Dancers implore, “Do Something!”

“Clean up on aisle 46”

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre walks back Biden gaffs.

In a desperate attempt to seem relevant, to never waste a crisis and still unable to reach a consensus on what would actually help, Dems are once again on the gun ban bandwagon. Tragedy exploited- wash, rinse, repeat.

The late, great Charles Krauthammer opined there are three components to the gun crime issue- the killer, the weapon and the cultural climate. Dems solely attack one aspect, the guns, and ignore the others at their peril.

The gun of all evil is of course the AR-15 format semi-auto modern sporting rifle, although PINO Joe did just compare a .22 with the world’s most popular handgun round, the 9x19mm Parabellum. His comparison of the two bullet’s relative effects was ludicrous.

So here we go once again. The Dems want to raise the legal age to purchase a weapon, reduce magazine capacity, ban scary looking rifles, and increase background checks.

None of which will stop a single crime.

House Dems’ gun package to raise age limit for semi-automatic rifle purchases, ban ‘high capacity’ magazines

Proposals include raising the minimum age to buy semi-automatic weapons, a ban on high capacity magazines, and more.

By Aishah Hasnie, Timothy H.J. Nerozzi | Fox News

The House Judiciary Committee is set to hold an emergency meeting Thursday to pen an extensive gun control package.

Democrats are currently pushing a series of eight bills aimed at suppressing gun ownership, referred to collectively as the “Protecting Our Kids Act,” Fox News confirmed.

The bills contain proposals raising the minimum age for purchasing a semi-automatic weapon from 18 to 21, a ban on “high capacity magazines,” a registry for bump stocks, and more.

The House package is expected to go nowhere in the Senate and is seen as more of a show vote, as a bipartisan group of senators tries to agree on a bill that could pass the Senate.

The gun control package is a direct response to the massacre in Uvalde, Texas – the elementary school shooting last week that left 19 children and two teachers dead.

Fox News

There was the Waukesha, Wisconsin, Christmas parade massacre where a “person of color” drove an SUV through a crowded street, killing six people and injuring 60 more. The Brooklyn subway shooting spree occurred, when the black supremacist assailant set off a smoke bomb before firing 33 rounds into a crowded station.

Neither of these events fit the narrative and have been ignored, yet none of the Dem proposed measures are new and none have had any effect in the 20+ year long gun control debate. Doing the same thing over again and expecting different results is how they roll.

I believe they’d be a bit more serious about protecting children when theirs are in the same schools as are the rest of Americans. Those who still send their kids to government schools, anyway.

But hey, ghouls gonna dance.

Same ol’ Democrat sh*t… a bombing or high-profile stabbing would bring a call to ban AR-15s. (Except if it was in Chicago– didn’t happen, then.)

Uh-oh, the amateur cop wannabes in Uvalde have stooped cooperating with Texas authorities… when seconds count, bureaucrats wait for somebody else.

That “citizen” was actually a Federal Agent and he didn’t kill the gunman. But still cool story.

Old tanker

Sorry, nice meme but false. He was not the only Officer outside evacuating kids. he did not go in and confront the shooter alone, He did not kill the shooter, he was across the street when entry was made. Spreading this kind of BS just makes it harder for folks to understand what really happened.

Well, okay,… but it does show calling 911 (which liberals suggest) doesn’t mean d*ck.

When seconds count, cops will be waiting until the active shooter’s out of hostages.

I will support raising the age to buy semiauto weapons to 21 if they will support raising the voting age to (at least) 21.

rgr769

In addition, let’s raise the age to drive a car to 21, and the age to enlist to 21. Afterall, most 18-year-olds seem now to have a level of knowledge and maturity akin to that of a 14-year-old.

Cummins

I would say that their maturity was that of an 8 year old.

Brandon is one of the stupidest people on the planet when it comes to firearms. I know, I know, he has been telling blatant falsehoods for fifty years. But just the stupid shit he says is off the charts. For example, he says private citizens could not buy cannons back in Revolutionary War days. False, you could buy a muzzle loading cannon back then and during the Civil War. Moreover, you can still buy them. Navy Gun Works had them in their catalogue about ten years ago. There was still a foundry making the tubes (gun barrels. Of course, a complete gun with carriage and implements could run you about $25K to $35K. The North South Skirmishers’ Assn. still conducts cannon/mortar target shooting competitions.

