wayne lapierre is out of his fucking mind - 'We will never surrender our guns'

[Warpy]

3. That's why we need the two pronged approach

of taxing ammo and requiring liability insurance on guns.

Make it cheap to own non auto long guns and prohibitively expensive to own the ones used in mass slaughter of human beings by angry young men.

Gun nuts like La Pierre who fancy themselves defenders of freedom against an overreaching government haven't exactly thought standing up to tanks and bombers with their little popguns through. This isn't a patriotic stand for freedom, it's a two year old screaming because Mama decided his blankie needed to be washed and tried to take it away from him.

You can't fight the military with popguns. You have to convince them they're on the wrong side. You also can't mount a program of gun confiscation without turning into a police state, at least temporarily. You have to convince these guys through their wallets that some guns are liabilities to own.
