US 2nd Amendment Under Assault, Freedom Firearms Guns Defense

[grarpamp]

Democrats state they do not give one shit about the US Constitution,
nor did all failed countries in history about theirs either.
Numbers are stark, hardly any Democrat has ever
fired any firearm, rarely spent so much as a day
at an arms range, never taken classes, never joined
any shooting sports, doesn't own any firearm, never
been Military or LE, etc. Yet you moronic sheeple
let them rule over your life with an iron fist,
and let them point their Govt guns at you.
Truly beyond dumb, failure cometh upon you soon.


House Judiciary Democrts Vote To Advance Expansive Gun Control Bill

The House Judiciary Committee voted this week to advance a gun control
bill in the wake of a deadly shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

The final vote fell along party lines, with every committee Republican
voting against the legislation and every committee Democrat voting to
advance it.

Splits between Democrats and Republicans were on full display during
the hearing, which focused on the “Protecting Our Kids” Act, H.R.
7910.

That bill, among other provisions, would ban the sale of “any
semiautomatic centerfire rifle or semi-automatic centerfire shotgun
that has, or has the capacity to accept, an ammunition feeding device
with a capacity exceeding 5 rounds” to citizens below the age of 21;
currently one only needs to be 18 to buy such a weapon.

It would also codify the Department of Justice’s controversial ban on
bump stocks, a weapon modification that increases the fire rate of a
semiautomatic firearm.

In addition, it would also make it a federal crime to possess weapons
that critics have pejoratively labeled “ghost guns,” usually
describing homemade or 3D-printed weapons without a serial number.

Democrats pushed strongly for the passage of the bill, saying that
stricter gun control laws are needed in response to the shooting in
Uvalde that left 19 children and two adults dead.

The legislation “might have saved those children in Uvalde,” Judiciary
Chairman Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) said, adding “whoever saves one life,
it’s as if he saved the whole world.”

Rep. David Cicilline (D-R.I.) argued at one point in the hearing that
arguments against the bill hinging on the Second Amendment are faulty.

“The Supreme Court has ruled time and time again that the Second
Amendment is not absolute,” he said.

Others pushed for the bill as a matter of urgency, and called for
various changes to Senate rules and the Supreme Court’s composition if
necessary to pass the legislation.

“This epidemic of gun violence is not unstoppable,” said Rep. Mondaire
Jones (D-N.Y.). “It is a choice—a choice you could make differently at
any time, a choice between our lives and your guns.”

“Time and time again you have chosen to put your right to kill over
our right to live,” Jones added. “But your selfishness and your
indifference have not killed our hope.”

“If the filibuster stops us, we will abolish it,” Jones said. “If the
Supreme Court objects, we will expand it. And we will not rest until
we have taken weapons of war out of circulation in our communities.”

“Each and every day, we will do whatever it takes to end gun
violence,” Jones said. “Whatever it takes,” he emphasized.

Republicans, by contrast, have pushed for legislation to address
mental illness and to increase school security, but have rejected
efforts to limit gun rights.

While what happened in Uvalde was “a tragedy,” Judiciary Ranking
Member Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) said, “protecting children is not a
Democrat or Republican issue.”

Jordan called instead for legislation based on making schools safer
rather than restricting gun rights, a sentiment shared by many other
Republicans.

“We’re all for that,” Jordan said. “But we’re not for taking away
Second Amendment liberties.”

Rather, Jordan said, we should focus on discovering “the why” of mass
shootings: “Until we discover the ‘why,’ we’re never going to solve
the problem.”

“The left and the Democrats’ response to practically every problem is
to take more power and control into the national government, or take
away individuals’ rights, or throw taxpayer money at the
problem—sometimes both,” said Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.).

“That’s why they tend to exacerbate practically every problem without
resolution,” Biggs said. “They misidentify the cause of virtually
every effect.

“The misuse of guns for evil or even criminal purposes is another
example. Millions of Americans safely and responsibly own and use
guns.”

Rep. Dan Bishop (R-N.C.) echoed the sentiment.

“You are not going to bully your way into stripping Americans of
fundamental rights,” Bishop said.

In a statement, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said that
the House would vote on the legislation next week.

Though the legislation is likely to pass the lower chamber, it has
little to no chance of passing in the Senate, where it would need the
support of at least 10 Republicans to overcome the 60-vote filibuster
threshold.
