Trump if he is a leader needs to do something and gun control is not it.

Don’t agree with the media part, but the problem is best described as an inverse relationship to the atomic bomb.

We drop it, and since that day world wide War and genocide has been decreased by 10 fold.

Take God, The Ten Commandments, Dads, and Families our of the picture and 10 fold is what you get.

What would you propose he do Boco? He's blocked just about every direction he tries to go? He could propose war on LEO like the last commander in chief.

The time to start stocking up was 3 to 4 years ago. Prices have been at record lows and inventory falling off the shelf. A complete AR15 could be had for around $300 and 9mm ammo at $.17 a round. Anyone who saw the gun/ammo panic of 2012/2013 should already be "stocked up ". Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice......

Wade I don't know the answer.I just believe if he has good leadership skills he will come out a winner at the next election.
If he goes the gun control route he will alienate his base and lose the next election.
If he does nothing,there will be the fence sitters and likely some of his current supporters that will abandon him and he will lose the next election.
He has to come up with some kind of solution that will encourage his base and also be enough for the fence sitters and weaker supporters to have faith in his leadership.
I see it as a crucial test of his leadership skills.I pay no attention to the lefties who are against everything he does,and he should not worry about them either.

I used to hunt ducks. I was limited to three shots in my magazine.
I was stationed in West Germany on a missile site. My M-16 clip was limited to 20 rounds.
Why does anyone need a 30 round capacity clip in an assault rifle?
And why does anyone need an assault rifle unless they want to kill people?
There are better rifles for less money.

You'll get your answer when dawn comes to the eastern time zone.

Not to be rude, and I hope your just trolling, but so much ignorance in your post.

My M16A2 fired from a magazine, not sure how yours fired from a "clip".

An assault rifle has full auto capabilities and is restricted in the US except for Class 3 license holders , and the weapons themselves cost $15,000 to $40,000 in todays market. Military style weapons are semi auto and are used for hunting, target shooting, collecting, and home defense.

It's not about "need", it's about my constitutional right to own a firearm. If not 30 rounds , 20 ? 10 ? 5 ? who decides ?

I'm sure the 6 million Jews killed in the Holocaust or the 20 million Russians and Ukrainians killed in the 1920's and 30's would be good examples of someone who "need an assault rifle". You don't "need" a car to get to work, you can ride a bike, much safer for other people, right ?

"Better" how ? Guns are like tools each has it's own purpose , right tool for the right job.

Love this reply !

Well we have seen this kind of mass hysteria before. People get all wound up by news stories and start screaming for the government to save them. What happens is less liberty. No one is any safer than before they agreed to become less a citizen and more a subject.

Fear resulting from the Valentines day massacre gave the NFA. Fear of the Black Panthers gave us the gun control act of 68.

Clintons semi ban came after a school got shot up

I expect a national registry. Semis will become a class 3 firearm. IF we go along with it there will follow a national registry of ALL firearms and a licensing program including tax/fees to pay for it all. NRA is going to tell you its for your own good. Time to appease the left so they will allow you to keep your grandads shotgun.

Not only is fear being fostered in the unarmed nervous urbanites its being fostered in gun owners. We are about to be told again, that this new bill does not violate your right to be armed. That instead it protects your right to own them. That this slight inconvenience will make people safer and allow you to keep your guns.

You will be told to go along or lose your guns to government confiscation.

Danny if my R-Senators go along with it, they'll lose my vote and I've let them know that. Hopefully gun owners in other states will do the same. The fear of being relieved of their power/notoriety is a powerful motivator. They lose their base and unemployment is sure to follow.

A politician's Number one concern is reelection. They will go which ever way they see as their best for reelection. Right now they are all looking to see which way the gun control winds are blowing.

I'm not scared "shirtless" and neither is anybody else in my family, my friends, and the circle of people that I work with on a regular basis. I'll admit that I'm tired of the hyped-up hyperbole that seems to be constant from some so-called "news" outlets on cable TV.

Do you really believe the Dems would stop with eliminating just those?!!!

whether you like it or not sometimes people need killing. There are multiple stories every day of children being kidnapped, women being raped, home invasions, car jackings, muggings, murder and assault.

Do you REALLY want the government to tell what you are allowed to arm yourself with?


You could always move to a safer country, like Mexico. Great Britain has very strict firearm laws. Even knife and screwdriver laws.

Yeah, and this is from one of our own here on tman. When our own people start buying into the lie, I wonder how we can succeed. Usually when I look where these people live....it is a blue state, why is that? They have bought into the BS because they are closer to the hysterics. Get a clue folks, or the second will be gone before you know it.

I agree with Boco. The problem is not with guns, but within "society" itself. If the intent is there and guns are unavailable there are many other methods. Look at the Kansas City bombing or driving a truck into a crowd. We need Bipartisan thinking from our best minds, not politics. We don't need anti gunners like Schummer or the NRA at the opposite end screaming at each other. I am an avid gun owner, but I no longer belong to the NRA. Their extreme thinking is not for me. By the same token politicans trying to get elected by being anti gun turns me off as well.
Trump did not cause those shootings and it is not his alone to solve the problem. I see no need for ownership of those big military type weapons, but I'm against any type of confiscation.. I don't have all of the answers. Who is to say that I'm incompetent, crazy, or shouldn't own a gun? At least one of those guns was purchased legally.The problem is not the guns, the problem is people.

In case you missed it. It is illegal in Britain to carry a screwdriver without a permit. Is this what we want?

I'm not saying 3 mass shootings in a week should be normal, but in the grand scheme of things, they're being reported on more heavily than other deaths because it feeds the left's gun grabbing agenda. The US doesn't lead the world in mass shootings or gun violence, but that's not what the media wants you to think. More people are killed by knives than rifles each year. More people are killed with fists and feet than rifles each year.

You can't make a law to get rid of evil intentions. I hope it doesn't happen, but what if high capacity semi-auto rifles are done away with and someone heck-bent on killing a bunch of people instead resorts to filling a van with explosives or driving an SUV through a parade or marathon?

Just remember if you don't vote for one side you are voting for the other.
