LINK Beto O’Rourke says AK-47 and AR-15 owners will ‘have to sell them to the government’ if he becomes president

Looking for votes? What a dumb idea! Gun owners should feel a distorted sense of patriotism and sell their coveted weapons of war ... willingly? In a world filled with fear, who would do that?

That will work perfectly, just look at how we won the war on drugs.🙄

If they tried that in Switzerland, the whole country would fall over laughing at them!

In Switzerland all the weapons and ammunition are kept in a locked armory, similar to our National guard. No one keeps even a hunting shot gun in their homes.

They tried that in Vancouver, B.C. once. I think they got THREE respondents. They also tried it in Los Angeles, where all they got were stolen, or broken guns Most gun owners are too smart for that trick!

I believe you are mistaken, there is a program in Toronto that as of 27 may 2019 had 2700 weapons turned in, the numbers in the BC program are lower and it is only for weapons that are no longer needed and they don't keep records.

Beto isn't who people think he is right now he is just making noises hoping to gain a larger following for the next time he runs for office. He will say anything at this point but keep in mind most of the money for his campaign is coming from the same people who made this mess including the Third Way organization that was founded by and funded in part by the Koch brothers...
The only way to get rid of those weapons of war is not supply side it is demand side in the solution. If you have effectrive background checks and add the terrorist watch list to the database then declare members of White Supremacist organizations and Anti-Government militias to be terrorists the wannabes who buy those types of guns will no longer be able to buy them...
With no demand production of those weapons stops... Buy backs will only work for the ones who are either starving or not members of those groups....

Buy back program - hopefully decent gun owners!

It's the "decent" gun owners that will be accosted by the bad gun owners. That's one problem right there.

Right now, the betting odds give him less than a 1% chance of becoming President, so I'd say let's wait until he is at 10% or more before we worry about what he says.

Oh oh will spell trouble for him

He must have lost points on that. But why do people own them. I agree, the fear filled country would make people hold on or even buy more assault weapons to fight off those they are brainwashed to fear, or even the government with Trumps 4th of Juky military parade and bromance with murderous dictators.
