Democrats have passed a gun control bill in the house, which could seriously backfire on gun owners. Breitbart reports:
House Democrats passed a gun ban for former boyfriends, dating partners convicted of abuse and/or stalking.
The gun ban for boyfriends, dating partners is an expansion of the Violence Against Women Act. TIME magazine quoted Nancy Pelosi describing the new gun controls as “common-sense reforms that will save lives and that no one should object to.”
She added, “There should be nothing partisan or political about ending the scourge of domestic violence and sexual assault, which one in three women faces today.”
But Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) intimates that the addition of the gun ban was purely partisan. He noted that there was bipartisan support for renewing the Violence Against Women Act before it expired in February, renewing it in what was then its current form. However, he says, “Nancy Pelosi forced it to expire so she could use women as part of some political leverage.”
Domestic violence is a serious issue, and a cohabitant who is not legally a spouse could slip through the cracks. However, this also has the potential to enable the government to grab guns if the term “boyfriend” is not properly and legally defined.
Here we are again. The DSA/dnc doesn’t want “gun control”, they want gun confiscation and that is exactly what this is. It is a political weapon to do an end run around the Constitution and the 2nd Amendment for the express purpose of gun confiscation.
How about gun confiscation from the illegal TRESPASSERS and criminals that they have been allowing to enter our country. NOW there is a gun bill that I could get behind.
Nancy Pelosi says this s a “Common-sense reform that will save lives and that no one should object to.” If Pelosi and the rest of congress were really concerned about the safety of lives in our country, they would not oppose building the Wall at our borders, and protecting the Sovereignty of our Nation. This bill is a tool to take away our guns. I object to this Bill.
Every state should enact a law that requires individuals or families that have any sort of private security personnel detail (a.k.a. body guards, entourage, etc) armed or otherwise to have each member of the family and the security detail in possession of a fully vetted locally issued concealed carry permit and also have been certified in a weapons handling and use of force class with a minimum passing grade of 90%. Persons with such security details must pass NICS, and a multi-state criminal background check. The rationale being that they must meet a minimum standard of safety and must be individually and personally responsible for weapons they control in the form of security personnel. Many people who argue for insane regulations on 2nd amendment rights would NEVER be issued a CCW permit, yet they hide behind a wall of thugs while they incite riots – they have no skin in the game. Should also regulate the number and skillets of their bodyguard entourage – who needs more than one bodyguard?
Yeah, that’s what I think.
should have been Skill Sets not skillets (friggin spell checker)
If you think you can talk logically and rationally with democrats, you need to wake up. Democrats are interested in power politics only. See, gun issues are like the3 Me Too movement to Democrats. They support issues that go along with the day’s part of their ideology. Women are only believed by Democrats as long as the suspected perpetrator isn’t a democrat. If the person is a democrat then Me Too means nothing to democrats. Democrats want to back door your 2nd Amendment Rights. , But do you ever hear them demand criminal give up their guns? Hell no.
They want to have court hearings and guns removed from homes and possible offenders, based solely on the word of someone’s partner or ex partner. What ever happened to “Innocent before proven guilty”? If Nancy Pelosi, or any other politician wants to protect American Citizens, then their first responsibility is to insure American citizens are safe with a secured border. But no, secured borders are not part of the Communist Manifesto the Democrats are following. The second Amendment is to ensure American Citizens, can defend themselves against a tyrannical l government. Democrats want to control ALL ASPECTS of your life. Removing the guns is one of the first steps. I say, DO NOT GIVE UP YOUR FIREARMS FOR ANY REASON> Courts must find you guilty and not just a bunch of idiotic left wing, power grabbing communists. God Ble3ss America, Our Constitution, Our President and our Sovereignty.
An end run around our Bill of Rights is still treason. BTW if a man gets a restraining order against a woman does it still go the same way, if not this is anglophobic, and racist. That would be typical of the divide and conquer strategy of the DSA/dnc. The traitors are trying to disarm us so they don’t get shot when they try their next coup.
More BS, I know people that protective orders just on their lies. One left while the boyfriend was at work then a week later got a protective order for NOTHING. He never touched her, never threatened her. Yes he had choice words but at the end of the day was happy the lazy witch was gone. So under this law his rights to own a gun would be taken away… If the laws don’t require any proof I have a issue with someone losing their rights. These laws are just another way to take guns away.
