Uh, probably not gonna happen.

Hey Beto - it is NOT a bill of needs, it is a bill of rights

“We are going to buy back every single one of those weapons,”

You didn’t sell them and the owners find you to be an unacceptable risk to sell them to.......

From the Texas Declaration of Independence...

“It has demanded us to deliver up our arms, which are essential to our defence, the rightful property of freemen, and formidable only to tyrannical governments. “

So why does BETO want to become a Tyrant.

[IC Ken]

Beto You are the exact reason we NEED AR15’s.

Mexican Bob needs to shut up and go back to skate boarding.

[Lurkinanloomin]

The flag was Texans answer to Mexican demands that they disarm The fake Mexican gets the same answer, LOL

[Ohioan]

But we need to sharpen our arguments, on the merits, The Founding Fathers would have had no problem, tearing the arguments of intellectual jokes like Beto O'Rourke, apart. Use the Left's campaign against them at every opportunity!

Clowns like O'Rourke can be used as foils, to our advantage!

Right & Duty To Keep & Bear Arms

“There’s really no legitimate need for an AK-47 or an AR-15.”

Hey Beto, you Butthead there’s no “legitimate” need for a BMW 750, A McLaren Spider 720, a 200 ft Yacht, Gulf Stream 650 or a 40 room mansion on the beach either.

[NorthMountain]

Attention President Trump:

Your supporters oppose "gun control". Your supporters oppose "red flag" laws, oppose "universal background checks", and oppose banning of any sort of firearm or firearm accessory.

Your supporters favor a strict interpretation of the Second Amendment: the government is forbidden to interfere with our right to keep and bear arms.

You will gain NOTHING by betraying your supporters.

“A handful of Texas supporters of President Donald Trump and the Second Amendment welcomed Beto O’Rourke at a rally in Texas with ‘Come and Take it’ flags.”

Brave patriots. Were they assaulted?

Maybe so (though I’d say that a legitimate need would be if my home was attacked by multiple assailants, or if we were invaded by Russians, Chinese or aliens (UFO type), or if our own government because a murderous tyranny). But even if Irish Bob is correct, the 2nd Amendment is not part of anything entitled, “The Bill of Needs.” In fact, I never heard of any “Bill of Needs” (even though my wife and kids regularly hand me lists of things that they “need,” and the result is a big bill).

So, Irish Bob, you can go and stick your ideas of what I may or may not own on a large, sharp stick, and then shove it as far up that place on your body where the sun don’t shine as it’ll go. Yes, seriously.

You see, I’ve had numerous relatives murdered by regimes that thought that they could tell everyone else how (or even IF) to live, and those relatives had no ability to say, “NO!” because they were unarmed. So, I am in no mood to kid around about this subject, nor to give up my right and ability to defend myself and my family. While I may still lose in the end if you send a bunch of armor-clad goons after me, I do promise you that it will NOT be free, like if was free for the Russian Communists and the Nazis. Nope, it won’t be even close to free.

To win the Presidency, one needs only sway about 3% of voters.
95% of voters are going to vote a particular way regardless of who’s running.
Beto just alienated >1% of Democrats who, quietly, are pro-gun and aren’t going to support giving up their own “assault weapons”. That’s a big loss to ensure in the main race even before getting the Democrat nomination.

(Statistics used are scientific wild-a$$ guesses. Show me wrong.)

[Boogieman]

“There’s really no legitimate need for an AK-47 or an AR-15.”

Politicians like Beto are the perfect example of a "legitimate need".

[SuperLuminal]

"There’s really no legitimate need for an AK-47 or an AR-15"

There’s really no legitimate need for the demoncrat party or its members and supporters... Confiscate them all...

Create a "yellow flag" law that applies strictly to the threats of marxism and perversion...

[Ex gun maker.]

Some years ago I found myself facing six Gang Bangers who were telling me in detail how they intended to kill me and mutilate my corpse before completing the robbery of my house and workshop.
Until I was able to retrieve a rifle that was just inside my door.
They went from “$#!* down your neck esay” to “Onlay, Onlay, he got a GUN!” as they sprinted back to their car and burned rubber leaving.
That rifle was only a .22 bolt action.
I bought my first AR-15 and a rapid-fire trigger the next weekend.
I knew there was strong chance they would return and I had better be better armed.

So yea, been there, done that, I KNOW that in fact there ARE “Legitimate” needs to own an AR-15.
Not that a reason or need is required, it’s the Bill of RIGHTS, not needs.

[IronJack]

Who’s “we,” Beatoff? You and your imaginary friend?

[bgill]

Run him out of Texas.

[TigersEye]

he said and added, “There’s really no legitimate need for an AK-47 or an AR-15.”

According to the 2nd Amendment the government has no legitimate authority to decide that. :)
