If they get their way, only 2/7 of my guns would be legal (the revolver and the 1953 lever action), so that would take 5 of mine personally. You are in denial if you think I'm going for that.
Idk I just think to myself:
Do I like my guns? Yes. Do I want to sell them? No.
Do I value having all of the guns that I want MORE than I want affordable healthcare with price caps for insulin and women having choices in their reproductive health? More than public options with regulations for my my utilities? More than I value equality under the law for everyone, and not having the bible shoved up my ass in a way that friends my friends can't get married or my sister can't adopt?
No. I don't.
It would suck if they were illegal and you had to sell, but no one is coming to knock on your door and take them, so surrender or move or whatever would be up to you. Not all democrats want Chicago style gun control.
Nice whataboutism but we're talking about gun control in this thread.
Is that not exactly what we were talking about?
Disarm still is the wrong word because it's never going to happen that there's a door to door collection with house searches. Legality is where you went, and I followed I thought?
Did you have a facet if the issue you wanted to circle back to?
Disarm is still thr right word if they don't go door to door but instead offer prison sentances for failure to comply and surrender them. That's literally how the actual 1930s nazis disarmed the jewish population of post weimar germany.
