Will Enough Ever Be Enough For the Gun Grabbers?
Townhall ^ | 9 April 2018 | Scott Morefield

Full title: Will Enough Ever Be Enough For the Gun Grabbers? Let's Ask the Libs in Britain Fighting the Knife Crime ‘Epidemic’

We also point to the inevitable slippery-slope, full well knowing that’s what may of these would-be tyrants are counting on. Sure, they’re going after the so-called “assault rifles” now, because the Parkland shooter used one and they’re really scary looking, but does anyone really believe that, should they succeed in banning those, they wouldn’t go after the next thing the next psychopath uses to commit mass mayhem? . . . snip

The answer is an easy one if you understand liberalism for the sick disease that it is - NO. They’ll never stop. Just as sure as the sky is blue, once they’ve tasted blood, liberal gun grabbers will never stop lusting for more control over our lives and especially our right to defend ourselves against evildoers. . . snip

Because far from actually saving lives, control is really what they are after.

And they’re more than willing to ride that slippery slope all the way to its inevitable conclusion, when every last modicum of real freedom is gone from the Western world.

Liberal in the sense of being excessively applied.
Otherwise, many things called liberal are hardly that.

There’s two types of conservatives right now.

The people who have figured out that they want us dead.

And the people who will be taken by surprise when they make their move.

Like every generation before us, we are facing pure evil. This time it is different in scale from most crises in history. The free world is in more danger now than at any time period since Siege of Vienna in 1683, and today's danger comes even more from internal threats than from the outside invasion.

I no longer believe there can be a peaceful end to the social wars, other than George Orwell's vision. I still don't want a hot civil war, but I cannot imagine a positive outcome without some jolt that reminds people of where government gets its just powers and of our personal responsibility for our own safety. We need to destroy the idea that government can be given a monopoly on power.

“.........the people who will be taken by surprise when they make their move.”..........

When/if they “make their move”, I would guarantee that several liberals will go to their happy hunting ground if they try total confiscation.

You mean neither Hitler nor Stalin nor Saddam was that dangerous? Please explain.

Every liberal is a violent totalitarian thug.

If wishes were fishes...

Last time the Rebels were expert horsemen and crack shots. This time the Rebel Army is armed with bongs and dildos. They can't even change a flat tire.

And if we're all dead, who's going to do the work and pay the taxes?

Here’s when enough is enough.

“If I could have gotten 51 votes in the Senate of the United States, for an outright ban picking up every one of them up...Mr. and Mrs. America turn ‘em all in I would have done it. I could not do it. The votes were not there.”

The gays made us an implied deal: “Give us ‘marriage’ and we’ll get out of your faces and leave you alone.” They also stated outright that allowing gays to ‘marry’ would never harm straight people.

Well, we gave them what they wanted - in large part to get them out of our faces. Did they get out of our faces and our lives? Do I even need to say more?

I will anyway. Try running a bakery. Try sending your kids to public school. Try letting your daughter to use the bathroom in a Target. Next up for them is ‘normalization’ of adult-child sex.

Does ANYONE here think it will EVER stop on gun control?

As I’ve stated before, they’re in it for the long-game. A friend of mine in California recently said - “Yes, I can still buy (certain) semi-automatic long guns and handguns that meet state restrictions, but I’m not loaded with cash, and it’s just not worth the risk of making a single mistake and becoming a felon here.”

I told him that is EXACTLY what the Left wants, and that is how they are bringing an end to private ownership. This guy should have guns, but will not. He’s totally one of us, politically, loves to shoot, love guns - but ‘common sense gun-safety laws’ (as Hillary calls them) means he’ll likely never be a gun owner. So how far will he go to protect gun owners without having any hardware? Sadly not as far as he would if he owned. And so, the political base defending the Second Amendment (and many, many, other causes we hold dear) gets slowly chipped away - for him, just too expensive now, and too risky.

We are strong now, very strong - but they will continue to chip away. They won’t allow armed civilians in schools because they know FULL WELL what that will mean for their efforts - virtually no more kids being shot up - and without a constant supply of dead kids, the ability to keep squeezing gun owners simply will not exist. Sadly, that’s the level they’re now playing at. It is up to us to decide whether we can play at that level, or should we just concede to them?

NOPE! Because of their Grabber mentality,

There used to nave Pocket Guns, Gentlemen Pocket Office Letter Knives, now that is NO MORE. Ladies used to wear BIG Hat Pins to keep ungentlemanly men at bay as well as little Purse Derringers Old Men used to carry swords and like many Ladies used to seem to always carry Umbrellas with pointed metal ends,

Now all that is no more.

Because of the Grabber mentality,

Massachusetts is already attempting this. Thus far, all is quiet on the Eastern Front.

Their end goal is a disarmed populace followed by enslavement to the socialist centralized state which they see themselves as controlling. Everybody sees it.

When they pry your guns from your cold dead hands they will be satisfied. Until then, no.
