You know darn well that allowing a silencer on guns would never happen. I also remember you saying that nobody was trying to take our guns away, well you were wrong on that too because they tried. MCLAUGHLIN: NY SAFE FIRST 'ACT' IN GUN-GRAB PLAN
Dems intent on confiscation, registration, microstamping, according to wish list
Assemblyman Steve McLaughlin (R,C,I-Melrose) today revealed a 15-point anti-Second Amendment wish list that Democrats lobbied to be included in the final New York Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement (NY SAFE) Act. McLaughlin called the list the "second phase" of a gun-grab agenda targeting responsible firearm owners that downstate politicians have been supporting for years.
“First the new gun-control bill made criminals out of law-abiding New Yorkers. And the radical, anti-Second Amendment proposals outlined in this wish list suggest the second phase of the plan: confiscation,” said McLaughlin. “When downstate politicians criminalize responsible gun ownership, they only empower criminals.”
Highlights from the anti-Second Amendment wish list include:
confiscation of all firearms labeled "assault weapons" statewide firearms registry microstamping of all guns in New YorkState individual possession and purchase limits on firearms, ammunition
McLaughlin also noted that several recent pieces of legislation include provisions found in the wish list: S1422 (2013), S572 (2013), S1572 (2013), S1804 (2013), A4025 (2011-12), A6774 (2011-12) and S3341 (2011-12).
“As a dad, my heart goes out to those families victimized by senseless violence. This is a time for all New Yorkers to come together to find solutions to the tragic loss of life in Newtown, Webster and elsewhere,” said McLaughlin. “Governor Cuomo said he wanted to move forward ‘intelligently’ and ‘prudently.’ Responsible gun owners must be part of this conversation, not the debate's scapegoat.
“The wish list hatched by downstate politicians and pushed by their allies in Albany ignores the criminal gun trafficking which brings illegal firearms into New York and turns a blind eye to the social disorganization and family breakdown spawning new criminals and destroying communities across the Empire State.”
Assemblyman McLaughlin represents the 107th District, which consists of parts of Rensselaer, Columbia and Washington counties. For more information, please visit Assemblyman McLaughlin’s official website.
No Shadow... JUST MORE OF THE NRA WITH BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS. You obviously didn't read the link:
the NRA doesn't have blood on it's hands....GENERATIONS OF HUMANS HAVE BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS...and that includes yours that is also one that rocks the cradle....
having a scapegoat doesn't rid you of your humanity
using guns in the military put $$ on the table having guns at home put $$ on the table voting for WHICH EVER PARTY put $$ on the table
every god(government or otherwise) requires a scapegoat and expiation
what did Jesus say about the NRA-----NOTHING
BUT HE DID SAY---They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, "All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!"
AND WE FIND THIS
And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
AND WE FIND THIS
Adam lay with his wife again, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, "God has granted me another child in place of Abel, since Cain killed him."
I'm not goin' all religious on you, but just pointing out that the scenarios are the same as the leaders of the free world.
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

Sens. Mark Kirk (R-Ill.) and Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) are collaborating on legislation to expand requirements on background checks to purchase firearms.
Kirk has long backed an assault weapons ban and is one of the most pro-gun control Republican senators. Manchin, who is a lifetime member of the National Rifle Association, has also emerged as a key player in the current gun control debate. He's called for a wide-ranging discussion of how to cut down on gun violence including new firearm restrictions, and on Thursday morning came out in favor of increased background checks.

Another ideologically confused American. Only government schools are permitted to threaten underperforming children with detention, expulsion, and failing grades. If he was a "right winger" he should have been happy his child wasn't testing well and regurgitating the state indoctrination. If not happy at least indifferent to it.
