It isn't guns, its the fact the feds want to completely violate a Constitutionally protected right.

From my perspective this is complete insanity and people who hold this belief should have their head examined. But seriously, if you are delusional enough to believe a civil war will be fought if 30 round clips or assault weapons are iillegalized: Are you mentally stable enough to responsibly own a gun in the first place?

I think reasonable people agree, mentally unstable people shouldn't be allowed legal possession guns. Believing in a coming civil war is indicative of mental instability, plain and simple.
You sure can ban 30 round clips... I have a lot of guns and i own a lot of 30 round magazines for them, but I never had a 30 round clip yet.. So No problem from me...

There won't be any war either. You can't enforce a ban even if you can get it passed which you can't.

There is no one to enforce such a foolish ban.

You gun grabbers just don't get any more STUPID ..

What we need to ban is stupid gun grabbers.... Your all INSANE!

You can only trample on people's rights so much before they push back. Revolutions have begun over lesser matters than this. Perhaps the gun grabbers should step back a bit and accept they have zero rights to do what they want to do.

There has been absolutely no indication of what the law would contain so based off of just that what you, and everyone else, are posting is lies. Also, the Bill of Rights only indicates "arms". so that could be one gun of a certain type and that would allow the law to be followed at with the strictest of limitations yet still be constitutional. People act as if they are not allowed every single type of weapon and as many as they want, and to get it with ease, that it is unconstitutional.

The 2nd only applies to fire arms..... Nothing else. One gun is one gun too many..

You won't get 1 gun..

Actually, Feinstein has posted details on her proposed ban. It will not be accepted.

That's "You're". A contraction of "You are".

No thanks necessary.

Evidently you do not know the meaning of the word infringe. Notice it doesn't say arm, it says arms.

Let me ask you a simple question:

Where does the government get the power to own "arms"?

I know it does, I was saying that people expect every sort of weapon to be available to them without any restrictions and they should be able to get them immediately.

The SCOTUS has ruled all arms in common use are protected. The proposed bans would ban some of the most popular arms.
