“ Kamala Harris wasted no time going after the Second Amendment. She vowed to confiscate firearms through so-called ‘red flag’ laws.

“We, who believe in the freedom to live safe from gun violence will finally pass universal background checks, red flag laws and an assault weapons ban!” Harris said to cheers.”

There's this little thing called the Supreme court, and they're on our side...

scare tactics to mobilize her base.
the 2nd amendment isn’t going anywhere…

Barack Obama was the greatest gun salesman there ever was. And he did nothing. Biden did nothing. Bill Clinton pass the “assault weapons” ban and it did nothing (we all survived just fine with grandfathered items). There are so many millions of in-jeopardy firearms and mags in circulation now that it would be nigh impossible for there to be any meaningful or noticeable change in mine or your firearm habits.

there is nothing nefarious about a background check. I don’t want felons or the mentally ill using the legal market to acquire firearms (yes they can get them elsewhere but so can I). I don’t want domestic abusers, repeat offenders, violent radicals and other jackasses using the legal market either. As far another ban, honestly I don’t care. If you are prudent you already have what you want.

the idea that this country “can’t survive” an administration led by the opposition part is a republican construct, nothing more as history so often demonstrates.

This man gets it.

I was actually looking for an old email a few days ago and came across an email chain from 2008 with some buddies that were spewing the same rhetoric about Obama. I've purchased plenty of weapons since then and I've had exactly zero seized.

Besides, even if a Harris White House was serious about going after guns (and I mean serious, not some sort of Blue Ribbon Panel examining the root causes of gun crimes committed by white males) both the House and Senate are nearly guaranteed to have republican majorities come January. They would checks and balances the crap out of any executive order. Toss in the lawsuits and yeah nobody is coming for anything. Everybody needs to settle down with this stuff.

Even mentioning taking guns or gun control used to be a death sentence to any politicians career.


The NRA needs to get on the Trump Train

You mean like personally?

Or will she beat the gunconfication drum to garner votes , then when in office run into the same 2nd amendment brick wall that all progressive gun grabbers run into. THe founding fathers were smarter than politicians today. They knew a law would be stripped away like toilet paper, but a constitutional right and a SCOTUS to backup that constitution would pose a much harder task to dismantle.

If this ever happens I feel sure that they will have to hire illegals to try to seize guns. No citizen of this country in their right mind would go knocking on someone's door to seize their guns. Well, they might do it once.

A conservative Supreme Court sees AR-15s as a common use weapon. There are cases about sbr’s being common use (as such suppressors as well) right now going through the court system and hopefully leading to the repeal of the nfa. I believe a guy had a sbr and didn’t pay the tax and is fighting it. We will see.

What other rights do you want to give up for a decade?

Spot on post. The argument the 'they are going to take our guns' crowd SHOULD make is that if we elect these people that down the line it makes it more likely that someone takes my grandkids' guns.... which is accurate, but not as motivating of a sell as "you won't have guns next year if X person is elected" is.

Try and look and think past the end of your nose.


The naivety of many of you baws is palpable. It’s as if you haven’t been and/or don’t want to pay attention to what’s afoot.

I'm more worried about some conservative SCOTUS judges retiring and being replaced by liberal ones if HeelsUp gets elected than a gun ban.

Yep, thats the long term fear here.

I'm not worried about guns being taken, but that doesn't mean I'm not concerned about the outcome of the election in terms of long-term gun rights.

She might get yours

But she's not getting mine. And neither is anyone else. So this is way down on the list of things I'm worried about

The left says it's impossible to find and deport 15 million ILLEGAL ALIENS but they are going to find and confiscate 220+ millions guns
They are going to have to Profile and they are against Profiling.

This thread is actually typical of the scare tactics Trump would use to mobilize his base.

"KAMALA is coming after your guns!!!"

Spare me the political theatre. No one is coming after your guns.

White Dudes For Harris


I dunno. If Joe Burrow knocked on my door and asked for my guns, I might give him a few if he signed some stuff and took a pic with my family