If Pelosi is so worried about criminal acts against women, then why the hell is she so dam determined to keep our southern boarders open and no funding for a border wall to stop the criminals, drug trafficking, and human trafficking, as well as the human born sickness being carried into our country by all of the illegal immigrants. Pelosi needs to be ran out of DC and fired from office along with the rest of the Left Wing Nut Democraps, for failure to uphold their oath of office, treason, and an all out effort to overturn our government and way of life by trying to commit a coup against the American people and our duly elected President. All of this 2 faced crap flowing from the Democraps is just that, a bunch of crap focused at turning our country into a 3rd. world style dictatorship, ran by the Democraps and their control freak mega money supporters. We should demand an investigation into the Democraps financial records, for larger than allowed donations, as well as foreign donations. Since Witch Hilary accepted money from foreign interest to the Clinton Foundation then the foundation donated mega funds to Clintons campaign and the DNC, I feel that what took place was as we would call a white wash or money laundering to get around the Laws. By the way how come Soros is able to donate so much money to the DNC, isn’t he and his son foreign influence. Again, we the people must take back our country by never voting for another Democrap to serve in any office, from the smallest school board to the federal government and all offices that fall between those to points. Then we need to make sure that all of the deep state Democraps in all levels of government are no longer employed by any government system for their part in the coup against the United States Of America.
Mr Viet Vet: I will agree with you. This issue goes both ways! Remember the movie “Fatal Attraction” with Michael Douglas & Glen Close? This issue goes both ways. It’s a horrendous thing to be happening in today’s society (yesteryear too, but not reported enough) . This is just another Dem attack on a President they hate because he is so very close to exposing all of the corruption in our Government. Trying to divert the public’s attention. We all know the truth’s. Just waiting for Justice to be served. Corruption in those departments also-all within that “Old boy’s network!”
I don’t understand this….women are rough and tough enough to be in combat????….but have to have government protection against boyfriends??????? This is also nothing more than the same malevolence as the so-called ‘red flag’ laws, a disgruntled woman, possibly because her boyfriend dumped her, can retaliate by falsely crying abuse or assault. Backdoor gun confiscation. And I find it real hard to believe that 1 in three women in this country are abused or sexually assaulted. I call BS.
Read about the CONVENTION OF STATES please .
Trying to read the above piece, I was interrupted by, you guessed it, this Spoutable crap. I wonder who pays sites how much to,permit their viewers to be badgered by/with such rubbish?
The Demoncrats are Bill of Rights trashing freedom haters. I served in the Naval Amphibious Forces. I carried a gun. Now some know nothing politician is going to tell me I can’t have a gun? This no longer America. This is a major violation of the Bill of Rights. Now I’m a very old man. Now the Demoncrats want me to be a defenseless old man unable to have a gun. The criminals and crazies will still have guns! Democrats and Nazis are birds of a feather!
Yes sir! I hear you loud & clear. And BTW, thank you for your service sir!
Anyone who thinks the 2nd Amendment should be abolished should read the 3rd AMENDMENT. Personally I would rather have my guns to protect my family than a kitchen knife or cell phone
Police are always minutes away when seconds count. They only show up to draw a chalk line around your body and call the Coroner.
Its super rare to hear of cops arresting women for abusing men because men don’t have the same rights with police as women do.
All legal forms of protection should be wrapped around a gun before it is given out.
So…girlfriends are exempt? What happened to equality?
Agreed! In this day and age, it seems parents are bringing up over privileged off spring. Spawn of the devil, you might say. I’ve even heard several comments from some of my own “friends” (women that I know, not close friends) who have been divorced a couple or more times, only looking for men or dates, that have money, great jobs, own houses, cars, etc, well you get the picture, and when they get dumped because of their over dramatic personality flaws, and the gentleman finds out what this person is really like, he tried to end the relationship, only to be called a rapist, he used to beat me all the time, and she’s suing him for everything he’s got. Your damn right, men don’t have the same rights as women. All I’m saying, is that this is a 2-way street.
This won’t save lives women lie about men and will take their rights and men will retaliate and beat them to death or poison them, set them on fire, auto wrecks, drown , electrical shock death, over doses are more common than a cold.ECT. its unthinkable what a man with his rights stolen by demos illegal bans will likely do.
Men get killed by over jealous wives or girlfriends too. This goes both ways.
“All political power comes from the barrel of a gun. The communist party must command all the guns, that way, no guns can ever be used to command the party.” – Mao Tse Tung
Politicians write a bill full of loopholes big enough to drive a Peterbilt thru. What a shock.
Democrats are a scourge of Biblical proportions; not just a disease, but a plague.
WEll, all i can say if they come after mine,,, they will meet the business end..