QMC

I read his comments on how the 9mm bullet “blows the lung out of the body” and just chuckled. As usual, that dummy has no idea what he’s talking about and just shooting off whatever comes into his dementia riddled brain.

I think most normal people know that this guy isn’t exactly all there anymore.

Deckie

Hardcore liberals I know who proudly supported this ass clown now hit me with the “I don’t wanna talk about it…” attitude when I remind them how much they loved him just a year and a half ago.

Hack Stone

He learned all he needed to know about firearms from his son who served in the military. That would be Hunter Biden, Naval Reserve Officer.

QMC

That clown is the prime example of why no enlisted sailor that works hard, graduates from a four year university, should ever be denied a DCO/OCS package.

rgr769

He has repeatedly said that Hunter is the “smartest man I know.”

USMCMSgt (Ret)

A while back, he also said people can’t buy fighter jets, which is false. It’s possible if you have the funds. (Ordnance and ammo are a different story.)

Am truly interested in other TAHers thoughts in the proposal of raising the age for purchasing a semi-automatic weapon.

Have mixed feelings on the age. Why? Well, a person cannot purchase alcohol or tobacco products until they turn 21. In some States, one cannot rent a car unless they are older than 18.

Yet, one can join the US Military at 18 or younger. One can legally be married at the age of 18 without parental consent. One can buy adult magazines/materials at 18. One can take out a car loan at 18 to buy a car. In some States, one can legally gamble at 18. One can legally get a tattoo at 18. One can vote at 18 or younger.The legal age for consent is 16-18 years old. One can have an abortion at 18 without parental consent.

Am I mixing apples with oranges?

Guns and Knives don’t kill people. People Kill People. Anyone else remember Charles Whitman?

Mental Illness Is A Terrible Disease.

Martinjmpr

As a matter of principle, I don’t like the notion of “conditional” or “graduated” adulthood. Seems to me that a person is either an ADULT – with all the privileges, responsibilities and obligations that go along with being an adult, or one is not.

If 18-20 year olds are not responsible enough to buy alcohol or firearms, why are they allowed to vote, serve on juries, enter into contracts, marry, or enlist in the military?

They are either competent to make those decisions for themselves – and be legally accountable for them – or they are not. And if they are not, they should not be considered “adults” for legal purposes.

There is nothing more ridiculous than a 20 year old with two combat tours under his belt being charged with “underage possession of alcohol.”

So I would support raising the legal age to purchase firearms to 21 as long as they also raise the age to vote, serve in the military, enter into contracts, etc.

Flakpup

…or, keep it at 21 for general populace and lower all of the ages to 18 if the individual is a member of the military.

poetrooper

That would be a recruiter’s wet dream…

Hack Stone

Back in the mid 1980’s, Florida had a law that if you were in the military, you could purchase alcohol, regardless of age. No idea if that is still the case, will have to defer to someone residing in The Sunshine State.

Fyrfighter

Just before I went in in 88, the feds decided to withhold highway funds from any states that didn’t raise the age to 21. I think that broke the last of the holdouts.

SFC D

Wyoming held out as long as they could. Reagan said he was gonna withhold federal highway funds, Wyoming said hold my beer and sent the feds a check for what they’d already gotten that year. They eventually had to give in but not without a fight.

Liable for all kinds of “adult” stuff, but can’t have a smoke or drink. BS.

I remember hearing about the whitman incident while onboard the USS Okinawa LPH 3 on the news over the ships radio with the news when it happened and later on about the brain tumor most likely causing a pain in the brain causing him to do what he did. I googled the link to refresh my memory but without looking it up, I still remembered the name and incident.

Fyrfighter

IMHO, all the above ages should match. Make it 18, 21, whichever you want, but they should all be the same.
I’d also be ok if all the ages were 21, but military service lowered it to 18.

Charlie Whitman, UT campus in Austin, TX, right?

