A bit off topic:

"In a white paper dated January 4 and obtained by NRA-ILA, the deputy director of the National Institute for Justice--DOJ's research and evaluation agency--said that the proposals before Congress are unlikely to have an effect unless they are made even more draconian. For instance, the document makes clear that the effectiveness of "universal" background checks "depends on … requiring gun registration." On the topic of magazines that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition, NIJ writes, "In order to have an impact, large capacity magazine regulation needs to sharply curtail availability to include restrictions on importation, manufacture, sale, and possession." As for popular semi-automatic firearms, the NIJ notes, "Since assault weapons are not a major contributor to U.S. gun homicide and the existing stock of guns is large, an assault weapons ban is unlikely to have an impact on gun violence. If coupled with a gun buyback and no exemptions then it could be effective.""

No, not off at all. But they are not wanting to take any guns. That is why they call it a"manditory" buy back

Slight thread deviation. I've read about so called "buy back" programs. From what I've read an AR is being bought back for a mere $250 (recent LA buy back). My cheapest AR was $600, after modding it breaks the $1000 range. Why on earth would anyone accept pennies on the dollar on such an item.

For the record, none of my guns have ever caused any violence. The AK's and Saiga's didn't even try to destroy the AR's.

It would be a mandatory buy back

I fail to see the difference between that and confiscation.

Confiscation they just steal the gun.

Mandatory buy back, they tax you first to pay for the program, once they all take their cut, they then take your gun at a huge discount.

Mandatory is better, the government gets more money from you that way. I'm sure they'll then add a processing tax, and maybe a fine also after the fact.

I'm pretty sure on the way out of the confiscation camp, they make you lie naked on the mudd and let a vegetarian stand on your face too. It's good for votes.
