Skipping the election?

If you are contemplating the thought of skipping this election, and not casting your ballot on November 7th, please consider the following quote by Sara Brady, "This is the opportunity we've been waiting for." Senator Charles Shumer (D) and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D) are masterminding a campaign to overturn the pro-gun majority and here is just a small taste of what may be in store for us:
  • Federal Arsenal License: to possess more that 20 firearms a special $300 "federal arsenal license" will be required along with law enforcement approval and extensive background check
  • To get the "arsenal license" you have to allow home inspections by BATFE agents 3 times a year
  • Small caliber pistols and revolvers would be banned
  • Ammunition determined to be non-sporting would be banned & magazines could only hold six rounds
  • Waiting periods and gun rationing would take place with a national 7-day wait period
  • Registration combined with fingerprinting, fees, and fire safety courses, to obtain two year licenses

Former President Ronald Reagan said it best, "You won't get gun control by disarming law-abiding citizens. There's only one way to get real gun control: disarm the thugs and the criminals, lock them up, and if you don't actually throw away the key, at least lose it for a long time".
