There won't be another "assault" weapons ban... too many Patriots are "woke" now. Originally Posted by texassapper

It's also helped in Gores defeat in 2000.

I honestly think the lefty politicians use it as a talking point to rally voters but realize what actually poking the bear does by passing legislation. It makes them lose!

I agree that restricting people with "mental issues" from owning a gun can become too restrictive. Do you have any statements from people on the LEFT that you feel are too restrictive?

And can you cite some statements from politicians who support background checks to buy ammunition or tax ammunition? I tried to find such statements but could not. Certainly possible that one or two politicians support such actions but I doubt it is something supported by the majority on the left. Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXX

For the liberals statements on mental issues. It was something Feinstein said, in relation to military personnel not being included in a 2012 bill making mental folk not able to get guns, and that all the military should be included, cause they are mental.. Though it seems that quote was taken out of context/debunked..


One or two politicians proposed the bill. Did the bill get passed? Did it ever reach a vote?

As I stated, I figured that one or two politicians support background checks to purchase ammunition or taxing ammunition. It is not a position backed by most people whether they be liberal or not.

You can't hide it anymore and middle America will certainly make it an issue for the 2018 elections and you will lose. Big time! Originally Posted by gfejunkie

Regarding your 2nd link, I found some interesting comments on the poll:

"One caveat is that other polls have shown that many Americans do not know what the Second Amendment is. In 1999, for instance, a Hearst Newspapers poll found that 59 percent of respondents said they did not know the purpose of the Second Amendment."

"Beyond that, the poll showed that a plurality of Americans do not see the Second Amendment as something set in stone. Forty-six percent said they favored modifying the Second Amendment to allow for stricter regulations, compared with 39 percent who were opposed. More than three-quarters of Democrats said they supported modifying the Second Amendment, as did more than one-quarter of Republicans."

So, many on both sides have problems with the 2nd Amendment. As expected, more on the Democratic side than the Republican side.

Yes, we will see in about 7 months just how much such issues mean to voters. I believe Democrats will pick up many House seats and will in all likelihood take control. I assume you are saying that Republicans will increase their number of seats in the House. If I am wrong I will admit it. If you are wrong I expect you to admit it.

Would you buy a ticket on a plane where the pilot admitted he wasn't a pilot?





Many level headed folks put that age around 20 weeks.

Many sane level headed people think 21 years old a good age to legally buy a gun.

Are you starting to understand why each side does not trust the other?

They both are hypocrites but only see the other side as such. Originally Posted by WTF

the left alternates their attacks on the constitution

some days they concentrate on the first amendment and free speech

other days its the second that they scheme to destroy

their approach is multi-faceted, like the indirect approach by discrediting the founders with their termite army of covetous lay abouts chewing away

then something happens and they jump on some current event to, as they say, never let a crisis go to waste

every once in awhile someone like Ginsberg lets it out that the whole thing needs to go

and then again, there's college lecturer obama lamenting all the negative rights in the constitution, by that he means the limitations on government

all the while their congressional and think tank emotional students of the law termites slowly try to redefine the constitution away
