Cruz Has a Warning For the GOP About Background Check Legislation

Sen. Ted Cruz warned Republicans not to pursue expanded background checks Thursday at an event sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor, saying that it could jeopardize their chances in 2020.

“If Republicans abandon the Second Amendment and demoralize millions of Americans who care deeply about Second Amendment rights, that could go a long way to electing a President Elizabeth Warren,” replied Cruz when asked about whether he thought President Trump would back a modified version of the 2013 background check proposal from Sens. Joe Manchin and Pat Toomey.

Cruz cautioned that Democratic turnout in 2020 will be “record-shattering” and Republicans shouldn’t do anything that would keep GOP voters home. ...........

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my county to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

It depends on whether they can be snapped out of their "do something" mentality or not.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Here lies in honored glory an American soldier, known but to God

THE ESTABLISHMENT IS THE PROBLEM...NOT THE SOLUTION

Republicans Don't Need A Back Bench...They Need a BACKBONE!

Even though I believe that any law against owning any weapon is unconstitutional, I am proud to be living in Virginia.

Virginia Leads Nation in Machine Gun Ownership :patriot:

Quote
The Old Dominion can list another category in which it leads the United States: machine guns.

Virginia is home to more than 30,000 legally registered, fully automatic machine guns, the most of any state in the country. In fact, there is one legal machine gun for every 267 Virginians.

Virginia’s machine-gun collection isn’t that much larger than Florida’s or California’s, but those states—which are second and third in total number of machine guns—have far larger populations.

The statistics were compiled by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and reported by The Roanoke Times.
