National CC Act would be unnecessary if the 2nd Amendment was fully accepted.
Magazine capacity should only be of concern to manufacturers and consumers.
Michigan, good luck and hope you become # 30. POTG take the time to contact your representatives and urge support of House Bill 5653.
New Jersey cities you are doing the right thing. Carry permits should never have started in the first place.
Alabama the left can’t stand it when POTG get a break; but the left doesn’t have any problem wasting tax $ of POTG on expenses for the useless politicians.
Virginia, good luck POTG you’re gonna need it.
GRIP, yep we all need to get a grip and do all we can to prevent a further invasion of privacy. Besides the IRS already has a list of tax payers which should be enough.
Suppressor ownership is none of their business.
Cornyn speaks with a forked tongue.
In summary none of this would be even a flea on the mind of a politician if they would fully comply with their ‘oath of office’.
Got over a century of culture to change and a lot of foreign/domestic threats to remove before that is likely to have a chance. On the up end mass media that serves the ones pushing against rights has taken a nosedive in popularity especially with anyone under 55.
Unfortunately the corporate media knows this, that’s why they’re taking over the podcast space. Netflix already has its own “podcast” section.
Dems take back power and you’ll rapidly see all the “unapproved” voices disappear.
The new and improved TTAG sucks
Indeed it does!
