Feinstein begins this new term in the Senate in the same way she did her first term…Seeking to restrict and ultimately end your right to own a gun. There’s no other way to put it. That’s her goal and she made that very clear way back in the 1990s.
Dianne Feinstein Gun ban in 1995 – She wanted to Ban all guns, Force turn in
So what’s in this ban? As written, it specifically bans 158 firearms. But, it ultimately bans the manufacture of any modern firearm with anything deemed a “military” feature. Pistol grips, thumb-hole stocks, adjustable/collapsing/folding stocks, flash suppressors, etc. Unlike the previous ban, there is no expiration date…she learned her lesson. Now, the media, playing their part, is quick to point out that over 2000 firearms are specifically “protected” by this bill to get law-abiding gun owners to go along with the program. This brings us back to the idea that your guns for hunting are OK (for now) and that if you’ll just cooperate, you won’t be bothered.
Folks, even if you don’t own anything on this list or anything like it, this affects you. We live in a country that has authorized the killing of its own citizens and indefinite detention without trial. Silly arguments about what are we going to do against an army with nuclear weapons are just that, silly. The country will never use nuclear weapons on its own soil so you can throw that one out. But, there may come a time again, as it has occurred in the past when one or more of us finds himself in a group of “undesirables” being rounded up for detention or simply shot on sight by men and women who are just following orders as so many Nazi war criminals have said in defense of their actions. Don’t think that because you aren’t on a list now that you won’t be in the future. We as free people need to stand up for each other or watch our individual rights go down the drain with each new election cycle.
