Leaked DOJ memo on gun confiscation

[BDKJMU]

"...large capacity magazine regulation needs to sharply curtail their availability
to include restrictions on importation, manufacture, sale, and possession. An exemption for previously
owned magazines would nearly eliminate any impact....."

....requiring gun registration......

.....The existing stock of assault weapons is large, undercutting the effectiveness of bans with exemptions.....

.....a complete elimination of assault weapons would not have a large impact on gun homicides......

......Since assault weapons are not a major contributor to US gun homicide and the existing stock of guns is
large, an assault weapon ban is unlikely to have an impact on gun violence. If coupled with a gun
buyback and no exemptions then it could be effective........"

Thats right- they want a forced buyback with no exceptions for guns and magazines that were previously legally purchased.

What they want to do is insignificant; it won't happen.

What IS significant in the memo is the admission that restrictions on assault (scary looking) weapons won't have an appreciable effect on gun homicide rates.

While I agree with you on the insignificance of their desire actions right now, they still fall under the premise of "death by a thousand paper cuts"...

People paranoid about guns will never stop trying to win the ultimate prize, regardless of any study...facts do not matter, only feelings...


Now I feel like breaking out in song..,.

FEELINGS, NOTHING MORE THAT FEELINGS....

It does seem to be a bit of a fruitless effort to go after assault weapons if it will not have an appreciable effect on gun homicides. It seems that the government would be better served going after regulation that would have an appreciable effect on gun homicides. After all, it's about reducing violence.

That would absolutely be par for the course for this president.

Yup, and the bad guys will just turn in their guns.

Here's a gun that wasn't turned in:

"A 4-year-old Houston boy fatally shot himself with his father's stolen handgun Sunday morning, police say.

Marquiez Deshon Pratt, 21, was asleep on the couch when his son, Jaiden, picked up the gun and shot himself in the stomach, according to a report from the Houston Police Department.

The weapon, a .40-caliber semiautomatic pistol, was stolen during a burglary in 2011, according to the police report."

The officers who followed Pratt into his apartment discovered marijuana and crack cocaine along with weighing scales and other items used to sell drugs, according to the police report.

Author Quotes Then-Professor Obama Saying, 'I Don't Believe People Should Be Able To Own Guns'

By Gregory Gwyn-Williams, Jr.

In his new book, At the Brink, economist and author John Lott Jr., assesses the presidency of Barack Obama and recalls conversations regarding gun laws they had while working at the University of Chicago.
In Chapter Three, Mr. Lott discusses gun-control and takes the reader back to his time at the University of Chicago, where he and then-professor Barack Obama spoke on numerous occasions about guns in America.

"I don't believe people should be able to own guns," Obama told Lott one day at the University of Chicago Law School.

Lott explains that he first met Obama shortly after completing his research on concealed handgun laws and crime.

"He did not come across as a moderate who wanted to bring people together," Lott writes.
After he introduced himself to Obama, Lott suggested that they have lunch one day to discuss their views on guns. According to Lott, Obama "grimaced and turned away." That was the way many conversations with Obama ended, Lott says.

Although the Law School was famous for the openness of its faculty and friendly engagement, Lott says, "Obama...preferred silent, scowling disdain to collegiality."

President Barack Obama describes his views on guns much differently now that he is on the national stage, Lott believes, pointing to an interview on Fox News in which Obama states, "I have said consistently that I believe that the Second Amendment is an individual right."

But, Lott isn't convinced:

"Despite his assurance to Fox News that he understands the Second Amendment, it's a good bet that the positions Obama took on guns during his time at Chicago reveal his true convictions."

The chapter documents the actions that Obama has taken on guns, citing the following:
• In 1996, Obama supported a ban on handguns
• In 1998, he supported a ban on the sale of all semi-automatic guns
• In 2004, he advocated banning gun sales within five miles of a school or park, which would have shut down nearly all gun stores

Mr. Lott concludes the chapter, titled, "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered," writing, "Barack Obama is the most anti-gun president ever. That claim is based not on my own interactions with him back in the 1990's but on his own public record over many years."
He ends with a warning:

"The greatest threat is in his [Obama's] power to reshape the federal courts...Each appointment to the Supreme Court could determine whether the people are allowed to keep their guns."
