I wonder if they also have a goal to replace gunpowder with Unicorn farts...Now that'd be noteworthy.
 
Their "big ask" is a federal license to posses a firearm that has required renewal every year....


License- permission granted by the authority having jurisdiction to engage in, participate, or exercise within an activity that is deemed a privilege and not a civil right.

Next stop: "free speech license".... woot!:s0088:

I know they are lying when they want to reduce only gun violence. You can stab or choke the hell out of someone, just as long as you don't use a gun.

I think it was last year in Japan some guy stabbed 19 people in a hospital or assisted living facility. Londoners are still marching to end knife violence. People will be marching until it's, end mean stares violence. US prisons are among the most violent gun/knife free zones on the planet. When someone's give a care meter is at zero **** like say, criminals, I stop listening to people with no solutions.
 
We need TV commercials -- nonpartisan factual information. For example as I sit here thinking about WA's red flag law and the "preponderance of the evidence" standard, I really don't think most people understand that that means a confidence level just a smidge above pure chance.

pre-coffee vision: Judge, attorneys, accused in a traditional courtroom setting. Judge thanks the attorneys for their arguments and the camera swings over to a bailiff standing next to a wheel that is used for gambling purposes, divided into 100 pie slices, 49 of which say guilty and 51 of which say innocent. The balif spins the wheel and as the pointer goes clack clack clack, the defense and prosecution make impassioned comments (not "big money, big money" but something along those lines). The scene fades out as a commentator explains that fundamental human rights should not be put in jeopardy based on a standard no better than a casino game, and that if one right can be subjected to that kind of spin of the wheel, all rights can be.
 
To reinforce what I said above, remember the outrage over a coin flip:


Judges and juries do virtually the same thing every single day in civil matters based on the "preponderance" standard.
 
More hysteria from the petulant & perpetually offended.
"We're, better than you, smarter than you and more special-er too. OBEY US!"
 
Why don't they just ask the bad guys to turn in their guns first? Those numbers would easily fill their stated goals. o_O
 
Whenever these types start saying "It's for the kids!" I like to remind them that there are 3,000 kids killed every single day in the US, by abortion.

I once suggested that the schools be hardened, and armed guards posted there. The response I got was "But that would be so expensive!"

Nuts. Something has gone horribly wrong with people's ability to reason.

This 1/3 confiscation may seem laughable, but Mitch McConnell has said gun control will be "front and center" in September.

Do not underestimate your enemy - even if it's one of our own. Call and email every day.

Gun Talk's Tom Gresham also ran the 1/3 confiscation story:

Tom's advice:
"
Right now, while you are reading this, the gun banners and their friends in the media are hammering members of Congress to "do something." Many of these "which way is the political wind blowing?" elected representatives are only too happy to be seen as "doing something."
In other words, if you, and I, and every gun owner we know, don't take action right now, there is a better than even chance they will pass yet another round of restrictive gun control laws.
Take five or 10 minutes. Call the White House at 202-456-1111 with the simple message: Absolutely NO More Gun Control. Not a "red flag" law. Not a "universal background check. "Nothing.
Then call your two senators. It's only one number, and you just tell the operator what state you are from. 202) 224-3121.
Congress returns from summer recess in a couple of weeks. Hammer those lines. Do it weekly. Don't wait for "them" to do this for you. If each of us devotes a few minutes to this a week, we win.
It's that simple. ~ Tom"
