Again should come as no shock. As soon as people made a point of making this VERY public they were just begging for laws against it. Same with 80% lowers. As they have gotten better and easier to complete it's just begging for laws. Since we see we can not get a majority of gun owners to vote or vote for their own rights of course these things are going to get regulated out of the market. I have been shocked it's taken this long.
 
Just remember, they can't pass a law without the senate or the president's signature and the current senate will shoot this down. I don't know if Trump would veto this or not, but since it won't pass the senate, that's a moot point. We're safe, for now. But make no mistake, this is just an introduction to what they plan to do when they get the majority back in the house and senate as well as the presidency. It's a matter of time. Since voters are willing to give them that majority again at some point, we can know what to expect.

The next 2 years will likely see a number of measures proposed like this. It's meant to stir up their base in preparation for the 2020 election. It's going to be a big fight, perhaps bigger than 2016.
 
I musta missed the stories of the percentage of shootings committed by the normally law abiding people using kit guns, home built 80% lowers and the like? Seems like these politicians just roll out anything they can think of to placate gun haters. What ever new restriction the DEMOCRATS come up with doesn't even need to help an actual problem! Then I bet they all sit around and pat each other on the back for doing such a good job. What a damned smoke screen to covering up the real problems, that they refuse to address.
 
They say they want a Revolution....
As far as most folks in the millennial age group are concerned, the revolution they want is to be retired before they ever really have to worry about work.
I had an employee that I had tried unsuccessfully to convince that to get a job in a chosen field you need a degree and experience.
For example:
Say a fella starts as a lot guy at an HVAC installation house. Studies and works his way up (earning a degree or furthering education along the way) over the course of, let's say a decade. Owner/manager sees this, recognizes the work put in and knowledge owned, puts said fella in charge when he retires.
This is how it should work, but, according to most folks in my age group, if you have a degree in HVAC installation and say, a semester or two of business management, you should be able to show up, demand a management position, and receive one, based simply on your education, with your lack of working experience in the field not being considered, and if it is, it is considered discriminatory by the potential applicant.
This explains it well.

So, really, the majority of folks in my age group are after the American dream, just the socialist version that they don't have to earn.
 
Last Edited:
I see this new bill also adds law enforcement powers to an outside agency for enforcement of said, and it does not address the current regulatory body that over sees the current firearms laws and regulations, but has also ruled on the listed bills contents and found them to be with in the scope of current law! So, they just side step the regulatory agency currently in charge and back door legislation to suit their agenda, Neat-0! Rut Ro Raggy, Rotsa Ruck! 2020 is gonna be epic!
 
I wonder how long it will take to outlaw cnc machines, lathes and blocks of steel and aluminum.


They'll eventually pass a law against anyone not in the "elite class" having an IQ over 90 and make everyone who turns 14 take a test after imbibing something that keeps them from "holding back".... if you score too high then you're either chemically labotomized, or euthanized.

Argh that girl is annoying as hell. I myself am 30, I have been working for more than half my life, I've been in construction, farming, loaded drove and delivered hay, I am now a civil servant and have been for 4 years. I plan on working in this job for a solid 30 years so I can retire with a comfortable pension. Maybe it is spendy to live in a big city I wouldn't know. I own a small ranch in rural Wa and when I'm not at my day job I'm working here or doing side jobs. I've noticed that there is a moderately sized faction of people my age that want to be lazy sacks of bubblegum, on the flip side most all I associate with have always worked hard and will always work hard. I think it's all in how people were raised. I have a BA degree but paid for it out of my pocket and have no debt from that.

Similar but different. I agree that the way we were raised had something to do with it. I grew up in the woods, in an area that has been evacuated due to wildfire three times in 30 years. Needless to say, work became a friend early, as the near constant cutting of brush likely saved my mother's home on at least one of those occasions.
If you learn early that you have to earn the results you want in life, you become a hard worker and stay that way. If you learn that you can be complacent and still be kinda comfortable, you stay that way. Too many people's kids learned the latter.
