Yes, sir, that is exactly correct. The British were effectively disarmed via incrementalism. They didn't have the history of an armed populace whose existence stemmed from the use of firearms, so it was simply easier to get them to go along with it. Now, you can be arrested in Jolly Old England for having a small pocket knife, if you "don't have a good need for it".

Re: Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick attacks NRA and Supports expanded background checks
Sounds like way too many folks messing around, one way or another. It's going to end up with Texas turning into California East, and I'm going to be forced to pull back across the Red River and live with them Okies.

Re: Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick attacks NRA and Supports expanded background checks
That right there, in red. All those laws, and yet how many of those laws are ever actually enforced, AS A PRIMARY CRIME? Sure, sometimes they use them as "tack-on charges" to run up the tally in court, but I mean prosecuting people who are breaking current firearms laws. We all know the truth, that very few ever face any trouble due to those laws...which really only burden those of us who aren't out committing any crimes. Lt. Governor Patrick needs to face reality about that, instead of trying to cover his political hide at the expense of the good people of Texas!crazy2medic wrote: ↑Mon Sep 09, 2019 9:19 pm Problems,with this, lying on a form 4473 is a felony yet few are prosecuted
If you have to take your gun sale to a licensed dealer what's to stop the dealer from taking an exorbant amount as his fee?
What about people who don't happen to live near a dealer?

Well, the time for us to vote against him is in the primary. If Dan Patrick is this bad, what do you think the Democrat who will run against him will want to do? Keep in mind people like Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Corey Booker, Pete Buttigieg, Francis Patrick O'Rourke, and the rest of crazy socialistic statists running for POTUS on the Democrat side.
