Does "Beto" O'Rourke Or ANY American Leftist Know The Last Time The US Government Tried To Take Away People's "Weapons Of War"?

No, it was not Lexington and Concord. It was an attempt to disarm a racial minority who felt they needed "weapons of war" to protect themselves.

Wounded Knee Massacre, December 29, 1890.

The result? Between 200 and 300 dead Miniconjou, Lakota and Hunkpapa including women and children and 25 US soldiers.

I guess "Beto" and those here who advocate the US governemnt "take away" "weapons of war" from law-abiding citizens with no criminal record missed that day in their HS history class.


I could very easily have also mentioned Ruby Ridge...

So what does the Left want? A thousand Wounded Knees? I think yes. But what they will get instead are ten thousand Concords.

Don't those who want to make guns illegal realize that would leave violent criminals heavily armed while their law abiding victims are left helpless to defend ourselves? Do they really want more gun violence? Beware the law of unintended consequences.

@StrictSouthernHOH Do they understand most crime is committed in POOR AREAS … so great, disarm poor blacks and whites so RICH black and white LEFTISTS with private ARMED security living behind WALLS (repeat after me Leftists - "Walls are RACIST!" Walls don't WORK!")in fortresses can feel good about themselves.

At the most basic level of your question, do you think that there are Americans that have weapons who intend to use them for unlawful purposes?

Are more thorough checks and vetting wrong? Surely this would not be a problem for the majority of firearms owners.

@jimmypopp I will quote you the great Ronnie Reagan -

"Most solutions are simple. Just few of them are easy."

@Abrienda I don't mean to be disrespectful. Or opinions don't align. You explain your out of view, I explain mine. Age and sex have nothing to do with it. Another distraction by you.
Abrienda · 26-30, F
@jimmypopp Oh really? ANOTHER? As opposed to your evasions? I am telling you how I feel and what you have again just made apparent. You have been unable to refute any of my points only switch topic or accuse me of what you yourself do (who first brought up places outside the USA then said they were not relevant to the USA...you or me?)

You either respect it or you don't. You have shown that you don't.

Our leftists foolishly underestimate the majority of us. We are a patriotic bunch, God, guns, family, and liberty are the cornerstone values for many of us. If the leftists tried to take our guns and freedom we would turn into Lexington and Concord on a nationwide scale. The left should know to never bet against the average American's patriotism.

I am so interested in the US 2nd Amendment because I have Jewish godparents and because those of us who are European right-populists see that amendment as the one that guarantees all the rest and want it ourselves.

I agree. They have no clue what they're even doing.
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@Abrienda Yeah and also one of my friends who is a Trump supported had said about how Trump is the first president in over a decade that isn't anti-semitic. And he said "How much longer must Jews who vote for democrats keep bending over for them and saying "Yes, daddy." ?"
Abrienda · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry God I don't know. I am not Jewish but have deep Jewish connections and can only say that those Jews who do that are no more Jewish than Bernie Sanders who is LESS Jewish than COLONEL Sanders was.
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@Abrienda Yeah. Bernie is a traitor to his people. What brought this up was when 2 of my jewish friends, both who voted for Trump btw, brought up when Trump said that Jews who vote democrat are traitors to their people and one of my jewish friends said "I totally agree with that." and then said what I mentioned in the previous comment. Bernie is a real traitor to his people, especially when he decided to take Linda Sarsour, an extremely insane anti-semitic conspiracy nutcase, to be his advisor. Someone who has said the most disgusting and abhorrant things about Jews.

Most lefties aren't smart enough to see what's really going on. Like Pavlov's dog, they just read the script.

You hit the nail right on the head.
