California Dem Swalwell Warns Gun Owners Gov't Could NUKE them if they don't comply with gun ban
2018-11-17
[Daily Caller] Democratic California Rep. Eric Swalwell suggested on Friday that the U.S. government could use nuclear weapons on its own citizens if they fight back against firearm confiscation.

Right-wing internet personality Joe Biggs tweeted at Swalwell in response to a May report that Swalwell wants to ban "military-style semiautomatic assault weapons" and prosecute gun owners who did not turn in their newly-banned weapons.

Biggs promised any such legislation would provoke a "war" between gun owners and the government, writing, "You’re outta your f*****g mind if you think I’ll give up my rights and give the gov [sic] all the power."

#9  Observation: I'm seeing zero push back or distancing from this by the Left. This then is their position. Plan accordingly

#5  Eric ought to see his therapist because he is sounding nuts. People such as him toss things around far too lightly and have no idea what the hell they are talking about.

#3  Control freaks who believe that without exception that the military is composed of mindless obedient automatons.

BTW, the weapon is not very good against dispersed targets but works best against concentrated ones.

#2  Well at least he's being honest.

The bulk of anti-gunners deny their true motives.

#1  Go ahead. Most likely more live Democrats will be lost but still will be voting.
