Whenever your Democrat friends condescendingly coo “nobody is coming for your guns”, just remember – they’re coming for your guns:
Gun owners in Minnesota had a pretty easy session last year. This year, the Dems have to try to turn out their base. Grabbing guns certainly gets the Karens and Mascists and ninnies of the left lathered up.
More this weekend.
Yet another reason why, even if a Democrat says he’s “moderate”, I can’t bring myself to vote for one of them if I can avoid it. They are caucusing with Team Lenin.
🥱 — still waiting for those coming (grabbing) for my firearms…. Nice fundraising tactic for the NRA and firearms lobby.
I have been around guns all of my life and at 59 yrs old I am amazed and disappointed to see the extremism that has developed. There is an attitude amongst many in America that everyone must carry a gun everywhere all of the time. It has become a sign of manhood and any restriction triggers calls of tyranny. I do not feel safe around untrained and or nervous people who are carrying a gun. Even if they are a “good guy”, they can be very dangerous. I have a CCW permit but I don’t “carry” except to go to the range. In all of my 59 years I have not been in a situation where having a gun would have helped me. It would have been excess weight. I’ve heard the old saying, “I’d rather have it and not need it that not have it and need it”. If that is your attitude why not carry a life jacket and a first aid kit. They could save a life too.
” I do not feel safe around untrained and or nervous people who are carrying a gun.”
this perfectly describes every vibrant member of our feral underclass with a gun that I’ve run across living in the Phillips Neighborhood over the last 50 years.
Yes, my upland bird and waterfowl guns could very easily take a life but I bought them with same lack of reason they’d be used for human confrontations as the same lack of reason I buy a car or groceries to harm another.
Rittenhouse and the McMichaels specifically had their guns with intent to possibly harm someone someday and have sullied all sports involving a firearm as millions of other couch commandos in their 5.11 tactical apparel have done with the NRA cheering it all on. Any person who feels a need to pack heat needs to examine the life that has so many enemies they feel a need to someday kill someone. A nation that is armed to its teeth and becoming more so but people feel less safe by the day.
^^ oh look, one of the Emery’s wet himself!
Are you off your meds again, Emery?
I’m also calling bullshit on your claims that you a. Have a conceal and carry permit and b. That you have ever even touched a gun.
This bill do nothing to prevent the ongoing gun crime spree in the Metro. I am having a hard time figuring out exactly which problem the law is intended to address. And they are definitely coming for your magazines:
Subd. 2. Prohibition.
It is unlawful for a person to manufacture, import, transfer, or
possess a large-capacity magazine.
I am sure that the limit of ten rounds in a magazine was chosen based on the most in depth scientific research imaginable.
Oh, and “military style assault weapon” is never defined.

@ BS429 — Aw, buddy, don’t get down on yourself. Why don’t you go kill a few dozen of the “feral underclass”, that always makes you feel better.
I cannot resist. Where can I get me these upland bird and waterfowl guns?
That, right there, tells you EVERYTHING you ever wanted to know about the veracity of the claim from the self-proclaimed expert at EVERTHING.
Regarding the claim that they’re not coming for our guns, I’ve personally viewed a number of the bills that would have done exactly that, and then you’ve got the examples of New York City, Washington DC, and Chicago, among others. So exactly why one would believe that this is not happening is beyond me, as it’s a matter of public record. You’ve also got the record of the Brady Campaign/Handgun Control/Violence Policy Center/whatever they’re calling themselves now now that they’ve been exposed…AGAIN.
And then you’ve got the reality that gun control’s been on the Democratic Party platform for decades. Yes, they aren’t as hard on the shotguns that are used for bird hunting–that would crimp their own supporters’ hobbies I guess–but if those were banned, how would President Biden threaten to shoot Girl Scouts coming to his home to sell cookies?
Honestly, Emery, it would be really nice if you started conforming your rhetoric to reality. This isn’t exactly subtle stuff here.

Every cop carries a gun.
I’m kinda impressed by this new threadjack tactic. Write one single sentence that simply denies the point of the post and the evidence provided, and then from that point on, anything goes.
jdm, where would the poor soulless troll be without threadjacks on SITD?
It’s life would be EMPTY
Besides, fake hispanic dude who ran for guv of Texas AND president said “hell yeah we are coming for your guns.”
Refute that troll.
Or just another threadjack?
BB: Can you seriously cite where a “gun-grabber” has attempted to remove your firearms? I’ve never had a gun-grabber knock on my door.
Here is the only gun-grabber that I’ve seen utilized.
https://www.thegungrabber.com/
Then the harpies and harridans on the view said “no, don’t tell them that before the election, wait until you are in office and THEN take the guns.”
So yeah troll, they are planning to try to take out guns.
So many facts for the poor troll to deal with this morning!
Emery; that very scenario is one big reason I’ve not chosen to interview for jobs in New York, Chicago, Washington DC, and California. Just because it hasn’t happened yet to me personally doesn’t mean that it’s not something gun owners need to be concerned about.
Honestly, by what logic does it make sense to wait until the Gestapo, Stasi, or KGB are at your door before one gets concerned about totalitarianism? It’s not like we don’t have a century of atrocities by totalitarian governments to remind us why our civil liberties, including the right to keep and bear arms, are important.
You’re quadrupling down on stupid at least here.
Remember folks, the Emerys are paid to be here. They are very likely AFSCME or MAPE members working in a political office in the state capitol. Clearly they bring a union mentality to every discussion. Fomenting incoherence on this and other sites is part of their job description. So, yeah troll got to threadjack.
The NRA and MBerg have been trotting out that tired fund raising argument for a lifetime. The tactic is as bankrupt as the NRA.
^^case in point, Emery trots out that great bugbear The NRA to smear SitD when anyone who has been paying attention for the last 5 years knows the NRA has been effectively neutralized, for meaningful gun-rights advocacy GOA has been doing the heavy lifting.
^ So, which part are you denying. That there is a Rep. Steve Sandell, that there is a HF 2705, or that this is Minnesota?
^ I was using HF wax (highly fluorinated ski wax) last year. This year the HF wax grabbing liberals outlawed its use. Go figure.

