Quote:Ben Jealous, the Democratic gubernatorial candidate in Maryland, said banning firearms like the AR-15 may not be enough to stop shootings. He said it's time to look at shotguns following the shooting at the Capital Gazette newspaper office in Annapolis.

The shooter used a shotgun to kill five staff members of the newspaper.

“We will, in the next [Maryland] legislative session, have to have a real conversation about how we finish the job here of our assault weapons ban,” Jealous said. “But we have to go much further. Journalists were killed with a shotgun.”

But they aren't coming for our guns!

Britain already bans knife outside the home. Maybe at some point that's next. How about trucks?

Haven’t they stopped saying that? It seems like the last year or two, the old “I’m not coming to take your guns” line has been abandoned by most Democrats.

They aren't saying Impeach Trump either but it's still on their agenda. The only nut job saying it is Madsin Waawaas

Yes but in one case (Trump impeachment) it’s their silence which is meant to create an illusion (the illusion that they don’t fully intend to impeach Trump at the first opportunity, when we all know that they do); in the the other case (guns) it’s their sound-bite that was meant to create the illusion (the illusion that they support private control of firearms, when we all know that they don’t), and it seems that fewer of them are saying it now.

I'm guessing democrats won't be happy till we're limited to sling shots. Interesting, shotguns are by far the most used gun for hunting, used for small game like rabbits and squirrels as well as all kinds of fowl (ducks, quail, pheasant). So now democrats are on record wanting to ban handguns, semi-automatic rifles (assault weapons) now shot guns. There aren't many guns left other than flint lock rifles.

He just Jealous of our kickass firearms.
