This video is a good one on dealing with an active shooter. It also illustrates my point that if they ban the black rifles, they will go after the semi-auto pistols next and if they ban the semi-auto pistols, they will go after shotguns and if they ban the shotguns, revolvers will be on the chopping block.

I know it seems scary to some now, but you're discounting the power of votes from the 2A people, and Americans in general who don't want guns banned.

The snowflakes and liberals don't run this country (yet).

I don't want your shotgun, just your assault weapons.

Well, I don't want to give them to you, and the law says I do not need to. So I want you to quit trying to illegally take them away.

There are many places where guns are legally outlawed. Tinker with those areas to make them crime free, show how it's done and then we can talk more about what needs to be done here.

fear mongers on the right smdh. Every poll I've seen show the overwhelming majority of Americans want two things:
1. better background checks;
2. Reinstitute ban of AR-15 types guns that GOP chose not to renew in 1995.


90% of americans have repeatedly said DO NOT outlaw guns as whole! Limit them like other things are limited to reduce the changes of serious bodily harm or death.

You would think that the ARs had a mind of their own, and just took it upon themselves to get up, and with no help from any human anywhere, just decided to kill some people! But the shotguns? Nah, they're better behaved. Sure they can kill just as many, but they don't "look" as menacing.

Good grief.

No. YOUR move.

(Do not forget that about three percent of us will trade our life for our liberty, just as we swore to when we took our oath of office, and thee percent of us is more than all of the law enforcement that are willing to break their oath of office.)

The Second Amendment trumps all the squealing. We now control Congress, the White House, and the Supreme Court. The Founding Fathers are beginning to show a crinkle on their lips. They won't really smile, however, until we repeal the Gun Control Act, National Firearms Act, and all the others that infringe our right in even the tiniest way.

The Constitution was formulated in a particular way to restrain the uninformed mob.

Hurrah for the Founding Fathers, the greatest bunch of felons ever.

Amendments are equally important in a civilized government. We the people can modify certain antiquated laws that hinder the rights of it's citizens. We need assault weapons because? .answer: we don't. Anymore then we need nuclear bombs. Be that as it may, a law can be changed. It will be welcoming to have this younger generation set the stage for safety and limiting the types of weapontry .
