Americans will comply with the law. It will be a mandatory buyback of AR-15 and AK-47s, weapons designed for war. Because we understand that theres no reason for a any of us to own a weapon that was designed to kill people on a battlefield. Especially when that kind of weapon is so often used to kill and terrorize people throughout this country — in their schools, in their grocery stores, in their churches, in their synagogues, at concerts... everywhere. I have met countless AR and AK owners who say they don’t need it to hunt, they don’t need it for self defense, it’s fun to shoot but would give it up. Because they also have kids and grandkids and want them to be safe.

Someone ask him exactly which guns were NOT at some point "designed to kill people on a battlefield".

Exactly. Pretty much every gun was designed, at one point or another, to kill people on a battlefield.

He says AR 15s and AK 47's, but what about bullpups? SCARs? Mini 14's? M1A's?

Not to mention muskets, bolt-action rifles, lever-action rifles, revolvers, semi-auto handguns - all "designed to kill people on a battlefield".

He's literally laying bare the groundwork for the Democratic dream of a complete ban on firearm ownership. I would advise him to be careful around stairs.

Reddit's horrible layout makes you appreciate Chicken's programming abilities.

All of that will be gone for law-abiding people.

Only Jerry Miculek will have a chance against 3 or 4 home invaders.

Someone needs to ask him “oh yeah but what if I don’t comply with the law”

Funny how he expects Americans to follow our laws, but not illegal aliens.

I thought the M-16 was not designed to kill people on a battlefield.

Oh man he is getting grilled in that.

Someone commented "Beto, were you serious about confiscating AR-15's or was that an out of season April Fool's joke?"

Everyone is focusing on his AR15 and gun grabbing comments but the real eye opener is his pledge to open the borders and provide all the new immigrants with welfare and other taxpayer handouts.

Reddit has to do something like it is doing where multiple threads exist in one topic. The userbase is leaps and bounds bigger than here. Lots more going on there. You couldn't keep track of threads on Reddit if it was laid out like a forum like here.

Robert is up to 3905 downvotes with that dumbass ar-15 comment....on reddit, an extremely liberal site. And that includes any upvotes that try and up his reputation on that comment. Let that sink in.

I cannot even get to the site, so it must have already found out and banned me.
