    Lack of an intellectual response noted. Typical of the left. How does shutting down the discussion solve anything.

    If you don't have the sense to know the tipping point is coming soon with mass shootings, that's your problem. Keep up the NRA bullshit and take down the Republican Party with them.

    And if such simply does not come to pass as predicted? What then? What will the response on the part of yourself be when there are no new federal level firearm-related restrictions implemented?

    Yet, none of those shooters would have appeared on the list or been prevented from buying guns.

    Next!

    If the laws are set up to report that a suspected crazy has guns, a following temporary confiscation of guns followed by a due process hearing will greatly fill in that hole.

    True americans.

    Freedom of thought now illegal.

    Your progressive liberal version of america is the autobahn to fascism. You're just too dense realize it.

    In America. People have the freedom to not like you because of how you look, what you believe, or even the stupid **** you might say. I know this is contrary to the snowflake mentality you were brought up to believe, but your utopian world view blows.

    Once you allow people to be persecuted for their beliefs, you are no better than a nazi.

    You are probably rolling your arrogant eyes at this right now... but your too ignorant too even realize it

    why do you think mentally ill people are crazy you hate them you want to put them in a concentration camp?

    Why is it you sell out your values the second you have an opportunity to try and disparage gun owners?

    The mentally ill are more likely to be victims of crime than perpetrators of it. And you want them to be second-class citizens.

    Why not just make them wear insignia stitched onto their clothes by law.

    Your post once again is inaccurate and incorrect. Racism is not protected by freedom of thought, and when it motivates terror, it is criminal.

    Your far right version to protect the fascism on the right is failing, but you don't get it. That is OK.

    This should be an excellent indication that this is not about lessening victims. It's about you and me. They don't want us to have our rights. Subjugating the mentally ill is simply a step in that direction.

    It will take a few elections to get rid of the Republicans first, but firearms are just another issue where the Republicans support the NRA and not the people.

    My guess is the Republicans will try something to pass gun legislation, but only in ways that don't affect the profits.

    There is historical evidence that it starts with labeling the mentally ill have fewer rights than everyone else.

    LOL, the NRA is the people, something the left wing authoritarians cannot abide.

    Wait, wasn't the lefties that claimed no Republican would get elected again after Obama? I guess the left does not value the American people.

    Oh, you mean like the sick ideas outlined in the Constitution? I know the lefties think freedom is determined by what government allows you to do but hey, understanding of the Constitution is not their strong point.

    Who decides who is mentally ill? The Gestapo government?
    Yes it is absolute.

    Why didn't the founders put any restrictions in the 2A????

    Trump needs to think before he speaks. He needs to think before he tweets. He needs to understand just how important, how implacable, is diversity in the movement of American history and culture.

    I was referring the to post left by another member, not the original post
    "Once the true Americans are in Congress and the WH again, racism can be declared a mental disease, and such people must turn in their weapons or be caught and turned into a rehabilitation center."
    "rehabilitation center" = death camps
    is that introspective enough?

    And who would make this determination as to who a racist is? It seems that many today believe that having a secure border today qualifies a person as a racist. It seems to be such a subjective term.

    The end game of the Lefties is to get rid of all guns. Once the guns are gone there will be no opposition to their tyranny. This is why I HATE the left....bunch of oppressing socialists.

    You can vote yourselves into socialism, but you have to shoot your way out of it

    I see racism as a unique mental illness because it is one that is a choice. It is an act of will to NOT stop being a racist. It can be reversed if a person wants to eliminate such hate and irrational bias from his psyche.

    So you say you hate the left because of your own fantasies that you impose on them. That's pretty bad.

    I'm a lefty and I have 4 rifles, and 12 gauge, and a revolver. And I want to see a ban on assault-style weapons and removable magazines for starters.

    If your idea of freedom is purchasing and carrying an AR-15 with high capacity magazines into crowded areas, then your freedom will be lost in the near future.

    If you understood the Constitution, you'd understand exactly what the Founders intended with the Bill of Rights. You wouldn't be reading the words and changing them into what you think they say. The Founders didn't want a standing army, which we now have the most deadly in the world, so they decided to have militias controlled by the states, even though they gave the federal government authority to raise an army and navy. If you can't disarm the people, you can't disarm the militia. That prevents a Tyrant from one state getting control over the others.

    Read the minutes from the meetings when they made the Bill of Rights.
