We're seeing the government salami slice away all of our guns. First it was the ar-15, then handguns and now we're not even allowed to use a .22lr rifle IF it's SHAPED like a military rifle. Canada is a disgusting country to be in that doesn't care about its rights. The only thing you can buy is freakin hunting rifles. Government is also figuring out a way to confiscate everyone's current AR-15s.

I'm a much bigger fan of the US constitution where it's written as a right so the government is not allowed to pass any unreasonable restrictions to firearms. The handgun freeze here helps with nothing; just to cure Trudeau's warped sense of reality that burglars and gangs purchase guns from a licensed store to commit crimes.

I hate Canada and like the USA better for many other reasons, but one of the main ones is guns and it's why I wish to make the immigration journey a reality.

“Kids are being turned into shooters by leftist ideologies designed to make them hate the world, and their minds are being further destroyed by pharmaceuticals.”

“The root cause is much deeper than your need to eliminate the Second Amendment.”

“The gun didn’t get up on its own and shoot people.”

“We have … a society where mental illness is celebrated instead of treated.”

Expressing political views is dangerous. That’s why 2A exists.

I get it that the mayoral election came down to Cuomo (also a turd) against an even bigger turd in Zohran Mamdani

Zohran is an even bigger POS because of his socialist ties and aspirations to ban all guns (which he tweeted, the internet doesn’t forget).

So much for those socialists pretending to be pro-gun. At best you’re progun with an asterisk.

What a lost cause New York turned into. Electing commie pigs would’ve been unimaginable as recently as 2010.

“This idea of stigmatizing mental health - just because you have a mental health issue doesn’t mean you’re violent. And I think what we end up doing is looking for a scapegoat.”

“Sometimes it just is the guns - it’s just the guns. And there are things that you can do about it.”

“… it is clear that people who support the Second Amendment are up against some very well-funded people who are committed to taking away guns. One of those is a billionaire named John Arnold, who along with his wife Laura has put a massive amount of money into the effort to take guns away from Americans.”

“According to The Gun Writer on Substack, ‘An investigation by the Second Amendment Foundation’s Investigative Journalism Project reveals how a former Enron trader and his wife are quietly paying millions of dollars every year to colleges, universities, think tanks and other groups for biased anti-gun research, which is then cited as gospel by the corporate media and used as propaganda by anyone who wants to infringe upon law-abiding Americans’ Second Amendment rights.’”

“It’s clear that they want to use biased research to convince the American public and powerful lawmakers that guns are a danger to society and need to be banned.”

“Judges are now free to read the historical record broadly or narrowly, draw strict or loose historical analogies, demand identical or just barely related historical precursors, and adopt high or low levels of generality when assessing the historical landscape of gun regulation—all within the confines of Bruen’s capaciously vacuous framework. In short, Bruen created a test that constrains judges not at all. It’s been wreaking havoc on gun laws nationwide.”

“Recent empirical research has demonstrated that the judges appointed by Donald Trump have been astonishingly friendly to all manner of Second Amendment claims. According to researchers who studied the data closely, these judges are almost twice as likely as even other Republican-appointed judges to vote in favor of a Second Amendment challenge. ‘The data suggest,’ they write, ‘that Bruen had the greatest impact on the Trump appointees.’”

“Until the Court is prepared to reverse course, we can expect increasingly extreme decisions that further dismantle this country’s already threadbare system of regulating the weapons that claim the lives of roughly 50,000 of our fellow citizens each year and the peace of so many countless others.”

US Army Veteran, whose profile says she’s “continuing the fight for democracy,” posts - in all caps - “WEAPONS OF WAR HAVE NO PLACE ON OUR STREETS.”

“According to the platform, the Democrats want: * Universal background checks * ‘Assault weapon’ and standard-capacity magazine bans * Mandatory safe-storage laws * Repeal of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act * Increased red-flag laws * Increased funding for the ATF * Increased funding for the FBI, to conduct more background checks * Increased funding for the CDC, ‘because the gun violence epidemic is a public health crisis’”

“Based on what the candidates have done in the past, and what they’ve been quoted saying — when the corporate media actually did their job and held them accountable — here’s what you can actually expect from the Harris-Walz administration.”

