Nothing wrong with being against "illegal guns" (I am), but I suspect the broad agenda is much wider.

With a vote from politicians or the stroke of a pen a legal weapon becomes illegal and the owner a criminal.

Given that it is Bloomberg's organization, they think that any gun in the hands of ordinary people are (or should be in their opinion) illegal.

I'm having more and more faith that Texas and other 2A friendly states are putting up fierce resistance to the elitist Northeastern political directives.

I would, but they still have some very left wing politicians at the state level introducing legislation to ban conservatives from moving into the state.

Oklahoma and Wyoming didn't have any. Oklahoma also had a total of 0 counties that broke for Obama. We seriously need to have a conversation with Oklahomans and find out what progressive repellant they are using, we need a couple of batches of it!

There's no "suspicion" about it at all. Their goal is confiscation of all firearms. That's not what they say.....but when their words are identical to those who DO want to confiscate all firearms, well if it walks like a duck, and talks like a duck.....

....and if you still are not convinced, MAIG was founded by and is largely funded by New York Mayor Bloomberg, one of the worst enemies of the 2nd Amendment still standing. May his reign of terror end soon.

TAM, I have to call you on that one...Bloomberg himself has publicly stated that he is the 2nd Amendment's greatest defender. :lol::
