NEW VIDEO CRUSHES MYTH ABOUT LARGE CAPACITY MAGAZINES, SAYS CCRKBA

<< < (3/3)

I am not so sure this works for pro-gun.  If people are emotionally scared of firearms, then showing them that even 6 round mags can be fired quickly doesn't do much to make them feel better.

Just watched the Feinstien Judiciary Committee on Assault Weapons Ban. Even though the ban list is largely rifles, terms like semi-automatic and detachable magazine are defining features. Last I looked, a pistol is a semi-automatic firearm with a detachable magazine.  Anti-gun and non-gun people do not know or want to know the difference. I have a 1911 and 92fs which both fit the "military style" criteria.

Better than fanning the fire is to just stand solid on no change. No bans of any kind. The government has to quit taking away rights of law-abiding citizens. Rights should not be converted into privileges.  We can bring in the pro-ban people if we make them realize that an AWB is simple a smoke screen for government money to state law enforcement or what ever else they can stuff into a AWB bill. States are struggling with money and an AWB would contain a lot of law enforcement money if a state jumps on the agenda bandwagon. We should all be appalled that our government brings up emotional subjects, times them on tragedy just to distribute federal tax money. We are being played and most people don't realize what politicians will do to get ahold of money.

To paraphrase someone else:

I will not sacrifice [our rights]. We've made too many compromises already, too many retreats. They invade our space, and we fall back. They [dismantle] entire [liberties], and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far and no further!

*cough*

OK....then the next line....
And I will make them pay for what they've done!

The "done" has already occured.

We need a collition effort to push a bill that completely overshadows the anti-gun proposals. Maybe we can't prevent a pork-fest. Instead let them have what they want, but not only remove any threat of gun ban but instead add in as much pro-gun benefit as possible. A lot of people will come on board with mental health care funding, school security measures, funding for police departments (except anti-gun states...they pay). Make the whole gun-ban people sorry that they even brought things up. They ultimately get what they want, but totally pay on the ban/limit/registration thing with that part going totally opposite and guarantee more and extended gun rights.
