US Voter Registrations Surge as Republicans Try to Limit Ballot Access One group said it has registered over 100,000 new voters since U.S. President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 race. https://www.commondreams.org/news/u-s-voter-registration
Yes, common sense. Glad she is on our side. Weird way to go about it, but glad Britt is saying Republicans are crazy.
Democrats do everything they they can to feed into this as well. The cries for an "assault weapon ban" being just one example of their ignorance/deception.
It should never take this long or have this many tragedies to have sensible gun laws. It's infuriating.
The villages is a retirement community in Florida strictly dedicated to golfing. Generally it’s a huge Trump backing community in the past.
The "assault weapons ban" has nothing to do with sensible gun laws. Assault weapons (automatic) are already banned (except with a rigorous background check and signing up for an expensive permit that allows the ATF to randomly search any and all of your personal property and belongings) and are virtually never used in any crime. The "Assault weapon ban" is literally a law to make most commonly used hunting rifles and possibly handguns guns illegal. Literally a law to "take our guns". I'd be interested in knowing what sensible gun law you'd suggest that wouldn't violate the 2nd amendment. *Edit* Ideally, which would also reduce crime, or at least prevent some mass shootings
It's okay. I wasn't necessarily arguing either. I didn't take your comment as an argument, more as an opportunity to expand on the point a bit. The offer is open to everyone. Violence in this country, including gun violence, is a problem we need to address. And it won't be addressed effectively if we don't have the discussion.
No. It's not. I agree with you on a lot, and I would agree if you said there were some gun-control lobbyists or legislators what want to include hunting rifles and handguns, but what you are posting here isn't a thing. I live in a very right-wing, gun-happy, hunting-happy community, and no one is concerned that an assault weapon ban is going to keep them from hunting or having a handgun in their dresser drawer. They are concerned that an assault weapon ban will take some of their fun shooting-range weapons away and will be the first step to stricter gun laws that would eventually affect hunting rifles and handguns. They are even more concerned about background checks and laws that would keep keep them from being able to purchase a gun because they had some history of violence in their background, which, it seems a lot of them do.
