Or bunt, hunt, or runt?

I spoke to a salesman at a LGS tonight and he said there was so many background checks today to the point that the system quit accepting anymore applications. Lots of people are getting scared again about AWB talk.

They won't take my guns without a fight. I really hope millions of my fellow Americans share the same sentiment. If the government ever resorts to actually disarming the citizens I have no desire to live in a world like that. I would rather go out on a blaze of glory as a patriot.[/quote]

Nope. They love rotten chicken. I figure they'll gobble her right up.

Just like Feinstein? Maybe it wouldn't be such a good idea after all. They'd probably just accept her as one of their own.

That's ok. A gator will eat a gator.

[Guest HvyMtl]

Um. Go look at her track record, does she not pop this littel jewel out, like most every Congressional session?

She is awful. Yet, still gets relected. So, I think she does this to play up for her constituents. Seems to keep getting her elected.

[/quote]HvyMtl, they don't care what she spits out in Cali. That's why she always does. It's where she's from.

[Guest HvyMtl]

I do think they care what she spits out in Cali, as I believe this is a direct response to the voters who keep voting her back in. Difference of opinion? Perhaps. But, if she kept spewing forth stuff her constituents did not want, would she still get re-elected over and over again? Doubtful.

Oh, they want it

[Guest 6.8 AR]

I guess I didn't say it right. Her constituents want everything she spits out. That's one of them.

[Guest fauklin]

Her constituents don't make up the whole of the United States. She needs to learn that.

[Guest 6.8 AR]

The message has to start somewhere,
from someone, and she's the one, this
time. I'm confident it will come from other libs, soon.

Interesting links above.

Some thoughts I've been mulling over recently concerning possible bans, the other post regarding confiscation, etc...

Since the election (or, since the first election, it could be argued) there has been an enormous run on guns of all types and calibers, as well as the ammo that feeds them. Sales have been brisk, and are moreso since the recent election.

[i]A lot[/i] of people are buying guns- and a large number of them are these types of weapons that would be banned- [i]precisely[/i] out of the concern that there [i]will[/i] be some type of restriction / ban coming from DC in the near future.

I think that, in many respects, the current administration has achieved in making this an even more heavily armed nation that it already was, though I'm sure that was not their intent.

That said, if a ban comes down, at least in the extreme form the Dems would like for it to read-
I'm curious as to how many people- recent purchasers [u]or[/u] long time owners- would actually surrender their weapons. I guess I have an internal struggle with the 'no grandfathering' clause. Again, a lot of people bought these guns/weapons for this very reason.

Some would surrender them, of course, but I would be inclined to believe that an enormous amount (or maybe 'a large number' would be a better way to say it) of owners would not- at least, not voluntarily.

One example- some are owned as a result of private party sales. The feds don't have a way to know how many, or where they might be. The flip side of that is, especially in states like ours, you can sell a gun you own in a private party sale, and not be required by law to report it or document it. So for all those who have bought one and have the purchase recorded by an FFL or a LGS, who's to say it hasn't been sold by the purchaser?

Even if there were a threat of imprisonment for those who didnt surrender their weapons, I'm pretty sure our correctional facilities are already stretched to the max, and would not be able to accomodate 1 million (or wayyy more) fresh arrivals, statewide or nationally.

Barring a thorough house-to-house search of every residence in the country by military, law enforcement, or the UN, if you wish...
I don't think there would be a 'do-able' way for a thorough accounting to take place. No one has the resources to do a complete grid search of the US and all the land and property therein.

Add to that that even if something like that began to occur, word of such activity would probably spread like wildfire, leading to 1) massive hiding of property by owners, or 2) possibly something more confrontational on a widespread basis.

Not to mention the financial effect all this would have on businesses nationwide, but that's a whole different story....

I'm not sure how high my tin foil hat goes when it comes to a widespread 'seizure' for folks who are owners, but these are some thoughts I've been pondering since the topic is high on the minds of 2A people accross the country.

Just throwing some thoughts out there- Maybe I'm totally off base. Edited November 26, 2012 by superduty

They will just try to make it illegal to possess them. I don't think they'll pull it off. It will make all the Libtards happy that they tried.

Should they ever outlaw a specific type of weapon with no Grandfather clause, it wouldn’t be an issue of you having to explain where it went; no one would care. The issue would be when you are found to be in possession.

Many of us here have thousands of dollars (some more) in weapons that would be banned. I think the “No Grandfather” discussion is to try to scare everyone into thinking they may lose all the money they have in these guns and get them to accept something that allows them to keep their arms but bans future sales.

The states need to step-up. Tennessee passed the Tennessee Firearms Freedom Act, but it hasn’t been tried yet. I don’t think the Feds or the SCOTUS wants to get into a “States Rights” pizzing match. It would be ironic that the very thing that rendered the 2nd amendment pretty much useless for the individual may help everyone keep their guns.

Yup. Washington is out of control. We do have the 10th amendment. Tennessee citizens will not put up with these idiots. Hey Corker, Get with the program. Stop being a Obama kiss a$$.
I think the American public have had enough of these temporary politicians.

Yeah, but they keep voting for them.. most of them blindly according to party affiliation, how the canidate looks, how much they promise to give them or how smoothly he or she lies to them without a care about their actual voting history. It's too much trouble for most to look up a canidates history rather than just believe what they say, what they are told about them or to just assume since they have a (R) after their name that they are pro 2nd.
