It is here: Court ruling paves way for mass confiscation of firearms in AmericaBy Alex Thomas Shockingly, the court ruled that nearly all of the most drastic gun control law in the history of the United States did not violate the Second Amendment and is therefore constitutional. Thats right,a law passed in the wake of Sandy Hook that included and paved the way for confiscation of millions of legally purchased firearms has been ruled constitutional with proponents already calling for a similar law to be enacted at the federal level. As an article published by the American Thinker noted, If the SAFE Act is upheld by the Supreme Court, nothing prevents Congress from summarily outlawing tens of millions of firearms overnight. Once those firearms become contraband, the government may confiscate and destroy them without compensating the owner (just as the government confiscates and destroys illegal drugs). The Second Circuits decision leaves the Second Amendment in its gravest peril ever. Second Amendment rights are now hanging by a one-vote margin in the same Supreme Court that upheld Obamacare and declared a national right to gay marriage. Constitutional conservatives and Second Amendment supporters ought to be terrified over the prospect of Justice Scalia having a heart attack during a Hillary Clinton presidency. (And as we know Clinton is calling for mass confiscation herself) In the weeks since the most recent mass shooting in the country, literally dozens of mainstream publications have promoted Australia as the country to look towards when consideringnew gun control laws in America. Despite the fact that for years gun control groups and anti-gun liberals have claimed that they only want common sense gun control, news outlets such as Salon and Slate are once againopenly praising Australias controversial 1996 gun control law, a law that included a mandatory gun buyback program under the threat of government force. After the Oregon school shooting, highly trafficked liberal news outlet Slate republished an article praising Australias gun control law that was originally released in the wake of the Sandy Hook massacre. In the weekssince the recent shooting the article has become the top read report on the siteas well aslinked by dozens of other liberal news outlets. (emphasis mine) On April 28, 1996, a gunman opened fire on tourists in a seaside resort in Port Arthur, Tasmania. By the time he was finished, he had killed 35 people and wounded 23 more. It was the worst mass murder in Australias history. Twelve days later, Australias government did something remarkable. Led by newly elected conservative Prime Minister John Howard, it announced a bipartisan deal with state and local governments to enact sweeping gun-control measures. A decade and a half hence, the results of these policy changes are clear: They worked really, really well. At the heart of the push was a massive buyback of more than 600,000 semi-automatic shotguns and rifles, or about one-fifth of all firearms in circulation in Australia. The countrys new gun laws prohibited private sales, required that all weapons be individually registered to their owners, and required that gun buyers present a genuine reason for needing each weapon at the time of the purchase. (Self-defense did not count.) In the wake of the tragedy, polls showed public support for these measures at upwards of 90 percent. Like most other articles praising Australias gun laws, the author of the Slate article completely leaves out the fact that the buyback program was mandatorywhich means that anyone that refused to go along with the program was subject to government raids and or violence. Remember, these are the same liberals who claim that they do not want to take away all guns while literally writing articles promoting a gun law that not only included gun confiscation but also banned purchasing guns for use in self-defense! Another recent article published in the mainstream press, this time by CNN, dreamed of disarming all Americans while calling forbanning all gunsonce and for all. The article, written byliberal poet andMiddlebury College professorJay Parini, was a perfect example of how on one hand gun control advocates and their media allies tell the public that they only want common sense reform while on the other they are pushing for a full-scale ban. Parini gets to the crux of his and the many who share his views on the lefts agenda which is the confiscation of millions of legally owned firearms under the threat of government attack and subsequent outlawing of all handguns and rifles. Let me dream for a moment: I would much prefer to live in a country where only hunters who pass appropriately strict tests for mental competence and a knowledge of gun safety can still acquire rifles that are appropriate for hunting. Handguns and assault rifles would be banned, period. Banned. Period. There you have it folks, CNN letting a hard left authoritarian use their platform to dream about disarming America. It gets worse. So lets get rid of guns in this country, once and for all, making it a felony to possess a handgun or