This was a good article. And I’m PRO-GUN and CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS. And I also do a lot of studying on the subject as well. and from what I’ve been seeing. The Anti-gun people/groups feel that NO ONE NEEDS A FIREARM FOR ANY REASON NO MATTER WHAT IT MIGHT BE. And they also don’t seem to understand the criminals will ALWAYS find a way to have a gun to do their dirty deeds. And the only thing that these gun control laws will do is to keep LAW ABIDING CITIZENS from being able to defend themselves because they obey the law whereas criminals don’t.
Beto IS going for the touchdown and attempting to throw the long bomb with his stance on coming to get our rifles and handguns with more than 10rd capacity……
The rest of the Democratic team is attempting to run a flea flicker touchdown play with these red-flag laws and the scope they’re attempting to enforce them at.
It also depends on where you live. In some places it’s like the 20 yardline strict, in others, the 40 yardline or closer relaxed. Nationally, I think around the 35 yardline strict.
There are too many out there that want government to take care of them. These people don’t realize what they give up to have that. Which is simply freedom.
The “watering down” of the 2A is just part of an agenda to enable government more control of people’s lives.
This was a hard question to answer. I live in a Constitutional Carry state. There are very few restrictions here in NH. But when put it in a national context and think of states like California, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York, the equation changes. But notwithstanding those overzealous states, more and more states are passing Constitutional Carry laws. So when it comes to the “gun grabbers”, I’m not losing any sleep over their rhetoric just yet. Let’s just say I’m on Condition Yellow.
Michigan heard testimony for constitutional carry Tuesday. It won’t pass with our governor. But we keep trying. We’re honestly pretty close to having enough votes to override a veto. It sure would be nice!
I’ll say we are about the 15 yard line, towards tyranny. I live in Illinois, where we have tons of stupid regulations, that do nothing to stop criminals. I really believe, we are one wrong election away from some of our worst nightmares, as far as our freedoms go.
Too many in our society don’t want to be self reliant. They want the government to take care of them. You give up freedom for safety, you have neither.
@45IPAC, I firmly agree with you. If the Socialists make any headway in this next election, the fight to defend 2A will become much harder. I am not optomistic.
I wasn’t clear enough, sorry about that. Yes, I lived through then and a couple more decades. I been carrying since 1961. Never considered getting anything other than a game hunting license, drivers license, vehicle license plate. Always thought the Constitution was like a roofer’s union card, covers everything. Been stopped many times, some time pistol found, some time I tell the cop what I got, some time not, never a problem. No arrest, no ticket to appear (for weapon charge). Few years ago, I conceded and got a ccl from my current state. Originally from Chicago. Long time ago. Now back to the point. When the first infringement occurred and passed SCOTUS, precedent was set, game over. Want to get our rightful rights back? Run that very first infringement back through SCOTUS and get a different out come, all the rest of the bogus regulations fall apart. Thank for me clarify my post.
