HELL NO.

I will not comply. I will still sell guns to my friends, and still give my adult children guns as gifts, even if the Demonrats get Trump to sign off on this obvious infringement of the 2nd Amendment, the ban on private transfers.

To: rktman; All
"they say one of their first agendas will be to introduce a new set of gun control bills,"

Patriots are reminded that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to regulate anything but military-related arms, the Constitution’s Article I, Section 8, Clause 15 an example.

Note that most post-17th Amendment ratification federal domestic policy is based on stolen state powers and likewise stolen state revenues, particularly since the time of Constitution-ignoring FDR.

"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States."—Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.


But since the 116th Congress will be predictably divided and gridlocked, with the exception of what master dealmaker Pres. Trump can get done for the American people with Congress, Democrats must be politicking for 2020.

“It doesn’t cover everything,” Pelosi admitted. “But it will save many lives.”

Not sure if Ms Pelosi actually believes this or is just lying. The fact is that it will not save a single life. Criminals, terrorist and the mentally deranged do not get weapons where they would be required to process a background check!

Push all you want, Leftist scum - we’ll push back, and we’re armed. My family was severely affected by Russian and German Leftists who didn’t allow them, or anyone else deemed an “enemy of the state/people” to own firearms. That’s simply NOT going to happen with me and my family. They want to oppress us, have at it - just understand that it isn’t going to be for free this time.

It is utterly transparent why the Dems/Leftists want to register firearms - it is to ultimately seize them ALL. Why? Well, that is also utterly transparent - it is to ensure that when they ultimately gain power again, it is never lost.

The reason for, and object of, gun control is not guns; it is CONTROL!!!!!

Mrs rktman family were in Yugoslavia having immigrated from Germany. This did not sit well with the party so they ended up in relo camps and grandpa was forced to be a cook for the nazis. At the end of the war Tito forced them back to Germany. Yeah, she ain’t real fond of rights being yanked.

“I’m guessing a lot of people are forgetting about the black market from the days of the Soviet Union.”


Sing to the tune of “Roadrunner” - yes, the old WB cartoon:

If you’re on a highway and Ghost Gunner goes beep beep.
Just step aside or you might end up in a heap.
Ghost Gunner, Ghost Gunner guns down the road all day.
Even the Commies can’t make him change his ways.

Ghost Gunner, the Commies are after you.
Ghost Gunner, if they catch you you’re through.
Ghost Gunner, the Commies are after you.
Ghost Gunner, if they catch you you’re through.

Those Commies are really crazy clowns,
When will they learn that they never can mow him down?
Poor little Ghost Gunner never bothers anyone,
Just gunnin’ down the road’s his idea of having fun.

Gun laws are about punishing what the left considers to be deviant political beliefs; nothing else. Infringement is the entire objective. Mass shootings are just a means to that end.

“Gun laws are about punishing what the left considers to be deviant political beliefs; nothing else. Infringement is the entire objective. Mass shootings are just a means to that end.”


Gun laws are about controlling the population; nothing else. COMPLETE infringement is the entire objective. Mass shootings are just a means to that end.”

There, fixed it for you. They don’t care what you think, only what you DO or can do. Oh, the rank and file care, but they are “useful idiots” in Lenin’s words. The “Vanguard of the Proletariat” doesn’t give a rat’s ass what you think, just that you obey or, failing that, end up in a ditch with an entry wound in the back of your head.

First ban so called assault weapons - that won’t work
Then ban all semi-autos - that won’t work
And so on..
And so on.....

No, she didn’t really say that. What’s scary is that she’s such a nutjob it is entirely plausible she would say something like that.

That flag doesn’t just have pretty words on it.

We either mean it, or we don’t. You have those guns for THAT Day.

And every generation gets it’s chance to prove it believes what it says it believes.