assault rifle. Over a period of years, illegal guns will gradually disappear. Guns dont kill people, as they say. People who acquire guns legally or illegally do. And we should make it extremely difficult for them to get their hands on these weapons. Not only are the mainstream media and gun control advocates pushing for a mass confiscation plan in the United States, they are also making it clear that they have no problem with gun owners being shot whichwould be alikely and obvious outcome if the government decided to outlaw millions of firearms overnight. Just days ago, author andCoppin State University writing teacherD. Watkins published an article on the prominent hard left news outlet Salon.com that called for all gun owners to be shot if they wanted to use their 2nd Amendment right. Starting out the article with the writers dreams of charging five thousand dollars per bullet, Watkins then makes his position on gun ownership in America startlingly clear. (emphasis mine) Rock was definitely on point, $5000 bullets would be great but Id take it a step furtherI believe that being shot should be requirement for gun ownership in America. Its very simple. You need to have gun, like taking selfies with pistols, cant live with out it? Then take a bullet and you will be granted the right to purchase the firearm of your choice. If we could successfully implement this rule, I guarantee the mass shootings will stop. Watching cablenews now in days makes me physically ill. Week in and week out we are forced to learn about another coward, who cant stand to deal with the same rejection that most of us face so they strap themselves with guns and then cock and spray at innocent people. Heartbroken survivors and family member images go viral, as our elected officials remain clueless. So there you have it. A court has upheld a New York law that paves the way for mass confiscation in America while at the same time the mainstream media is pushing this plan for confiscation and making it clear that if gun owners have to be shot to achieve this agenda then so be it. The one question that remains is whether or not the American people will stand by as their 2nd Amendment right is openly destroyed right before their very eyes.

That would place them without any of the protections afforded American citizens by the constitution they seem so desperately to hate. May God save us from those who propose to save us from ourselves. Who do they think they are, that they have the right to deny ME my rights. That is as Anti-American as it gets! Guns dont kill people, People Kill people So lets get rid of People God please save us from these delusional libtards!!!! Violating the constitutional rights of law abiding citizens will NOT stop gun (or any kind of) violence. A societal respect for human life, fathers in the households and no longer glorifying the thug culture will. What it WILL do is force american citizens to arm themselves and fight this type of tyranical govt. I think gun confiscation is a great thing. Lets start with the police and the military. OK? I said Secret Service should be first! Yeah, mandatory background checks for police first!! Drug test the pigs. All Law Enforcement agencies do background check on all the applicants. First they have to pass the Law Enforcement academy. Then they have to pass the State exam. Now thats an idea. That should stop about 99 percent of the killing. Keep in mind that the designers and implementers of the agenda in play do not care about our constitutional rights. The elites see the constitution as a piece of paper with no more value than a piece of paper, so we can all cry to the high heavens that they are violating our rights, but they have already decided that we have no rights. And theyre right. What to as people with no rights is the issue at hand. Correction: what to DO as people with no rights is the issue at hand Edomite Bolshevik Jews want your guns to annihilate you like they did in 1917 Russia. Yes! When I tell people similar, they call me anti-Semite. Israeli Jews have infiltrated and control American Gentile Goyim already. The only rights that exist are those youre willing to fight and die for. LOL. We have no rights now because everyone is to busy cleaning their little guns. Yep! Absolutely right Dirty Dave ! Its just that simple. Not easy but simple. .or those you can defend WTF! We will never use them to protect our rights ANYWAY! We have NO RIGHTS as it is and NO ONE has done a damn thing with their precious guns to stop it. WTF do you think the second amendment is for? So you can go hunting? Besides, anyone who tries to form any kind of anti-tyrant militia is quickly disposed of by our freedom loving government. PURE BOVINE EXCREMENT ! The world is full of it. Its not over. Way Too Many Guns, Too few Jack Booted Thugs The sheer numbers of guns and gun owners and the small workforce of jack booted thugs make complete gun confiscation impossible. It would take eight months of continuous kicking down doors for Obamas minions to get rid of Americas guns. Assuming no one resisted. Lets do the math. 300 million guns. 150 