The 2018 election results in Minnesota brought the Democrats into the majority in the House and kept a Democrat in the Governor’s office. As a result early legislation has carried a decidedly left leaning agenda including the introduction of two bills aimed at gun control – a hot button liberal issue and a staple of the party’s traditional platform. This type of political maneuvering is expected anytime one party or the other gains the voting advantage. Politicians make their living in St. Paul and in order to survive they must appease the voters that put them in office. |

The gun control crowd is delusional and illogical. They stand there all smiles, with honey drippin' from their lips, telling elected officials that they should break their Oath of Office to knowingly deprive law abiding citizens of their constitutionally protected rights. TITLE 18, U.S.C., SECTION 242 says that is a federal crime.

TO REMEMBER |
We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
