November 11, 201214 yr Oh man, just thinking about the billions of dollars they'd have to pony up made me laugh. They can barely put together a budget for the stuff we have now. Try tacking on all the man hours and compensation that would be required for a ban of that scope. Yet it hasn't stopped them from spending more money than several generations can make. The bottom line is, they would simply print more money then tax us to pay for the elimination of our second amendment rights. $10bn, $50bn, $2tn, makes no difference they will spend any amount of OUR money they have to to pass their agenda.
November 11, 201214 yr As I recall, when NJ enacted their AWB in 1993 (which is what the federal ban was based on - Biden can never do anything original), there was no grandfathering and no compensation. Yes you could apply for a an AW license in a limited time frame and IIRC that was limited in scope also. It was pretty much "Sell it out of state or demil it". Has something changed (other than the amount of EBR's out there) since then? Adios, Pizza Bob
November 12, 201214 yr http://redalertpolitics.com/2012/11/10/southern-states-issue-white-house-petition-asking-permission-to-secede-from-the-union/ Wonder what would happen if this was remotely possible?
November 12, 201214 yr I kind of see it like a controlled burn. By having a small easily contained fire you can prevent a major Forrest fire. In general the US is moving more and more to pro gun positions, but as of now there is still enough support of anti gun laws that the government has the potential to still move towards anti gun positions especially if it were to happen in small bits. The controlled burn is the economy. It's still pretty darn bad out there. Lautenberg will wake up every few months and ramble on about guns, but the fact is that I don't even think it is on the president's radar screen.

It seems to me they are trying to thier best to deflect attention away from the economy.
November 13, 201213 yr WOW. I mean, I know waxman has always been an @ss, but wow... he'll be one of the first ones drug out like Mussolini!

November 14, 201213 yr GREAT SIGNATURE, TK421!! Thanks, I read that somewhere and thought it so perfectly summed up the stupidity behind the issue I had to steal it. I recently saw a shirt (somewhere online) with the saying, I should have book marked it.
November 14, 201213 yr TK421, why aren't you at your post? My feet hurt and you would think with all the freaking cool technology around me someone would have invented a freaking rifle sling by now! WTF!
