I don’t think we will see a repeal of the second amendment in our lifetimes but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t worried about it for a children’s generation. They’ll continue to push, prod and provoke until they have enough support. It may take them 30-40 years but they’ll keep pushing. It’s the only thing that stands in their way of total control.
They don’t need to repeal it. Guns are still legal in the UK.
If you jump through enough hoops, have enough money, have the police around your house whenever they feel like it etc.
Handguns are banned. Most semi automatics are out of course.
But they’re still available. Technically. To make the dying generations feel better whilst being powerless.
This month the pistol brace ban will happen. It’s the front lines of the 2A. If they get away with it, “assault weapons “ will be next. Then semi automatics, and so on
Disney has been doing nothing but hemorrhaging money for over 5 years while it pushes its woke ideology. It’s not about money it’s about power and control.
The military industrial complex will gladly sacrifice civilian markets no matter how lucrative, for the clubs goals of total control of the planet.
The 2nd amendment survives exactly as long as the American peoples will to fight for it lasts. If we give ground, assault weapons ban, pistol brace ban etc, it will slowly be eroded away.
interesting take, though i'm not sure how involved the actual mil/ind complex is with the civvie side.. here's THE prime mover and shaker for several years now- worth the 5 min.
There is a tremendous amount of Propaganda levied against firearms for individual protection. The very term "Gun Violence" is in itself a piece of word Propaganda to demonize firearms. We cannot succeed in defending our Rights if you let them control the terminology. There is no such thing as "Gun Violence". Firearms are inanimate objects, they have no capacity for violence without an external force. For example, there are typically an average of around 30k deaths each year where a firearm is involved in the USA. In a population of 350 million plus people with over an estimated 400+ million firearms in civilian hands, this is a very tiny percentage. Half or more of these "Gun Violence" are self inflicted suicides ( serious suicidal folks tend to succeed with or without firearms, so this number is not likely to be changed through firearm reduction methods). This reduces the rate of firearm related deaths to approximately 15k. Out of the remaining 15k, roughly 80% are involved with the illicit narcotics trade, meaning criminals ( who will have firearms regardless of laws, it is kinda the definition of a criminal to disregard inconvenient laws). If we exclude drug related homicides we are left with approximately 3k firearm related deaths. This includes deaths that are the result of Law Enforcement, Legal Self-defense shootings and other lawful acts which only account for a hundred to two hundred deaths per year. This leaves us with about 2.8-2.9k deaths per year due to firearms usage. Repealing the 2nd Amendment will save approximately 3k lives per year. However, the remaining ~3k deaths are usually murder. Does anyone think that the motivation behind a murder will be mitigated by the lack of a firearm? Look up the rate of deaths by blunt objects. Look up the rate of deaths by knife or edged weapon. Look up the number of annual drownings, vehicle accidents, medical malpractice. All of these things account for more needless death in the US than firearm homicides. Knowing that homicide tends to happen regardless if a firearm is available means that virtually nothing can be done to mitigate them. Perhaps the time, money and energy could be utilized to mitigate some other cause of needless death? So why the expense of all these resources? It damn sure isn't about saving any lives, so you have to ask, "Why is it so important that they take guns away from law abiding citizens?". Virtually everyone here knows the answer to this. Educate yourselves to the facts and discover the motivation behind our enemies. This is the way to defend our Human Rights. If anything, we should be pushing to make self defense a Universal Human Right for the entire world.
Gun manufacturers and defense contractors arent the same. Sure, Colt supplied the govt, but they are by no means Raytheon, Northrup Gtumman ,et al. But yay guns, i do agree!!
We said the same about the fossil fuel industry, yet they have been quiet during the push for "green". Why? Because they are the top backers in "green" energy. They are a business and they will find a way to make a return for the investor or they will shut down when the investors pull out. They will just invest in something else
Banning firearms never really works. When Governments try to do that, the firearms owned by law abiding people go underground.
Australia is a good example. Before semi automatic firearms were banned in New South Wales and Victoria in 1986 and then in the other States and Territories in 1996, there were no adequate records kept.
The only records necessary were people had to have a shooters licence in some States.
In 1996 all firearms had to be registered.
Legal firearm ownership has steadily increased since 1996. At present, legal firearms number over 3.2 million.
The number of Illegal, unregistered firearms is believed to be from 1.5 million up to 4 million, many of them semi automatics.
The Authorities know this, but keep quiet about it so the anti firearm people are blissfully unaware and comfortable in their ignorance.
The anti firearm lobby in America, use Australia as an example to attempt to shame and deceive firearm owning Americans into allowing the second amendment to be overturned.
Most people will not watch anything longer than a Tik Tick clip these days. But they will read the title or headline then jump into the comment section and have all kinds of uninformed opinions. lol
I just watched it and will watch it again with friends and family. I was right on so many accounts over the years but obviously had no idea how deep everything goes.
They may not repeal it but they will chip at it year by year. Gun rights are only one generation away from extinction. It is our responsibility to be teaching new shooters and normalizing ownership.
Buy a Ruger 10/22 for training. It goes over all the basic principles of magazines, semi auto actions, and safety principles. I have educated over 15 new shooters with it. Afterwards I roll into handguns and eventually rifle caliber. First learn yourself if you don't know what you're doing.
Tips:
Training people will come naturally once you are experienced enough.
Make your new shooters rehearse the 4 firearm rules of safety BEFORE entering or going to the range.
Give your new shooters in-ear and over ear hearing protection. This will drastically improve comfort levels as most people can be SHOOK by the sound of a firearm. Even at outdoor ranges.
Start with 1 round in the mag. That's it. Even when starting with the 10/22. Show them how to use the firearm while exercising safety rules. Do the same when moving on to handguns, and then rifles. Work up to 3 rounds, and then 5-10.
Teach them to pray before each shot and to listen to Gods answers
Unless you're at the range, if you take the time to have this conversation before shooting, you may not have to pray for much longer—you can instead just walk right through the Pearly Gates and greet God personally :p

You're on the wrong forum if you think the cabal will still be in power 30 years from now.
So are you if you don't at least admit the possibility, and the never-ending need for vigilance. There is no permanent solution to evil.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from being extinguished by tyranny.
Correct. It won’t be the current puppets but there will always be evil actors in the world.

since we're in 5gw hot and heavy, if everyone is a combatant then everyone needs to have the full spectrum of capabilities. so i'm with you there.
This. The MIC and defense contractors are not effected in the slightest by civilian pistol and rifle sales.
I like where your heads at. Good post.

Sticky for the 2A Musketeer!! ;)
They never run out of money they just borrow more out of thin air and they only collect taxes to fight the inflation
If Hillary was allowed to win, we would have nothing today.

Sad.
I just watched it and will watch it again with friends and family. I was right on so many accounts over the years but obviously had no idea how deep everything goes.
It says the website has been seized by the US Government.
When the Central Banks institute their digital currency, they will program it to not allow the purchase of guns and ammo. Stock up now!

military sells powder?
Powder can't be a lucrative business otherwise people would be buying it instead of silver and GME shares.
Unless you're at the range, if you take the time to have this conversation before shooting, you may not have to pray for much longer—you can instead just walk right through the Pearly Gates and greet God personally :p
"Unless you're at the range", not "If you're at the range"
When a box of 45 ammo---50 rounds---is 40 bucks with tax, shooting is not that much fun although I do a lot of it!
When it comes to gunpowder, you are talking to Wiley Coyote so you can imagine the results I would get! KEK
