2024 VA SB203 was a bill to increase the mandatory minimum sentence from 5 years to 10 for people convicted of committing violent crimes. It only applies to repeat offenders who use firearms to commit these violent acts.

Moms Demand Action and Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence opposed it during hearings.

Why?

Because gun control groups are not about ensuring public safety. They are about violating people’s civil rights.

They want to be able to put people in prison for 5-10 years for owning an 11-round pistol magazine, or putting a pistol grip on a semiautomatic rifle, but not for repeated violent firearm offenses.

It's beyond hilarious. These are the same idiots who wring their hands about the Supreme Court ruling that you can't use an ex-parte domestic violence restraining order to deny gun rights to a guy who committed multiple violent felonies with a firearm (instead of prosecuting and convicting him of those same felonies, to the same end).

I am just waiting for the usual suspects to drive by and try to explain.

They were right about one thing: certainty of punishment is a big factor.....and they're the ones making it almost certain that there IS no real punishment for violent crimes.

...for reasons only known to you and conspiracy theorists who think the CIA shot JFK and Stanley Kubrick directed the Moon Landings from a sound stage in Area 51.

Says the guy who wants to get rid of the 1A, 2A, 4A, 5A, 14A, most of the rest of the Constitution and place opponents in “well administered” concentration camps.

So you really can't explain the motivation of gun control, other than some warped idea in your mind that supporters of gun control just want to violate your rights
Just because it's such fun huh ?

Supporters of gun control want the government to have a monopoly on power. It is as simple as that. They believe that they are in the right and everyone else should have to live by their values.

Because supporters want to utsher in some socialist dictatorship
What else do you think the motivation of the gun control lobby is ?

Well, as the video proves, it sure as hell is not public safety.
 
Just that you cannot fathom what the motivation is
Because to you, the gun control lobby exists merely to spoil your day....
But you have repeatedly told us that gun control is about public safety. Is it or is it not?

And the gun control lobby exists to remove people’s civil rights, as you have repeatedly stated.

The people who own semiautomatic rifles with pistol grips are viewed as being political enemies, even disregarding the gun control question. Therefore, harassing regulations are directed at them.

You might get the line about it all being insignificant until the 2nd is repealed and his idea of banning everything is put in place.
 
MAGAs can **** off with this shit after what they've done to women's values, and their reproductive rights. The MAGAS hands are shoved up into our crotch's, and they have the nerve to cry about any gun control? GMAFB!

Whereas you have struggled to come up with a motivation.
Post #8. Reading is fundamental.

So, no response about the video, just a hysterical screed about abortion.

If you can’t address the topic, no need to post in the thread.

Thank you.

I'll just reiterate: The people who own semiautomatic rifles with pistol grips are viewed as being political enemies, even disregarding the gun control question. Therefore, harassing regulations are directed at them.

When you don't have an argument about something, blame it on "MAGAs."
 
So in that post you detail the motivation of the gun control lobby ?
Just to spoil gun owners' day ?
I think not.
Highlighted for your education.

Don't you want us all to live by your definition of hate speech and gun control?

What did you "highlight" ?

Stay on topic

You've yet to explain the motivation of the gun control lobby
So far all you've been able to come up with is that they want the state to have a monopoly on violence. For not apparant reason.

From the guy who often brags about the virtual monopoly on violence the UK state maintains...
