    Time and again we are told "nobody wants to take your your guns" and "all we want is "common sense" gun control." We'll folks, here it is... again.

    tbh its ridiculous that the gun control movement has to take such a soft tone.

    Yes gun control moves the voluntarily giving up or the forcible removal of banned weapons.

    if you community ever gets to a stage where it is safe enough to walk around without guns and gun control is implemented you will be happier for it (americans on the whole, obviously those who just love shooting would be mightily unhappy about it all)

    Well we wouldn't want fascists to not be able to use their more forcible tone in their PSA's.

    Forcible removal huh?

    Maryland's assault weapons ban was just tossed out by the 4th district court. This will be rendered unconstitutional as well. As well Highland Park IL

    Why did you come to America papabear ? why don't you return to your original planet of origin or don't they not want you anymore ?

    Since you are so unhappy here in the land of the free, and you are not brave and don't wanna live free, move to China why don't you ?

    One extremist example does not define the entire gun control position. There have been cities that have tried to mandate that EVERYONE is required to own a gun. They do not define the pro gun movement either......I hope.

    So you want to use guns to take guns away from people who never committed a crime with their guns.

    Makes sense.

    Well, if the given criteria is,

    That includes virtually every semi auto that accepts a magazine. A Ruger 10/22 is normally sold with a 10 round mag, but after market mags accommodating 20, 30, and more rounds would qualify for confiscation. As would virtually every Glock, or any gun for which after market 10+ mags are produced.

    But, how would they know who has what. Their attempt at the registration of black guns has less than 5-10% compliance.

    Well, you get political morons attempting to introduce similar legislation all the time...they get their few minutes of press and then the introduced bills never get to the vote. In this case when they say they in reference to Lexington in this article, what is really happening is it is one person introducing a bill. But, it does show the need for continual vigilance agaist those with continual attemps to chip away at our Constitutional rights, those protected by the 2A just being but one of those rights.

    If this is correct, then why are the less extreme members of the group condemning such a position? Why are they not assuring the voting public that such a position is in no way what they advocate for?

    banoid schemes cannot be implemented without relying on people with guns to enforce said schemes

    one of the real ironies of the banoid movement

    Yep, the level of testosterone within the banoids seems to be significantly lacking.

    Actually, all those soy lattes reduces testosterone levels and increases estrogen levels, maybe if the process is reversed, they might in time come to find firearms acceptable.

    Gun control is unpopular on a national scale, which is why those who seek it must take baby steps, when they have the testicular fortitude to take any steps at all.

    First, it's a town and has no affect on anyone out side of Lexington. Anyone arguing against another town in another state is arguing against state's rights and even worse, town rights. Banning guns that are already legal in other places does no good. They will find out it doesn't but it's their choice.

    Sorry to inform you, States and Municipalities do NOT have rights, they have Authority and power granted them, individual citizens have rights accorded them.

    Ha ha.....sure....I guess you forgot there was a tenth amendment..
    Dime store lawyer jumping on your rendition of what "rights" are instead of looking at the real issue.

    Highland Park succeeded in avoiding a Supreme Court ruling on banning assault weapons. Lexington is following suit by doing the same thing.
    Whose fault is that ? Yours and the NRA for steadfastly supporting easy access to weapons By kids, criminals and lunatics. Some towns see nothing happening and started a movement they hope will catch on.
    As long as the Supreme Court does not rule on it, it is the town's perogative to make laws that wish to enforce until The court does. You don't like it, look in the mirror.

    No one supports unsupervised access to firearms by children. No one supports violent criminals possessing guns.

    Simply because something is occurring in another town is not reason to address and oppose it if there is a significant possibility of harm resulting from its implementation.

    The tenth amendment has been eviscerated by the supreme court, rendering it all but null and void.

    And the state of Massachusetts has been told that their similar prohibition is unconstitutional for violating the second amendment.

    Cite it then. Show us the official publications of the NRA that prove they support easy access of firearms by minors, criminals, and lunatics. Show us that your argument is indeed valid, rather than made up to suit your position.

    A process that has grown unacceptable in some states, and resulted in the passage of firearms preemption laws, stripping cities and municipalities of any and all authority under which they would attempt to implement their own firearm laws.

    And if the state attorney general tells them they do not have the authority to do such, what then?
