The stupid is burning…

This is just getting more and more ridiculous…

Anti-Second Amendment advocate and Hillary for President 2008 Co-Chair Terry McAuliffe issued Executive Order 50 in Virginia yesterday morning.  Knowing that he can’t get his gun control agenda through the Virginia General Assembly, Governor McAuliffe appears to be following President Obama’s model of bypassing the legislative process by using executive order.  In a plan that masquerades as a “tough on crime” proposal by parroting the National Rifle Association’s call to enforce existing laws, the Virginia Governor openly attacked law-abiding gun owners by prohibiting concealed and open carry of firearms in executive office buildings throughout the state.

And more from the NRA on Hildabeast’s gun confiscation statements…

Hillary Admits Gun Confiscation is ‘Worth Looking At’
Fairfax, Va.— Hillary Clinton said at a New Hampshire Town Hall today that gun confiscation is something “worth looking at.” Discussing the firearms confiscation program in Australia, Clinton admitted she would consider implementing such a system in America.

 A voter asked, “Recently, Australia managed to get away, or take away tens of thousands, millions, of handguns. In one year, they were all gone. Can we do that? If we can’t, why can’t we?”

 Mrs. Clinton responded by describing Australia’s program, and then said, “I think it would be worth considering doing it on the national level, if that could be arranged.”

 Chris Cox, executive director of The National Rifle Association’s Institute for Legislative Action, said, “This validates what the NRA has said all along. The real goal of gun control supporters is gun confiscation. Hillary Clinton, echoing President Obama’s recent remarks on the same issue, made that very clear.”

 Clinton’s call for gun confiscation follows recent comments she made at a private fundraiser late last month. While expressing support for a ban on commonly owned semi-automatic firearms, Clinton stated her belief that the Supreme Court wrongly held that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual right to self-defense.  In her own words: “…the Supreme Court is wrong on the Second Amendment. And I am going to make that case every chance I get.”

 “Hillary Clinton just doesn’t get it. The NRA’s strength lies in our five million members and the tens of millions of voters who support the Second Amendment,” Cox said.  “A majority of Americans support this freedom, and the Supreme Court was absolutely right to hold that the Second Amendment guarantees the fundamental, individual right to keep and bear arms.  Hillary Clinton’s extreme views are completely out of touch with the American people.”

And this IS verified… HERE! Sigh…

I’m just going to go curl up in the corner until 2017….

  1. Hey Old NFO;

    She will try IF she gets elected….I and many others will disobey any gun control laws. If they want my guns, they will have to work for it.

  2. I’m not sure McAuliffle has the authority to make such an executive order stick – the Constitution of the Commonwealth is pretty specific on RKBA, which is why courthouses in Virginia have the metal detectors at the courtroom doors instead of the courthouse door. It should at the very least produce a lawsuit against the Commonwealth and specifically against McAuliffe.

      • Prof Hale:

        It’s been some time since I lived in Manassas, but the detectors were on the third floor outside the courtroom doors then. The issue was, first, Constitutional carry as specified in Article I, Section 13 and Code of Virginia 18.2-308, where the phrase “not hidden from common observations” exists; citizens could not be denied the right to possess and carry firearms (openly, as required) nor could they be denied access to government records and services which existed in the courthouse.

        I don’t doubt things have changed since I left; I wonder how the article and statute are dealt with now.

  3. They will fiddle while Rome burns. It’s been done before. Sic semper tiranus…

  4. 1. Import tens of millions of violent people from the third world who are incapable of supporting themselves in the modern world any other way than by criminal enterprise.
    2. Import millions of Moslems with cultural attitudes that include sexually molesting your children.
    3. And you want to do WHAT with my ability to defend myself and my family?

    The Dems would have been so much farther ahead if they had controlled the borders and taken advantage of decades long decline in violent crime. Then they could have made the arguments that “the USA is a really safe place and getting safer, you don’t need guns like you used to, so voluntarily give them up.”

    Instead, their policies have convinced millions of ordinary Americans to go out and buy their first gun and to stock up on ammo to levels undreamed of by the NRA and gun manufacturers.

  5. Were Democrats lying when they called conservatives crazy for believing Democrats want to take everyone’s guns away?

    Or was Hillary just lying to Democrats?

    Actually, both. Democrats were lying about not wanting to take guns, and Hillary is lying to Democrats. But it works for them because some people truly enjoy being lied to.

  6. Yeah…no. In case you didn’t hear that the first time – NO. And if I say anything else I’ll have to go to confession. Or have my mouth washed out with soap.

  7. But if we just passed stricter gun control laws we’d be safer, because Dontray and his buddies would surely obey the new ones just as much as they obey the existing ones.

    Oh, wait…

    • No, we should pass laws against murder and assault, no matter what you use as a weapon. Oh, wait…

  9. Gun confiscation was put in place immediately after Hurricane Katrina. Never forget! It can, and will happen if the progressives fet their way.
