Scared much?
I assume we could make a case for shoulder-fired SAM missiles because the 2nd Amendments says the right to bear arms shall not be infringed.
You know, in case the black helicopters start circling.

Easy to say since you're probably packing heat yourself.

I'm not sure I see your attempt at humor. Because someone wants to keep their rights in tact, they must be scared?

It's a lame attempt at marginalizing people that disagree

The vast majority of gun owners are not going to give up their guns in this country, it just ain't going to happen. They may do another one of the "assault weapons" bans but that won't make people give up the guns they already have.

It's not going to come to that. Those who believe it will are also buying into a bunch of hype.

There's a few states making laws to protect the government from banning their state citizens from losing their gun rights.... Props to them!

Thomas Jefferson: "The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."
Everyone should take a lesson from a founding father... JMO....

I don't think it will, at all... I think there's too much money and involvement with specific groups.. One of the biggest lobbyist in congress is the NRA... They fork out too much money to congressmen and women to get anything banned....

Funny hpw a gun control advocate in Congress protected himself with a pistol...one of the one's proposed to be banned.
I have a Rem 870 handy just for the purpose of picking it up and pumping it once. Any intruder in my home would do a 180 and Bolt. By brother-in-law had that happen to him once and cocked his Mossberg once and the intruders pretty much broke each other's necks to high tail it the other way. Without that gun....who knows what would have happened. Yet, no one died and everything's fine.

Anytime you want to take away anything from people that they are used to practicing in there lives it becomes a problem. This is basic human reaction

Any way to attribute the debt and deficit to the deaths of some school children? Seems to be the only way to jump start our leaders to into action. Surely biden could form a task force to at least create a budget.

Stop and think a minute as to who has been the biggest beneficiary when it comes to claims the government want to take your guns away from you.

As the ex-right hand man to the Messiah said, "Never waste a good crisis". The laws being proposed has nothing to do with assault weapons are high-capacity clips. Those account for roughly 2% of the new laws. This is all about control and the incidents of a few people are affecting millions. One senator actually is proposing a bill to tax ammo and magazines at 50%. Another wants all gun owners to submit to psych tests and another wants annual registration or lose the right for life. And another wants the gun to stay with the owner and at death the state retains control. Hundreds of these are being drafted that have nothing to do with protecting children. It's all about control of the masses.

I'll take you word that it is in the hundreds but the real question is not how many are being drafted but rather how many are gaining traction.
