Roughly two dozen Democrats in the Senate have banded together to create a bill that bans “assault” weapons and the bump stock.
The coalition of comrades is being led by (unsurprisingly) Dianne Feinstein of California. “We’re introducing an updated Assault Weapons Ban for one reason: so that after every mass shooting with a military-style assault weapon, the American people will know that a tool to reduce these massacres is sitting in the Senate, ready for debate and a vote,” Feinstein said in a statement.
Isn’t there a similar “tool” already in play? It’s called a ban on murder. But Democrats don’t appear to care. They are concerned only with the destruction of rights. Congress previously enacted an assault weapons ban in 1994, but that legislation expired in 2004. It also failed to stop the Columbine shooting in Colorado, which happened in 1999. So claiming an assault weapons ban will “work” is naive at best, and fundamentally flawed at its core at worst.
The Democratic legislation would ban the sale, production, and transfer of military-style assault weapons, with some exceptions (because the government has to remain armed), though owners of these weapons would be able to keep those they already own. The bill would also ban magazines that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition.
It also would require a background check on any future trade or sale of an assault weapon covered by the legislation, require any guns grandfathered under the bill to be securely stored, and prohibit transferring high-capacity magazines.
The main issue here is that it’s only a matter of time before the comrades on the left are successful at disarming the citizenry. For a nation already in the grips of soft tyranny (the United States is ranked 23rd in the world for individual freedom. So much for the land of the free), it won’t take much more for the few freedoms we have left to evaporate. Gun rights may be the only thing left keeping us in the top 50 on that list.

Basically Feinstein is just perpetuating her demonic reputation as a communist Zionist whore who works for the NWO and not you.
Honestly, I suspect Feinstein is invested heavily firearms manufacturers and she goes on these legislative tirades every few years to spur sales.
Dead serious.
Face it, the AR market had bottomed until last month. You could pick up a cheap one for under 400, a decent one for 5-600 and a quality piece for 900. And thats retail. Hit the private market and the deals get stupid low. Shes’s probably just given the market the single best boost its had since Obama left office and we thought Hillery was coming.
good point
You are right. Obammy was one of the best firearms/ammo dealers representative they could have ever had. Guns was one best things (other than lies and bullshit) that he ever sold.
Scroll down to the “Elites & Gun Control” section:
judaism DOT is/perpetrators.html
Damn man…. Is’nt there a house or something that can land on this witch?
meh………
Come and get them.
You don’t understand, this is great. We are already armed to the teeth and the snowflakes aren’t. It’ll be shotguns VS Beachballs. After it’s over we go talk to the Dems and explain reality to them.
Nothing great about more BS laws.
I agree
Menzo, agreed. Let them pass whatever they want. It’s all null and void in my book. I’m not giving up anything. Anyone who tries to forcibly take anything from me will die, plain and simple. Our weapons will have to speak for us eventually.
Maybe they should make a law banning murder. Oh, yeah, it already is illegal. Why then didn’t the shooter abide by the law? More laws… more nonsense.
I hope there are no Demonrats left afterward!
Para,
If we do it right, there won’t be any Democrats left.
Rellik, if a democrat tries to take anything from me, he/she will be laying on their ground in their own blood.
Ever feel like saying, “Ha Ha…. too late”? Add in I happen to own the 2 major ‘black’ scary rifle types and the bump-fire for that matter for both. But… I don’t want to be selfish. When shills like Feinstein et al can do their jobs without armed guards; well, then I might consider not carrying as well. … (naw, I didn’t mean that… I’m carrying til I meet up with Charlton Heston just like he told me to)
If a rogue government comes for your guns & ammo ….. give them your ammo !!! 🙂
All the left is about to do is bring on 4TH generational urban warfare, the likes of which the lefts never experienced. Once that conflict starts, there will be no turning it off, no time outs, no safe spaces.
Looks like a new election cycle is in full swing again.
Why did Dems send and give arms to “moderate” rebels or how many times have we heard of weapons falling into enemy hands ?
