Not important. There are many important things going on. This ain't one of them.

AR-15s are here to stay.


Lol. Sorry. Nothing is forever. Change up SCOTUS and presto chango abortion rights are gone, AR 15s could be gone, whatever we vote for can be preserved or be gone.


Yep. Time for a new SCOTUS. Overturn Heller and Citizens United.


Biden's nominee for SCOTUS testified that Heller is the law of the land, just as Trump's picks said about Roe. Should she be impeached if she votes to overturn Heller?


Do you mean should she be held to a different standard than Trump’s picks were?

It shouldn’t be an insult to anyone except those advocating using force of law and police violence to take lawfully owned rifles away from Americans who legally own them.

The AR-15 is THE most common long gun/rifle in America. There are more AR-15’s than there are minivans on the road. These pins make it clear to everyone they stand against disarming the American people. I support that.


when these guns are outlawed they get rid of most of them with a buy back program so relax and stop spouting nonsense. no one is coming to forcibly take your precious gun. most will sell it when they realize it is good for nothing and they would rather have the cash.

And Santos is a garbage representative by all accounts so anything that crook does should be viewed with high suspicion.


Didn’t these folks PAY for the guns? They already made the decision they’d rather have a gun than cash.




If the guns are outlawed, isn’t that forcibly taking them back?

When the guns are outlawed, as they were for a decade and will be again, I am guessing people will be take their cash back.


Owners will be paid for them. They will not just be taken away.


Interesting. And where does that 1/8th of a trillion dollars come from?

60 million guns @ $1,200ea + 1.2 billion magazines @ $40ea = $120,000,000,000

That’s 1/5th of the entire budget for the Department of Defense.

Maybe dems could have a bake sale to raise money?

Perhaps they can wear pins with gas stoves instead. Those also seem to be causing libs to lose their minds lately.


What? It’s cons who are losing their minds over gas stoves. Haven’t you seen all the fuss Fox News and Repub politicians are generating over them?

It’s kind of hilarious because liberal areas have way higher numbers of gas stoves and red areas.
CALIFORNIA has the highest percentage of households using gas for cooking. So cons are trying to raise a ruckus in defense the lifestyles of liberal elites! Lol


People were concerned for a very good reason, Sport. And, it isn't just conservatives.



The Biden administration seriously considered banning natural gas-powered stoves before it received widespread criticism for considering such a move, according to an internal memo obtained by Fox News Digital.

In the memo dated Oct. 25, 2022, Richard Trumka Jr. — whom President Biden appointed to serve on the five-person Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) — wrote to a fellow commissioner that there was sufficient evidence for the agency to move forward with a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR) to ban gas stoves in the near future. Trumka's memo was titled, "NPR Proposing Ban on Gas Stoves (Indoor Air Quality)."

"The need for gas stove regulation has reached a boiling point," the CPSC commissioner wrote in the October memo. "CPSC has the responsibility to ban consumer products that emit hazardous substances, particularly, when those emissions harm children, under the Federal Hazardous Substances Act."

"Emerging evidence is sufficient to conclude that gas stoves in homes emit toxic gasses that cause illness and that lower-cost, safer alternatives are available," Trumka added.

Trumka noted that the two largest U.S. cities, New York City and Los Angeles, had already banned gas stoves in new construction "for health and inequity reasons" and because gas stoves "strongly contribute to climate change through greenhouse gas emissions."

"There is sufficient information available for CPSC to issue an NPR in FY 2023 proposing to ban gas stoves in homes," he concluded. "The additional work needed to complete an NPR is primarily economic; the available health and scientific evidence on illnesses caused by the relevant gasses at the concentrations present in homes with gas stoves already exists."

LOL

Even if true that this was “seriously considered” by more than one person, it’s still hilarious that Republicans would take up a cause that mostly benefits elites and blue states. If there were a survey done you can bet that more liberals cook with gas stoves than conservatives. Guaranteed.

Republicans have always made people self fund the important things while defense contractors have made trillions. You’re just continuing a bad habit.

Sorry. When the government uses eminent domain to take back property, that seems pretty forcible even if the property owner is compensated.

Sorry but you ain't gonna get retail prices for crappy old used guns. Especially when the bans come and the buyback cash is a courtesy.

I'm not against guns and I believe people should have the right to own a gun for self defense.

But AR-15s are war weapons. These should not be in the hands of private individuals, for obvious reasons.

You gotta be reasonable. What possible use could an AR-15 have for the average American? There is no peacetime use for an AR-15.

I believe we should all be insisting our constitutional rights be respected by our government. I believe that we need to do away with militarized police forces, because as a democracy these dangerous toys and attitudes don't belong in peaceful communities. Remaining watchful that our constitutional rights be respected should be our first line of defense against the possibility of an adversarial government trying to turn this nation into a police state. Not owning AR-15s. Come on.


Didn't do any good when the government locked up beaches and parks and playgrounds, and shut down businesses and mandated vaccines.

By that logic it is Democrats who are losing their minds over abortion.

60 million guns and 1.2 billion magazines is 20 magazines for each and every gun. Who keeps that many magazines? Most people I know don't have anywhere near that many magazines for each gun they own.

The government is supposed to pay what is a fair market value for what is taken. What do you think the legal fair market value of a bump stock is, now that they have been banned? It's $0. Not legally allowed to buy or sell them.

The loony right started right in with fearmongering narratives suggesting new world order jackboots were gonna kick in your grandma's door and rip out her stove while the cookies are still baking inside. Even though that isn't at all what was proposed.

With this idiotic R House, it's not out of the question that some of them are already carrying on the debate floor. After all, why was one of the very first and most urgent orders of business to rip out the metal detectors?

They wear them to be trolls and destabilize the country. Someone is paying at least some of these people through donations or other methods. Santos has had money problems and seems not to have held a normal job. Where does he get money? From whoever told him to wear the pin.

They are con men and women.
