The Goal of Gun Control is Confiscation

D. Parker at the American Thinker has an article today asking Confiscation: Why Isn't The Far Left Honest About Their End Game On Guns? Spoiler alert: because if they were honest about the end point of their "common sense gun safety" claims, the public wouldn't buy them. The Left does everything in its power to attempt to build a gun registry, by hook or by crook. The registry then provides a convenient way to track down the guns. And of course, if a few eggs must be broken, isn't that how you make an omelet?

Leftists keep on lying about their true goals on guns to get everyone to accept the intermediate steps to confiscation.

What is the far left’s end game on guns? Anyone on the pro-freedom right side of the political spectrum has known this answer for years. Gun confiscation has always been the ultimate goal of every collectivist authoritarian down through history since firearms were invented, from the Bolsheviks, and National Socialist German Workers' (Nazi) Party, to the Democrats and every leftist extremist in between.

And yet, leftists and the nation’s socialist media still play the gaslighting game of pretending they only want “common sense gun reform” or safety or whatever’s the deception du jour this week. Do they expect us to accept their lie that “No one is talking about confiscating guns” when we’ve documented they’ve been talking about that for 30 years? And despite their ever-creative writing, we understand unconstitutional ‘red flag’ orders are nothing but gun confiscation without due process.

If they were honest about their ultimate goal, no one would fall for the intermediate steps. Incremental moves that do nothing to reduce “gun violence” are only useful in advancing toward controlling and confiscating guns. They want absolute control over your private property (guns, gas stoves, generators, etc.) with unconstitutional “universal background checks” so they can impose universal gun registration. Which ultimately leads to universal gun confiscation.

But, let’s consider what they said out loud when they thought they had the tyrannical winds at their back ten years ago, during a perfect storm for gun control in the early months of 2013. Barack Hussein Obama had just been re-selected as president and the tragedy at Sandy Hook elementary school in Connecticut had just taken place. It was a perfect launching point for Obama’s second term to go after our God-given civil right of self-defense. The far left was feeling their oats, and they weren’t being shy about finally trotting out the ‘C’ word, starting with that paragon of women’s rights, former NY Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo: “Confiscation could be an option. Mandatory sale to the state could be an option.”

If you only read or watched the mainstream Democrat party media you might believe it when they say "nobody is talking about taking away your guns." But unfortunately for them, the internet never forgets, and we have the receipts.

The first one entitled: How to Ban Guns: A step by step, long term process, talks about setting up a scheme to make it easy to register your guns, so they can set up a national gun registry. Of course, this would do nothing to “reduce gun violence”; it would only help in the next step, confiscating guns. They would also outlaw private sales of guns so that you would have to buy them through official channels to add it to the registry so - you guessed it - it can be confiscated later. Are you detecting a theme in all of this ‘gun safety’ talk?

There's another one, even more radical than that. Gentle readers are encouraged to go read it.  The point is that gun confiscation has been the goal of the leftist gun grabbers all along. They realized that if they just came out and said it, no one would buy into it. So instead, they lie hoping to fool us into slowly limiting our own self-defense. We cannot let them do this to us. The late Mike Vanderboegh said "not one more inch." I think our goal should be to return to the people all our God given rights, including our 2nd Amendment rights.
