIONS will die. How much death do they want? Because their own will surely die also.

Case in point: Freshman Rep. Lucy McBath (D-Ga.) represents a suburban Atlanta district that President Trump won narrowly in 2016. Yet she won what had long been a GOP-held seat while actively campaigning for gun safety measures.

Won by a point, and Handel won barely over some 30-year-old nobody.

I mean, seriously, do they think no one can look this up? If 2022 is a 'red wave' year, what are the odds McBath sticks around? Probably about zero.

A useless law without gun registration.

This is precisely gun registration. Every sale must be recorded and captured by the government. It serves no purpose beyond registration as prelude to confiscation.

No, it’s more than building a database from future transfers. You cannot enforce such a law without everyone having to register what they already have.
Otherwise, if you want to sell a gun to a friend, nobody could prove he hasn’t had it for years if it existed somewhere before the law was passed.

In 2017, there were 70,237 drug overdose deaths in the U.S. Problems caused by the social libertines of the socialist left present threats that must be stopped, while our Second Amendment, on balance, saves many innocent lives.

Almost daily, and casually, they openly state that I as a white man need to “go away”, “be eliminated”, that my culture needs to be erased, and that I must be silenced. The very definition of genocidal activity.

What shocks me is the speed in which they have become so brutally honest about their intent. Now they are proud of their incivility and hatred.

And liberal whites are promoting this. agents of destruction

Here in Alabama, I occasionally sell a gun or more often buy one (hey, I like ‘em!).

How the Hell can I do a background check, or the private citizen I buy from? Do I have to use a from? Where do I get it? How do I process it? Call some number? Do I have an obligation to keep the form forever? I’m just a guy who obeys the law, you know a citizen! I’m not a gun store.

Not only that, but normally, registration, licensing for concealed carry, etc., is a STATE, not a Fedgov scope. The Feds need to stay out.

Massachusetts /= Alabama; California /= North Dakota.

I hate baby killing pedophile socialist gun grabbers ...
Pervy Weinstein said he's making it his mission to destroy the NRA. I WONDER WHY? Fmr Cong Leeland Yee, friend of Shannon Watts aka Gun Control Barbie now doing time for GUN RUNNING. Kenneth Glasgow a gun control activist, now in the Dothan, AL lockup facing capital murder charges. Just hours after speaking at a march for our lives rally in Birmingham he hooked up with some other thugs, one of whom shot a woman they were robbing. The most vociferous hoplophobic militant gun control advocates tend to have serious ethical and legal issues of their own. The history of gun control is a study in hypocrisy of the worst kind.

The democrat media NEVER states that the democrat proposals would have done nothing to stop any mass killing.

Strange that the democrat media does not want to print the truth.

If we could keep guns out of the hands of democrats, there would be almost no gun violence in this country.

Vomitus........ go ahead, throw it all up. get it out.

What is happening is the Democrats are plainly illustrating they lack the ability to make any change.

They want the public disarmed.

Same as the Venezuelan communists ...

Funny how it works that way.

2A is about tyrant hunting, not duck hunting.

““We have been partaking in a grisly ritual. We have a mass shooting, we have a moment of silence, and then there has been inaction. This signifies the end of that,”

The second part of the grisly ritual is to pass some ineffectual but restrictive gun law and wait until the next mass shooting to pass another.

That’s the point. They want to make Trump veto something, and use it to show what a meany and a racist and a poopyhead he is.

Their point is wasted on the far left. Hi veto is much needed for the security , sovereignty and safety of America, They are on the wrong side of history and they know it. BUILD THE WALL!!
