They came up with that about 40-50ish years ago. Gave it a timeframe too. Guess whats coming up soon?

If you guessed the end of that timeframe, you chose wisely.

Bosnia stands in opposition to idiots saying “it can’t happen here’ Because they thought the same thing there.

I agree with you completely.

They simply have NO CLUE what a big can of whoopass they are going to open...and they're happy and enthusiastic about it. Truly, they are stupid beyond belief. They emote, they don't think or reason.

My guess, is this is exactly what the American Defense Force, or whatever the hell Barky announced some time ago, that would effectively be a federal police force, which (as Barky insisted) would be as well armed and well equipped as the military. Any guess what he wanted all those billions of rounds of non-military ammunition for, purportedly purchased for agencies like NOAA.

Heres one people never think about. And I’m serious.

Look how many millenials play Battlefeild/call of duty/halo. How many of them do you think will side with gun confiscation? Even if they are supposedly liberals?

They might have never been taught real history. But they understand the value of being armed.

How about low-cost campaigns in Chicago, St Louis, and Baltimore, called “Handguns for Heroin,” emptying out all the evidence lockers in those cities and pacifying the population at the same time.

“Greatly decreased the supply of used cars.”

And good luck going to the junk yard to find parts for your 1980 pickup.

She really wants a civil war.

I always knew such a thing — a civil war — was possible, but I did not think one would happen in my lifetime.

I’ll be 65 on my next birthday, and I do believe the impossible is not only possible, but likely.

God damn the lefties! They are hell bent on destroying my beloved America. They will not succeed, but there will be a lot of blood, sweat, toil, and tears expended before we save America.

The trick is, anyone who has the remotest respect for Constitution and the Second Amendment is not going to vote Democrat anyway. So she is pandering to the LIV population, segments of the population who want their victims disarmed, and the Gated Community types.

I did a frame-off ground up build of a 79 F250 when that went on because the parts were disappearing fast. The 73-79s used to be everywhere.

Today they are like diamonds. I only regret not swapping in an old Detroit.

This cash for “clunkers” program should have waken Americans to the extraordinary evil of these people. It is extreme lunacy to think that destroying value would make us better off. Evil. Destruction cannot make us richer.

Remember - We are a country in which 70,000,000 people walked into a private voting booth to try electing a man that profits from incinerating aborted children, is a gun grabber, fathered Homo Marraige in America and about a thousand other acts of evil...

Yeah, but 65 million didn't. And most of them have guns.

She can push it all she wants, but Algore and the Dems learned how emensly unpopular the idea of gun control was in a presidential election in 2000.

They only started to get brave about it again now.

There were 65 million conservatives/on the right types that didn’t vote for Romeny?

Sorry Hillary, I don’t VOTE for clunkers either, and I don’t CARE that your engine is fueled by ethanol either! ;)

It’s not sarcasm. Romney was and is guilty of all that. All documented. And so is Barry. The vast majority of America voted for two men of extreme evil.

And we got evil for it from the DNC and the GOP. So I have an extremely hard time buying that there will be a massive uprising to keep our guns. The vast majority couldn’t say no to evil in the anonymous privacy of a voting booth so I don’t know why, when a lib in body armor shows up at their door, they will suddenly do anything but fully comply with everything they are told to do.

Yes, some of us will fight back. Will it be enough? WE obviously cannot count on the patriotism of people so willing to sell their vote for dead babies. Would you trust such a person with the life of your family in the face of armed threat?

The founders talked about people who deserved neither freedom nor liberty. People don’t like that. That’s not my fault they made the choices they did.

It’s not even that Hillary thinks those people in the masks are not here, it’s that those people in the masks can be anyone who desires control over others, including her and her party.

Once a population is defenseless, they can be controlled and ruled by anyone with weapons.

That includes ISIS, leftists, communists, fascists, glowbull warming fanatics, common thugs, gang members, cartel assassins and lesser known threats such as angry boyfriends, fiending junkies, rabid dogs like Cujo, aliens, land worms, face crabs and on and on.

Anything.

The men in masks are anyone and anything, and the people on the ground looking pitiful and helpless are those without the power and means to defend themselves.

And the worst possible example of the people on the ground looking helpless and pitiful would be a people who were formerly capable of defending themselves, but gave up their arms in order to be safe in the loving protection of their protectors.

But who is going to protect them from their protectors?

No one.

Automatic, semi-automatic, and slide-action longarms were banned. Before that, they were certainly around...looking at a now-404 Australian shooters’ page I saw pictures of the collections some had before the ban/”buyback”. I saw SLRs, Garands, G43s, even a few 1941 Johnsons. Truly enough to make one cringe at what had been lost.

“But who is going to protect them from their protectors?

No one.”

Place photo of “protector” aiming a scoped rifle at someone taking a photograph while “sheltering in place” while said ‘protector” is atop armored personnel carrier.

(Place photo here)

Remember Boston? Let freedom ring! Yeah, right.