Now comes the tough part To raid a house you need around 20 people, which includes support / communications / medical personnel. For about 3 hours per house. Multiply 3 hours X 20 jack booted thugs X 30,000,000. Thats Theres around 1.8 million individuals who could be Call it 900,000 jack booted thugs on tap. Assume an 8-hour day, since this operation is going to take a while. Each Ok. 250 days to sweep America of guns, assuming no one resists. Meanwhile, a man who was never on their gun list purchases one of these and gets to work on a Ruger knock-off: [link to http://www.harborfreight.com] And the whole process begins again. They hope sheep wont resist. Yes, they mainly wage psychological warfare, using scare tactics. We are waiting !!!!!!!! BRING IT ON ! CNN. = Communist News Network They still dont get it. Hunting government officials? Im all for banning guns. Lets start with The Secret Service, then go down the line to CIA, FBI, DEA, ATF, and so on. Americans are debt slaves to The British Crown! Stupid Americans think theyre free, and dont know theyre just serfs! If there really were such a thing as gun nuts, then judges like the ones running that appellate court would have a neat red hole in the middle of their forhead. The fact that no one goes after those guys tells me that all these mass shootings are staged psy-ops. The original Sons of Liberty fought to unfetter themselves from the shackles of taxation imposed by a tyrannical, governing body; and in its stead, they received an equally unjust legal form of Constitutional taxation. Donation is a voluntary practice putting the power over governance directly into the peoples hands. We would have the right to fund whichever cause we so wished. You dont like war? Fine, dont fund the military. This system can be implemented and is partially why the American Revolution started, to stop forced taxation. Then, the constitution was ratified, effectively making federal taxation legal. There is great irony now in contemplating the failed slogan taxation without representation when, in reality it should have been donation instead of taxation. I offer a quote for all of your contemplation: Lets start by confiscating all guns on TV and in Hollywood movieshey Hollywood Liberals..put your money where your mouths are. The amount of ignorance is appalling. In many states, counties and municipalities the feds cannot enforce any further second amendment restrictions anymore. The laws and provisions have been created to avoid any further violations on fundamental unalienable rights so what they rule or say or do it doesnt matter. The people will not follow through with any radical communist agendas for the disarmament of america. If the Australians like to be disarmed great for them. This will not happen in America. Someone will need to be armed to come to the rescue of those who cannot longer defend themselves. Or they might not go to the rescue and let them exposed to whatever the consequences based on their previous stupid choices. Sting once wrote a song called: History, will teach us nothing. Listen to it. Tell that to all the people being brutalized by police! (since it is the police who will be enforcing the gun-control laws should they pass -a little common sense please!) From My Cold Dead Hands ( ) if thats the case then civil war will break out. leave OUR 2ND ALONE YOU FOOLS OF IGNORANCE CORRUPTED COURT SYSTEM. Im not 100% sure but I dont believe that Australia had anything like out 2nd Amendment. The horrifying part about the gun confiscations that occurred in Australia, was that they never tell you about the post-confiscation crimes statistics. Armed robberies were up 46% within two years as one example. So obviously, only the law-abiding turned in their guns. Killers will always lurk among us. Personally, I would rather deal with the reduced crime with gun ownership, an occasional nut case shooting spree- than know that after guns were taken I had no defense against the criminals or a corrupt government. Because history has shown us, that after a government takes away your right of self-defense, they have no qualms about taking your life also, along with your land, your business, your assets. How do you think that Vladimir Putin became a billionaire anyway? Because he is a savvy businessman? Nope. Confiscation. They want our guns? MOLON LABE !!! AP, you know this will never happen in America! No cop in his right mind would ever take on the duty of firearm confiscation because it would be a suicide mission. Stop fear mongering you frigging clowns.. No matter what law they pass, if the State or Federal Government decided to confiscate our guns their would be a lot of people killed. That would start a Civil War the citizens against the Government. bullcrapconfiscation will lead to random assinations of anti gunners politicians, their famiky, even friends..and even uniformed officia,,,God forbid What a load of crapbut your right Guns dont kill people, People Kill People..So we need to get rid of People Obama want be protected forever an his cronies their the reason we need our guns an they know it
