Charlottesville Mayor: Car Attack Shows Need to Limit Concealed Carry
Charlottesville Mayor Mike Signer (D) addressed the August 12 car attack that killed Heather Heyer, suggesting it highlights the need to limit concealed carry.
He said he supports the Second Amendment, and is even “friends with many gun owners,” but he thinks more restrictions are necessary following the rally in which a car attack took an innocent life.

According to the Atlantic, Signer said, “While I am…a strong supporter of the Second Amendment, that right, like all Constitutional rights, comes with limits.” He then said, “Just as machine guns cannot be owned by civilians in this country…it should not be acceptable to open-carry or concealed-carry firearms at an event of the sort we saw last weekend.”

So open carrying and a car attack are connected how. They will use anything to limit our rights on guns. This is why you'll never convince me they don't want to take them away.

You notice they never say we need further restrictions on cars ....

He failed to separate protesters and wants to shift the blame for what happened. It was also his activism that brought this on. He went after a man who died 147 years ago and it blew up in his face.

And did anyone notice that no one was shot by the open and concealed carriers at this event?

 

[ProgSpear]

We need common sense restrictions on wannabe despots. Perhaps writing a provision into our laws permitting citizens to defend themselves from those with despotic ambitions would do the trick.

 

[Deplorable Me]

Considering the antifa showed up with weapons with intent to confronting people, I'd say the mayor is a social genius. It takes two sides to fight. I see collusion and conspiracy.

My father Eddard Stark told me that anything a man says before the word "but" is total horse shit.

I can't believe he would actually try to push his restrictions on guns over a car wielding maniac.

 

[Kwalsh]

That makes no sense?? How does that even happen?

You got attacked by a car so no guns for anyone!!!

Umm but they can.. its just a bullshit convoluted process and limited to MG's manufactured before May 19th of 1986

Reminds me of Hillary's brother, Tony Rodham. He was caught having sex with a woman by her fiance. After he received a beating and was thrown out of his own house, he said to the press he was fortunate his assailant didn't have a gun or he would be dead.

Again I must say...stupid is as stupid does!

Everything that comes out of this dip shit's mouth after this means absolutely NOTHING to me.

The radical USA sub-cultures are broken, not gun rights. The far right and far left are equally fucking evil; and both want your guns. The radical left wants them so you cannot stop a shift to marxism / communism like Friedrich Engels architected. The radical right wants them so you cannot stop the shift to fascism like Hitler and Mussolini architected. Doesn't anyone know that Hitler and Mussolini made it illegal to own guns if you were a private citizen and weren't in their government? Why do you think the Jews and Gypsies gave up with a whimper? When Stalin initiated the Pogroms and killed most of the Jews in Russia - guess what. Jews weren't allowed to own firearms and could not fight back.

One thing though - everyone said Ovomit would come steal your guns. Under Dubya, it took me 6 months to get my tax stamp back from BATFE so I could pick up my full auto weapon purchase. Under Ovomit it went from 6 months to 3 weeks, more or less. Under Ovomit; my weapons collection grew from 30 or so weapons to over 100; and my ammo collection went from 10,000 rounds to well over 100,000 rounds. Ovomit didn't want my weapons. Under Cuomo, who is arguably the king of gun grabbers, I got my unrestricted concealed carry in NY. In fact, my county doesn't even fuck with restricted anymore. You apply for a permit and immediately you get unrestricted even when you select the box for restricted. Cuomo has not tried to alter those rules county by county.

Although it would have been nice for someone to shoot DEAD the one driving the car. That's what needed to be done!

If fascism is a bad thing; then why is anti-fascicm a bad thing? By definition, I'm anti-fascist since I find it offensive that neo-Nazis are even allowed in this country. The problem isn't being anti-fasicm. The problem is that a fringe of Americans that are anti-fascism (against Hitler and Mussolini) are actually pro-communism (Marx and Engels). Everything I have read leads me to believe being centrist is the only sane choice. Far left and far right will grab your guns and then grab your rights. Or in the case of the far right, they will grab your actual life when they institute Hitler's "final solution".

Centrism - Wikipedia

In politics, centrism or the centre is a political outlook or specific position that involves acceptance or support of a balance of a degree of social equality and a degree of social hierarchy; while opposing political changes which would result in a significant shift of society either strongly to the left or the right.

And for the readers that are wondering what social equality means in the above link; social equality is the school of thought that prioritizes equality for all people. Social equality means there is a lower class, a middle class, and an upper class; with each class having an upper, middle, and lower stratum within that class.

You can thank Ronald Reagan for that. GOP's wonderful savior. He's the one that did the machine gun grab. Reagan could easily have refused to sign FOPA and told them that he agreed with it limiting the government abuses that were detailed in the 1982 senate committee report; but that locking down the machine gun registry impeded the rights of Americans to own machine guns at a reasonable cost. He could have sent that back to Congress to be fixed.

And let's call a spade a spade. that machine gun registry was just a scam to get around double jeopardy anyway. Uncle Sam didn't like the US Constitution impeding them from charging you with the same crime more than once if you were found innocent the first time. Pissed them off that folks like Al Capone were being found innocent of anything. So they made that fucked up registry, and then if they didn't like the results of a mafiosa criminal trial they could hit them with federal tax evasion for owning a Thompson or Browning without your $200 tax stamp and do a tax evasion trial without a jury and give you life in prison anyway.

Why? Was the murderer concealing a car?
