I thought this deserved its own thread so it could be shut down and ignored if it's BS, but if it's not, then it really needs its own thread.

Fairness leads to extinction much faster than harsh parameters.
As I understand it, there's already a 10 percent tax. It's actually an incentive to build an AR rather than buy it. You pay 10% on the receiver if you buy a receiver, you pay 10% on everything if you buy it built.
When the gun control establishment says nobody wants to take your guns, what they really mean is "unfortunately it's not possible to take your guns right now, but we're working on it over the long term."

They speak plainly .
It's not the guns in circulation today they're concerned about. Theyre after the guns your kids and grandkids would own.

So....
I have to ask, being that his was from 1993 and I'm sure she really hasn't changed her position on this, does anyone remember hearing her say anything in her campaign even remotely synonymous to this?
She will support anything restricting firearms that she can get through Congress or enact by executive order. If she gets a Dem congress, expect some sort of tax increases as well as laws making firearms manufacturers liable if someone misuses their products as well as limits on mag sizes. I don't know if Hillary cares about guns one way or the other personally, but her base expects lots of action on gun control and she intends to give them what they want.
Totally agree with this, however, I can't recall her mentioning anything like this on the campaign trail this time around.
Clinton is a master of the political long game. Her toned-down rhetoric reflects the realization that gun control is not as popular as the early '90's and that pushing it too hard will compromise her support from moderates. I am certain that she would eliminate civilian ownership of firearms, except perhaps some narrow allowances for hunting like in England, if it were in her power. Since she cannot do that in the short term she will be very strategic in furthering that objective through Supreme Court appointees and as many innocuous "reasonable regulations" that she can accomplish.
Once she is elected, expect a steady stream of restrictions and regulations that are just moderate enough as to not attract too much attention.
