How Mass Gun Confiscation Would Work

Ugh, thanks. What's the point in believing the govt cant track people? It's bs.
Bingo. And when a ffl dealer goes out of business they must send their 4473s to the atf.
These folks dont realize how easy it would be to confiscate guns.
 
Why should I or anyone be a prisoner ?
Because you don't want to be in public with gun owners exercising their rights. As long as you're willing to accept the rights of other people then join society, if not stay at home your choice.
 
The will of the People wants extended background checks...
Do you even know what's wrong with the current backround check system, to then think you know the solution?
 
Because:

1. You don't need to
2. You'd be a far greater danger to other people than you'd be a help
I dont need to? That's your opinion. It's my opinion that carrying a firearm gives me an equalizer against a criminal with a firearm. And my objective isn't to "help" other people. My main concern is myself and my family who may be with me. Getting involved in a third party situation isn't recommended in CCW training or by lawyers.

1: you're afraid to because of what people might think if they found out.
2: you're afraid you'd be a danger to others and yourself.
 
Why should I or anyone be a prisoner ?
You and others make your property gun free zones and we will stay away. That is the we that are law abiding.
And in return you don't tell us what we can and can't do.
 
How, it just restricts the right to carry to private property




Yes you would be "bearing" and where else would you "keep" ?




I wouldn't restrict people's rights at all - they would still be able to bear and keep - just only on private property (with the property's owner's permission of course if it isn't yours)

And a court would have to decide if it was "constitutional"

It wouldn't destroy anyone's rights, as they could still keep and bear arms

Restricting the 1st Amendment to private property wouldn't really work would it ?
Besides free speech is not a physical item that you carry around with you.
Disingenuous bullshit aside, do you really think the right to bear isn't being restricted? Because I mean deliberately trolling isn't at all clever.
 
I talked to two cops in the small Florida town I recently moved from. Both had gun collections and both said they had enough trouble taking guns away from the bad guys. They had absolutely no interest in confiscating firearms from honest people. The Florida county I moved to is a gun sanctuary. local law enforcement will not confiscate banned firearms nor would they help the Feds, There is a growing number of these counties in Florida.
 
Because you don't want to be in public with gun owners exercising their rights. As long as you're willing to accept the rights of other people then join society, if not stay at home your choice.

I want gun owners exercising their rights only on private property.

Why would a gun owner want to exercise bearing arms elsewhere - except for self gratification and the intimidation of others ?
 
I dont need to?

No

That's your opinion.

Yes


It's my opinion that carrying a firearm gives me an equalizer against a criminal with a firearm....

No, it's just your emotional need to feel "big"
A potential threat against you is how you justify it to yourself


And my objective isn't to "help" other people.

I would never think for a second that it was


My main concern is myself and my family who may be with me. Getting involved in a third party situation isn't recommended in CCW training or by lawyers.

Nope, it's so you can inflate your self image
You probably have a 4x4 V8 truck for the same reason - or want one.
 
1: you're afraid to because of what people might think if they found out.
2: you're afraid you'd be a danger to others and yourself.

1. And they'd be right to think it
2. I would, just like anyone who carries a gun is

You and others make your property gun free zones and we will stay away. That is the we that are law abiding.
And in return you don't tell us what we can and can't do.

So no-one has any business passing a law or tax that requires you to conform to ?
 
Disingenuous bullshit aside, do you really think the right to bear isn't being restricted? Because I mean deliberately trolling isn't at all clever.

Someone once said that if you can go anywhere in the world, except access to one field, are you really free ?

So yes, I suppose that and gun control is a restriction to some degree...and you know what, that's not a bad thing.

You do not have to show a need to exercise a right, You also can’t deny someone a right simply because it’s what you want. If you you are unwilling to recognize and accept the rights people have and choose to exercise in public spaces, then stay on your private property where you can control the rights you disagree with. It’s so easy even a Rich can do it.

Only a dictatorial mind could think so.

How can you justify a right if there's no need for it ?

Yes you can deny that right - if the majority of the people don't want it, nay - actively oppose it

However, exercising your rights on public property hurts no-one (unless maybe the people on that property also).

Best Freudian slip ever and a moment of accidental honest on your part.

If you’re unable to understand that showing a need is not a requirement to exercise a right and can’t agree on that simple concept of what having a right means and how it works, then there is no need to communicate any more because we have no common ground.

*Private property.
 
Like those in the UK, Canada, Australia, Japan...pretty much every country on Earth.

Good luck rewriting the constitution. What you are proposing wouldn't end the way you think it would.
 
So you accept the countries that I alluded to, aren't full of "dictatorial minds" ?

Nah, liberals are all about control, they just aren't open about it, like you.
 
This article has it all wrong. They would run a program exactly like the banned machineguns: terminate all transfers to individuals with possible grandfathering of existing guns with registration, all other forms of civilian possession being illegal. And then, nothing. Simply wait for existing gun owners to die of old age and existing guns to wear out or rust.
Existing gun owners will no doubt will their guns to their descendants. Considering the fact that guns can last many lifetimes this decrease in guns will take a long long time.
 
Existing gun owners will no doubt will their guns to their descendants.
I literally just said, "terminate all transfers to individuals". Willing a gun to a descendant is a transfer.
 
Nah, liberals are all about control, they just aren't open about it, like you.

Do you not know what "liberal" means ?

It means a LACK of regulation
