Biden and whoever is propping him up are entering territory that will cost the Democrats dearly in 2022 and 2024. Actually, they are no longer Democrats. Nor are they socialists. They are Marxists. It’s really that simple.

Here's the story I wrote on Sgt. Matthew Corrigan, whose guns were taken because he was supposedly a risk to himself -- not true -- and the guns were not registered. It took years and a lawsuit to get them back. This is what the red flag laws will be like. https://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/guns/2012/may/23/miller-iraq-vet-brutalized-over-guns-dc/

I did this story on Lt. Augustine Kim whose guns were taken by DC and only under pressure from my writing and a good lawyer, he got them back. He wasn't red flag but shows how the government can take guns when it chooses and you have little recourse. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/may/21/miller-soldier-gets-his-guns/

I want to say I’m dumbfounded by how easily the pubic is duped. But deep inside, I’m not. We are a society that worships the Kardashians, we put up on pedestals people who engage in abnormal behavior, we condemn our traditions while we bend over backwards to avoid offending China. So, i guess I’m not surprised we are gullible.

It's absolutely futile . Easily 6-9 million of these braces in circulation nationwide. This idiot is writing checks his lackeys can't cash

Anyone want to wait for the rush of tens of thousands of AR pistol owners applying for a stamp?

Let's all cut the crap here. This all was possible by millions of illiterate people who can not understand simple english. And making it even worse, it that the 2A IS the most straight forward easy amendment the constitution has. "The RIGHT to carry and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED." Well, guess what. Millions of you are not selling your RIGHTS away, you are paying to give those rights away. Millions have happily and arrogantly supporting their, i.e. YOUR, INFRINGEMENT on the 2A. Just think, IF you all had told the government to kick rocks, and DEFENDED our RIGHTS. You would NOT have to pay to be allowed a now PRIVILEGE. You screwed the nation, and paid for it to happen. Dont cry for your stupidity now.

The DOJ and ATF will within the next 30 days publish a proposed regulation to expand the definition of a firearm “frame or receiver.” The first draft of this rule will attempt to make slides and uppers regulated components under the GCA. If true, this is a move that will be immediately and overwhelmingly opposed, during the public comment period and then in the federal courts, by the entirety of the gun industry and the Republican Party. For this reason, do not expect the law to change within the next 90 days.

That’s utterly ridiculous, the rules don’t apply to criminals or terrorists, and let’s face it if someone really wants a gun they will find ways to get it. Whether those ways are legal or illegal, he just wants to disarm the law abiding citizens so the government can impose its will on the people!

Ghost guns, how does he really expect to enforce background checks. Neither he nor his Justice dept can mandate serial numbers or background checks on anything but the part classified by Congress as a gun. Congress specified what a background check is required for and he will find his pen just as blunt as Obama found his.

And Emily, you vastly understated the infringement Red Flag laws entail. They don't just violate the 2nd amendment, but the 1st by using the threat of Red Flag seizures to silence those who oppose the left. Speak out on gun rights or abortion rights and the police will decide you are a threat and seize your weapons. The 2nd is clear, the 4th. Seizure of such weapons is a violation of the 4th amendment. 5th, No due process in red flag seizures where the accused gets no defense before hand. 6th no trial before a jury of peers before stripping a constitutionally guaranteed right. And the right to face your accusers in court to challenge their claims. 7th right to a trial by jury for any case where items of a value greater than $20 are in question. Guns cost hundreds or even thousands, so do the ammo stocks most have (and seldom get returned even when they get their guns back), and 8th. Taking thousands of dollars of guns and ammo, on hearsay, having to prove your innocence (not the state having to prove your guilt) to get the guns back (and again you rarely hear of anyone getting their ammo back) it's a stretch but that's cruel and unusual in that such laws manage to violate every one of the rights the Bill of Rights reserves to the people except the irrelevant 3rd Amendment. Red Flag trample on the Bill of Rights, not just the 2nd amendment.

This was bound to happen sooner or later as long as The Empty Suit and Willie Brown's ex are occupying the office. Scary part is that we cannot count on the courts to have our backs.

One thing I'm curious about, though - has the NFA been interpreted as a law that items can simply be added without legislative action? It probably has, but I still wonder about it.

Thanks, Emily, excellent report.

nones of these orders are for criminals, there for the law, abiding citizens attempt to take away our firearm so the government can impose additional infringements. State are already taking action, check Az.Wy. In just curious about how the SCOTUS will few this...

Emily, Because this gun grab was done by EO, is it law? Is an EO subject to court rule? Can we hope a judge sees this as illegal?
