I think it’s funny that many people still think that any new firearm legislation will happen. By that I mean actual legislation house—->senate——>whitehouse. Instead watch them rupture some colons by simply regulating, such as they did with bump stocks, “Sorry boys Mr. Pen says they’re now NFA items.”
Yeah, when people aren't on guard and like "their guy" that's when its by far, the easiest.Quote:

So, if it's not combined with anything, nah, not much to worry about. Maybe Donny *actually* wants to get some of those 53 senators to flip, so he can brag about bipartisan results. He wants to combine it with something that if passed, will let republicans who vote for it save face in the name of immigration.
How confident are you that 7% of "republican" senators - including some from liberal states, like ours - won't vote for something like an AW bill especially if it's package with immigration. Because the left WILL bite the bullet on immigration to get the candy they really want. The loss of that tiny, thin little line - any four guys or gals out of 53 - will get you an AWB. And what do you bet that more than 7% of republicans in the senate personally vilifies "AW". If more than 7% of the gun owning public is a fudd, what does that say for the senate, of whom, even a lot of the republicans don't own firearms?
But yeah, don't be concerned or anything. All the gun bans already happen under Obama, when everyone is watching, the "right" is unified, the NRA is strong, and people are threatening all out war. Yup, that's when they did all the banning.
They can ban all they want. I know who knows how many people with lathes, mills, welders, etc. When an afghan goat herder with maybe a kindergarten reading level can sit in the mountains cranking out rifles that will stop you out to maybe 800+ yards. Using nothing but his hands, feet and good hot coals. What do you think somebody with a generator and tooling can do.Quote:

I'm beyond giving fuck who cries over what and how many legislators need to be flipped for sensible gun laws. You think 2 A sanctuary cities are a blip now. Just wait.
What about barrels?
They'll trade immigration for gun control, then "fix" immigration when they plan to win everything in 2020.Quote:

I'm trying to understand the strategy. There is an absolute sense of urgency in gun confiscation that is being openly discussed, even knowing it would cost lives and the legitimacy of gov. For years I've been reading and hearing the strategy is "Sundown at Coffin Rock." But that's doesn't line up with what's being discussed.
Making all black rifle owners "white nationalists" (RACISTS!!!) isn't a way to achieve disarmament. It only polarizes and creates resistance. Simultaneously telling people you want to eradicate them while demanding they disarm isn't strategic if you want to accomplish a long-term, multi-generational goal. The Left's narratives on white people and race traitors (minorities who don't fall in line) are beyond alarming. Some are calling this a de-humanization campaign and I'm not sure I disagree, it just doesn't have clear boundaries.
Remember, Trump got pounced for saying people who hate America should go back? There are Progs saying certain people shouldn't exist. I remember Clinton using the word "irredeemable." They are fine with this language and these ideas.
It's like the Left wants chaos and uncertainty but not the perception that they did it and the resulting accountability.

"Ban eyeglasses! It enhances the accuracy of rogue murderers!"
Yeah, "white males" are the problem if you follow the MSM.
The first 2 look like brothers.
...and I still refuse to refer to these killers as "shooters".
Yeah, I say shooters sometimes too. It's the lexicon and intentional.Quote:

They look soft and the first two look generally worthless. The Dayton shooter at least manages a smile.
