John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry[nb 1] was an effort by abolitionist John Brown, from October 16 to 18, 1859, to initiate a slave revolt in Southern states by taking over the United States arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia (since 1863, West Virginia). It has been called the dress rehearsal for, or Tragic Prelude to the Civil War.[3]: 5

Any attempt by this administration / Democrats to pull a gun grab will result in a civil war. The reason MSNBC is doing this is to carry water for the Democrats and nothing more. I always find it odd that we have a series of mass shootings and they always occur when Dems are trying to restrict the 2nd amendment.

Anyone else notice that between jan 20, 2017 and jan 20, 2021, we were not having these types of shootings...except in places like Chicago? There were some, but not like the past few weeks. Don't know what changec.

I really don't think they need to ban guns, why fight the second amendment. Instead, ban reloading tools, and mandate that every bullet made requires a serial number on the bullet and cartridge, then also require that each bullet be entered into a database,

and put a 10 dollar tax on each bullet. They accomplish the same thing in a next stage way, as it forces bullet manufacturers out of the country, which then will force gun manufacturers out of the country. While that is being implemented, add a 10,000 dollar tax to each gun imported to the USA. This basically eliminates weapons from out of the country. That means you are left with the current weapons, and you have gun control.

If you can afford a gun, sure you can still get one.

So mission accomplished, and realistically if your a criminal, you are still going to do the same old same old, and nothing changes, except the fact that you may have less school shootings as a result. That said though, you raise the street price on guns, which means that criminals are going to be more choosy on who they sell their guns too, and you leave the guns in the cartels, vs the run of the mill criminal. You don't boil a toad immediately, start with cold water and warm it up slowly
