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.

Cool. Then it becomes a state’s right issue just like abortion.

And there are a bunch of states that will NEVER be banning AR-15’s. Just like there are states that will NEVER ban abortion.


And that’s how it will be. Fine with me.

You know where to shove your states rights. That crap was used to justify slavery. Women will regain their right to privacy and reporductive freedom for ALL of us. This was the right of our grandmothers and mother's and will be the fight again for us and our daughters.

They are being clear that they prefer guns over the American flag. It says, “I’m bought and paid for by the NRA.”

Don't be surprised when one of the GOP crazies brings one onto Floor of House (I know there is a rule against firearms there) and flashes it next Tuesday during President's SOTU speech. With these nuts, don't be surprised if one of them shoots the President.

This is not hyperbole.

Totally normal political party 🤪

Trashy and distasteful. Might as well just wear a shirt that says “Bought and Paid for”. Republicans serving the $$$ interests at the expense of the People, as usual.

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.

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.

Look at the kind of person posting on this thread in favor of absolute gun rights. That’s all you need to know. They’re not quite our kind, dear, and by “our kind” I mean “decent people.”

Vote Democratic. Don’t like a Democratic policy? Get active in the party and change it, because there is only one political party right now and then on the other side is a sack of treason weasels with oppositional defiant disorder and a mania to oppress.

I'm fine with gun rights, but it doesn't mean every gun should be legal nor is it necessary.

Exactly.
I posed this to my gun nut cousin. I framed it as a pro police stance.
He was stumped.

Plenty of police officers are right wingers. They helped bring this on themselves. If you are afraid to go up against these ridiculous weapons.....do not vote in favor of allowing these ridiculous weapons everywhere. Duh.

I will give it to the right to show us all how this is done. We need a sustained focus on getting justices on SCOTUS that will not serve corporations and the gun lobby.

The gun lobby. They’re probably paying them to wear those.
