Are we crying wolf

I had things like OSHA and welfare in mind. The AWB didn't get resent rather it was allowed to sunset. I hope and pray that the next AWB will either have a sunset or the 'loyal opposition' will resend it like some believe, but I'm pessimistic.

When you had Bill Ruger, of all people, offering up his own ideas on gun control, how can we trust the GOP to reverse something that a lot of them probably don't care too much about anyway.

Some of them surely whisper to each other, "Who needs AR-15s and hi cap magazines anyway?". I think a lot of those blue-blood country-club-types aren't gunnies like us and they just don't understand why we aren't willing to once again, move the line in the sand.
 
Before Obama took office, I used to think all the guys yelling about how he was going to turn the US into 1960's USSR were delusional. Now - a little more than one short month later I feel differently. At this point I would say anything is possible. Anything.
 
Just a reminder to keep this discussion centered around RKBA issues; general poly ticks is still verboten.

Thanks, all. :)
 
Lets say someone just got off a 12 hour shift, had to walk the dog, make the coffee, get clothes ready for next 12 hour shift, in 10 hours- try to fall asleep, and concentrate on family issues, here in Florida do the best thing possible for our rights, yet keeping a sense of balance, WHAT IS THE NEXT CORRECT STEP TO LETTING MY PALM BEACH OFFICIALS KNOW I AM AGAINST A BAN WHILE I HAVE A FEW FREE MINUTES ON COMPUTER?
Thanks
 
are they going to try? well, duh! of course they are going to try. it is up to us to make such a big stink that they have to stop. post #25 has got it at least partially right. if they do not hear from us, they are going to do anything they think they can get away with. call, or better yet, write every govenment official you can and do your best to CLAMLY explain to them that you oppose all anti-firearm legislation. "we the people" need to be heard from! if we do nothing, it will end up costing us dearly. i really do not want to go to the point of them "prying it from my cold dead hands!" if we can avoid it.
 
To change it more of us pro 2nd Amendment Constitutionalist have to be part of the political machine, the ones that help turn the gears. Younger is better, get involved with say a local Republican chapter and move up. It takes years and dedication. In a nut shell that's what the socialist did within the Democrat party.
 
Having GIVEN 80 percent of our jobs overseas . . .

American Corporations have caused most of our current misery. American jobs sent to foreign lands, including Communist countries had to eventually affect America. DUH! Chinese employees can barely assemble anything without cross-threading the screws. Why do we accept such incompetence? Cheapness is the only reason. Is our ability to do things right properly compensated by cheap, imported junk? Our schools and colleges teach the proper way to manufacture, yet we manufacture nearly nothing. Maybe we can send all our educated youth to foreign countries to teach them how to do things right! cliffy
 
No Surprise

It does not surprise me that BO and his cabinet are pushing to change firearms laws. I planned ahead, thankfully. Considering how fast he rammed his spending bill through Congress and signed it into law, this shouldn't come as a shock.

It is important that we contact CONGRESS and let them know not to let this even come to a floor vote. Join the NRA, if you haven't already. Buy as many magazines as possible, and if you've got the money, buy a good AR-15.

This Chicago trash is going to trash the whole country at a rapid pace.

I find it funny that Holder refuses to enforce federal law against pot dispenseries in California, because CA law allows it, but wants to ram California law on the rest of America with new gun laws. Pot is not a legal right, but firearms are. If BO wants to let people smoke pot, change fed law....but then again he thinks he can do anything without Congress.

[Commence off-topic rant]This is off topic, but needs to be said: It isn't the corporations as much as it's the climate they've been forced to operate in thanks to liberal, socialist, greenie-weenie advances. Opportunities for success are thwarted here. Successful companies and individuals are bled of their wealth and earning power to support these liberal-instituted socialist programs and greenie-weenie environmental restrictions.

The Kangaroo Rat is thriving while we're about to head for the soup kitchens and bread lines. OPEC nations thrive while we freeze in the winter and roast in the summer all for the lack of using our own abundant resources.

Maybe if the liberals put in enough gun control, they'll be voted out and common sense conservatism shall reign and put liberalism out of its misery - the misery it wishes to spread out across the land. [Close off-topic rant]

CC have you been following the news lately.....They're all in the same shi**er as the everyone else.

In point of fact, as almost all of the OPEC Sovereign Investment Funds were all very heavily weighted towards US T-Bills and they're generally one product economies they're in a worse state than many others.
