      When “assault rifles” are banned by the Congress and President Trump signs the bill, Trump moonies will decide it’s OK if Trump supports it, just as Obama moonies accepted everything Obama did without question.

      These are communist up there and I don’t care what the FK they say about anything. And this is exactly why you must remain ARMED, ironically.

      They will look to any excuse, any event of even one peep of a firecracker to disarm you and is nothing more than a CON game to get you separated from your weapon.

      The trick is to IGNORE them from the buyer, to the seller, to the manufacturer. And I mean EVERY buyer and seller of guns in this country. There is no such thing as police, agent, etc.

      EVERYONE is considered a buyer and a seller. And need to IGNORE the communist up there and exercise their 2nd Amendment. You can own as much and ANY weapon you want. From a bazooka to a tank and everything in-between.

      Remember, the key is to IGNORE them and they have NO power over you, or your weapons which is actually REQUIRED of them to ARM YOU – The citizen.

      Instead, they seek to arm themselves and their SLUGS – the unconstitutional police FARCE and the made-up federal agents. But this country is NOT made up of them. It’s made up of you! The constitutional American citizen. :cool:
