    California’s strict gun control started with Reagan because he wanted to disarm the Black Panthers. Republicans are pro 2A, as long as it is reserved for white conservative/fascist people.

    EDIT: Governor Reagan. So, before he became president, but 100 fold once he got shot.

    He just wants ICE, Fascists, 2A-toters and white rednecks to be armed.

    He doesn’t want blacks, LGBTQ and enemies of the government to be armed.

    “Don’t Tread On Me” bros warming up, stretching, hydrating, preparing to stoop the lowest they have ever stooped to lick Trump’s boots as he ramps up his attacks on the Second Amendment

    Best part of this article.

    Whaaaaaaaat! The guy who said “Take the guns first, go through due process second” is suggesting they take your guns? Its almost like he says what he is going to do before he does it, Im sure absolutely no one saw this coming.

    They are clearly trying to ensure that they will never be subject to a legitimate election again. Minnesota is a test for how many constitutional amendments they can break. Presidential term limits are absolutely the target. When the oligarchs no longer need their cult they will repeal the entire Constitution. Welcome to the New Confederacy.

        Maybe not, but what I see is more ideologically in line with the Confederates than with the Nazis. That was the secret sauce the whole time. They want the entire US government to be reset to the antebellum era and to pick up as though Lincoln never existed.

      Trump is nearing his life’s term limit. A 3rd term from him personally is not particularly concerning. That’s still a red line in the sand that we should never allow anyone to cross but I’ll be surprised if he makes it through his current term in good enough condition to even pretend to be in charge.

        Trump is just a symptom. The christofascists in his ear are the sickness. Trump is there just to bulldoze through the Constitution and establish a one party system.

            Another will replace him. Not vance either, not for long. If you I think everything goes back to normal after this President is out you are quite mistaken.

    Oh NOW it’s a conversation they’re willing to have. Not after 20 years of school shootings.

    Fucking hypocrite cunts.

      The NRA and gun rights groups have condemned Trump’s rhetoric.

      Seems like it’s just the UltraMAGA typical bootlickers that are rolling over for Trump.

      Nobody is having that conversation because of a comment Trump made. Literally no change to gun rights is being proposed or even suggested. People are drawing unfounded policy conclusions from nothing.

      It was wrong then, and it’s wrong now. Let’s not pretend that Democrats aren’t just as happy to disarm minorities as the Republicans.

      Yep. They don’t give a shit as long as we are just shooting each other. They only care when it might create a problem for the state.

    He took your rights. Now he’s going to take your guns. So you couldn’t take your rights back.

    You’ll have to be a registered Republican to own guns. Which wouldn’t be all that much of a change, really.
