‘No It Didn’t’: Trump Still Supports Right to Bear the AR-15 After the Assassination Attempt
Good. I love my AR-15.
GOOD.
The left used former President Donald Trump’s assassination attempt to push a ban on the AR-15 (my favorite gun!).
Despite the fact that the shooter used one, people on the right didn’t call for a ban.
It also didn’t change Trump’s mind.
"Does the fact that somebody used an AR-15 gun [in the assassination attempt] at all change your impression of people's access to that weapon?"

In 2015, Trump changed his tune concerning guns like AR-15:
In his 2015 book “Crippled America,” Trump appears to have changed his position.
“Opponents of gun rights often use a lot of scary descriptive phrases when proposing legislative action against various types of weapons. Ban ‘assault weapons’ they say, or ‘military-style weapons,’ or ‘high-capacity magazines,'” he wrote. “Those all do sound a little ominous, until you understand what they are actually talking about are common, popular semiautomatic rifles and standard magazines that are owned and used by tens of millions of Americans.”

When the BLM rioters burned numerous American cities a few years ago, did the proggie loons call for banning fire?
Well, their climate agenda folks were already doing that, so it might have seemed redundant.
That’s because guns don’t kill people, other people do. The intent behind the action is what determines whether it’s good or evil.
A suitable mantra for the Left “Through individual weakness, we have community safety. Through individual helplessness, we have community security.”
Through individual strength I have safety because only an idiot would screw with me where I live
“Can’t do it because people need weapons for protection.”
In my opinion, it would have been better to say: “Can’t do it because the Constitution expressly forbids it.”
Agreed.
Ahh, to be perfect, such a burden
Or perhaps, “I have a God-given right to defend myself that can be neither granted nor taken away by man or government. Next week our quiz will be on the word ‘inalienable’. Go study!”
A gun is a tool, Marion, no better or no worse than any other tool, an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.
That there’s a good piece-a stump.
Trump gets shot in the face and his reaction is to continue to protect the civil rights of people including their God-given right to keep and bear arms.
Brits march in the streets against an overwhelming influx of immigrants to the UK and Keir Starmer’s reaction is to arrest anyone who shared the ‘wrong’ memes on social media.
We are not the same as the UK…..well, at least some of us are not the same.
This makes me feel even better about voting for that man. I think he’s put some steel into his principles.
we should use leftys logic back at them……..
if you kept all the violent criminals in jail
murder rates would be down 87%
lefty: back that up
patriots: dont answer them just keep repeating it
The Left preys on the ignorance of their voters…. many are also stupid but that can’t be fixed. Just be very glad the shooter was ‘influenced’ to use an AR style rifle…. the standard scoped “deer rifle” would have been far worse…. as with JFK and MLK. As for that “deer rifle”…. that will be on the ban list for being a “sniper rifle”…. no one needs a sniper rifle…. The Left wants to convert the 2A to be only in home self-dense where Uncle Joe Biden says on a shotgun is needed. No government provides the education and tools needed to overthrow it…. ask any communist country.
