    You guys watching the FEDERAL Assault Weapons ban push?

    Normally I would not care, being in California, anything that would be outlawed is already outlawed here, but it looks like they're reaching for pretty much EVERYTHING semi automatic, including NON-black ugly guns. Believe it or not, the proposed new FEDERAL ban actually outlaws guns that even CALIFORNIA has not banned.

    Thoughts? The media seems to think it's coming. I'm not so sure. There are TONS of pro gun states left (I Hope), and if the politicians pull a stunt like they did back in 1994, it will come back to bite them back hard.

    The media NEVER mentions how the Democrats lost 44 seats in Congress in one fell swoop because of the Clinton Gun ban.

    I thought I read somewhere that dc would have and was ready to pass the bump stock ban and the dems slid in a
    change to add something like 200 firearms and this is the reason it failed.
    While no one ever listens to me,
    I am constantly being told to be quiet.

    It was a democrat that stuck the machine gun ban into a bill that made interstate sales a lot easier. Unfortunately Reagan never read the bill until after he signed it and found the machine gun ban hidden inside. At least if true, the bums failed this time.

    Pelosi submitted an AWB in 2013 which failed. Do you think the Dems will get it passed this time with Republicans controlling the Senate, House and White House?

    I'm still wondering why this latest shooting is the one that is getting the ball rolling on all of these anti-gun proposals that are actually gaining steam. Either way, screw all these people trying to stomp on the Bill of Rights.

    That's easy. I don't recall student activism after other shootings. They went to the FL state house, got on TV, planning a match on D.C. later this month. The Dems have jumped on board to orchestrate, fund, etc.

    The Dims will never let a good tragedy go to waste, especially when it will further their agenda of disarming the American people. They've found usable puppets to easily control to get their message across. Add to this all the money coming in from Communist organizations all over the world, and they, now, have the puppets, the money, the Communist propaganda outlets, and all the traitorous, liberal politicians in place all at once. There is no way they're going to let this "coming together" of resources sit idle. They're making their move while the "iron is still hot."

    mindless types for their knee-jerk masters, most are paid just to be there.




    backlash on all this is probably going to be pretty big come november. Then the dems will blame it on crap like "voter suppression" .

    People were wondering how a huge bill like patriot act could have been ready and waiting for 911.
    I'm sure it was all pure coincidence.

    Wasn't the Patriot Act passed something like 6 weeks after 9/11?

    Democrat / Communists have been trying to neuter the Second Amendment for decades now. It won't happen as long as Trump is in the Oval office or another real Republican. Even if the Dems gain control I don't see it realistically happening unless something radical changes within our government.

    IE: some kind of catastrophic man made/natural disaster that they would take full advantage of.

    Like mandatory mental health screening and the cdc being able to study gun control.
