Apart from that, there is really nothing to talk about regarding
"gun control" advocates, and their payola they get to ARM THEMSELVES by
disarming US, or profiting from the NET PROCEEDS they get from gun grabbing
sales to the Gun Shops consignment sections.
These "destroyed" gungrabbed guns, are the ground work "base" of an
admission to (Policy) false statements made in ALL LAWS and
confiscations......therefore nearly ALL LAWS are redundant rules, and the
only remedy at this point is to NOT APPLY them, unless THEY are pointed at
the "very obvious" Criminal, who doesn't give a shit about all these laws,
and even sees RKBA as a useless LAW.....
