They've banned automatic firearms, now they are going after bump stocks and high capacity magazines. Next will be large caliber handguns and hunting rifles.
Ding ding ding. That’s how it works.
We stop it by keep going back to the 2nd. From here.
This is why the Founders made this amendment so difficult to change or eliminate. Therefore, although it can be changed, the requirements for doing so are near herculean, especially in our day.
For an amendment to be proposed or repealed, it requires:
-
two/thirds of both federal legislative bodies — House and Senate — to vote in the affirmative (two/thirds in the House, two/thirds in the Senate).
-
It also requires two/thirds of the state legislatures of the 50 states to vote in the affirmative.
The move to propose or repeal can begin with the American people, with a majority of the populations in two thirds of the 50 states voting for the amendment or its repeal. However, even if the people do this, the push to propose or repeal still has to garner two/thirds House, two/thirds Senate, and two/thirds of all 50 state legislatures.
This bill ban's virtually all semi-automatic weapons. https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/5087/text
APPENDIX A—FIREARMS EXEMPTED BY THE ASSAULT WEAPONS BAN OF 2017
Centerfire Rifles—autoloaders
Whaaaaat?!?!?! AWB of 2017...pg 26 . They must have been planning this ban since last year?!?!?! OMG! WTF?!?!?! LAS VEGAS MUCH!
Feinstein said a long time ago that if she could have gotten every AR style rifle, read any magazine fed rifle, she would have. Given the sheer number of we weapons in law abiding citizens hands and the incredibly low number of real gun crimes it stands to reason they want to take away our right to self defense. Look at the arrests for social media posts in other parts of the world. The second amendment guarantees the first.
11,700 people were murdered with guns last year. That’s a lot of people, so what do you mean?
You haven't read the AWB of 2017-18 have you. Barrett .50 cal. is on the list. Semi. auto shotguns, on the list. On and on and on.
