Here is just another reason why McConnell rammed the tax break through in a few weeks and no hearings.
I guess a couple of dozen casualties and 7 dead is no longer front page news.
According to this LTE, “licensing and registration is the first step in gun confiscation.”
(Where is the editor BTW? But I digress.)
So how is the confiscation going to take place? A missive from the White House to…whom? The governor of Texas to enforce the decree? I see, that should work just fine. He’ll tell the mayor of Abilene to round up all weapons. And I am sure he’ll hop to it and have a big pile of guns in a week or so.
Multiply that scenario by however many towns and cities there are in Texas. Then multiply that by 50 states.
There are not nearly enough military to do the job, so it requires the cooperation of every law enforcement agency in many varied jurisdictions. Ain’t gonna happen.
And is there any governor that will allow any president to confiscate the guns from his citizens?
All this irrational fear spread to avoid minimal competency, responsibility and solid vetting for criminal records and sanity.
