September 17 is Constitution Day and Peter Francis O’Rourke plans on celebrating it by gutting the document’s Second Amendment, infringing on the right to bear arms that the Constitution says shall not be infringed. Of course, O’Rourke also shares the Democrat belief that the Constitution’s “penumbras and emanations” confers a right to privacy allowing unborn children to be aborted until the moment of birth.
There he was on Sunday’s “Meet the Press,” his dental work complete and ear hair properly trimmed, to claim his plan to confiscate from law-abiding citizens by force and under penalty of law their AR-15s was in fact constitutional under the Constitution’s Commerce clause.

It isn't totally clear what misinformed person said the line "The AR-15 is among the guns that must be registered. " in this piece, but it is nonsense. There are NO guns other than machine guns which "must be registered" in most states. Some sad states have restrictive state gun laws, but most do not, and very few have any special limits on ARs.
In any case, the author is exactly correct, George Washington and the founding fathers would LOVE the AR rifles, perfect for fending off tyrannical governments.

FTA "Critics of the Second Amendment say that they are not going after guns used for legitimate activities such as hunting. But when the Founders wrote the Second Amendment, it was because the British were coming, not because it was the start of deer season."
Now replace the word British above with the word Democrats and that will explain why AR-15s are needed! The Democrats want the tyranny and anarchy that comes with open borders, sanctuary cities and now States, illegal aliens, socialism, the new green deal, single payer healthcare, infanticide etc! Beto is a complete fool and idiot!

Who is Peter Francis O’Rourke? It might help to get the subject’s name right.
Even my far left wing SIL is now saying that Butto has to go. I’m sure she is saying that for the good of her party, not her country or her conservative husband and his family, or fellow citizens.

Beto takes radical stances because it draws publicity and that's the only way he can keep his name out there, whatever it is. The Village Idiot does not know that he is the Village Idiot just like Hillary Clinton does not know that she is fat, greedy and stupid. She will never be anything more than Bubba's wife and Beto will never be POTUS.
The campaign to remove AR-15s from the hands of thousands of patriots is a fool's errand and the democrats know it, even the smart, articulate kenyan figured out early on that it can not be accomplished even though he attempted it by deceit. Gun ownership is our insurance policy against tyranical government and we will never allow it to lapse. When we are attacked it will not be by deer.

The AR-15 is not a "weapon of war." It LOOKS like a "weapon of war," but it's really no different in function than all the other semi-automatic rifles with shiny walnut stocks standing in gun cases all across the country.
But if the AR-15 is successfully banned, the semi-automatic rifles with walnut stocks will fit the definition of banned weapons and will fall under the same ban.

If Beto wants to grab legal guns purchased by citizens who obey the laws and do no harm to others with them then I hope Beto or any other politician who supports 'gun confiscation' can run faster than 3,000 feet per second. They are going to have to be faster than a speeding bullet much like Super Man.

Peter Francis "Beto" O’Rourke loudly proclaiming his plan to confiscate from law-abiding citizens by force and under penalty of law their AR-15s, has his fellow candidates in an uproar. Not because it shows his utter contempt for the Constitution and law abiding citizens, but because it makes public what most, if not all of them, think but want to keep hidden from the voters.
In 1775, the British sent "Red Coats" to Lexington and Concord to confiscate the weapons so the colonists would not be able to fight tyranny. Now the Progressives/Democrats want to do the same thing.

Senior Beto indicated that Americans will comply with a law that requires people that turn in AR15's. Why not just have a law that prohibits shooting innocent people? Easy Peesy

Beto the Buffoon may just have flipped the House. Thanks, Beto! Keep talking.
