What guns has the Federal Government taken from you? You claim more then 10. List them and any proof of ownership such as a receipt or picture of you on a hunting trip and we'll start the ball rolling on getting your guns back. But you are making it very difficult for that process to start since you aren't listing the guns you took, any proof of ownership and when they were taken.

Were they taken by Bill Clinton? George W Bush? Obama?

You are being a idiot. Your premise is banned guns from being sold aren't "taken away" since they never were in possession. The only reason some Libs haven't forced confiscation is because they would loose power both by the ballot box and also with armed resistance.

Tell me this cityperson, why did Holder and Obama lie about Mexican weapons to justify a new ban? What was their motive to lie to people in order to justify a ban?

I just want to know how many guns the Federal Gov't has taken from you. According to the poll it looks like they only take guns from people who are conservative and have more than 10 guns

And yes, weapons coming across the border is a important issue.

I live on the border and it certainly is true. In Cananea, not far from my home 20 people died in one shootout including 5 Police Officers. The weapons were all bought at Gun Shows. Anyone who thinks the Feds aren't following those weapons back to the states is a fool

Holder and Obama reasoned the ban should be reissued because the supposed majority of weapons in Mexican drug crime were from America when in fact only a small perecentage was. They falsified statistics.

The poll says "taken by the Federal Government" here, in Ca, SKS rifles with detachable mags were confiscated by the state, so, none!

Way to NOT answer the question, CP. You should run for public office!

If governments were truely concerned about drug crime they would legalize it which Democrats and Republicans are failures that way. However using falsified excuses to ban American's freedoms only has one conclusion. That they just don't want you to have them because , because...

Because they are elitists who think they have a right to be more powerful than the everyday American.

Do you honestly believe that drug lords would buy their weapons from America at a higher price when they can get unregistered weapons surplus straight from all of the central and south American countries that have been sold or brought there by the USSR and USA? A real AK-47 in El Salvador can be bought for next to nothing compared to the risk and higher price of buying a replica AK in America.

And gunstores don't sell grenades, a prefered weapon of drug gangs in Mexico so where are those coming from eh? Walk into any gun store in the USA and ask to buy a hand grenade and see how far you get......

But like a good little puppet you are fed BS by politicians and since they are your party politicians you just go with it......
