Kasich rolls over on guns

You can't be a 2nd Amendment supporter and want restrictions at the same time. It doesn't work like that. Just another idiot big gov't politician.
 
The opportunity to exploit media bias to seem like he is still relevant was just to much for him too pass by.

My dad used to tell a story: A guy is in a bar talking to a beautiful woman, he asks her would you sleep with me for $10,000,000? She thinks it over and purrs yes. He then asks would you sleep with me for $10? Indignant, she replies "what do you think I am." He answers: We have established what you are, now we are just negotiating the price.

with the exception of the TEC-9, every gun they used was legal under the AWB of 1994 and the NFA, im pretty sure. the hi point (LMAO) carbine they used had a pistol grip but wasnt banned because the magazine wasnt seperate from the grip.

Nothing new here. A politician is out of touch with real people. I don't care if he has an "R" after his name, he is also part of the problem.

That is a brilliant observation. It should also give some food for thought to those who complain about President Trump's every move.
 
He really behaves like a petulant child.
He pushed to get the convention in Ohio until he wasn't the nominee, then he did a complete no show on a national convention in his home state.
Reason I'm pissed is I helped out on his last campaign.
I wouldn't vote for this two faced bastard for dog catcher now.

Since he was a Congressman he has moved so far left...he reminds me of the present socialist pope, but Kasich wants to be a saint, I don't think the pope cares to be one.

Kasich is a pretty standard establishment Republican. We have a leftist party in government, and we have a centrist party that keeps ceding ground to the left under the guise of a conservative/right party. This is why our policies have trended left for decades

So that is to say Kasich is not a conservative, he's just not a leftist.
 
Typical politician. They don't have a stance on anything except what gets them re-elected. If it was popular at the time to eat babies for breakfast, these f*ckers would be firing up the frying pan on national TV.
The bad thing is the populace in general isn't smart enough to see them for what they are.

You don’t until Election Day they are the un-touchables. All you can too is make them fear the next election.
 
I have still yet to figure out what politicians actually think they are going to do.


Are you gonna ban AR-15s and confiscate them all? Good luck with that. I think you would be hard pressed to find enough LEOs willing to do that....certain locales in far left areas, sure, but as a whole, I don't think that will happen. I could see governors and even Sheriffs and Police Chiefs saying they wouldn't enforce a confiscation.

Are you going to ban the future manufacture and sell of AR-15s? What would you accomplish by doing that? There has to be what....6 million ARs in circulation (perhaps more). That is like trying to ban the Chevy 350 V8 or Redwing boots. They are everywhere and aren't exactly "rare".

Are you going to find ways to make it more difficult for people to legally purchase AR-15s? All you will do is create a black market for AR-15s where they are sold face-to-face.

I guess I don't really see the thought process. This is coming from a guy who once owned a .308 DPMS SASS for about a year, but has never owned an "AR-15". I own one stripped lower and have never taken the time to build it up. I don't have a problem at all with AR-15s, just always had some other type of firearm/shooting discipline I was more interested in. I'm only mentioning this to show I don't have a major axe to grind with this issue....just the flawed logic of politicians, the media and some of the public. I don't see where politicians think that anything they do will solve "the problem". You are literally talking about stripping the rights of 330,000,000 people for the actions of less than half a dozen people per year.

I think most people will agree that we want to keep firearms out of the hands of mentally ill people. The question is: how can this goal be accomplished without trampling on the rights of 300,000,000+ people.
 
They have not even made a move to do anything on bump stocks and the NRA has agreed on that. At this point no politician wants to do anything they all need this issue as it stands to energize their base for November.
 
The calls keep coming for us to give another bit of our rights away under the guise of "children's safety".
As witnessed this is from the "R" side of the isle.
Truth is the aisle doesn't really exist.
Last I checked criminals don't abide by the law.
This entire crusade is a farce hiding behind a school shooting that was a result of school, local and FBI law enforcement failing.
One must ask their selves why aren't we enforcing the current laws.
Why aren't the courts and judges as well.

