Gabby Giffords: Universal Background Checks Not Enough, Legalize Confiscation
breitbart.com ^ | 5/10/2016 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 05/11/2016 10:42:10 AM PDT by rktman

On May 9 — less than two years since universal background checks were hoisted onto the backs of law-abiding citizens in Washington state — Gabby Giffords was in the state campaigning for special protective orders that will allow firearm confiscation.

The orders — “Extreme Risk Protection Orders” — would be similar to California’s Gun Violence Restraining Orders, inasmuch as they would allow “family or household members” to petition a judge to order the temporary confiscation of firearms from another family member or person living in the household.

any and all politicians who attempt to legislate against the constitution should be arrested for sedition, to include the POTUS

Dear Gabby...I think we fought a war over that....

Please review the ride of Paul Revere.

Review the Battle of Wyoming, too.

The last revolution started when the ruling class sent their minions to confiscate firearms. How did that work out?

If someone is too dangerous to have a gun, why would they be allowed out in public. Guy yesterday used a knife. They should confiscate the people.

Could we start by raiding Gabby’s home and seizing all of the guns she and Mark own? Maybe extending the seizure to their secret storage sites as well?

And will that take guns from hardened violent criminals?

Gabby.

You need more gun control like you need a hole in the head.

Uh, yeah. I thought “diminished mental capacity” was one of the things they touted to deny firearms ownership. Does she do her own check book/financials? Seems like the VA and SS want to use that as a “weapon” to deny 2nd amendment rights.

“gabby”...obviously brain-addled. Someone “seize” her. Hasn’t this fool ever read the Bill of Rights?

The key witness to this, can’t even remember which store she ran for cover to. Said she hid in Walgreen’s meat department, then changed to Safeway. Hard to confuse either store. The man that rode with her to the hospital that supposedly applied pressure to the wound, did not have an ounce of blood on him.

I will go further, when she goes on her gun grabbing tours, she makes the same “joke.” She would be asked what she does for hobbies and stuff, and she always says “yogurt”, then her hypocrite AK-47 owning husband corrects her and says “yoga.” Then they chuckle together. She has did this at least 7 times that I know of.

Anyway, I don’t want to be considered a complete conspiracy theorist, or completely crazy. In recent years, I believe almost nothing that I am told regarding shootings.
