The FAST Approaching Gun Ban

[martin48]

Can the teachers be armed as well? Bet you can enforce discipline in the classroom if you take a couple of students out at the beginning of the class. It's the way forward.

Because of all the other crazy shit happening this one never made headline news:

Apparently Pastor Remington who prayed with Ted Cruz at an Idaho rally was shot the next day by a nut who left behind a thirty-two page manifesto.

Here's a sample from the link above

Odom graduated from the University of Idaho with a degree in biochemistry. The manifesto contended that his life started to deteriorate during his final semester and was now ruined.
"Ruined by an intelligent species of amphibian-humanoid from Mars," the manifesto said.
Odom contended that the Martians were here before humans, lived underground and operated a breeding program for humans, the manifesto said.
"Don't believe me? Ask President Obama to take a lie detector test of this one," the manifesto said.
Odom contended the Martians were unable to control his mind but had been following him. He said he had attempted suicide twice, but they stopped him.
"As you can see, I'm pretty smart," the manifesto said. "I'm also 100% sane, 0% crazy."

How does a someone like this get a gun? Ans: People (ironically like Ted Cruz) who twist and warp the meaning and intentions of Second Amendment in order to bolster and compensate their own baseless feelings of insecurity (or in Ted's case to manipulate those insecurities and turn them into votes).

Four years later and I'm still waiting for this gun ban...

I'm waiting for people to realize that those who push this hysteria are the same ones who are trying to remove everybody's social security.

Unfortunately, reform is only half a yr away. Class 3 owners will be troubled the most. Oh well, times change right?

So that's the peace-loving people with machine guns, suppressors, sawed-off shotguns, mortars, howitzers or grenade launchers.

Yeah, it's bad enough they have to suffer the moniker 'class 3 owner'; it's like they don't even rate second class.

You forgot short barrel rifles and anti-tank canons. Come on now.

But yes, those are the population I spoke of. Probably the most scrutinized bunch of the gun world and the least likely to commit a weapons based offense.

not a terrible change in the law, just more inconvenient.

Ahh...the irony couldn't be any sweeter. I wonder if she feels gilt-y about it?
