If you can’t get rid of a Constitutional Amendment, let’s make it impossible for the people to use that freedom. This is the most important story today that no one is talking about.
Maxine Watters, the Democrat from California and the dumbest person in Congress, proves just how dumb she is.
H.R. 127
The 117th Congress is off to a flying start. That means they are working hard to circumvent the Constitution and take away our freedoms that were given to us by God. Of course, the Left doesn’t believe in God so it is no big deal to take away our freedoms.
Sheila Jackson Lee, a Democratic Representative from Texas, has put in bill, H.R. 127 that has decided to really restrict gun rights and the ability to get or keep a gun and ammo.
I think this is an important bill that needs to be defeated so we should look at it. But this bill, which probably will be defeated, opens up other questions that we should all be asking and should have us a little nervous.
So, here’s what the bill does:
Gun Registry
This bill will create a searchable gun registry which will hold quite a bit of personal information. Here are the details:
- Will be available to all government agencies including federal, state and local governments and the military.
- Will be open to the general public.
- Will give our personal information including:
- Gun model.
- When purchased.
- Serial number.
- Dates acquired.
- Licensing information.
- Location of the gun within the residence.
There are some real problems with this:
- Government sucks at everything. This database won’t be different. Hint: hacking.
- The information can be used by the government for future raids and confiscation.
- This data is an invitation for criminals.
- Pissed off neighbors now can watch you very intently like you’re a terrorist.
- This data invites harassment and doxing by anti-Second Amendment folks.
- If this information is combined with gun storage laws, a person can get convicted if his gun is stolen during a burglary.
Who Am I Getting a License From?
I live in California. California has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country. It is very difficult to get a gun or ammo in California. But California law does allow one to get a carry permit and a concealed carry permit. But you must register through the Sheriff’s department.
Guess what happens? The bureaucracy is so thick and the state so doesn’t want to give these permits, it could take years before one even gets an interview for the permit. Don’t believe me? The process can be viewed on YouTube. It’s impossible.
California also restricts everything so much, I’m afraid to go out and buy a gun or ammo.
This law will make California laws into federal law. Here’s what they do:
- The individual must petition the Attorney General to get a license for owning a gun. If the AG is anti-gun, good luck. This also invites the bureaucracy into the mix.
- The applicant must go through a psychological exam. Looking at how psychology is a soft science, I can’t see what would go wrong here.
- Family members must be interviewed by law enforcement. That includes current spouse, children and…ex-spouses. Yeah, nothing wrong there. My ex-wife would have me suspected of killing Jimmie Hoffa after he interview.
- The license will last five years. After that, the whole process starts over again including petitioning the Attorney General and all the training and it can be revoked for whatever reason. If revoked, all weapons must be turned in to the government.
- Oh, yeah. I forgot that one will need to pay $800 a year for “firearm insurance”. So, I buy a $200 shotgun and am spending a year, thousands of dollars and have to navigate the bureaucracy to buy a gun? Nice.
- But it gets worse. You have that nice 18th century musket that hangs on the wall? You need an antique gun license for that. Better not have a criminal record.
Talk about a little bit of government overreach.
Restrictions on Weapons and Ammunition
What is a gun control bill without restrictions. And this bill has a bunch of them:
- Any weapon that is a replica of a “military style weapon”, whatever that means.
- All AR-type pistols.
- The Colt AR-15.
- Some semi-auto shotguns.
- Magazines with 10 or more rounds. There go your automatic hand guns that average 12-18 rounds.
- Ammo that is .50 caliber or above. Home one doesn’t run into any bears.
The Penalties
So, what happens if you don’t follow these way too restrictive rules. As you can imagine, the penalties are far more brutal than one can imagine. Hell, there are degrees of murder that get less time in jail than just owning a gun without the government’s approval. Heck, child molestation and rape can get one less time.
- If you possess a gun or ammo without a license, you face 15-25 years in prison and/or $75-$150 thousand in fines.
- If you transfer a gun to an unlicensed person, you face 10-15 years in prison and/or $50-$75 thousand in fines.
- If you give a gun or ammo to an unlicensed person, you face 5-10 years in prison and/or a $30-$50 thousand in fines.
- Loan a gun or ammo to an unlicensed person, you face a $5-10 thousand dollar fine.
What’s funny is that if you lit a business on fire last summer, you were unlikely to get any jail time.
Conclusion
This is insane and, what more insane, is this law could pass. What’s ironic, after the Revolutionary War, men of fighting age were required to have a gun and a certain number of rounds. This was in order to form a militia if the government got too big or fight against foreign enemies like Britain or France.
Fortunately, I don’t think the particular bill is going to go too far. Some moderate Democrats, like Joe Machin from West Virginia, will be a bit tentative to vote for it. But it is scary. This is only the first bill. The Left will do anything they can to go around the Second Amendment.
I do want to point something out. All the Democrats do is talk about democracy, freedom and the Constitution. But they are the ones that are slowly taking away the rights of the people:
- Eliminate free speech.
- Deplatform conservative press.
- Demonize religion.
- Call peaceful protest that goes against their values insurrection.
- Eliminate gun rights.
- Steal money through taxes.
- Allow illegals aliens to enter the country with no say from legal citizens.
- Eliminate the electoral college.
- Eliminate the filibuster.
- End capitalism.
Interesting, huh? The party of the people doesn’t seem to care much about the people. And a lot of the population are still buying their bullshit.
Auntie Maxie is a Nut Job
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) says former President Donald Trump should be charged with “premeditated murder” because of the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6.
Auntie Maxine said:
“He absolutely should be charged with premeditated murder because of the lives that were lost for this invasion with his insurrection. For the president of the United States to sit and watch the invasion and the insurrection and not say a word because he knew he had absolutely initiated it – and as some of them said, ‘He invited us to come. We’re here at the invitation of the president of the United States.’”
“What’s so interesting about all of this is they tried to make themselves the victim when indeed they are following the president of the United States of America who had advance planning about the invasion that took place in our Capitol. Even there’s information that some of the planning came out of individuals working in this campaign.”
“When he rallied, he said go to the Capitol, fight hard. This is, take back your country. So if that’s not inciting the kind of violence that we witnessed, I don’t know what is.”
Maxine Waters is an absolute idiot. She has to be the dumbest person in Congress. Let’s not forget what she said in 2017 after Trump was elected.
Do as I say, don’t do as I do. It’s to bad she doesn’t take care of her district like she prepares for stupid, inciteful and violent speeches.
