Another two faced Left-Tard pushing Obama's disarmament plans... You're right doofus, "not in your lifetime", and then some! Gun-Toting Action Star Matt Damon Wants Australian-Style Gun Ban in U.S.by AWR Hawkins, 5 Jul 2016 Gun-toting action star Matt Damon of The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum, and The Departed, says he wishes the U.S. would implement a gun ban similar to the one Australia implemented in the 1990s. Appearing in Sydney, Australia, for his latest gun-toting action film, Jason Bourne, Damon praised Australia’s gun ban and said he wishes the U.S. would follow the Aussies’ lead. According to Stuff, Damon said, “You guys did it here in one fell swoop and I wish that could happen in my country, but it’s such a personal issue for people that we cannot talk about it sensibly. We just can’t.” www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2016/07/05/matt-damon-wants-australian-style-gun-ban-in-u-s/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social

Before We Rip Open Carry Laws, CNN–You Do Know Texas Is Experiencing Record Low Crimes Rates, Right?Matt Vespa, Posted: Jul 11, 2016 3:00 PM During their live coverage of the July 7 attack on police in Dallas by Micah Xavier Johnson, CNN, in their infinite wisdom, decided to discuss the scary open carry law that just went into effect this year, as if to suggest this has something to do with a crazy person–Johnson–who wanted to kill white police officers. It doesn’t. Nevertheless, lawyer Areva Martin and New York Times columnist Charles Blow decided to talk about gun control, which host Don Lemon blessedly cut off, saying that’s a subject for another day (via Newsbusters): townhall.com/tipsheet/mattvespa/2016/07/11/before-we-all-blame-guns-you-do-know-texas-has-the-lowest-rates-of-crimes-since-the-1960s-right-n2189970

Obama’s forgiveness of gun crimes amid push for controls ‘incredible hypocrisy’By David Sherfinski and Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Tuesday, August 9, 2016 Richard Reid was already a two-time felon when authorities searched his Delaware apartment and found marijuana, crack cocaine divided into sales-size plastic bags, powder cocaine, a scale — and a loaded .32 caliber handgun, an unloaded .25 caliber pistol and ammunition for two other types of weapons. Last week, President Obama commuted Reid’s 25-year sentence and made him one of the hundreds of drug users and dealers who the White House says have done enough time. But at the same time, Mr. Obama forgave scores of gun crimes convictions for the offenders, raising thorny questions about whether the White House is serious about keeping guns out of “the wrong hands” — a refrain of the Obama administration in the wake of mass shootings. Mr. Obama forgave six of Reid’s gun crimes, in addition to the drug trafficking and possession offenses for which he was convicted in 2007. He is one of 107 federal inmates who have had gun crimes convictions pardoned or sentences commuted during this administration, including a number who used firearms while dealing drugs or who carried them despite having felonies on their records. Still others were caught lying to gun dealers or carrying weapons with the registration numbers filed off — suggesting an even deeper level of gun crime. “This is the most incredible hypocrisy,” said Erich Pratt, executive director of Gun Owners of America. “The president has commuted the sentences of dangerous criminals who were convicted of gun-related charges. But then, he does everything in his power to block law-abiding gun owners from purchasing firearms.” www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/aug/9/obamas-forgiveness-of-gun-crimes-amid-push-for-con/

The bloomberg groups tried their crap in GA and got their ass handed to them... Gun control goes on the ballotBy Reid Wilson - 08/12/16 04:50 PM EDT Stymied on Capitol Hill and in state legislatures, supporters of stricter gun control measures are taking their cause to the ballot box. Voters in four states will decide ballot measures relating to gun control this November. In Maine and Nevada, voters will decide whether to expand background check requirements to include private gun sales. In Washington, voters will decide whether to take guns out of the hands of people who are subject to extreme risk protection orders, which include restraining orders and people at risk of suicide. And in California, voters will decide whether to ban the possession of large-capacity magazines. The California measure, Proposition 63, would also require individuals to pass a background check before purchasing ammunition. “2016 will be the year of gun sense,” said Kate Folmar, a spokeswoman at Everytown for Gun Safety, the group funded by former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. “If elected leaders themselves won’t change the laws that make it too easy for dangerous people to get weapons, the American people will change them themselves.” thehill.com/homenews/campaign/291302-gun-control-goes-on-the-ballot

Liberal States/groups have been trying this tactic for years, but then they didn't have an anti-Constitutional usurper at the head of a completely corrupted government backing 'em up... Liberals Launch New Assault on Gun Makers: 'Some Guns May Be Dangerous'Tuesday, 06 Sep 2016 07:19 PM Trouble is brewing in New England for gun manufacturers. The Massachusetts attorney general has launched an innovative investigation of major firearm makers based on her state’s expansive consumer-protection law. The probe targets at least two companies—Glock Inc. and Remington Outdoor Co.—and possibly others. The investigation came to light because of lawsuits the gun companies recently filed seeking to block or narrow the Massachusetts safety investigation, calling it overly intrusive. The defensive litigation stated that Attorney General Maura Healey is demanding that Glock and Remington surrender a wide range of internal documents, including safety-related complaints from customers. www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/new-legal-assault-firearm/2016/09/06/id/746989/

The Left’s War on Guns Leaves the Second Amendment Standing on Shaky GroundBy John G. Malcolm, October 18, 2016 | 10:58 AM EDT The current presidential election notwithstanding, there are very few topics that generate as much passionate debate as the Second Amendment and gun control. Every time a tragic event occurs, the Left calls for a renewal of the Assault Weapons Ban and other restrictive gun control measures, claiming that the proliferation of firearms in this country is responsible for a disproportionate amount of violence and poses an ongoing threat to public safety. Ever since 2008, when the U.S. Supreme Court held in District of Columbia v. Heller that the Second Amendment provides an individual right “to keep and bear Arms,” gun control activists have been trying to narrow the scope of that right (with considerable success in the lower courts). They have attempted to get the Supreme Court to overturn Heller and its 2010 decision in McDonald v. City of Chicago, which extended Heller to state and local jurisdictions, both 5-to-4 decisions. Indeed, as Justice Antonin Scalia noted in his majority opinion in Heller: “Undoubtedly some think that the Second Amendment is outmoded in a society where our standing army is the pride of our Nation, where well-trained police forces provide personal security, and where gun violence is a serious problem. That is perhaps debatable, but what is not debatable is that it is not the role of this Court to pronounce the Second Amendment extinct.” cnsnews.com/commentary/john-g-malcolm/lefts-war-guns-leaves-second-amendment-standing-shaky-ground
