Thinking like this is equal to telling a girl to jump up and down after sex to keep her from getting preggo.

Mitch Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 If that all sounds like a bad idea to you, please take the time to email your senators and representatives. Ask them to please oppose ALL legislation regarding gun control. http://www.house.gov/representatives/find/ http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm?State=OH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koolrayz Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 My sources tell me they have been cataloging the pictures of guns that have been posted on facebook. They will use this and other information to cross reference the people that have registered their guns to insure compliance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffro Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 So is it now illegal to own a magazine that holds more than 10 rounds? Buy 10 9 round magazines. :gabe: I feel like the feds are just "trying" to do something so people will shut the fuck up. There is probably a fairly small percentage of the population speaking out and the anti-gun media is sucking it up. A serious war would be started if guns all together were banned.
