The socialist form of government is getting ready to be crammed down our throats, there are shortages of goods and services, gun laws are some of the first things being talked about in the Biden regime, Biden the unifier is undoing everything that his predecessor accomplished, and alienating us.

I believe in our constitution. Our rights are violated on a regular basis. If the people don't act, we'll all be subjected to socialism/communism!

It states clearly shall not be infringed. Any law they create to restrict ownership of arms of any kind is an infringement of the 2nd amendment no if and or buts about it. there are no loop holes in the constitution for creating laws that restrict your ability to own any you desire

I feel that if the 2nd amendment is judged and limited, we will go down the path the 1st has- we are judging what speech is and is not okay in public forums, large media is allowed to silence what they don't like, etc. Stop and reflect on how you feel about any and all freedoms. What will be next?

If the federal government can't be depended upon to preserve constitutional rights, then let that responsibility fall upon the states.

I can literally go get an illegal gun on ten minutes if I wanted to. People have a right to legally defends themselves. Criminals don't care about your prohibition laws.

because federal gun laws and the creation of the ATF were/are direct violations of the spirit and letter of the law stated in the second amendment. To also include infringing on states rights which the federal government has systematically eroded since the conclusion of the civil war.

Quick, severe punishment except for those protecting their life, property, and that of innocent bystanders, while using a legally obtained/owned firearm.

States have sovereign rights and able to make the laws that fit our communities. Citizens of CA, MA, NY, etc should not dictate what laws Missourians live by. Disarming law abiding citizens or making law-abiding citizens whom are not able to pay the federal tax rates bend to the favor of the elite.

Gun ownership is given in the constitution and it should not be infringed upon. You should take away the illegal guns from felons before you take away my rights. They lost their rights when they became felons.

Logic and common decency in keeping our community safe. Enough innocent children have died. Selfishness and ignorance dictate the foolish ban of this law. These ridiculous actions are an embarrassment.

The Democrats, since Clinton have talked about doing what DOGE is not doing. Yes, Clinton and Obama did some EO, but always gave more lip service than action. Now we have action from Republicans' and still Democrat lip service.

Horrible what they are doing to people. I don't understand how firing people would take care of fraud and abuse. They are stripping people of their livelihoods and it will come back at us because the government will have to cover their unemployment stipends and we will have many more homeless ppl.

About 14.5% of the US workforce, or 20.2 million people, work in the public sector. This includes state, local, and federal government employees. That's way to many people working at a job that produces nothing.

Maybe you should turn of the news and research. Why pay 5 people to do the job of 1. Why keep lazy employees who don't produce when you can keep highly productive workers and increase there pay. See its called rewarding hard work and punishing lazy people. Hard work does pay off.

Elon is not an elected official, not even a cleared contractor for what he is doing. This sabotages democracy.

While often categorized as a democracy, the United States is more accurately defined as a constitutional federal republic.

Unilateral decisions from the Executive branch cannot go unchecked (on BOTH “sides”). Just like when Biden shouldn’t have bypassed the SC with student loan forgiveness. Democracy is fragile and we cannot lean towards dictatorship.