What if they simply reclassify semiautomatics as per the NFA requiring a 10,000$ tax stamp and a trust for ownership? I am going to be sick.
 
The last AR ban was different. They were not as popular and cheap back then. Not a lot of weapons or owners so people did not fuss much. I think People will not go as gentle into the Ban this time. The Greatest Gun salesmen in history may have tipped the balance to us for once.

Its absurd to think making more things illegal would do anything. Its already illegal to kill people, so all the laws do that ban possession in certain areas do is add tack-on charges for people who plan to get killed when they do this sort of thing anyway. The thing is, laws don't actually do anything, its on your honor until you break them, and at that point it is reactive punishment to keep people in line. But at that point the bodies are already cold.

Laws attempting to preempt this kind of thing are antithetical to America and counter to a free society; living in a free society carries inherent risk. As emotionally convenient as I am sure it is for some people to believe it is possible to ever be truly safe it just isn't the case. There is no physical reason the guy behind you at Taco Bell can't all of a sudden get up and beat you to death with his chair-its just very unlikely that he is a psychopath who'd do that. Still, it is within the realm of possibility.

With the understanding that there is no way to actually stop the first victim or two from being killed when a random act of senseless violence is perpetrated, the most favorable course of action is to take steps to mitigate it. I have seen estimates of astronomical figures to put armed guards in schools, these are strawman arguments. You don't need to hire armed guards to man schools, all that needs to be done is to remove restrictions on teachers carrying per the permits they already have-maybe an incentive program if not many do have them. Removing restrictions is the answer, not adding them.

Then it would go down like the SAFE act in NY where all the people who own them just don't comply, many localities don't enforce it, and nobody knarks on their buddies.

That is a good point about mitigating the damage. The truth lies in the fac that no matter what you do, an evil person with evil intent WILL find a way to harm others. I guess the object is to make the planning for them so difficult that it is more likely for law enforcement to catch wind of a plan.

I still think the armed guard thing is a bit of a stretch, if not unnecessary. Sure, there are certain school districts that need such security measures in place, but as a whole, I think that is overkill. A security "presence" may be a viable alternative for most school districts....what I mean is a plan with a revolving officer/patrol schedule that is random and impossible to pattern. If an armed security guard is a deterrent, then perhaps making it difficult to plan something at a school is a fair option.

I still believe that creating a hardened, single entry point vestibule at every school is the best way to go. The vestibule is open when schools are accepting students before the first bell. When the first bell sounds, the locks engage and every person trying to enter the school after that (whether it be a tardy student, the FedEx man, a parent, or a madman) must be buzzed in and had "eyes laid on them" by a faculty member before being given entry into the school. I'd bet the cost of these vestibules could be GREATLY reduced by wealthy benefactors and local construction companies who donate money, time and labor towards the construction.

I think a person who is planning mass murder/suicide isn't going to be discouraged by such things. If he considers guns too difficult to use (not impossible because machine shop equipment is still around) he could build a gasoline bomb or any other of a number of ways of going about it. In fact, that would probably result in even more dead. That goes to reinforce the point that it is the man, not the instrument, at fault.

IDK about the vestibule thing, one way in, one way out. Plus a mass gathering would be an easy target.
 
Prolly wants to be re-elected. So he tell some naive people what they want to hear. Politicians will say and do what’s beneficial to them before they consider anyone. Nothing new.
 
When I lived in Ohio, I asked John Kasich face-to-face if he was going to vote for a piece of anti-gun legislation. I can't remember which one... but it was not the Assault Weapon Ban. That was in effect at the time. But it was something else... and similar.

Right to my face, he said "I will not vote for this. I promise you, I will vote no."

He voted "yes."

He lied to my face.

He is a RINO scumbag and does not hesitate to lie to a voter's face.

Back when Busenhalter-6 was a twenty-something and living in DC... he also went all 'gropey hands-on' with her at some soiree. Long before I knew her. But every time Kasich comes on TV... she has to bring up the fact that Kasich groped her and wouldn't leave her alone... back when he was a Congressman.

Another scumbag politician...

Cheers,

Sirhr
