i think they're setting themselves up for a "well, it's not as bad as we thought it would be. see, we won after all, because we can still get reasonable restrictions like the '86 ban, but for ALL guns!"
Right, anonymous. "Universal background checks don't affect the right of self-defense in the home. Banning a super dangerous class of weapons, like assault weapons,... curbing large volume sales..." Limiting people to one gun PER LIFETIME, a .22 Short single-shot rifle, would still allow "armed self-defense IN THE HOME." (Criminals and government will still have whatever they want.) All they want to decide is when, where, whom, and how much. We want to avert the storm. They're seeding the clouds. Bring it. It's not like I have a bright future or anything. One of my nieces graduated this week. Sad that my mother didn't live to see it. But life goes on. We do what we can, and what we must. If I'm not there to see my grandchildren graduate, get married, and so on, they'll remember me fondly. Not so the families of those seeking our helplessness before tyranny.
"...a super dangerous class of weapons, like assault weapons..."
Oh Lord! I have one of those super dangerous guns in my house right now! I hope it doesn't hurt anyone before I can get home and exorcise my home of its demonic presence!
Whatever, Paul. And as far as not adversely affecting my right of self-defense in the home, well that's not the only right I'm trying to protect. How about my right to resist the creeping tyranny of my government? What about my civil right to defend my family and myself where ever and whenever we are threatened? How about my right to own and transfer private property?
Don't worry Paul, next we'll save you from that "super dangerous" car that you drive, and that "super dangerous" house that you live in. I'm sure there are hundreds of arbitrary reasons we can come up with to label them as such and then ban them, for your own good of course - and that of your children...

As I've noted on other blogs, The Brady Bunch is going to have to redo their entire web site after SCOTUS rules.
ReplyDeleteThey spend resources to toally revamp as their revenue stream peeters out due to the stunning defeat.
Nice.
