We cannot have big guns out here as far as the big guns that are out here, the semi-automatics and all of them. We can’t have those running around out here. Those are not hunting weapons. We should ban those in Iowa.

Even if you have them, I think we need to start taking them. We can’t have those out there. Because if they’re out there they’re just going to get circulated around to the wrong people. Those guns should not be in the public’s hands. There are just too many guns.

I have never lived in Iowa but found this noteworthy. This legislator Dan Muhlbauer is apparently a well known anti-gun law maker.

Does anyone think his ideas will get in traction in Iowa?
 
Funny... I can't recall the last time I circulated my guns around and they got in the wrong hands. Can anyone relate?
 
Some Iowans need to remind this politician that the 2nd amendment isn't about hunting. It's about keeping politicians in check.
 
Got family in Iowa and unfortunately most are Democrat but I guarantee you that they are not fans of this clown. Try to take their shotguns or fishing poles from them and you will see some mighty irate Bohunks.
 
Most of my mom's side of the family in Iowa lives in his district. I have no idea how they feel about the guy, but I know he didn't make many friends trying to take away their fancy expensive camo print semi-auto shotgun.
 
Right now, I'm living in SE Iowa. We used to have a quaint and charming tradition for politicians like this, involving their intimate acquaintance with tar, feathers, and a rail. It's what made the good ol' days good. :D:D:D
 
Gary, we used to have the same tradition here in Virginia. There sure are a good many who should be reintroduced to tradition. From what I understand somewhere around 1900 the entire city council for one Virginia city was run out of town on a rail as well as tarred and feathered. The current city council seems to have forgotten the past.
 
Wow that quote sounds like it was written by a 9 year old. It literrally just repeats the same sentence over and over. "There are too many guns"

A real linguist this one.

Am I the only one who thinks that amalgamation of words could have been articulated by a third grader? If you're going to argue a point as a lawmaker, at least have the ability to string together high school level paragraphs. Saying "we can't have those out there" a bunch of times just makes him sound like a moron.

Edit: Nickel Plated, we must have been posting at the same time:D.

I hate it when my guns escape and go running around and I have to spend half my day herding them back where they belong.

Who is this "we" you speak of? You got a mouse in your pocket? "I" am definitely not part of any "we" that is going to be taking things that are Constitutionally protected...... If you and your mouse are feeling froggy, well ..... that will be an interesting day, won't it?
 
Well thankfully the others support guns, ones family owns a gun shop I use in Mo. Valley.


Crazy people are everywhere. I gotta say if a gun ban makes a person all warm and fuzzy, that person is out of touch with reality cause the bad guys wont be giving theirs up....
 
Could be a lot of people.

That matters not, unless they are the Legislatures (or Constitutional Conventions) of 3/4 of the 50 States, and they vote to amend the Constitution to say that the RKBA can be infringed. That's the way it works.
 
That isn't going to get any traction.....

However, the anti gun people are drooling because they think some of their anti gun dreams might actually take root. I think they are all throwing everything they can against wall just hoping that some of it sticks.
 
I sent him an email, this was his reply.

Thanks for your letter.

The news article that was printed was not a true representation of how I feel.* There was very little said about gun control in the interview.* There are so many things that go into the Connecticut incident.
*
Mental Health being a huge part of, School Policies, Society and Guns.* The interview was about what could be done to prevent further shootings.* It was never about gun control, it was about protecting children in school.
*
I was asked, IF you could* stop this from happening would you be willing to take away guns?* My answer was, We are talking about 5 and 6 year olds here, IF you could stop all violence by doing that sure, BUT that will never happen, so we
need to focus on mental health, school policies, etc.* Only part of my statement was used!* The article was very slanted and does not represent my feelings

too late for that one
 
I live in Iowa. I don't know Dan Muhlbauer, but I doubt that he will gain much support. A lot of us Iowans like them big guns!

Oh, I understand that it has been infringed: I can't help that, as I only have control of "me".

But I took an oath, to Support and Defend .... until the COTUS sez different, I'll do that, regardless of cost. Should the POTUS give an order contrary to that, then well ..... that's not a Lawful Order, is it?

We live in Interesting Times, yes?
