Trump is just buying time. Our guns are safe.

It’s the best move when there are teams of operatives dropping a patsy in place and then shooting up a Walmart or whatever.

Just to force gun control on us.

Trump gets it.

You don’t.

Heard that same bullshit with bump stocks. He's just stocking up on "time".

I will never vote for anybody who advocates the creation of a registry of guns.

This is a deal-breaker. It fundamentally transforms the relationship between a citizen and the state. It is the in-crossable line.

I support PresidentTrump and intend to vote for him. But I will not vote for him if he proposes a firearm registry. I will vote for somebody who does not, if available, or I will not vote at all.

I have not missed a presidential election since Carter. But I might miss this one.

Facebook, twitter, etcc……...ban conservatives, but let nutball leftists like this punk espouse their hate with no consequence.

No more gun laws...

Here’s what they could do.

1. FBI cross checks prescription drug monitoring database.
2. Add anti-depressants and all psych drugs to controlled substances on database.
3. Require providers to submit information on high risk individuals to drug monitoring database.
4. Improve integration of state databases to make it national (probably already is for FBI and DEA).

Anyone that is high risk could be denied a firearm outright or required to submit to evaluation at their expense and share information with federal authorities to be placed on a watch list.

This is first degree tyranny. This means that Trump did a deal with DOJ to get himself off the hook but he agreed to expanding the police state agencies controlled by the deep state.

The bump stock ban was foolish and unconstitutional but it did nothing to impede the right to bear arms. The biggest issue keeping people from buying guns is that they are sure that there will be no gun bans under President Trump.

Nobody misses Obama more than gun dealers.

What was in the Gilroy, Dayton and El Paso shooters’ backgrounds that would’ve prevented them from getting the guns they used?

Why are you posing a logical question? Laws should be based on fear and feelings. /s

I see that CloudFlare decided to stop providing DDOS protection to 8Chan on the basis of their claim that 8Chan was spreading “hate”.

A better solution to ending all of this mess would be to shut down certain key social media platforms - Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, WeChat, Messenger, and Tumblr (just because it spreads the filth of pro-LGBTQ hook-up culture). Getting rid of those combined would eliminate the spread of hate far faster than any gun legislation.

It's a window into Trump's mind on this issue. He is not a 2A supporter. Given the chance he will go for gun control.

Heh. Not to mention billions and billions of dollars for unrelated spending which routes money back into demonicRAT campaign coffers.

“”What was in the Gilroy, Dayton and El Paso shooters’ backgrounds that would’ve prevented them from getting the guns they used?””

Mental conditions, known treatment and possible use of phototropic drugs. There’s a high probability all were involved. I’m a member of a couple of large Veterans forums where I help council those with alcohol problems, me being a recovered alcoholic. We’re watching young Vets walking into our VA’s all across the US and coming out zombies from the med’s they’re receiving. We’re losing 22 Vets a day due to depression, PTSD and addiction. The drugs they’re giving these kids today scare the hell out of me, they’re mind warping and dangerous creating a higher degree of difficulty for a successful rehab and long term recovery. My wife’s department treats and houses Vet’s with addiction problems. I’ve went up and talked to them 3 times this year and it breaks your heart to see it.

Well Biden is looking for the memorial event in Michigan and Houston to honor the victims of the mass shootings.

What is needed is for law-abiding people to start CARRYING EVERYWHERE. “No guns” signs have force of law? DON’T GO THERE.

I AM SICK of being let down by fellow “gun people.”

USE IT OR LOSE IT.

Trump uses pacing tactics and many here overreact.

Claims??

“He provided no details on what sort of legislation he would support.”

He hasn’t given his proposals yet because he hasn’t spoken yet.

Talk about nasty, snotty people.

Because psychiatrists, psychologists, and therapists are overwhelmingly libtard.

How would the seller of a gun find out if a person is on phototrpic drugs or ha PTSD?
