As Mr O’Rourke continued to chastise the governor, another man on stage called him a “sick son of a b****” who would “come to a deal like this to make a political issue.”
Nothing in this country is ever political nor should it be :grillman:

Lol when asked how the guns will be given back to the government, he said he trusts that Americans will abide by the law and hand them over voluntarily
He’s actually not entirely wrong on that one. Gun restrictions in America over the past 100 years have largely involved a compliant public handing over their high capacity magazines or whatever once the restriction is put into place. Shootouts involving cops seizing illegal arms are quite rare and usually huge national stories, like Waco or Ruby Ridge or something.
Complete seizure of all guns though would probably be different yeah. Can’t imagine that happening.
When they outlawed bump stocks, multiple police departments reported that no one showed up to turn it in
Has anyone actually handed over their guns, though? No red state has ever tried serious restrictions, and the only places that are really disarmed are Californian cities and the Coptocracy of New York City. Even Chicago still has a lot of guns. Everyone else is strapped to the fucking gills. There are red states that have laws on the books preventing local authorities from cooperating with the feds on anything related to firearms.
Like, in good faith; Do you know of any cases where there has been meaningful, observable compliance with gun control legislation?
