Here’s my advice to the mighty NRA – you are tremendously misguided if you think the Second Amendment extends to assault weapons, machine guns, bump-stocks, etc. It does not, since it was written during the time of the musket. To all the self-serving weasels (politicians) at every state and federal level: find the courage to ban all assault weapons, and apply the death penalty (with no appeal) to those found guilty of selling such weapons. Then promote the national database for screening ALL applicants for gun ownership, including input from law enforcement agencies, mental health clinics and social work departments. |

"Death penalty to those found guilty of selling (assault weapons)."
Good grief, the next Hitler in the making. We are entering some dangerous times! Pay attention to what is happening in America --- your life may depend upon it!!!! |

AR15 type rifles are not assault weapons. Assault rifles have been tightly controlled since 1934.
I love that these hair brained liberals think that their opinions are correct when they don't even understand what they are talking about. |

Guess he's completely misguided also - since he did not write that diatribe with a quill pen that existed at same time as the musket. Bet he also drove one of those incredibly dangerous autos today that kill 40,000 a year rather than riding his horse . |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