Even if the 2nd Amendment was somehow overturned or re-written, millions of patriots would refuse and it would be the largest blood bath in history.
Nah, big but over by lunch.
I don’t believe you are paranoid enough. Our country would be destroyed if they completely repealed the 2nd.
You missed my point: “If it’s war they want, let it start here” and now. One way or another it won’t last long.
Hope you are right.
Yeah that’s what they though right at the start of the Civil War. The South claimed that they would win and they’d would be back before the fall harvest. WRONG. But hell I don’t have a fall harvest to worry about so let’er rip!
You may be right Patriot, we may very lose, but I’d rather fight and die as a free man, then spend a lifetime as a slave.
for the 1st 2.5 years the South won. But Lincoln was determined to keep the South from leaving the union AT ANY COST. LINCOLN KILLED 500,000 MEN BY REFUSING TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE SOUTH. Had the north handled the disputes correctly, the South would have never left, AND would have come back without a war. But the north had UNLIMITED RESOURCES…..and the South didn’t. It was only a matter of time….
Menzo, you nailed it again. I live by the original Constitution and Bill Of Rights; nothing else.
Don’t forget the old saying: “Anyone worth shooting once, is worth shooting twice”
Si’.
roger that.
which is why they will continue to phase out firearms as viable fighting tools for the general public slowly. TPTB will never touch the 2A. They dont have to: The have already established that we the people no longer have a right to weapons equavalent to what the military has (a founding principle), and that more effective firearms can be regulated or at least heavily taxed.
In 50 or 75 years, what will military hardware look like? You will still be using your chemically propelled, semi-auto metal thrower. How will it fare against the technology of the future?
Thats where they have put us. In 100 years, unless things go completely sideways, we will own the effective equivalent of blackpowder rifles.
I don’t believe it will take 100 years, maybe 25 at best. But even if that were not going to happen, they have no need to take guns away. Basically, American gun-owning “Patriots” (myself included) are a bunch of pussies. Think about it. The country was stolen from “the people” long ago, and today is nothing but a cesspool of treason, and high crimes and misdemeanors in high places. The founders could never have imagined such Tyranny as we have today. And what do we all do? NOTHING! “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” Looks like we have taken this as a command, and not a warning!
Steve, the longest journey always starts with the first step, so as Robert Oppenheimer once said, i have become death, destroyer of worlds, lets get this party started!!!
Enemies foreign and domestic
War Thog
You got that right.
I will not obey any law that takes away my right of self defense. At almost 70 I don’t have much to lose but I will make the cost as high as possible.
67 myself but I’ll be with you.
50something here and im there too
50
59 and not giving up
ditto.
Menzo I’m at 60 and will go out with a bang if it comes to that.
62, I’m ready to go.
52 and I’ve made my peace with my maker. I drew the line a long time ago. When they make me a criminal, I’ll get to make all the things that only criminals can have. There will be no putting the lid back on once opened.
Citizen if you’re talking about Pandora’s Box I’m with you.
Me too!!!!!
63 —- sheeeeeesshhhh we’re a bunch of ol’ f*rts, LOL. But ya’ll know? I just bet all of us OF’s can still put in a full day’s work (just be a bit sorer than the young-uns come evenin’ is all).
59 and as I will tell those that come to the door to take my guns. I have made my choice….don’t let me help you make yours!
67 and loaded for bear. Take them away and everything else goes..
Damn, I’m the baby of this bunch. If people our ages don’t take care of this our country will be lost.
55 just turned
Question: Does this Bitch have any idea about how many of these types of guns are out there, and how long they last? I’ve got a 30-06 in the basement that’s nearly 100 years old and made of steel and wood, my AR is Aluminum and plastic. GOK how long it will last.
so in another 50 years, how will they fare against the constant progression of military technology? Newer, full body armor? Drones that trianulate gunshots and move to neutralize the source? All viable technologies, some in use, others in development.
Its not looking good for us in the flesh-and-blood patriot category.
Unless trump and the GOP cave, it will never happen.
