And he does a great job of it-Teddy!. Just hope old Mitch McConnell keeps those gun seizure bills passed by the House where they belong- in da crapper. RWTF

What I think the Democrats are really thinking about is an outright ban on AR-15 type gun but no buy back. Simple turn in or we throw you in jail. How would they buy them back? How to establish a fair value for a gun which the owner might have between 500 and 1500 dollars invested in? Flat rate price, show cost invested to get reimbursed or just here is 50 bucks for your now outlawed gun. Getting ten percent or less of value in return I suspect will lead to a lot of guns being reported stolen.

What amazes me is that the left seems to think the right are full of sheep. We don't need quiet, safe places. We don't need comfort animals. We don't need hate speech, which is anything we don't say, banned. And last time I looked the right had about 300 million guns, with several trillion bullets, a clear willingness to shoot them and very little tolerance to be bullied into doing things we really think are unconstitutional.

I think bans are a smoke screen. They would take it if they could get it, but I believe the goal is to �compromise� with enough rinos to give backdoor registration a foothold.

On point analysis, but, far, far, above the ability of either chris or bill to understand.

Of course, they will paint that as Craig�s fault, not their own inability to grasp a simple point. These are people who can understand the constitutional idea of a right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, until they drive past an abortion clinic.

Then, it is forgotten.

Best,
Ted

Obviously, none of you guys heard what the lefty (don't even know his name) actually SAID about AR 15s. Maybe someone will put it in quotes for us.

And, he said it about sk's, and he generally mentioned weapons of war. What I believe is still important is that no law abiding gun owner, on either side of the aisle, can point to honest and factual reasons for their policy and the tactics they're using or give a factual assessment of how the results will either improve safety or quench their appetite for more.

The only reason for being wowed by what some of these characters say, is to legitimize their position. I still believe they will take an inch or a mile, both gladly, and it will happen only because, policy makers on the right will capitulate to their feelings.

I believe registration, due to taxing, fees and criminalization, will be far more significant and consequential than any firearm specific ban that may or may not happen. If the law is followed, there is no 'loophole', so what do you think needs closing?

OK, here's what Beto O'Rourke had to say:

�Hell yes, we�re going to take away your AR-15, your AK-47,�

Message to those Libtards and FUDD's among us who continue to say that Liberal Left Democrats pose no threat to gun rights.... What this Democrat candidate is talking about is confiscating the legally purchased and Constitutionally protected private property of law abiding U.S. citizens.

And nothing would make this process easier to accomplish than a National Universal Gun Registry, i.e., Universal Background Checks.

Once you hand someone the power to take away your guns, you have handed them the power to do or take anything else from you and your children. And we have a number of grown men that regularly post here who are that stupid.

Yup, that's what I'm talking about. For all of you that didn't take in the debate, Keith gave it to you. Yup, it's confiscation. He's the first lefty to admit what the agenda is.

Right on the money, Keith. That's exactly what that idiot from El Paso said, and means to do if elected our next POTUS== and the 2nd. and 4th amendments be dammned-- He's a rabid zealot, and is potentially more dangerous than any of the other clowns that participated in the ABC lead event. He even has that mantra on T-shirts now, and if those of us who read this forum, NRA members or not, don't wake up and see that this O'Rourke clown doesn't go down in flames, we could be stuck with him-- don't think so- stuff happens, and if we fall asleep at the switch, we will pay the price for our loss of vigilance.

Whoa. Aren't you guys forgetting the alive-and-well 51 other constitutions? All politics is local, and often more effective than the federal. NRA was well established as local affiliates long before the 2008 decision. Brady took the national path and went nowhere. State constitutions sometimes offer more protection that the US Constitution. Organize. Supreme Courts can be picky on what cases they will hear, and pols run to the woods on the big ones. Organize. There's big risk to relying on federal courts and federal rights. Organize.
