It would be nice if Trump could ask him about this at the debate and watch Biden squirm and then ask about the Hunter scandal and the packing of the courts, and the big tax increases etc etc.. but Trump will probably be too busy again defending himself from the hostile moderator and now they can shut off his mic, silencing the voice of the President.



They shut us down and forced us to give up our civil Rights in the face of the virus so what is to stop them from enacting draconian laws, Executive Orders, mandates and violations of our Rights in the name of public safety the next time there is a mass shooting?



When they do come for the guns and they have pledged they would, I wonder how many will willingly give them up?

It is funny how they can't find millions of illegal aliens and Hillary's emails but boy I bet they will root out every Second amendment loving guy with a BB gun.

  • Force people with existing clips to either register them with the government or sell them in a buyback program
  • Ban the manufacture of real assault weapons (Giffords proposal, they don't want police or military to have them)
  • Ban gun ownership of anyone convicted of misdemeanor hate crime
  • Ban online purchase of all bullets, guns, and GUN PARTS
  • Implement snitch clause to forcibly remove guns from someone family members accuse of something (“red flag” law)
  • Force eventual production of 100% "smart guns" (electronic owner recognition, wonder if Biden wants government to have a kill switch too)
  • Hold adults criminally and civilly liable for directly or negligently giving a minor access to a firearm, "regardless of whether the minor actually gains possession of the firearm".

The hate crime concept is a very dangerous one. Most reasonable people assume hate crimes is something like a perpetrator beating up a person because they are black, jewish, muslim or something similar. The problem is that "hate crime" can be weaponized as we have seen. The far leftists define it as any free speech which causes them stress or makes them uncomfrotable. For example, if the far left ever came to power it would be entirely possible that lets say if a person was convicted of embezzling money from their job company and said it was because they wanted to get their transgender boss in trouble, they could be convicted of a "misdemeanor hate crime" and banned from owning a weapon for life

And yes, if you have a gun in the house and a child, Biden wants to prosecute you. He is literally proposing this, if you have a gun in your night stand, even if your son or daughter does not know it or ever touch it, you can be prosecuted.

Mercy, mercy mercy! Food for thought -- my state has a large contingent of gun owners who refuse to register their firearms. IMHO akin to refusing to register a baseball bat, a hammer, a fireplace poker or a knife. Those good people do not believe they need government permission to own a tool.

I'd really like to see an accurate accounting of just how many unregistered firearms there are in this country, but of course that's not possible.

First I thought you copy-pasted from his web page, but then I realized you did not. You re-worded everything in order to misrepresent it. The only thing it says about 3 bullets, is when it mentioned the current hunting laws which restricts hunters to 3 shells when hunting for migratory birds. You twisted that into "an purchase of clips with more than 3 bullets".

Why do it?

Does this mean a previously-approved Joe Biden shotgun with a capacity of more than 3 shotgun shells would become illegal?

Obama didn’t campaign on it

Biden and Kameltoe with the help of Beto Odork are full energized to enact Gun Control

And a very small fraction of gun deaths. Vast majority every year are single person handgun related

But that's not the issue. Gun rights are constitutionally protected as a check against government tyranny. It's the last stand to everything the people hold dear and I don't know if you understand this yet so you should take a minute to realize, this is a line people will not allow the government to cross.

It's a hard line that will absolutely trigger a civil war if they attempt to take away your right to defend your life and liberty. They can continue to defund the police, refuse to prosecute criminals and even let them out of prison but this they will never be able to do, people would rather die than live under the boot of an oppressive government
