The left-wing war on the private ownership of firearms has turned a page and intensified. We’re used to the usual proposals. You know what they are. Limit this size of magazines. Make guns that look military like AR-15’s illegal. Increase restrictions on those who wish to own guns. Require registration of every firearm owned. Limit the number of firearms a person can own. Make concealed-carry illegal.
Now things have moved to a new level. Jurisdictions are proposing the outright confiscation of certain firearms. Resistance will be a crime punishable by law. Another proposal is to confiscate all firearms from those with a record of mental illness. While no one wants the criminally insane to have guns, this is an easy way for the left to massively expand those who would be barred from owning guns. The definition of mental illnesses is subjective and subject to debate. Suffered a battle with depression or take a particular medication at one time? No guns for you.
Page two brings this matter and these onerous proposals into much sharper focus by examining specific proposals on the table right now.
It is time for the head of this country to put a stop to this unconstitutional overstep!
I agree. This is a flagrant disregard for the US Constitution. If this is allowed to happen without any resistance where will it end? All of our freedoms taken as well. Should we throw up our hands and give up? Marshal Law will be declared once all the weapons are seized from non-military citizens and no stopping or removing corrupt government officials will be impossible. This could possibly start a civilian war for those who would choose to protect our constitution and our rights. Even though I cannot carry a weapon because of bad decisions I made when I was young I still believe in those rights and would fight to preserve.
Don’t open your door! If you do tell them it is in for repairs. lol
Law enforcement should never be put in the position of violating second amendment rights. They are sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United States.
When the deep state sets up murders why are law abiding gun owners the target? This was a setup from the start. Our employees are out of control.
The majority of gun deaths come from Suicide.
If this is true this is a gross violation of this man’s rights under the constitution of the United States and should not be tolerated. I fought for these rights as a member of the Marines and your article says any threat of violence should be avoided but the second amendment is in the constitution to put a check and balance on government
I suppose they haven’t heard the Kentucky’s not going to put up with that c**p from any agency. The best part is our elected officials will not allow it to happen. They support open carry. Dont see Kentucky with mass shootings or weekend riots on a weekly basis.
This is what happens when Democrats are the people in office. They don’t care about the Constitution or the people that hired them in the first place, yet Washingtonians continue to re-elect these non-constitutional criminals back into office over and over again.
How can they legally do this? Federal law, the 2nd Amendment trumps local & state laws. No way would I give mine up. I do have some thoughts on the mental health aspect. I do agree that most of these shooters have had mental health problems. But, how is anyone going to know one has mental health issues? Depression? Suicidal thoughts? Health records are HIPAA protected, therefore are not public. What stops a mentally disturbed person from lying on the registration form?
