Virginia declares emergency Militias threaten to seize Gov.

[The Lone Alliance]

The media wanted violence more than anyone else.

Which brings us back to the age old question, why are those who are anti gun so violent?

Why do you think so many of them are so anti-gun, it's likely that many of them can't trust themselves with a gun, so they believe no one can be trusted with a gun.

It's Projection.

[Thermodolia]

But they do. Effectively. The president is in charge of enforcing the law. If tomorrow the president decided to not enforce a law he’s technically just interpreted the laws.

Congress can’t force the president to really do anything if he refuses to enforce anything

Congress absolutely can mandate enforcement of statutes.

And what if the executive says enforce it yourself? What then?

[Thermodolia]

Only if you care about those minorities.

They only care about minorities when they need to count on their vote, then it's back to fucking them over along with everyone else.
One thing I have noticed over the years, is the uptick in minority shooters at the ranges. When asked if they had always been into firearms, the answer is usually no and they attribute their interest after hearing from folks like Colion and Maj.

One of the many reasons I like the republicans more than the democrats. Because at least the republicans are upfront about what they don’t like and aren’t gonna stab you in the back

It’s just unfamiliarity. And like that quote from Batman Begins, you’re always afraid of what you don’t understand. Whether that’s guns, power tools, or heavy machinery - they’re loud, use parts with incomprehensible names, and are potential safety hazards. People fear guns for the same reason they fear being near running chainsaws and combines.

I make it a point to try and introduce my friends unfamiliar with guns to guns when they visit. They’re free to have whatever opinions they want on gun control (and we don’t discuss that unless it comes up), but I just want them to see how mine work, basic safety, and get a chance to load and shoot one themselves if they want.

I find that after being allowed to see guns up close and handle them, opinions on gun control change with the level of familiarity. Some still have no interest in owning guns themselves, but at least they’re no longer afraid of them and can appreciate why I have them.

^ This 100% all day every day.

anytime someone tells me "they don't like guns"

I follow up with "why"

"idk they scare me"

I think excusing their beliefs as simple ignorance is foolhardy.

Let me tell you about a very possible future that you are already seeing in places like Washington which have just introduced a proposed ban on "high capacity mags'

Democrats will continue to bring in illegal immigrants, as they always do, and offer welfare to the poor, homeless,addicted etc etc

they will use this massive horde of easily swayed voters which can be very easily bought with things like "sanctuary" or "safe injection sites" and "low cost housing"

they will use this horde, and I do mean horde, to simply outvote the rural areas by dominating the dense urban areas.

First they will vote your weapons away

second they will vote your resources away

third they will vote your speech away.

Ok Mr. Hannity

Which brings us back to the age old question, why are those who are anti gun so violent?

Because they don't care about guns. They just want control.

It's harder to oppress armed people. The anti gun movement is being led by government officials who wanna make it easier to turn America into a corporate police state

Your average gun control supporter is simply ignorant. It's the people pulling the strings of these movements that have ulterior motives

Truth ^

all political power comes from the barrel of a gun as a certain "chairman" said and he was right

political power is only power if it is actually backed up by some type of action that can force the other party to concede.

It’s fear, and fear is caused by ignorance, so I fail to see how it’s any way an unreasonable conclusion. People don’t trust themselves (or others) with firearms because they’re scary, the devices of terrifying spree shooters and gangbangers. Again, this is fear caused by personal unfamiliarity with firearms in any other context.

Yeah, one of my coworkers at my last job was a Japanese teen from Virginia Beach who was into shooting trap. Wish I could introduce him to all the folks who think gun owners are white rural dwellers.

You shouldn't dismiss this outright as there is a grain of truth here. Since black Americans are beginning to vote other than solely democrat, the democrat party needs fresh meat.

its obvious, children are very easy to control and influence which makes them great voters which is PERFECT if your ideology dominates the education system

I wonder what party is DEEP inside the ass of education?....hmmmm

remember, any good totalitarian state needs to have the youth vote.

Example: California, the state I LIVE in

the democrat control the large dense urban areas FILLED with most of the nations homeless and declared themselves sanctuary cities

Gov newsom just passed a bill that gives illegals 25 and younger acess to medicare(i think teusday)

First they said " we just want high capacity mags"

then it all went down hill after that.

So Cal has domination over Nor Cal water supplys, this even results in there being water rationing for us here in the North.

as for speech, sure, they havn't quite gotten there, but they did get to weapons and resources.