We just haven’t had the right crisis or # of them yet to get them to cave….yet. If they refuse, it’s so more and more false flag attacks will happen. I suspect more aimed at the conservative right as the country concert as well as a Texan baptist church.
Cave..? CAVE??! Seriously man, I’m still waiting on them to stand up for something. Repeal and replace. Fix the tax law. Produce a proper, fiscally conservative budget. Secure the border. Maintain control of the house and senate. Wipe their own ass without disolving into constant infighting or trying to protect their own interests, or get reelected.
These jokers need to grow a spine and pass a f’king bill (ANY bill…) they have been making promises about for the last 18 months.
Honestly, how the f’k can a mound of jello NOT cave, FFS???
The only thing these phuckers are capable of passing is gas. Don’t look about for any help, intelligence nor a due diligent effort from congress critters.
This new potential law just might work better than the law that makes it illegal to own a weapon if you have a dishonorable discharge.
When will these imbeciles understand that the government, particularly our federal government, is inept?
There are still private deals held at gun shows and even online.
Just stand outside of any gun show.
Damn skippy! Outside them doors a lot of hardware is shuffled and the prices right.
But you know something boys and girls…. I don’t need any second amendment to ensure my God given right to exist and protect what’s mine. Phuck these heathens. I’ll take their life AND their scalp if they rise up against me… and be better for it.
seriously, get the f’k off the “gun show loophole” bs.
Its called a private sale. Its perfectly legal. And it shold be.
USAF inept?
Well, we all know that the Gov’t goal is to take all of our damn guns away from us. These shootings sure seem to be so damn convenient in a timing respect. I have NO intention of giving up any of my god damned firearms. The US Constitution (2nd Amendment) guarantees me the right to own and possess firearms, up to and including semi automatic rifles. The thing is, you could ban ALL guns under the sun and people would still find all kinds of creative ways to continue killing others.
It actually gives us the right to own anything, up to and including anything the government has. The purpose of the 2nd Amendment is to make it possible for us to keep a tyrannical government in check. We can’t do it if we’re outgunned.
No skippy God gave us those rights not the dictators in the govt. We merely gave them the limited authority to PROTECT those God given rights.
Gun confiscation will only add to the violence. Once the public is disarmed, wealth can be plundered more easily.
Show me one time. ONE TIME. Where the public has stood up and driven off the professional politicians, taken back their country, and instituted laws preventing the return of professional politicians.
And don’t bring up the Colonials and the British. I am talking about in modern history. The British are back, with the Piers Morgans demanding Americans give up their constitutional rights. With the John Olivers and their British superiority and fake news. And , of course, and Kate Uptons marring our professional baseball players.

August, 1946. The so-called “battle of athens”.

I read it. Not quite the happy ending.
I quote:
“On January 4, 1947, four of the five leaders of the GI Non-Partisan League declared in an open letter: “We abolished one machine only to replace it with another and more powerful one in the making.”[1] The League failed to establish itself permanently and traditional political parties soon returned to power.[2]”
“Here’s the new boss. Same as the old boss.” I am not encouraged.
good example.
Honorable mention:

Second Honorable mention out of respect for the dead, especially women and children.
Waco . stand up job, but failure of mission.
We brothers in arms and oath takers will NEVER give up our guns. I am over 50 and lived a good life, I have thought long and hard and came to the conclusion that if I need to fight and die it is worth the price to maintain our Republic.
It is our inherit God given right to rule and amass greater fortunes while we rule with a false flag iron fist. You don’t need self defense protection. We’ve got you covered from all sides and every possible angle with nothing left to chance.
What’s really frustrating to me is that we already have laws/ways to cull out certain people from purchasing guns……..and they don’t enforce these laws or check to make sure they are working correctly. So every time some kook gets a hold of a gun, the guv decides to take guns away from all of us because the guv is incompetent.
its not because they are incompetent, its because they are indifferent.
The only reason gun laws are pushed on us is feel-good reelection bullshit.
At no point to they care about violence in general or they would uphold the current law, prosecute violent criminals. Chicago- case in point.
