Ryan, even if it turns out to be a useless effort, no body is worse off for it. If it has some beneficial effect, everybody gains. To believe that gun control has nothing to do with reducing gun violence is the stupidest comment ever.No politician is thinking two generations ahead. They're all focused on the next election. The next generation will have no more interest in firearms than they do in cars. Who cares? We won't be around to fuss about it. Look around. Our gun hobby is aging out. The 1950s is not coming back. We don't need to worry about that because we'll all be gone. Relax; nothing is going to change significantly in our lifetime.

But they respond to the Leftist special interest groups who are. So effectively they are behaving as if they were. You cant be so obtuse as to not know that Bill.

Do you think he would just blurt out that he was mesmerized by the MAGA rally over in Grand Rapids. Was glued to the TV, made the grandkids bring him popcorn. You can thank the President for the new relaxed Bill.

Gun control has nothing to do with reducing "gun violence", it has to do with controlling people, mostly our darker skinned brothers/sisters. When I was growing up our African American neighbors were tacitly allowed single barreled shotgun to hunt with, but it was "like pulling teeth" to get something more sophisticated. Then when "Civil Rights" made it illegal to refuse to sell them a gun, other impediments were thought up. Of course, Democrats were in charge then( the Democrat primary may as well had been the general election), and all the "Jim Crow" laws came from them; also there were no Republicans or Independents in the Klan. Since a lot of our darker skinned friends were poor, the "Saturday Night Specials" and "cheap foreign surplus military guns" were some of the first to receive the attention of the "people controllers". Now they are after the most popular rifle ever- divide and conquer.

Der Ami, I almost always enjoy your posts, and I'm often impressed with the depth of your knowledge about guns and gun making. I have to say, however, that your post about gun control being a racist plot is simply silly. "... there were no Republicans in the Klan." You have to be kidding. You're old enough to remember the civil rights movement. It wasn't Young Republicans who road buses to Mississippi to register voters. Strom Thurmmond was a Democrat until Democrats passed the Civil Rights Act. He then switched to the Republican Party to oppose the new law.

Yabut Bill, what about the dems that didnt change partys? Stroms been gone for a bit, dont you remember dems getting Lott to step down because he wished ole Strom a happy birthday? Didnt that old coot Byrd make it well into your new and improved progressive era? Nice fellow, eh?

Jeremiah 29:11
O.M Jer 29:16 Know that thus saith the LORD of the king that sitteth upon the throne of David, and of all the people that dwelleth in this city, and of your brethren that are not gone forth with you into captivity; Jer 29:17 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will send upon them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figs, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil. Jer 29:18 And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, and an astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations whither I have driven them: As the Apostle Paul told the young evangelist Timothy, one needs to Study the Word of Truth & handle it aright, not picking out a single verse & MIS-applying it to suit an opinion..

I know a bit about Paul, Miller. That's as good counsel now as it was then.
