So, if I were to walk to the store, which I've been known to do...I have to past by a school, I'll be frisked. Cool, something to look forward to.
So, if I'm carrying, which I'm legally entitled to do...I wonder what sort of kerfluffle will ensue?
SWAT teams? FBI HRT? ATF? Assuming I survive the encounter, I'll be fabulously wealthy in the aftermath.

300 million guns in America. I think that anyone who actually tries to confiscate them will be incredibly stupid.
But how would they confiscate the ILLEGALLY purchased guns?
To be honest, anyone who seriously entertains the idea of a gun confiscation in this country is deluding themselves. It's just fearmongering to assume that such a thing would occur. Even the democrats, when pushing gun control, never push to outright ban all guns. It's always restrictions on how to buy them.

Well that's good to know. That no one will take away anyone's guns. So how do these new actions prevent gun related crime? Or will they just confiscate the illegally owned guns.

Even when the government gets very close to banning the gun (like machine guns), they are still technically legal, and any owners of them are grandfathered into the law.
Gun confiscations are pretty much right wing doomporn. I mean believe it or not, left leaning independents and Democrats own guns too.
