Feinstein & Cuomo Admit Planning Australian Style Government Gun Buy Back

[BuffCyclist]

Are some guns really worth FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS?! -who wouldn't jump at the chance to sell a gun for that much money?!?!

Time for me to go out and buy 100 Jiminez arms 22lr pistols, and I guess I'll throw in some High Points too, just for good measure! Gotta make SOME money off this shit since all of my guns cost over $500.

Besides, "Infowars" seems at times to have the credibility of the "Onion".

I was gonna say something about that... I vote the op gets 5 lashes for posting an "Infowars" link!

Infowars actually has as much credibility as the Boulder Daily Camera. That is to say, several steps behind the Onion and Duffelblog...

Geez 90 percent of the firearms most people own are worth more than 500 each. What a freaking joke. Shows just how much these clowns know.

Except that the instant a platoon of blue helmets is put out on American streets for any purpose other than a parade, large portions of the US military will take up arms against the Fed.Gov. There are a lot more Oath Keepers in the US military than you'd ever believe. That's why I always find talk of NATO or UN troops being used on US soil to be silly.

I agree. Also just curious. Does anyone have realistic numbers of UN troops actually in this country? And where they are located? I just cannot believe the US military would stand by and allow UN troops to police our country.

looks like they're trying for the second, fourth, and fifth all at once.

UN "Peacekeepers" as they call their troops, are contributed by UN Member Nation's military forces. The United States currently has no troops contributed to the UN force. The countries that contribute to the blue helmets are: Canada, Brazil, Italy, Nigeria, Rwanda, India, Jordan, Japan, Cambodia, Singapore, and Australia. If they ever did deploy UN troops on our soil in any capacity I foresee a lot of "holy" blue helmets...