They Are Coming For Your Guns: Democrats Introduce Bill To Ban ‘Assault’ Weapons
You can try like hell b1tch’s, but who do you have in mind that is brave/stupid enough to make the rounds of collecting these from each household?
Even if successful passing such a legislation, the next on the chopping block will be – handguns, shotguns, knives, and baseball bats. After all, most people die from those types of items than anything else.
Nobody nor any Government has the right to tell who and who cannot defend themselves with “said” items.
The 2nd Amendment clearly states – “shall not be infringed”
This is a friendly reminder for Government that you cannot change or alter this Amendment by Constitutional Rule. Previous an current administrations keep trying to get around it, only because they don’t abide nor follow the Constitutional Laws that have been put into place.
Know what I say? … that’s right … Fuck ’em!
The 2nd Amendment is there to protect us from Government.
Gun ownership is not a “god given right”.
It is a basic Human Right – and regardless where a person lives in this world – everybody should be able to have the same.
GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH… they can’t kill off all 300,000,000 of us!
Surely she remembers how many Dems lost their seats when they did this last time. I suspect this is a money raising attempt by both sides for the 2018 elections.
Imagine if hillary was pres, or the next hillary, or bill, or bo. It will happen sooner or later. Probably far worse. Imagine America after Trump, which may be closer than we think as we see the libtard backlash. I can see demonrats going door to door. I have a lot of trouble seeing Americans standing up to it, as we have become a country that has allowed everything it was supposd to be against. A bunch of rainbow flag fliers!
Leftists’ current tantrums fortell their actions if they feel they have a grip on power they felt during the obutthole regime.
If you think obutthole & co. went for broke…
Marxists and Islamists who infect our government plus the media prostitutes who protect them will gleefully lie, falsify, fabricate, slander, libel, deceive, delude, bribe, and treasonably betray the free citizens of the United States into becoming an unarmed population. Unarmed populations have been treated as slaves and chattel since the dawn of history.
The Second Amendment foes lying about gun control – Firearms are our constitutionally mandated safeguard against tyranny by a powerful federal government.
Only dictators, tyrants, despots, totalitarians, and those who want to control and ultimately to enslave you support gun control.
No matter what any president, senator, congressman, or hard-left mainstream media hookers tell you concerning the statist utopian fantasy of safety and security through further gun control: They are lying. If their lips are moving, they are lying about gun control. These despots truly hate America..
These tyrants hate freedom, liberty, personal responsibility, and private property. But the reality is that our citizens’ ownership of firearms serves as a concrete deterrent against despotism. They are demanding to hold the absolute power of life and death over you and your family. Ask the six million Jews, and the other five million murdered martyrs who perished in the Nazi death camps, how being disarmed by a powerful tyranny ended any chances of fighting back. Ask the murdered martyrs of the Warsaw Ghetto about gun control.
Their single agenda is to control you after you are disarmed. When the people who want to control you hold the absolute power of life and death over your family, you have been enslaved.
Will we stand our ground, maintaining our constitutionally guaranteed Second Amendment rights, fighting those who would enslave us?
Keep in mind that they are importing more democratic voters seeking time at the government tit than we could ever hope to produce here.
Shortly, they will outnumber and outvote us.
Then we get down to brass tacks.
Only dummycrats and rinos are stupid enough to blame law-abiding citizens for the crimes of sociopaths. Those of us that live in socialist republics (democrat run states) like California, Hawaii, and New York need to educate our fellow citizens or move to a free state like Wyoming, Florida, or Arizona. My plans are to take my money to a free state. I hope Californicate secedes from the union – nobody with any sense will try to stop you.
If you are in a free state I recommend you go to backpage_dot_com into the sporting section and buy as many firearms as your wallet permits with no paperwork (In free states) and put them away for a rainy day.
Does anyone feel like they’re living in one of Matt Bracken’s novels? I damn sure feel like it. Had Hillary won, gun confiscation already would’ve been attempted and sparked the 2nd civil war.
