Sheriff Warns of Second American Revolution if Guns Are Banned (VIDEO)

How about one of you Lefties answer my question?
What part of, "Shall not be infringed" don't you understand??

No one's gonna take up arms and revolt if gun rights are curtailed. At the end of the day they'll just get drunk, bitch and moan, then fall asleep.

Been far more draconian measures adopted in the past that they threatened the same stuff they are now and nothing came of it. Sheriffs are elected politicians, he's just stirring the pot to get more votes.

Guns are not even remotely close to being banned.

Connecticut?

Same thing was being said about Queer marriage not very long ago!

Agreed. There was a time in America where such a thing may have been possible, but certainly not anymore.

There is no Constitutional Amendment specifically addressing same sex marriage as arms are by the Second Amendment.

As HBO's series "The Newsroom" rightly pointed out, every time someone claims the government's gonna ban your guns, gun sales spike, and campaign donations to anti gun control politicians go through the roof.

Don't believe the hype.

Rather than believing everything you read, do what journalists do and get at least 3 different un-related sources (preferably sources which hate one another.) Then you'll know what's actually going on.

Same thing on the war on women, cutting school lunch, yada yada yada

Gay people have never been banned from marrying one another. Their marriage simply was recognized by the state. Eventually government realized they couldn't discriminate against gays.

The part about well regulated militias

That's a good thing. We need more anti-gun control politicians. Go NRA!

Guns are so closely "regulated" in some jurisdictions which tantamounts to banning:

Update On The Mr. Filippidis, Maryland Concealed Carry Driver Incident…

Following our public records request (actually, on the same day) the Maryland Transportation Authority Police (MDTA) posted the following statement on their FaceBook Page:

In response to a recent complaint about the Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) Police and a Jan. 12, 2014, Tampa Tribune article, a preliminary review indicates that all proper protocols were followed throughout the Dec. 30, 2013, 55-minute traffic stop on I-95, which was initiated for a speeding violation. The MDTA takes these allegations seriously and will continue to investigate this personnel matter. (link)

As we wait for the records of the incident it’s interesting to note the position of the MTA.

If “proper protocols were followed” then why did the MDTA Chief and Internal Affairs apologize to Mr. Filippidis? Also, if “proper protocols were followed” then why then is this a “personnel matter“?"

Compared to other countries, we are no where close to having gun bans. Wanna see a not-banned but very nearly example go look at Japan's regs.

Good article here with very brief summary of Japanese gun laws and related issues:

Amusing line, "Even the Yakuza tend to forgo guns except for a few exceptions."

 

[O.R.I.O.N]

Guns are not banned in CT.

Legislation/Registration/Confiscation. Already 2/3rds of the way there.

Do any of you gun owners hold rank in the well-regulated militia?

 

[O.R.I.O.N]

Citizens ARE the well regulated militia.
