Note the part where it says "seizure" of said guns. Don't the Democrats realize this plays right into the NRA's "We told you so" stance. I'm surprised the NRA doesn't put this on billboards all over the country:

http://www.legis.ga.gov/Legislation/20152016/154275.pdf

Obviously, sending Law Enforcement on gun seizure raids all over Georgia might result in substantial casualties on all sides. You wonder, have these idiots thought this out to any degree?

Purely pandering to their base, it has no chance, they should still be hung for treason.

How stupid is that list? An Anschutz target rifle is illegal because of its stock? Any Olympic shooters live in that state?

I thought no one wanted to confiscate my guns?

Looks like a pretty long list of specific guns they want to confiscate plus a whole bunch of guns will safety features that make the gun safer as well.

This even goes farther than the nonsense in my home state of California. I have a few ca legal guns that would have to be confiscated if something like this ever passed.

Very surprising coming out of GA, but not really a high bar for gun control banning things like armor piercing bullets and .50 caliber. What's the problem, I would love to see the NRA put that up a billboard so they the Daily Show can increase their ratings, goo for a laugh.


"They're coming for your .50 caliber bullets oh the horror".

What crimes have been committed with a .50 BMG? What exactly would one do with it, rob a store?

If I were one of these representatives, I wouldn't give my address out or let my kids play outside without supervision.

Just sayin'.

The billboard would more likely read "No one believed us when we said 'seizure' ".
