A Coup Is In Progress In America
A coup is underway in the United States, and we must stop pretending otherwise. The signs are unmistakable and accelerating: in just the past 48 hours, Elon Musk’s DOGE commission has seized …

I hate that I'm typing this...
People need to start buying weapons right now. It's not that I think we're at the "take up arms" phase. It's that I think we should be ready before they keep us from being able to.
With all the shit they're pulling with federal databases, I expect people are going to start being added to NICS (background check database) for political reasons.
When you get a NICS denial, there's no explanation of why it's was denied, but you can't buy a gun.
And it will alert the FBI that you tried.
Yeah they will absolutely try to deny gun ownership based on political affiliation
As a Libertarian who voted Democrat in the last several elections, I agree. tRump is not as pro 2A as he claims, he's fine with "his" people being armed, but I could totally see him trying to block others from gun purchases, especially if he sees them as "enemies" to his cause.
If that happens. Theres going to be a huge influx of gun shows.
FYI, the "Gun Show Loophole" isn't a real thing. Dealers still have to fill out a 4473 and run a background check at gun shows. There's even a checkbox for it on the 4473.
What there is is a private sales loophole, where individuals can sell a gun on the secondary market.
That doesn't require a gun show.
Stop being pedantic. The only reason there is so many dealers at them is because of all the private sales in the first place.
They are a common meet-up place for private sellers, but it does nothing for dealers. The secondary market is bad for dealers.
You really don't seem to know what you're talking about.
Private sellers are not required to do background checks according to federal law. States are free to require private sellers to do background checks, but half of the states do not require them.
That's what I said. Prialvate sellers are not dealers, and private sales don't have to be performed at gun shows.
And there are still legal requirements. For instance, it's illegal to sell or gift a person a pistol if they live in a different state.withput going to a dealer and transferring it through them with a background check. You also cannot sell or give away a firearm that isn't legal in the state in which the transfer is taking place or in the state of legal residence of the person taking ownership of the firearm.
When I was in firearm sales, we had spreadsheets for every gun in our inventory listing the states of residence in which it could be legally sold.
Additionally, you have to follow the transfer regulations of both states. So if someone from New Jersey wanted to buy a hunting rifle from the store where I worked, we had to run a New Jersey background check, fill out New Jersey paperwork, and review their New Jersey firearms license. If there was a waiting period in their state, we had to honor it.
If private sales are banned (NICS check requirements are private sales bans because civilians don't have access to NICS) in someone's home state, buying it privately in a different state is a crime.
Fun additional fact: In Texas we also had to report to the feds anytime someone purchased more than one semi-auto centerfire rifle of 22 caliber or greater in a 5-day period, or more than 1 handgun in a 5-day period. That's a regulation only in effect in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California.
Lmao no conservative in this country would be for a gun ban. Ever. They might suck the orange balls but they suck their gun muzzles even harder while saying the 2nd amendment out loud. This scenerio would never happen.
Conservatives aren't the ones that will be banned. They'll target liberals and the conservatives will joke that the dems should be happy for finally getting gun control for themselves.
US gun control started under Governor Reagan when black people started buying them.
That won't happen as long as they make sure you can buy all the guns you'd ever want as long as you stay on the RIGHT side of anything political.
