Wow.
So many extremely far-fetched things to be worrying about.
On Christmas.

If you've bought a gun in the last what.......50 yrs.....you've filled out the paperwork and that is filed and researchable, especially now in the day of the computer.
Play those records and comforts against gun ownership, threaten their continuance if one does not comply, it's easy to see how compliance could be obtained.
Gun rights are more expansive now than at any time in the last 50 years. Plenty of liberals and Democrats oppose gun control.
It is simply not a priority for the Democrats.
Obama didn't do anything (actually expanding gun rights)
then there is no reason to expect Biden to do so
When Robert O'Rourke shouted, "hell yes, we're going to take your AR-15," nobody so much as shrugged.

Exactly, many Democrats and Liberals are gun enthusiasts and oppose gun control. Gun rights advocates do not need to be divided along party lines, this is only a recent historical phenomenon, and the way that pro-gun people are portrayed has been thoroughly manipulated by the sensationalist media and also the self-serving NRA. I tried to post a poll here to see if we could get an idea of how we lean politically in the firearms community, but it got shut down : / . I think it would have been very insightful.Gun rights are more expansive now than at any time in the last 50 years. Plenty of liberals and Democrats oppose gun control. Liberals and minorities are buying guns at historic rates. It is simply not a priority for the Democrats. Yes, yes, some statements were made to appease Bloomberg's group, but, let's face it, if Obama didn't do anything (actually expanding gun rights), then there is no reason to expect Biden to do so.
"Confiscation" is a red herring designed to pitch American against American. I get the NRA doing it, as they are trying to raise money for their salaries and bonuses, but for thinking Americans, this is not a time to look for another divisive issue. It is an excuse to find another reason for American to hate American. Shameful . . .
So the gun ban and confiscation laws that the coming administration could put into place would probably be undone a couple of election cycles later when the other party is back in power. That's what happened with the Federal Assault Weapons Ban of 1994 (Clinton), that expired in 2004 under Bush.

This is factually wrong. Among the things he did (or tried to do) to restrict ownership:
banned the importation of 7n6 ammunition
banned the importation of Russian weapons
blocked the importation of surplus weapons from Korea
ruled that silencer wipes were NFA weapons
tried to get the Social Security Administration involved in disqualifying buyers
I'm not seeing it in a number of states. I think those who live in "free" states have a tendency to overlook what's happening in other states. There are states where ARs, AKs, and similar "assault weapons" cannot be bought or sold. There are states where ALL firearms transfers are subject to background checks and/or must go through an FFL. There are states in which ALL firearms sales get reported to the state police. There are states (many, and the list grows every year) that have "red flag" laws, under which almost anyone can make a complaint about you and the police will come and take away your guns -- BEFORE you have had a hearing. Before youj even know that a complaint has been made. The scary part is that legislators AND JUDGES in these states think these red flag laws are constitutional.44 AMP said:I keep hearing this, and maybe its true, if you take everything in the entire nation into account, but I'm sure not seeing this in my home state.
