Positively incredible. ZERO focus on enforcing firearms laws already in existence and instead, MORE insidious ways to use taxpayer dollars to expand bureaucracy and skim billion$ …

According to the article there were 636 mass shootings so far this year....say WHAT?

My take from the document is that the feds are powerless to enforce anything gun related.

Too bad they didn't offer up something The Big Guy actually knew something about, like foriegn investment in your personal bank account.

Or Braying Donkey could offer advice on matters she is a SME in like, er, ah,...

They have the power. What they don't have is the will.

They used to hide the ghetto shootings because it made them look bad.

They still hide them, but include them in the stats now because they think it supports their cause.

And...

Hydra warfare. It has already been proven that they cannot pass draconian federal gun laws. It either is a non-starter (like the Go Safe act) or quickly makes it to the Supreme court where it is shot down.

With this, they hope to create 50 little targets to keep the 2a litigators busy until they can regain power in the SCOTUS and/or a majority in both houses

When is it time to stop burying them and start digging them back up?

I'll sum it all up: Brandon will take away the guns from the law abiding, then suddenly, the criminals will turn in their guns, and we'll all be dancing around the maypole singing Kumbaya and toasting s'mores.

All window dressing...style over substance. It makes it look like they're trying to do something and when it fails it provides an issue to hammer Republicans with.

There's no serious intent here at all other than politics and for an issue for re-election. Objective people see through it...Democrats don't.

****Are we really gonna be toasting S'mores? I would think we would be celebrating that the criminals turned in all of their guns in the interest of fairness and can now only beat, rob, and kill people with knives, clubs, fists, and possibly work boots if they manage to come across them...

Some idjut on my local NextDoor app is discussing this as if it will bring down crime in our area now, including the recent lootings of Nike, Lululemon, and other similar stores in the area..

Exactly. More "feckless" ideas from JB.

They only turn Harris onto "problems" that they have no interest in solving.

She has demonstrated that she long ago rose beyond her level of incompetence, and that's where her utility resides.

I’m happy to see that they’re still trying to find ways to keep Kamala gainfully employed. Maybe someday they’ll find something she’s actually good at…

 

[TheOriginalMexicanBob]

They already know what she’s good at…just ask Willie Brown.

You know I had that thought, too. But then I realized that most of her supporters wouldn’t see that as a detriment on her part.

 

[TheOriginalMexicanBob]

Most of her supporters have probably been on the receiving end of her “qualifications “…at least those supporters who could help her political career.
