First, in New York City – there is an article in the mainstream media (CBS) about the police wondering IF they will be confiscating firearms from law-abiding citizens and how to go about doing it…
Now, the 2nd Amendment has been declared to apply to the states as well as the federal government (see the McDonald decision), and the 2nd “shall not be infringed”. But here they are, openly and actively talking about doing EXACTLY what the British did those relatively few years ago, that caused the shooting war to begin in Lexington and Concord.
And we have Diane F at it again, revealing more of her plans.
She wants us to have to register all of our existing “evil” firearms, I would assume she wants the $200 tax stamp for each, and they want to prohibit transfers,ban normal magazines, etc.
I again call upon our political “leaders” to look at the history of this nation, and of the world.
Germany did this in the 1930’s. Within 10 years, the world was in a very bad situation – especially the disarmed Jews.
Other nations have done this. It does NOT accomplish the stated “goals”, but accomplishes things that are of a much darker agenda.
The British tried to do this a bit over 200 years ago. It didn’t work out so well for them.
Turn away from this self-destructive course you are on. Leave the 2nd Amendment alone. Admit that the Constitution is there and that it means what it says. Don’t keep trying to destroy it.
If you persist, well, history tells us what will happen. The cost will be great on both sides, but I’m willing if you force it. I don’t want that, and ask that you back off now, before this goes to the point of no return.