The Second Amendments purpose is certainly as a defense against tyranny. “The People” are incorporated in it for a reason. This being said its not the guns but rather what government has the option of doing to an unarmed civilian population verses one that is armed. “IF” arms were ever codified illegal they must be removed from civilian hands before government exercises its future nefarious plans. Guns aren’t freedom, guns protect freedom. Every chairborne ranger states “from my cold dead hands”. Lets save ourselves that bellicose reply for a moment and assume that many, for whatever reason, wife, kids, whatever, do not desire to be caught with a weapon that can (for conversations sake) put you in a hideous prison or death as a penalty for non compliance. Its far better under these circumstances to dump the weapon in the river than surrender it. In the end government will need some measure of sufficient civilian disarmament to proceed with their tyrannical plans. If say 300 million guns a trillion rounds of ammo are thought to be in civilian hands and 5 million guns and 1 billion rounds of ammo are confiscated anyone that can add and subtract can see that step 2 needs to be postponed.
The effect is what the other side thinks not necessarily what really is.
Brave. yes I do. We are all gonna die and that’s a fact. Die standing up with a pile of smoking brass around your feet!
What is Diane going to do when the next psycho buys two 5 gallon gas cans. Fills them with gas. And then proceeds to burn a school down. Outlaw gas cans and gas?
Only purchase private sale, face to face. They’re welcome to “come and take” that one registered firearm, good luck digging up the ones scattered in caches, or the ones that fell off the boat.

Teach your children well…
I see a lot of folks here that are “Old Farts”, myself included. This battle is multi-generational. Look at our schools and the illiterate masses they produce…Yea, there a few exceptions to the rule, but the average high school graduate is not functional. I have a young cousin with a masters degree, and is less well rounded in her general understanding of how the universe works than a post.
So, once we are gone, who will pass on the legacy. All “they” need to do is wait a while, and the new bearers will drop the torch because it’s hot and might hurt someone. With this in mind, all you old farts need to stop bitching and start teaching!
One of the high points in my life was the day my niece turned 18 and I started to “transfer” some of the contents of my safe…We came to a semi auto 22LR. Her response was “What’s with this spray and pray, I want your scoped bolt gun”! It was my dad’s…I miss that gun!
I remember 50 yrs. ago shooting my father’s Tommy gun. One day the Atf came & took it. A week later they brought it back welded tight. People bitched, but there were no revolts.
What will happen 50 yrs. from now when most of us are gone? Now is the time to get rid of this decay that is trying to run our lives before it’s too late. We must make sure the knowledge of our forefathers is not forgotten.

The Democrat party is self destructing, between charges of sexual misconduct, peodophilia, and corruption. They are desperate to appear as though they are doing something besides pure obstruction.
Their attacks on Trump are coming back to haunt them, it seems democrats are the ones that colluded with Russians to manipulate the election, and then through misdirection of congressional and Justice Dept investigations, run an anti-Trump witch hunt. Problem is they are caught actually committing the crimes they falsely accused Trump of committing.
Democrats are struggling to appear relevant, failing that their play book SOP is: distract, distract, distract.
“The Democrat party is self destructing, between charges of sexual misconduct, peodophilia, and corruption.”
Guess what? That is only the LEFT side … wait until the RIGHT side gets investigated for the same things. It’ll just be more names being added to the already cesspool of undesirables that is called Government.

Ban th 2nd amendment simply put is a declaration of war and invalidates your rule…
This is not the power we the people have delegated you…
It is much easier to commit genocide and mass extermination of your enemies, once they have been disarmed, which is the point/goal of gun control laws. Yes, the lefties do hate you and want to murder you. These are very evil people. The Lefties will never settle for any thing less than total disarming of the public. I strongly suspect that many of the recent mass shootings were in fact false flag operations designed to provoke the public into supporting some kind of a gun control bill in the heat of the moment. Naturally the politicians will go along with the mob, as they just have to been seen as doing something.
