Quoted: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. One point of the article is that we must hold EVERY politician's feet to the fire regarding their voting record and what they do while in office NOT JUST HANG ON EVERY WORD THEY UTTER. Judge appointments??? Gorsuch is fine with NFA restrictions and does not feel that they infringe on the 2A and Kavanaugh would rather rule based on precedent than on Founder's intent. But, maybe that's fine with you. Obviously, you commented without reading the entire article or you are OK with this. Let me ask you something since you " fucking A right I will vote for Trump again." Have you EVER written to the Trump campaign and explained why you are dissatisfied with Trump's support for gun control? Yes or no. If you have not, what was the reason? A) Laziness, B) you agree with: red flag laws, bump stock bans, possible suppressor bans, under 21 bans, states passing gun control without any comments from the WH, anti-gun attorney general appointment, etc. C) you are the team player and support the team at any cost D) Busy shooting guns in Alaska View Quote You ask if I have contacted this admin...of course, many many times about everything from Iran, to liberals, to the 2A and corruption, to tariffs and the border... often daily for weeks at a time.. I have to wonder how many of you never_trumpers have actually penned letters to this admin? I also am missing the thread started by all the never_trumpers on organizing, funding, and securing a better candidate to run in 2020 after the 2016 elections..only thing I have seen is daily threads attacking any and all that back this admin... You want better than Trump, means you need to come up with better than Trump, that all voters will vote for, otherwise, you are just going to be even more disappointed.... |

Unless you're a gun owner who either supports gun control or doesn't actually care about it. Then, I guess Trump's your man. |

DJT has been the assault on Gun Rights. He’s lied to financial conservatives. Once you look at the Big Picture, you’ll wish for Pence in ‘20.

