Fmr. Obama Senior Adviser Calls for Gun Confiscation 'Similar to the One Australia Instituted'

Dan Pfeiffer says 'the Second Amendment is in many ways an anachronism'
Former Obama White House advisor Dan Pfeiffer called for the United States to implement an Australian-style gun confiscation program in an article published on Wednesday.
Former President Barack Obama previously said in 2016 that the United States should consider following the example of Australia, which enacted a "mandatory buy-back" of guns and created a gun registry. Pfeiffer echoed that view in Wednesday's article, published on Crooked, a media site founded by three former Obama staffers. Pfeiffer argued Democrats should propose such a program and outlined an extensive regimen of gun restrictions that Democrats could support, advising they stop "insincere pandering" to gun owners.
"We are nibbling around the edges instead of proposing bold, meaningful solutions," Pfeiffer wrote. His suggestions included implementing a national gun registry, mandating "smart-gun technology," and rolling-out a buy-back program similar to Australia’s.
Pfeiffer accused Democrats of being "brainwashed" into expressing support for the Second Amendment and the culture of gun owners.
"Democratic politicians have been brainwashed by political hacks like me to begin all of their statements about guns by declaring support for the Second Amendment and a deep affinity for the cultures of hunters and sportsmen," Pfeiffer wrote.
He suggested Democrats’ failures only indicate they should ramp up their ambitions on gun control.
"The Democratic gun control strategy fails because it is defined by this poverty of ambition—the determination never to look beyond fear of political repercussions," he wrote, going on to propose a series of unprecedented actions to curtail gun rights in America.

Please, Dems, try to push ahead with this.
Should be enough to push some states like Minnesota and New Hampshire into the Republican pile.

Be careful. There is an admin who will warn or ban you for even "suggesting violence" against these leftist asswipes.

Do this and Trump's win in 2020 would be like Reagan's win over Mondale in 1984 or Nixon's win over McGovern in 1972.

And as we already knew, this is the true beliefs a great deal of liberals hold on guns. Their "support" for the Second Amendment is just for political expediency. Without constant vigilance and resistance they'd have already passed extremely restrictive legislation. Never fall for the "no one is coming after your guns" narrative spewed by leftists like you hear on this board. That is a bald-faced lie and they damn well know it.

It is so bad, that Pfeiffer is saying democrats themselves are 'brainwashed for the Second Amendment.'

But, but, but all of our dem posters keep telling us no one on their side wants to take our guns.

Unpossible! Liberal socialist democrats here and elsewhere have told us that none of them want to take our guns!

Why won't they just follow the Constitution and propose an amendment?

They told him point-blank that they have suffered for years with job losses and hunting was the only resource they had to put food on their table, and they didn't want democrats taking their guns away.
