Congressman Mondaire Jones (D-NY) said recently on the House floor that they will pass legislation to get "weapons of war out of our communities." He further stated "You will not stop us in the House and you will not stop us in the Senate. If you filibuster we will abolish it. If the Supreme Court objects we will add (justices) to it. We will do whatever it takes to end gun violence... whatever it takes."
When asked to define a weapon of war he said "Semiautomatic weapons." When he was told that would include most guns in the United States his response was "semiautomatic does not include handguns," then refused to answer any more questions.
Really? Semiautomatic does not include handguns? Another example of a Democrat who knows nothing about firearms wanting to take yours away.
In other news, part of the latest gun control legislation is said to contain gun storage rules that include all guns being secured, unloaded, in a secure gun safe. Empty magazines must be stored separately and ammunition must be securely stored in a separate room. Those rules effectively eliminate home defense with a firearm unless one can get the perpetrator to wait for a minute or two while you gather all components necessary to shoot an intruder. I doubt the intruder will agree with that but hey... you can always beg.
I don't know any gun owner, who owns guns for home protection, who is going to do this. So how does the government enforce It? Will they be sending federal agents on compliance teams to your homes with warrants to enter the premises and verify you're following the rules? And if you're not, will they have confiscation authority? Will they be heavily armed in case someone resists? If not, how else would they enforce the law?
If this happens will this still be the United States of America?