Ill look at his actions versus anything he says...so far its been pretty rough.
Trump has said multiple times that "the Second Amendment is Safe". Trump ran on "The 8 Year War on the Second Amendment is Over" all 2017, he also said "As your president I will never ever infringe on your Right to Bear Arms". He also 'Promised" that he would pass National Carry Reciprocity and yet he has passed more Firearm Legislation than Obama did in his 8 years and hasn't passed a single "Pro-Gun" Bill. See all of this and more here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_CQeoG5mcI Gun Confiscation Orders (Red Flag Laws) and Full Gun Registry (Universal Background Checks) which Trump has openly supported have recently been proposed. Trump told Feinstein that "He will get the votes and get it passed" when discussing what would go into her Assault Weapons Ban during the same hearing he said "Take the Guns First, then Due Process" when creating the Red Flag Laws. His newly appointed AG has stated his Top Priority is Gun Confiscation, he also supported the Brady Bill and Clinton's Assault Weapons Ban and was in charge during the slaughter of Ruby Ridge and acts deceitful when discussing it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmYISZwCK9g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZsm9rmb-8o (1:00:00 Mark) Trump's ATF Pick Belie is just as "Pro-Gun" as William Barr. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2019/05/ttag-contributor/trumps-atf-director-nominee-on-the-record-for-protecting-2a-rights/#comments https://www.firearmsnews.com/editorial/fop-actions-of-trumps-atf-pick-belie-reverence-for-2nd-amendment-claim/361026 Trump just passed the Bumpstock Ban that allows the ATF to redefine "Fire rate" which will allow any semi-automatic to be considered a "Machine gun". Every Semi-Auto is now on the plate for banning in the near future as the ATF now has been given the power to re-class any of them as "Machine Guns", if your firearm is semi-auto and is made after May 1986' then it has the possibility of being banned. This bill also gave way to the arbitrary banning of parts, accessories, and attachments for any reason. So expect that when a Democrat as power of a Town, City, State, or the Country - all your Semi-Auto's are now sitting on the chopping Block thanks to this legislation riding through...that was Backed both by the NRA and Trump. This ban sets precedent that a ban can be placed on a object arbitrarily by a single branch of Government (Executive in this case) using the ATF to loosely define and outline the reason for the ban. This is unconstitutional and shouldnt stand...but if it does this will lead to a world of hurt in multiple ways from taxes, imports, business, motor vehicles and more...dont be blinded by Trump, pretend it was Hillary instead and Hillary did this, there would be real public outrage. Trump pushed this through, with support from the NRA who actually proposed this ban. "I will be strongly pushing Comprehensive Background Checks with an emphasis on Mental Health. Raise age to 21 and end sale of Bump Stocks! Congress is in a mood to finally do something on this issue - I hope!" — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 22, 2018 "I'd like to think about it. I mean nobody's talking about silencers very much. I did talk about the bump stock and we had it banned and we're looking at that. I'm going to seriously look at it. I don't love the idea of it" - DJT 2019 "Even if [the plaintiff] were entitled to Second Amendment protection, his challenge would be baseless: [8 U.S.C] section 922(g) furthers the government's compelling interest in keeping firearms out of the hands of individuals who are likely to use the irresponsibly. Empirical evidence supports the conclusion that those previously convicted of drunk driving are significantly more likely to abuse alcohol and commit acts of violence. And these drunk drivers are significantly more likely than individuals without alcohol-related convictions to be arrested for crimes involving violence and/or misuse of firearms." - Trump Administration Brief to 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals (PA, NJ, DE, VI) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwqWATBAg-a/ The "Empirical Evidence" section is a false claim being propagated by "fake pro-gun" organizations right now and it seems Trump has fallen for it hook, line, and sinker. So if you have ever gotten a DUI then you may not have your "entitled" Constitutional Rights anymore if the bill he is putting together passes...or he decides to force it through with executive order once again (Bumpstock Ban)...People make horrible choices at young ages, I, myself have a DUI from when I was young and stupid and I thank god for it as that DUI saved my life - I havent had a drink since then and I've cleaned up my life. Without that DUI I would have continued to drink and abuse drugs and I most likely would have died by now. Now because I have that DUI, it means I will lose my Second Amendment Rights even though I have cleaned up and started over. All I know is Im so happy that "the war on the Second Amendment is Over".... Just imagine if they do write that up as a law, this is a slippery slope...not only would innocent people that have been convicted for false positives lose their rights but people in states where the "legal limit" is less than .03 would be losing them for barely being "impaired" while driving. There would be millions of people affected by this for stupid decisions while they were young, like myself. The precedent set would later lead to people that smoke, no fly lists, trespassing violations, misdemeanors/ect. National Red Flag Laws (Gun Confiscation/Destruction of Due Process) and Universal Background Checks (Full Gun Restoration + Owner Databases)....both Unconstitutional. The Red Flag Laws being passed state to state destroy Due Process and they dont even need evidence or proof to roll out a call to confiscate firearms, anyone in your "family" (soon will be extended to co-workers) and take your civil rights in the middle of the night now - which has resulted in deaths already. Those who are victims of these Red Flag Calls loose their rights and need to fight in a special court to get them back, which may take years and the costs are staggering ($10,000+). The Assault Weapons Ban of 2019 will essentially leave everyone with Pump Shotguns, Muzzle Loaders and Revolvers, Bolt Action Rifles but cannot hold more than 10 rounds, cant have detachable magazines or threaded barrels or pistol grips. It also bans pistols that are over 50 ounces and pistol braces for the injured/physically disabled. It will also place Background checks for everything, no private sales, or homemade firearms. The thing is, Criminals dont spend thousands of dollars on new firearms, they dont buy high end 3D Printers or CNC Machines to machine/print out AR lowers, they dont spend hours and hundreds of dollars building their own guns, they dont spend $400 on bumpstocks and binary triggers...that's what Firearm Enthusiasts do. The Second Amendment protects the First and with more and more infringements that target the average gun owner and not criminals it only points out that the Government is out for control over its population and not its best interest. All proposals for any action against the Second Amendment should be seen as an act of war on the Citizenry, Government infringing on the only insurance policy against Government is a conflict of interest and anyone doing so should be convicted of sedition. Who cares who gets elected, Im sick of hearing "If not Trump who else", why does that even matter? Your voting to lose your rights slowly or quickly, you are STILL LOSING regardless. We need real change and these puppets and populists arent going to help us. I have repeatedly asked these large youtubers to rally their subs and get those subs to rally their friends. All that's needed to make real change is: Organized Armed Marches Organize Bank Runs Mass Peaceful Non-Compliance with Unconstitutional Law Stop Paying Taxes in Mass Thats it, nothing more than some walking and choosing not to follow directions or contribute money...that's it. Even if just 10% of the population did this we would see the changes we want overnight. |