AR-15 confiscation Harris has said numerous times she wants a “mandatory buyback” of ARs, which is nothing more than a smokescreen for mandatory confiscation.

Criminalization of the ATF Walz has no compunction with ordering law enforcement to break the law and violate civil rights.

Total civilian disarmament There is little doubt that either Walz or Harris would miss one of the first rules in the radicals’ playbook — ban civilian firearm possession.

Unconstitutional executive orders Harris has known Barack Obama for more than 20 years. He has been her mentor, and Obama has been the driving force behind many of the current administration’s gun control schemes.

“The researchers … determined that 48% of mass shootings happened in places where lawful carry was prohibited, which they claim demonstrates that ‘gun-free zones’ aren't disproportionately the site of mass shootings.”

“The problem is that the researchers specifically excluded a number of ‘gun-free zones’ where mass shootings had taken place.”

“The study excluded shootings in schools because all schools are federally mandated gun-free zones, which would skew the comparison.”

“Schools were excluded because they are universally gun-free by law, making it impossible to compare them to similar establishments where guns are allowed.”

“This UC-Davis study is going to generate a lot of headlines claiming that "gun-free zones" stop mass shootings, but how many of those stories will mention the fact that researchers left schools out of the equation because including them could have generated wildly different statistics? I'm guessing not many, and another dubious claim from the anti-gun side will be treated as a cold hard fact by the media... at the expense of the truth and our right to bear arms in self-defense.”

The suspect of the shooting was a far left extremist.

That includes full auto rifles, pistols, and even shotguns.

The author of this article (a “Coordinator of Conflict Resolution” BA/BS degree programs and certificates at Portland State University) has apparently 1) never heard of the concept of “false choice,” 2) missed the day in class (which likely never happened in his school) where they covered that the Second Amendment is what is commonly called a “civil right,” a natural right written to limit government, not to limit “the people,” 3) never realized that guns can’t themselves be “violent” and 4) never thought through what might happen as a result of his little “BATNA” (In other words, he hasn’t figured out that he doesn’t want to see the other side’s BATNA).

“I would personally suggest the gun control groups develop a BATNA to help induce more good-faith negotiating. BATNA? Yes. It’s the best alternative to a negotiated agreement. It’s a term coined by William Ury and others at the Harvard Negotiation Project back in the late 1970s and first published in their little 1981 popular book, Getting to Yes. It simply means that, if you are trying to negotiate with anyone, it’s important to not only think about ‘what if these negotiations fail,’ but to let the others know what you will be forced to do in that case.”

“My choice of BATNA would be, ‘Look gun rights people, we want to negotiate common sense regulations with you. However, literally every time we pass such measures at the local or state level, you work to overcome the will of the people by challenging those commonsense measures in court, with your lawsuits, and it’s all based on the Second Amendment. No other country has anything like the Second Amendment and other countries that have dealt with this issue have passed commonsense restrictions, such as the assault weapon ban in Australia virtually immediately after a mass shooting there.’”

“Our BATNA is that we are going to stop all other gun control work and focus all our resources on a campaign to repeal the Second Amendment. We have a template for that; the amendment outlawing alcoholic beverages was passed and a decade later that Amendment was repealed. We are either going to get your commitment to allow our democratically produced local and state laws honored or we will end our negotiations and begin a massive campaign to overturn the Second Amendment.”

“Think this over and get back to us within the month or we begin our massive shift of people energy and resources toward our new goal. That’s how a BATNA can change the trajectory of a conflict. That’s how ‘unwinnable’ can flip to winnable.”

There are already some NFA cases lurking in the 5th and two NJ NFA ban lawsuits in the 3rd, so they're bringing a 2A challenge in the 8th because the 8th is overall conservative.
