Hmmm... that kind of operation must be expensive. It would probably take pallets of cash.

You need a new financial adviser if you think an op like that would be expensive. Give me a wheelbarrow of cash, and I could get it done.

To everyone who told me Mitt would do the right thing, when I said he's scum and would stab republicans in the back, now's your chance to apologize.

Anyone know who John McCain voted for this election?

 

[Tombs]

Anyone know who John McCain voted for this election?

Biden, obviously.

The question you should ask is, how many times?

 

[Bennettjh]

Biden:

America was an idea. We've never lived up to it but we've never walked away from it before.

 

[Tombs]

What would happen?

 

[Ingomike]

What would happen?

Put MI and PA in the red and its over...

 

[d.kaufman]

What would happen?

I dont believe Michigan, Pennsylvania, or Minnesota are gonna go to Harris

315-223 for Trump

We still haven't heard from gun owning Biden supporters how our gun rights would be safe under Biden.

Feel free to answer. The silence is deafening.

the following is my opinion only:
There is no. Such thing as a gun supporting Biden voter, only those that either don’t care, because they don’t own “assault weapons”, or those who think it won’t happen in their lifetime, therefore they don’t care; or those who think that somehow their votes for him won’t manifest itself into gun bans.

They ignore everything Biden says, scribble their own views onto Biden, and pretend you're crazy if you don't see the same thing they do.

This was discussed at length a few months back and I don't think the positions have changed.

I don't see Biden carrying gun control as one of his primary tasks in his first term AS LONG AS we don't have another horrific mass shooting. If we do, it will be Congress that moves forward with a bill and for all the possible harm you think Biden might do, if you all lose the Senate, then it is not Biden's problem. It's having Trump as your candidate.

Your fear of Biden is misplaced. Look to your representatives and senators.

Fortunately, SCOTUS will likely be helpful if ACB gets affirmed.

No I think this response (Alpo) has merit.

Lets look at what Joe actually supports and endorses as his "Vision for America"

"Get weapons of war off our streets. The bans on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines that Biden, along with Senator Feinstein, secured in 1994 reduced the lethality of mass shootings. But, in order to secure the passage of the bans, they had to agree to a 10-year sunset provision and when the time came, the Bush Administration failed to extend them. As president, Biden will:

• Ban the manufacture and sale of assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Federal law prevents hunters from hunting migratory game birds with more than three shells in their shotgun. That means our federal law does more to protect ducks than children. It’s wrong. Joe Biden will enact legislation to once again ban assault weapons. This time, the bans will be designed based on lessons learned from the 1994 bans. For example, the ban on assault weapons will be designed to prevent manufacturers from circumventing the law by making minor changes that don’t limit the weapon’s lethality. While working to pass this legislation, Biden will also use his executive authority to ban the importation of assault weapons.

• Regulate possession of existing assault weapons under the National Firearms Act. Currently, the National Firearms Act requires individuals possessing machine-guns, silencers, and short-barreled rifles to undergo a background check and register those weapons with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). Due to these requirements, such weapons are rarely used in crimes. As president, Biden will pursue legislation to regulate possession of existing assault weapons under the National Firearms Act.

• Buy back the assault weapons and high-capacity magazines already in our communities. Biden will also institute a program to buy back weapons of war currently on our streets. This will give individuals who now possess assault weapons or high-capacity magazines two options: sell the weapons to the government, or register them under the National Firearms Act.

• Reduce stockpiling of weapons. In order to reduce the stockpiling of firearms, Biden supports legislation restricting the number of firearms an individual may purchase per month to one."

You ignore the value of the presidential veto, as well as underestimate the willingness of the left to undermine the rule of law, when you hold up SCOTUS as some kind of anti-progressive holy water

Why would anyone assume that Biden would actually be in charge should the election go that way?

Biden will be lucky to make it to election day coherently. No way he'll be in charge come Jan 20th.

It's a good thing Trump will win by a landslide...