And these drunk drivers are significantly more likely than individuals without alcohol-related convictions to be arrested for crimes involving violence and/or misuse of firearms." - Trump Administration Brief to 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals (PA, NJ, DE, VI) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwqWATBAg-a/ The "Empirical Evidence" section is a false claim being propagated by "fake pro-gun" organizations right now and it seems Trump has fallen for it hook, line, and sinker. So if you have ever gotten a DUI then you may not have your "entitled" Constitutional Rights anymore if the bill he is putting together passes...or he decides to force it through with executive order once again (Bumpstock Ban)...People make horrible choices at young ages, I, myself have a DUI from when I was young and stupid and I thank god for it as that DUI saved my life - I havent had a drink since then and I've cleaned up my life. Without that DUI I would have continued to drink and abuse drugs and I most likely would have died by now. Now because I have that DUI, it means I will lose my Second Amendment Rights even though I have cleaned up and started over. All I know is Im so happy that "the war on the Second Amendment is Over".... Just imagine if they do write that up as a law, this is a slippery slope...not only would innocent people that have been convicted for false positives lose their rights but people in states where the "legal limit" is less than .03 would be losing them for barely being "impaired" while driving. There would be millions of people affected by this for stupid decisions while they were young, like myself. The precedent set would later lead to people that smoke, no fly lists, trespassing violations, misdemeanors/ect. National Red Flag Laws (Gun Confiscation/Destruction of Due Process) and Universal Background Checks (Full Gun Restoration + Owner Databases)....both Unconstitutional. The Red Flag Laws being passed state to state destroy Due Process and they dont even need evidence or proof to roll out a call to confiscate firearms, anyone in your "family" (soon will be extended to co-workers) and take your civil rights in the middle of the night now - which has resulted in deaths already. Those who are victims of these Red Flag Calls loose their rights and need to fight in a special court to get them back, which may take years and the costs are staggering ($10,000+). The Assault Weapons Ban of 2019 will essentially leave everyone with Pump Shotguns, Muzzle Loaders and Revolvers, Bolt Action Rifles but cannot hold more than 10 rounds, cant have detachable magazines or threaded barrels or pistol grips. It also bans pistols that are over 50 ounces and pistol braces for the injured/physically disabled. It will also place Background checks for everything, no private sales, or homemade firearms. The thing is, Criminals dont spend thousands of dollars on new firearms, they dont buy high end 3D Printers or CNC Machines to machine/print out AR lowers, they dont spend hours and hundreds of dollars building their own guns, they dont spend $400 on bumpstocks and binary triggers...that's what Firearm Enthusiasts do. The Second Amendment protects the First and with more and more infringements that target the average gun owner and not criminals it only points out that the Government is out for control over its population and not its best interest. All proposals for any action against the Second Amendment should be seen as an act of war on the Citizenry, Government infringing on the only insurance policy against Government is a conflict of interest and anyone doing so should be convicted of sedition. Who cares who gets elected, Im sick of hearing "If not Trump who else", why does that even matter? Your voting to lose your rights slowly or quickly, you are STILL LOSING regardless. We need real change and these puppets and populists arent going to help us. I have repeatedly asked these large youtubers to rally their subs and get those subs to rally their friends. All that's needed to make real change is: Organized Armed Marches Organize Bank Runs Mass Peaceful Non-Compliance with Unconstitutional Law Stop Paying Taxes in Mass Thats it, nothing more than some walking and choosing not to follow directions or contribute money...that's it. Even if just 10% of the population did this we would see the changes we want overnight. View Quote |

Quoted: the jury is still out on Gorsuch and Kavanaugh. Gorsuch is fine with NFA restrictions and does not feel that they infringe on the 2A and Kavanaugh would rather rule based on precedent than on Founder's intent. But, maybe that's fine with you. Obviously, you commented without reading the article. View Quote |
