    Default Actually a pretty fair story on mandated gov't transfer...

    (AP) Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke's recent vow to take away people's AR-15 and AK-47 rifles raised one big question: How is it possible to round up the millions of such guns that exist in the United States?

    Slightly less biased than normal, maybe. Fair? No. It was still completely one sided on the argument, just discussing how it might be difficult to ban weapons.
    Never complain; never explain.

    It's one of the few I am seen that actually acknowledges the magnitude of "military style semi-auto" ownership, and not just implying they are owned by a few 10,000 basement ogres and wannabe psychopaths.

    "Constitutional rights aren't based on what you like. What's the slippery slope of this?" said Lara C. Smith, the national spokeswoman for the Liberal Gun Club, a nonprofit group of liberal gun owners. "If they're going to take away these rights, what other rights are they going to take away?"
    If only more liberals thought this way.

    Pre 6/2013 - good start, not close to being fair.

    Pre 1986- starting to be slightly fair.

    Everyone talks about how many ARs have been sold, but I don't think I've seen figures for how many AKs have been imported. I'm sure it's out there, I just don't remember seeing it.

    If the article calls it anything other than "confiscation", then it's not telling the truth...
    'Unless a law-abiding individual has a firearm for his or her own defense, the police typically arrive after it is too late. With rigor mortis setting in, they mark and bag the evidence, interview bystanders, and draw a chalk outline on the ground' - Judge Benitez , 2019, Duncan v. Becerra.

    'One of the ordinary modes by which Tyrants accomplish their purpose without resistance is by disarming the people and making it an offense to keep arms.' Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story, 1840.

    Bans and confiscation will work about as well as prohibition did.
