    We hear this constantly. Every time the possibility of a new gun law or executive order is uttered... the leftists come out in droves and repeat the tired old line: "Nobody is coming to take your guns."

    Just thought I'd create this thread to post examples wherein people are saying that. Feel free to share your examples. I'm breaking one of my own rules by linking to places like Salon, et al... but there are too many links here for me to go through archiving them all.

    (Some of these found here: Geeky Leftist: The gun bans and confiscation we're told nobody is talking about ) Also check out a new Subreddit called "No one wants to take your guns"... wherein they post examples of just the opposite: https://www.reddit.com/r/NOWTTYG/

    By now you should have noticed that the narrative is "semi-automatic" firearms which need to be banned. Sounds really REALLY scary and we just can't have anything scary out there threatening the children.

    Democrats on INGO tell me to not worry about it because they can't get this stuff passed.

    This whole thing is getting so worn thin.
    That the left leaning folks fail to admit the agenda makes me seriously ill.

    Again, I want to thank all of those who voted for this crap. That would be any Liberal......any of them.

    That you all do not see this as the lefts agenda is just sad.

    Lies and misdirection. I am sick of it.

    I hate when liberals make excuses for their policies by saying what they want would never be passed, or "Republicans would block it anyway."
    I am thankful Republicans took the House of Representatives when they did back in 2010, or severe gun and/or magazine restrictions would have been imposed.

    I love the one about sending SEAL Team Six to my house to take my guns... Any politician thinking SEAL Team Six (or any other entity which truly understands the Constitution) would carry out such a mission is sorely mistaken. What would happen instead... I'll leave that one right there. You either get it or you don't. And I think most of INGO gets it.

    Yep, plus the moron who made that profoundly stupid comment obviously never heard of Posse Comitatus Act, signed clear back in 1878 by President Rutherford B. Hayes.

    True enough, but can we reasonable expect anything different from people who are not capable of understanding the difference between a republic (i.e., limited government) and a democracy (i.e., unlimited government a/k/a tyranny by 51% vote)?

    Conservatives Fudds will be among the first to turn you in should it ever happen. And anyone who believes that military and LE won't carry out such orders is fooling themselves. Yeah, there are a few among those professions who believe strongly about the individual RKBA, but there will be very few of those who will resist such orders thus trashing their careers, and those people will be replaced early on when they don't follow orders. And there are lots more who believe civilians aren't elite enough like they are to be allowed weapons. I don't fear the liberal whackadoodles out there, I fear the Bill Rugers of the world.

    Absolutely. It amazes me how conservative Fudds are also the worst offenders for considering their willingness to blindly follow laws and persons of real or perceived authority no matter how far they stray from the law (i.e., the Constitution) themselves the gold standard for their personal holiness.

    In the end, there will be a certain percentage of military and LE who honor their oath, but on the other hand I am aware of plenty who wouldn't tax my arm too hard to throw rocks and hit them who would do anything to anyone in the name of self-promotion, official or unofficial.

    Agreed but the whackadoodles have set this in motion.

    I have to disagree. The traitors have actually set it in motion. The whackadoodles are simply the fill material fleshing out the movement, mindlessly pulling levers and signing petitions. People like Bloomberg, Brady, Feinstein, Pelosi, Schumer, and Shannon who apparently doesn't get laid often enough are the real critical mass causing it to happen. All of them are committed to a treasonous cause and all of them are master manipulators of one stripe or other.

    Progressivism is a disease that infects liberals, conservatives, libertarians, greens, occupy " ", BLMers...many people of many causes and parties.

    "But officer you can't charge me with a crime. Sure I told everyone that I wanted to kill him, praised other people who killed others with knives. bought a knife, researched the best place to stab him, stalked him for a few days to learn his patterns, spoke with others with similar intent to get advice and direction, meticulously planned and documented how I was going to execute my plan... but I didn't succeed so you should just let me go"

    They just never complete the sentence. D's do this all the time. It's the partial truth without the implied reality.

    No on is coming to take your guns...fill in the blank. Today, yet, right now, from my office. The truth is they want to come for your guns NOW and only defer the reality until they can fool enough idiots into following them.

    If you like your insurance you can keep your insurance...fill in the blank. Choose from: it will cost you twice as much. until this law passes. if it fits into the new legislation. if I say so.

    Or, "I did not have sex with," looks at Monica Crowley sitting in the audience "that woman". Sure, it's a truth of sorts. One he could justify in his own mind enough to pass a lie detector test possibly even. Still, a lie.
