I don’t know. You could get some self righteous Bible study group leader who moronically believes the US is a Christian nation.

Their utter lack of understanding of history and the first amendment is just as bad as some illiberals lack of understanding of history and the second amendment.
The Sunday school teacher is just much less offensive to me then the self appointed liberal know it all

Reference: the streets
Less threat of pedophilia in the lib.

The Sunday school teacher elected to national office who self-righteously believes that the USA is a Christian nation and wants to place the bible equal with or ahead of the Constitution is a greater threat to the Republic than a self-appointed liberal know-it-all.

That Sunday school teacher might also do nothing for "the streets" because they and/or their bigoted followers believe that the minorities who live on "the streets" are nothing more than animals who are living as they want/should.

A defiant Santos spoke with reporters after the House vote, saying that this not a victory for him, but rather a victory for due process. He said a vote to expel him would have been silencing my voters.
The hypocrisy will be rich indeed if they kick tlaib out after giving santos a pass and bitching about marge getting kicked off committees.

Who is George Santos and why is he in trouble?
The 35-year-old lawmaker is facing dozens of federal charges, including wire fraud, aggravated identity theft and conspiracy to commit offenses against the United States.

An admitted "terrible liar", Mr Santos has been dogged by allegations of falsehoods and fraud throughout his brief career on Capitol Hill.

A non-existent real estate portfolio, fraudulent claims of college degrees and confusion over whether he's Jewish - or merely "Jew-ish" - were just some of the controversies the New York Republican faced before he was even sworn into office. He even reportedly claimed to donors that he helped produce the infamous Spider-Man musical on Broadway - he didn't.

Donks will hold on to the Virginia Senate and possibly pick up a seat.

Currently, it's a 90% chance they'll also win back the Virginia House.

This is proof that the lunatic fringe isn't anywhere near the size of the noise they make - and also a preview of the national election next year - the wackadoodlian wing will make a big noise all year and then underperform in the election. Should have left Roe v Wade alone..... :ohno:

1 trigger squeeze = 1 round

I said over 100 million gun owmers. The below says atleast 80+ million gun owners.
https://americangunfacts.com/gun-ownership-statistics/
Even going with that lower # and excluding revolvers, semi auto shotguns, and .22s and smaller (like .17), the majority of those 80 million gun owners own firearms (semi auto handguns, MSRs, milsurps (hello Garands) etc), that would fall under your idiotiic scheme.

BATF only processes a few hundred thousand NFA Class 3 a years where applicants have to wait months. Despite your idiotic claim to the contrary, no ATF couldn’t handle having to process 60-70 million at once.

Even if ATF could do it (they couldn’t) tens of millions wouldn’t comply.

Unconstitutionally limiting to 5 rounds while imposing an undue burden (its a application packet with $200 fee and months long wait). ZERO % chance of being allowed by this court. (See Heller and Bruen)

You don’t like semi auto weapons that hold more than 5 rounds, then don’t buy one. 99.9% of Americans who own them don’t committ crimes with them, and there’s no reason those folks shouldn’t be allowed to own them without an undue burden.

Amend the Constitution or STFU.
Irrelevant to the Constsitutioness of the proposal. There will be an amnesty period while you get your shit in order and your background checked.

Its each individuals choice whether they want to get legal or use the buyback program or ignore the law. If you can't do the time....

There is nothing unconstitutional about it -if there were every duck hunter in the nation would be a victim of the oppressor :lol: :coffee:
You’re clearly delusional, and clearly haven’t read the text of Bruen, if you think this SCOTUS wouldn’t rule your scheme unconstitutional. :nod:

Besides the fact, tens of millions of gun owners would give the middle finger to your leftist, hairbrained proposal of wah wah wah most guns carry too many bullets for my leftist sensitivities,

But go ahead and continue to look like an idiot by continuing to insist on a scheme that has a ZERO % chance politically, through the courts, or practically, of happening. :dunce:
