O'Rourke Believes Americans Will Willingly Comply with Gun Confiscation, Won't Need Police
Western Journal ^ | Sept 9, 2019 | C. Douglas Golden

Posted on 09/08/2019 2:53:21 PM PDT by upchuck

... That’s pretty much what former Democratic Rep. O’Rourke’s campaign is about at this point. He’s seen a revival of his fortunes by jumping in front of the cameras whenever there’s a mass shooting and saying that it’s time to confiscate America’s AR-15s and other so-called “assault weapons” via a mandatory “buyback.”

And does he think there’s going to be any trouble getting Mr. and Mrs. America to turn them all in? No, of course not. When he was asked about the logistics of his plan in Manchester, New Hampshire, he said that his mandatory so-called “buyback” plan wouldn’t include law enforcement coming to your house if you didn’t comply.

“No. I don’t see the law enforcement going door to door,” O’Rourke said in response to a question at the New Hampshire Democratic Party Convention on Saturday.

“I see Americans complying with the law. I see us working with gun owners, non-gun owners, local, county, state, federal law enforcement to come up with the best possible solution. I have yet to meet an owner of an AR-15 who thinks it’s OK that we have these kind of mass killings in this country.”

About waiting for decent Americans to all give up their guns quietly to the government....

Dream (song sung by Sinatra Ella Fitzgerald, Four Aces....)

Dream, when you’re feelin’ blue
Dream, that’s the thing to do
Just watch the smoke rings rise in the air
You’ll find your share of memories there
So, dream when the day is through
Dream, and they might come true

So dream, dream, dream


In real life: Fuhhhgetttabboutit.

"“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? "

Do like the demoncrats have been doing already...

Make and distribute lists of names and addresses of those (and their families) who oppose us and our views...

Certainly it would not be impossible to generate lists for those (and their families) who either plan and demand confiscation or who would be coming to confiscate...

Maybe all the emails and telephone calls would dissuade them.../Snicker

I see Americans complying with the law.

Well, I for one certainly will. The one in the Second Amendment of the Constitution.

The bumpstock ban opened the doir to ffinding and funding murderers to complete the 2A demise.

Maybe he’s baiting for a reaction. Then he will have his fascist trolls look for “extreme” responses on social media.

The government agencies or proxy trolls probably do this already. I think most know this and mos 2A supporters make good arguments frustrating the provocateurs.

That’s what most don’t understand -can’t make anybody turn in the parts that don’t require registering. If nobody can prove via paper trail what any person owns, then the confiscators are SOL.

To: upchuck; All

I figure that “Pretty Bobbi” O’Rourke, the leftist & crossdresser, must be taking/smoking something pretty strong to make such a DUMB-bunny comment.
(Sounds like a great way to start a long/bloody guerrilla war to me, as NOBODY that I know, including the individual GIs/police officers would “turn in” their semi-auto arms willingly.)

In point of fact, I suspect that the feds, if such a FOOLISH & UNCONSTITUTIONAL notion ever became law, would have difficulty finding State/local police who are willing to take on the task or even “cooperate with” federal authorities..