“Rittenhouse and the McMichaels specifically had their guns
with intent to possibly harm someone somedaydefend themselves from serious or lethal physical harm.”FTFY.
I don’t think the bill is serious. It would make it a gross misdemeanor if you failed to report a stolen gun. But only after Aug 1st. So what if the coppers find your gun on a criminal, they try to bust you, but you say “oh that got stolen in 2021, before the law was passed.”
It’s a joke legislation, probably introduced knowing it would get shot down in flames.
^ So then, you’re going with mindless denial in the guise of an attempt at cutsie-pie cleverness. Gotcha.
MP, you really, really think that DFL gun-control nuts wouldn’t have an absolute hard-on make it a gross misdemeanor if you failed to report a stolen gun. But only after Aug 1st? The silliness and complexity are features.
E’s argument: X hasn’t happened yet; therefore X will never happen.
That is not logical.
Yet again JD states the obvious. Are you sure you are an esquire and not a Captain?
SiTD: Posts article of DFLer saying “We’re coming for your guns”.
Emery: Squirrel.
SiTD readers: Threadjack.
Emery: I might shoot a squirrel. But not until it actually came to my door.
Good one, JPA.
Ditto, NW
The bill doesn’t even describe a method for determining what is and what is not a “military style assault rifle.”
Silly MP, it is a “gun”! And if it is a gun it does not matter if it is a “rifle” or a “shotgun” or a “revolver” or a “striker-fired handgun” or a “hammer-fired handgun”, full-auto, semi-automatic, single-shot, muzzle loader, break-action or bolt-action or magazine fed. If it is a gun, ie it fires a projectile and goes bang in the process, then it is fair game. Words matter. If you do not specify, EVERYTHING is a “gun” and EVERYTHING is a “military style assault rifle”.
Rat Emery served up: “my upland bird and waterfowl guns”
Lemme guess, Rat…your Henry Monk and your Parker Brothers side by’s, right? What do you call your matched pair of Brittany’s?
So, how’s the shredding going? For a veteran shredder dude such as yourself, seems like you you got a lot of time to post bullshit online.
Pffft. What a gaping asshole.
JPA Beat me to it: I cannot resist. Where can I get me these upland bird and waterfowl guns?
That, right there, tells you EVERYTHING you ever wanted to know about the veracity of the claim from the self-proclaimed expert at EVERTHING.
No shit. For everyone I hunt with, that’s “my shotgun”.
Rat is a caricature of Dill Harris in “To Kill a Mockingbird”. Insecure, trying so hard to impress, lying with every other word, but keeps tripping over his emotional damage.
Daddy issues, 10/10.
I take that back. Dill was intelligent enough to be ashamed of himself. Rat stumbles witlessly from one commode to another, without so much as a second thought.
The innocence of a child.

Democrats are convinced that the 2nd amendment is about using guns to hunt. Well, not really, they want to split the hunter second amendment advocates from the self-defense types. This does not work because a venn diagram would show the two categories have a lot of overlap, and even the non-overlap sections have close connections. If you are a big hunting guy you have friends and family who are big guns-for-self-protection advocates and vice versa. It is typical dem tone-deafness. Also the 2nd amendment has nothing to do with hunting. You could ban hunting with guns across the USA without running afoul of the 2nd amendment — unless you tried to ban guns themselves.
There really aren’t many shotgun-only hunters that don’t believe the NRA represents their rights. It is a misunderstanding about who the American people are that the dems have had since at least the 90s. They really do not understand America.
MP, of course this is not about hunting vs self-defense. Did we not have a large thread on things that go boom vs things that go twang? And then of course once those are banned, things that go slice will be next. And next… thud. And then – just the thought of going boom, twang, slice or thud.
Regarding hunters vs. those who hold that gun rights are human rights, it strikes me that educated hunters remember that in old Europe, the animals were “owned” by the aristocracy, but fed by the crops of the peasantry–who were in turn forbidden from hunting (Robin Hood etc..) under severe penalties. So in that demographic, we would anticipate very little separation between hunters and gun rights groups like the NRA.
And those same hunters, if I remember correctly, a startling lethality was shown when they went into combat in the Civil War, World War One, and World War Two. It is as if soldiers do better when they already know how to hit a target or something.
So they aren’t just ignorant of Americans, but of basic history. So much for the left being the “smart” people.
From JD’s link: “timeless English design”
Oh fuck, you *gotta* get one of those, rat.
“Democrats are convinced that the 2nd amendment is about using guns to hunt.”
MP, I can, and do, hunt without firearms. I’m damn good with a bow.
My firearms are to keep the forces of government oppression and tyranny back at least 300 yds from my position.
I was talking to a co-worker and friend today who is liberal and Jewish. She lives in another state, but we got to talking about the car-jackings here. I was surprised when she said, “I hope you’re going armed and protecting yourself.”
I told her that my official statement is that “Guns terrify me.” My official position, however, is FAFO. She didn’t know what the last part meant, and when I explained she laughed and said she’s going to use that.
Both she and her husband have carry permits, and she was delighted when I said that when the carjackers tried to hit the Jewish enclave of St. Louis Park, the bystanders put a quick stop to that. “You don’t mess with the Jews,” she said. “FAFO!”

I had never heard the term “FAFO,” so I looked it up in the urban dictionary, which gave some usage with this interesting footnote:
See: Byecep, Rosenbalmed, skateboard to a gunfight, FAFO.
