Since the Dems can't improve upon the mostly successful Trump presidency, they taken up the mantel of gun control and they're trying to MAKE it an issue.

If we keep letting them take our rights they won't stop until the US becomes a country with privileges granted by the government instead of rights. It will start with the 2A. I'm tired of watching this country transform into a socialist s***hole. 3 hours ago, FDHog said: I want my cap guns back! I had them in the early 80's.

Kevin125 4,772 Posted December 22, 2020 Well...it will be interesting to see the reaction to an AR or semi-auto ban. Free states should just Say eff off to any of these federal laws. It works for illegals and ICE. Stop cooperating with the FBI and ATF. Declare the state 2A sanctuaries. NJ would be screwed in so much as there would be no sanctuary and all local LEOs would drag anyone who is defiant out of their home by their ankles. There would not be a single LEO would defy orders to enforce 2A violations. They will just say....I have to do my job. And yeah, I get the pressure they are under. They have kids, homes and bills to pay. It isn’t easy to walk away from your chosen profession on a whim and not have a solid plan to survive. But it still sucks. Not all of these encounters will end well. For our part.... we can either give up.....keep what you have and hope no one notices.......if they do notice..get arrested or lose a gun fight (the only outcome possible in that gun fight).....or ...move to a free state. My suggestion is the last one. I’d hate to hear about people getting new holes in them or every night being date night with Bubba. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
njJoniGuy 2,131 Posted December 22, 2020 If I recall correctly, open carry of handguns was legal here in the PRNJ until 1962. So the situation here has gone to shit in many of our own lifetimes. A crying shame to see the Garden State turn into the Glorious Peoples Republik right before our eyes. As Jersey goes, so goes the Nation, I'm afraid.

Sorry - but where did I say that in my post - that there have been no erosion of 2A rights? Go ahead read my post again, I will wait till you can cite where I said that - you inferred that and I was not talking about 2a rights at all - stick to the topic at hand stop deflecting if you want to have a conversation. The gun control act of 68 was a turning point - but my post was not about guns. You are all ringing your hands over this election. Just as the left had rung their hands in 2016. Until you embrace the concept, that the entire political intelligentsia is corrupt, yes Trump as well - you are just the flip side of the same coin. Yes this country needs an awakening of a gov of the people, FOR the people, BY the people.......not political hacks of the left and right that care NOTHING about you, the citizen. Should Pelosi be in office at her age? Mconnel? Feinstein? Trump? *ALL HACKS* seeking to line their pockets with CASH on your hard work. Tell me - why are they - the 'ELITE" getting first crack at a vaccine and not the average Jane/Joe - I'll post this again - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisJM981 924 Posted December 22, 2020 You said we're being melodramatic concerning the state of our government and the proposed gun control agenda of the Biden campaign and the influence of Bloomberg's money. Sitting back and doing nothing may not affect you and I, but it will certainly affect our kids and theirs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This GOV moves slowly for a reason.....always has - looking back in history to the beginning - the same shit has been going on. Are they going to ban SEMI auto weapons - they will try, they will fail. Look to 2022... not even 2024. Have fail, be vigilant - dont hand ring....does no good...

It moves slowly and under normal political circumstances I wouldn't expect Dems to propose anything too draconian that will actually pass. If the R's keep the senate, the Dems will propose all sorts of ban and confiscation legislation. It keeps the base happy and both sides will use it as a cause for fundraising to fight the other side, enriching themselves along the way. If Dems take the senate they might enact lesser restrictive legislation. I don't think they'll go all in for confiscation unless they (socialists) are ready for a societal takeover. Once you slay the Golden Goose (Second Amendment) you lose that rally cry for fundraising, and that's what it's all about. We know they're playing the long game, but at some point they'll make their move. Bloomberg backs antigun candidates and has no problem running someone in a primary against an encumbant who isn't down with the gun control sickness, so, that's another factor as well. My fear is they will do enough to burden the right through restrictions and costs to reduce the number of people exercising their 2A. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FDHog 609 Posted December 22, 2020 All politicians put themselves before their constituents. There are tons of AR/semi owners in Dem states. It would be political suicide for them to vote for a ban or mandatory buyback. Hopefully all this nonsense is just for show. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