Liberals think that the one MUST be at least 21 to buy a firearm, tobacco or alcohol BUT can decide their gender and take meds for it at age 5!

Liberalism is truly a mental disorder.

What’re the anti-gunners do if someone commits a crime with a mini-14?

It wasn’t scary black assault rifle with 30 magazine clip and the thing in the back that goes up

Actually what he said was he wanted to ban the 9mm handgun because there was no rational reason to have one for hunting or self defense. I’m in. Just let me know where to turn in all my 9mm ammo in first. I’ll be down there and turn it in at 1200fps.

Daisy Cutter

After the Boston Marathon Bombing, there was not a call for a ban on pressure cookers. Well, maybe there was by a few —

While I was working, nyc had a magazine ban with a limit of 10 round mags. We were issued S&W Mod. 4046’s .40 Cal. and were told to only load the mags with only 10 rds because the issued mags held 12 rounds and we were told that if we had to use the gun during a hold up and it was found out that the mag had 12 rds in it, we would be arrested. Same with NYPD but they had a waiver to load their mags to over 10 rounds. I heard that the Brink’s suits went to the city to get a waiver but it was a no soap deal. We were issued the .40’s right after 9/11, and after I retired in 2007, I heard that they went over to one of the S&W M&P varient’s.

It is as if the Donks intrnded targets are legal gun owners, not criminals.

You either forgot the sarc comment or be new to the democrats agenda.

None of the screeching is truly about guns, it’s all about control.

KoB

And the attempted control of We, The People continues. What part of “…shall not be infringed.” is hard to understand? I say again…they would not want to “control the gunz” if they weren’t planning on doing things that would make We, The People want to shoot them.

They want to control We, The People, but the gunz are in their way.

Leftists’ idea of “gun safety” is that people they abuse don’t have any.

Dems  💩  want to raise the age limit to 21 to purchase a gun but have no problems with schools sexually grooming little kids with pride flags and drag shows (Remember kids, keep it a secret from your parents… now lets pick your pronouns for your new gender). How DARE parents object! Hello DOJ? MY student’s parents are hurting my feelings… can I get a terrorism investigation started?

I grew up in a small Illinois town, (home of Richard Speck FYI) surrounded by cornfields. Hunting season is when you’d see student (and teacher) pickup trucks parked outside the high school with a gun in the back window gunrack (68-72).

poetrooper

Sexual grooming–what that lesbian Hillary Clinton meant when she said, “It takes a village to raise a child.”

SFC D

She was referring to Greenwich Village.

Mick

And The Village People.

So if 18 year old American citizens are not responsible enough to own a firearm, we need to increase the age to vote to 21 years old. Also, anyone in the US Armed Forces are not to be issued a weapon, whether sidearm, rifle, or crew served until the age of 21. But of course, 11 year olds wil be mature enough to decide if they should have gender reassignment.

Hack Stone

Let’s keep it going. No one can attend college until age 21, because 18 year olds are not intelligent enough to understand the intricacies of their student loans.

Mike B

The age to purchase firearms in Florida is already 21 with a 3 day wait unless you have a CCP, are a LEO, etc. Has been since after the school shooting we had at the Stoneman-Douglas school in 2018.

Don’t need these idiots passing more stupid gun laws. I keep an eye on my guns and none of them have committed any crimes. So mine must be well disciplined or just too damn old for that shit.

Again as usual some deranged idiot commits a heinous act with a gun and ALL gun owners get painted with the same broad brush.

I’m tired of being accused of being a gun fanatic, war monger, etc just because I own more than one gun….OK several more than one, OK my collection is closing in on 50 right now……But I’m not a gun fanatic!

A Proud Infidel®™

The D-rats are carrying on with their war on guns, just look at how unavailable drugs are today with their war on that!

Jay

I’m waiting for the ‘magic number’ the come up with the determine what constitutes a ‘high capacity magazine’. 12? 15? Congrats….every semi-auto pistol you own is now illegal.

Ive noticed that they didn’t include wrist braces for the AR pistol this go around. I’m guessing they got tired of getting their asses kicked in court on that one.
