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.
