The flaw with Matt's plan on gun control.......the actor doesn't know what he is talking about...

[2aguy]

This is exactly why Matt is wrong......

Who would administer, for example, the background checks and red flag laws that “common sense” gun restricters propose? Would it be the same government that fabricated evidence in a FISA Court proceeding to secure a wiretap to spy on Carter Page for the crime of supporting a politician the FBI opposed?


Would it be the same FBI that hatched a plot to kidnap the Michigan governor, with that truth only coming out during the prosecution of four of the Americans entrapped in the scheme?

Would it be the same government that besieged and burned down a building full of women and children in 1993 in Waco, Texas? Would it be the same government that told the world that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and that was why we needed to start a lengthy war there?

Would it be the same local, state, and federal officials who allowed Antifa and Black Lives Matter activists to destroy countless homes and businesses in dozens of cities, set White House buildings on fire, attack federal courthouses, burn police precincts to the ground, destroy historical markers, and commit other destruction under the guise of “mostly peaceful” protesting?

And which police organizations and officials would be involved in these “common sense” gun restrictions? Would it be men such as Derek Chauvin, convicted of murdering George Floyd?


Would it be the same police department in Uvalde, Texas, that stood by while children were being murdered and, instead of stopping it, prevented parents from rescuing children?

It would be nuts to hand the power to restrict gun rights to institutions that have deliberately destroyed the rule of law in this country.

Frankly, who the hell cares about this asshole actor's politics? The dude is trying to stay relevant.

The ONLY thing that will reduce the number of fatalities in school shootings will be the SERIOUS hardening of security in the schools. It isn't rocket science but it will be expensive and the DC crowd frankly doesn't CARE how many die because it gives them leverage against 2A.
The red flag abominations that are apt to flow from Uvalde will usher in a full-on assault on the rights of gun owners as well as the censorship of outspoken 2A supporters. Anyone who thinks RFs won't be used to punish and censor innocent people is either dumb or complicit.
They will keep pushing until they finally convince themselves they are strong enough to mandate confiscation on a wide scale. What follows will be worse than anything they can imagine.

We're talking about this guy, right?

When was the last time you heard anyone that argues against the very simple language of the 2A that knows what they're talking about regarding the subject?

Take Elon Musk for example. Almost everything I've heard from the guy is agreeable to me. When it comes to 2A related matters, not so much and it's because he is not an expert in law, and isn't a part of the community.

I think he is very much aware of why the right exists, and certainly doesn't want the right of his protective detail diminished, so he isn't real vocal on the issue.

Here is the bottom line about the last two major hyped up incidents.

No laws being proposed would have made a difference. No laws that exist would have made a difference.

THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CRIMINAL LAW THAT CARRIES THE HIGHEST PENALTY IN ALL CRIMINAL STATUE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD ARE LAWS THAT CRIMINALIZE MURDER. THESE LAWS WERE IGNORED BECAUSE CRIMINALS IGNORE LAWS.

Lemme say that again, just so bed wetters might absorb it....

THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CRIMINAL LAW THAT CARRIES THE HIGHEST PENALTY IN ALL CRIMINAL STATUE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD ARE LAWS THAT CRIMINALIZE MURDER.THESE LAWS WERE IGNORED BECAUSE CRIMINALS IGNORE LAWS.

Just for shits and grins... let me repeat that one more motherfucking time because bed wetting leftists are autistic jabbering lunatics in red this time since it's a color that attracts them.

THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CRIMINAL LAW THAT CARRIES THE HIGHEST PENALTY IN ALL CRIMINAL STATUE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD ARE LAWS THAT CRIMINALIZE MURDER.THESE LAWS WERE IGNORED BECAUSE CRIMINALS IGNORE LAWS.

Let's pretend the FAIRY FUCKING GODMOTHER OF BED WETTING LIBERALS came and waved a magic dildo so that all guns and ammo on earth disappeared off the face of the entire earth.

These psychopath mother fuckers would have drove through a crowd, created a flame thrower, mixed a poisonous agent then delivered it as an aerosol or simply gathered the ingredients for black powder which can be found for free in nature and created bombs in order to maximize their casualties.

Let's also just imagine that if the media did not harp on these events for weeks and give these psychopaths weeks and even months worth of coverage that there might just be less of these monstrous acts.
