One White House hopeful is rolling out a gun control plan that would put many Second Amendment believers behind bars.

In other words, Booker needs a spark — perhaps a spark to energize the increasingly hard-left Democratic Party activist base. In a CNN appearance on Monday, Booker may have tried to generate that spark by offering a (tyrannical and anti-constitutional) paean to the vehemently anti-Second Amendment partisans of the Democratic Party base.
Mikhael Smits of The Washington Free Beacon tweeted Booker’s underlying CNN clip and noted: “Cory Booker won’t say whether he’ll jail Americans who refuse to surrender firearms they lawfully purchased if he’s president.”
As Smits elaborated, CNN anchor Poppy Harlow pressed Booker on whether he agreed with the proposals of his fellow 2020 presidential candidate Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), an anti-gun stalwart, who supports “buy-back programs, where Americans who currently have [certain types of] guns could sell them, essentially, to the government.” As Harlow noted, Swalwell then proposes that if the gun owners “don’t [turn in their weapons] within a certain period of time, they would be prosecuted, thrown in jail.”
Booker prevaricated, initially resorting to the tangential leftist platitude that the “critical thing is I think most Americans agree that these weapons of war should not be on our streets.”
These political idiots, along with Hollywood celebrities think guns and their bodyguards are ok but not for the rest of us. People are not going to turn in their guns so they are wasting their breath. But that, along with free stuff is all they got going. And that won’t get them elected.
Booker is an IDIOT and a wannabe Gestapo Nazi
THOUGHT: MAYBE WE COULD OUTLAW DEMOCRATES.
I’ll give up my guns and ammo one bullet at a time. The body count will rise!
Robert I think you speak for Majority of US Citizens. Once they try to take our guns or attempt to take them they better be prepared for war.
Democrats and those in Congress know if they take all the guns they have complete control over all our lives. Exactly how Stalin was able to take over Russian and kill millions of Russian Citizans because once he had all their guns he killed and tortured millions of Russian Citizians. Just like what happened in Venezuela and other Socialist countries where the people don’t have guns to defend themselves from the tyrants in control of their government. Gun is just a tool like any other tool as good or better as the person using it “Alan Ladd from the movie Shane”.
How can those people be give up guns. Why are they so dumb? They can see what happens in other countries when the citizens give up their guns. Is that what they want? Maybe liberals and the rich will be the new elite class and the rest of us will be the working class. The undesirables of the country. Need to shut these people down, now!
Guns were banned in Venezuela, and look what happened.
YOU RIGHT…… IN WONDER IF THIS WILL BE BEFORE OR AFTER THE FIGHT.. HUH IT WOULD TAKE MANY YEARS TO GET 300 MILLION HOMES GUNS. THERE WOULD BE BLOOD EVERYWHERE COUNTING THOSE THAT SUPPORTED THIS LAW.
Cory Booker a rapacious unknowing bolshevik. One that has to disarm ones intelligents?
We have laws of nature and you can’t dispute them. Like tramp on a snake and it will bite you. Walk into a tornado and you will be blown away. Get the point? Now you have man made laws, and the majority of them are for the good of society. Some times people try to make a law that is driven by a few but not supported by the majority. These are useless laws and most are just ignored by the public. They don’t have enough jail space if the public does not obey a stupid counter productive law. You can’t enforce a law the majority does not want.
Stand your ground and organise. Spend the moving money on a good politician, if you can find one.
I live in New Jersey but moving to North Carolina as soon as possible to get away from those idiots that voted that liberal idiot into office.
If one of these nitwits should get elected it will be time to use our 2nd Amendment rights to take our freedoms back. I refuse to live under a socialist, especially a damn fool like these liberal dumbocrats.
What Booker and Swallwell propose is not unconstitutional. And why can’t Smits write?
The last time I heard of a “weapon of war” being used in a crime was when a cop murdrered his confidential informant with his duty M-16 because the informant had discovered he was a dirty cop and was going to report it. That occurred in the late 90s.
No need to worry. That jerk won’t be elected anyway!
Exactly, Martin. Neither Booker nor Swallwell have a chance of being elected.
