There comes a time in your life when you actually wish they would TRY and confiscate unregistered guns.

Try it! Come on, Try it! You ain’t got a hair on your a$$ if you don’t try it!

So is the 13th Amendment. There has not been slavery here in 150 years. So let’s repeal the 13th Amendment as ‘outmoded’.
>

13th needs to be STRENGTHENED. Every payday is economic slavery-day; every SS/MediXYZ/welfare office is a reminder of the same....Death taxes, estate taxes, capital gains, income tax, sales tax, property tax, license, permits, fees, tickets, registration...tax, by any other name.

Slavery was only abolished for ~70 yrs. It’s alive and well today, none dare care it by name though.

Not many. And ranchers and station owners have licenses other people cannot get.

You have to prove why you need any gun in Australia and you can only get certain types of guns with certain licenses. No state decided good reason, no license, no gun. And they did require people to turn in their weapons. I have read the articles where people said they had to turn them in.

Dan Pfeiffer will have a difficult time confiscating weapons while hanging from a lamppost. But do try, Miss Snowflake.

Give Pfeiffer some credit in this argument and method. It is not so far fetched to believe this would be efforted in Congress should Dems hold the Presidency and Supreme Court tilted left.

BAN DEMOCRAT GUNS

I call for a ban on Democrat gun ownership.

1) Democrats agree that guns are bad.
2) Democrats murder Republicans at an alarming rate.
3) It is Constitutional since many Americans still own to protect all people.

It is a WIN WIN all around!

the Second Amendment is outmoded.

The progressive/Democrat/Communist think all the rest of the Constitution is to. If they get rid of the second the rest will be easy. To make it worse, if it happens, the NYTimes, etc will be begging gun owners to save the 1st Amendment.

Like nineteen pages of forms to fill out is why most people just give up. Meanwhile a cop was gunned down by a sniper shortly after that law was passed and the PM earlier stated that “we’ll be safer now” - how many gun deaths have happened since? Yep, sure did work, didn’t it?

Talk to your children, nieces and nephews. And make clear to all your siblings, to create a verbal plan now. Whoever gets terminally ill, takes money contributions from the others and buys up many weapons.

Upon death, the lake story holds, all weapons were lost in the boating accident.

Now your family decendents own unregistered firearms. Bury some will only a verbal map where.

Plan now.

I actually love it, when Democrats reveal to the public what they really want to do. “[A] national gun registry, mandating ‘smart-gun technology,’ and rolling-out a buy-back program similar to Australia’s” are all losing propositions. If the Dems push that agenda between now and 2020, they will guarantee a second Trump term...

No, the Australian police said, “turn in your registered guns which used to be legal until the PM decided you shouldn’t have them, or we will be at your door, you will be under arrest and in far worse trouble than if you had just complied and handed them over voluntarily.”

Own any Remington 870 shotguns? They’re illegal in Oz, now.

G’day, mate!

If it gets to the point where you need to bury them you have reached the point where you have to use them.

(Sigh) Who does this mental midget think is going to volunteer or be told and comply with such an order to do confiscation?

Was 600,000 dead during the First Civil War not enough?

Dan Pfeiffer called for the United States to implement an Australian-style gun confiscation

If you really, really, really want another civil war, that's a good way to start.

It tells us though absolutely, this is what the Democrats want on their road to a totalitarian government.
