Is Joe going to send the National Guard into inner cities?
That is where the majority of "gun violence" occurs does it not?

f you have to hide them, what’s the point in having them?
Exactly, really there is no point in hiding them, no one is going to go door to door taking your guns. They are going to make you a felon for possessing the banned items , and if you ever get caught with them outside you will likely go to prison, at least in the beginning they will make an example of people that are caught. They will work to assure that those possessing banned firearms have the same social stigma as drug dealers. You will never be able to transport your firearms in a car, show a friend, you won’t know who you can trust. Corporations will never tolerate illegal gun owners as employees. They don’t have to take your guns, they will force owners to give them up through social engineering.

By "weapons of war" do you mean AR-15 and other scary black rifles? I pity the fool who actually takes one of those off to war in this day-and-age. Are you going to sue Obama's Justice Department for putting actual "weapons of war" on our city streets?

Pamphlet #230
President George Washington
Address to the Second Session
First United States Congress
"President George Washington's Thoughts on Firearms"
When any, nation mistrusts it's citizens with guns,
it is sending a clear message.
IT no longer trusts its citizens,
BECAUSE SUCH A GOVERNMENT HAS EVIL PLANS!
The British attempt to seize muskets, gun powder and cannon
at Lexington and Concord was proof of their plans of coming oppression!
The Roman's siege of Carthage, 157 B.C.,
where the Romans made a treaty with Carthage
saying if only the would turn over their swords (hand guns),
spears (rifles) and catapults (artillery),
they would allow them to live in peace.
THEN CAME THE AWFUL ASSAULT! THE ROMANS SLAUGHTERED MOST OF THE POPULATION,
BURNED THE CITY AND EVEN PLOWED UP THE GROUND!
Have we forgotten the traitorous treaty our country
made with the Cherokee Indians and the treatment of Chief Joseph?
Now we are faced with treatment from our own kind and it isn't funny!
Read the attached comments about "The Role of Firearms,"
by President George Washington and help spread their wisdom.
“Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself.”
“They are the American people’s liberty teeth
and keystone under independence.
The church, the prairie wagon and citizen’s firearms are indelibly related.”
“From the hour the Pilgrims landed, to the present day,
events, occurrences, and tendencies prove
that to insure peace, security, and happiness,
the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable.”
“Every corner of this land knows firearms,
and more than 99 99/100 percent of them
by their silence indicate they are in safe and sane hands.”
“The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference.
They deserve a place of honor with all that’s good.”

We should totally disarm citizens. All for it. Right after we disarm all Congressional security.

Idk. You made the claim he never did. The burden of proof is on you.

“This Administration will not wait for the next mass shooting to heed that call. We will take action to end our epidemic of gun violence and make our schools and communities safer.
When do they begin relocating people living in democrat ghettos out of the country? That will instantly reduce gun violence by 90%.

Don’t worry guys 56lsu says don’t believe the words that come out of Biden’s mouth or statements from his administration.
This argument is so fricking stupid. “Dont worry about what the Dems are TELLING us they will do. Just assume they won’t do it.” Yeah that makes me feel better.

Yup. It’s a required adjective now. No liberal ever says “gun control” without first tossing in “common sense.”

This is the “common sense” part the liberals will never talk about. The only gun violence epidemic is in black neighborhoods, perpetrated with handguns usually possessed illegally. Liberals are only interested in taking legally purchased ARs from suburban dads.
