Read up on "ex post facto". What you suggest will never happen. Or we come up with laws or regulations that will pass the constitutional test rather than waste our time with pipe dreams. Laws PASSED BY CONGRESS (not by pen and phone) that specifically limit who can purchase such weapons or any weapons. Improved background checks. Training requirements, etc. As for buybacks, there are estimated 10 million AR-15 "style" weapons in the US. If Soros, Hollywood and Silicon Valley put their money together maybe they could make an attractive program. P They can come up with some kind of buy back program if they really wanted to. Tax breaks, money back, whatever. How much money is wasted overseas and we can't come up with a buy back program to get these guns out the american public's hands? I agree it will never happen either because the NRA controls the GOP. I'm all for everything you mentioned in the second paragraph in addition to the AR15 style ban (which i know won't happen). I'd love to at least see gun ownership treated like getting a driver's license and owning/selling cars, but we can't even have that. As of right now, nothing is being done except making the laws even more lenient. We're going in the opposite direction of gun control and things are worse now more than ever. The NRA doesn't want gun control, so nothing is going to pass. You know who's responsible for that, don't you? Go ahead and say his name.

Not just one. Everyone with the power to make laws then and now are responsible. Everyone throwing money at people that have the power to make laws are responsible.

Yes, a lot of people were responsible for setting back race relations in this country from 09-16 🙄 but I'm thinking of one in particular. I think you know who I'm referring to.

Don't act like the new guy is any better. Never said he was, so please don't put words in my mouth. I think he's a divisive asshole and didn't vote for him, but he's done more in his first year than our first half white president did in eight years.

What is the difference between semi automatic ammunition in single shot ammunition Do we also ban the Mini 14 which is capable of similar use but does not look as scary bc it is not black? Thats racist! Black Guns Matter

Liberals: This presidential regime is nothing but fascists. Dangerous fascists. Also Liberals: I want this dangerous fascist regime to take away guns. I do trust the dangerous fascists with that. Show me at any point in history where a dangerous fascist regime scaling back rights of the population ever turned out bad. Wow you make an excellent fuckin point. Seriously

Trump is an embarrassment to the office he holds. Now you go. Oh common. He hasn't even toppled his first dictator, destabilized a region and created a refugee crisis yet. He still has time to win people over. Im hopeful for NK.

Trump is an embarrassment to the office he holds. Now you go. Why other than the tweeting is he an embarrassment? Sadly the tweeting is a catch 22. If he didn't have his voice on twitter we would probably have president Hillary now. The media constantly spins or out right lies regarding him so twitter is his only voice. He has accomplished a lot in his first year despite the media and his own party fighting him tooth and nail to maintain the status quo. Do I wish he would stop with a lot of what he says on Twitter, sure, but he isn't an embarrassment. If the media focused on his positives or even showed them now and then rather than maintaining this caricature of him maybe things could calm down.

I must be the only one who actually LIKES that he gets on twitter and talks shit. Then it would seem he also backs it up. Gotta respect that. Lets hope he really is one of the good guys... certainly better than the alternative tho

Lets hope he really is one of the good guys... certainly better than the alternative tho There have been a few tweets that have made me cringe but honestly anything is better than the antiAmerican, antiWhite BS Obama used to spout. Have we all forgotten how divisive he was? He set race relations back decades, stifled our economy, was caught (this is called evidence) colluding with the Russians on a hot mic, politicized the IRS and FBI, Operation Fast and Furious, supporting the Muslim Brotherhood over our allies... but yeah he was politically correct and the media loved him and not only ignored but buried all of this so people parrot the media line.

And yet the one person I quoted actually talked badly of him as a person despite support for his policies. I'll join in; I think he comes across as buffoonish and isn't witty enough to talk off the cuff. Like JT said, you're turn, acolyte.