First off…the Communist Dictators want to burn the Constitution and have
done so, in their minds. Instead the Commies should be burned at the stake
on the White House lawn. (….er that’s pretty harsh, true, but that is what they
would (will) do to us if they could (can) get away with it.)
Remember guys, if there are 800 million guns out there only about 400 million
of them are on our side.
Those thugs only need to get rid of our 400 milion…..
because we all know commies, NWO, foreigners, gimme-daters, criminals,
gangsters, and Obuttholes remark, “My army, will be bigger than your army”.
Silly me, I was thinking “Mooslime brotherhoods”. But by his last year in office,
I realized he also meant the whole damn D.C Swamp…and then some.
We already know they excel at cheating, lying and killing.
They have no allegiance to us or this country.
To heck with the mindless Dems…..we are not bending to ur worthless requests to take ANY weapons from the law abiding citizens PERIOD!
Mac Slavo. I am calling you out. You publish articles like this and not once have you ever said how we stop this nonsense.
This is irresponsible journalism. The kind that made people turn their backs on MSM. Be part of the solution, Mac; not part of the problem.
Might have known– that old WITCH LADY is back!! ;( Can someone hang the Frankenstein lady??!!
the blame: see below
IN THE OLD DAYS… anyone who tried to take the guns would be hung.
ITS NOT A MATTER OF LEFT OR RIGHT!! that’s how they got us by the balls! (or, for us females, by the boobs)…
IT DOESN’T MATTER WHO WE VOTE FOR!!! they (the one percent) want our guns and they are the ones in power… they want to disarm us… the politicians are all just puppets! think about it… sooner or later a democrat will become president and push for gun control. sooner or later a republican will be president and they will want to eliminate social security/any kind of protections for the people…. Its ALL A GAME!!! AND ITS RIGGED!!!!!
THESE ARE THE 2 MAIN PROBLEMS WE FACE:
1)abrupt climate change is going to destroy us in the near future (darkness and death)– no power grid, like what happened recently in PUERTO RICO, Barbados and Dominica.. these areas were LEVELED!!!! Barely habitable!! (And Mexico!! And out West–1/3 of the US!!). Power grids down. Every thing destroyed by fire, water and wind….
2) An extremely corrupt government ruled by the 1%, who wants to take our guns, have one world government. They committed near-genocide against native Americans, destroyed 7 countries recently, have plans to destroy China and bomb Russia with nukes. THEY DON’T CARE ABOUT HUMAN LIFE!!!!

This bill will not pass, But it is an opening salvo in the final push to take our weapons, I am 58, in 20 years the kids coming up behind me will bend over and take it straight up the ass, and heh, who can blame them OUR generation showed them how it was done. We have allowed these people to operate with impunity and destroy most of our rights, why should we expect the younger generation to grow spines when we have none.
@Bigbluedrew
Exactly.
just look at how much illegal activity and how it’s a new scandal every week in DC with those people and they want you disarmed
Introducing such obviously unconstitutional legislation is a violation of their Oaths of Office. (See article 6, clause 3, US Constitution) As a matter of fact their failure to ensure that all able bodied folks are organized and armed is a violation of the US Constitution. (See article 1, section 8, clause 16) Furthermore, restricting the weaponry available to the people who are the Militia of the Several States* to single shot rifles when they have a constitutional duty to repel invasions, suppress insurrections and execute the laws of the Union (See article 1, section 8, clause 15) could very well be considered treason.
This type of behavior and dismissive attitude toward the Supreme Law of the Land is only possible and accepted because the people are ignorant of the Constitution and our founding principles.
*(1776 Virginia Declaration of Rights, SEC. 13. That a well-regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the proper, natural, and safe defense of a free state; that standing armies, in time of peace, should be avoided as dangerous to liberty; and that in all cases the military should be under strict subordination to, and governed by, the civil power)
This MY permit and AUTHORITY………
“No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government”
Thomas Jefferson, 1 Thomas Jefferson Papers, 334
Dems don’t want a ban on murder. Would take away their supposed justification for gun control. They revel in mass murder. Blame guns for people being run over by trucks.
