“Emma Gonzalez has been one of the most recognizable faces of the Parkland crowd. Her shaved head and militant attitude brand her as a typical leftist radical. The media’s love affair with her and her friends from school only amplified her leftist views on guns.
However, the Parkland crowd has been quick to say that no one was coming for our guns. Oh, they want gun control, but they claim they only want what they describe as “sensible” reforms to our country’s gun laws. Again, they’re not coming for our guns.
Emma didn’t get that memo, apparently.
Reacting to the shooting at a Waffle House in Tennessee in which several people were shot, far-left activist Emma González immediately attacked the NRA and Smith & Wesson Corp.
After several tweets, González called for the confiscation of all semi-automatic firearms, writing: “Removing the assault and semi-automatic weapons from our Civilian society, instituting thorough background checks and mandatory waiting periods (and raising the buying age and banning the production of high-capacity magazines) are the ways to stop shootings in America.”
The only way to remove semi-automatic weapons from our civilian society is through gun confiscation. The AR-15 is owned by roughly 5 million people in this country. That doesn’t count those who own AK-47s, AK-74s, FALs, and other so-called assault rifles, or people with Glocks, 1911s, Ruger 10/22s, Remington 750s, Browning BARs, and so on. By the time you “remove” all of those, you’re probably looking at tens of millions of gun owners you will have to take weapons from.
Good luck with that one.
Of course, it’s easy for Gonzalez to makes calls like this. Her butt isn’t in the hot seat. She’s not the one who will have to deal with the ramifications of something like this. She doesn’t even have to try and figure out how to make it work. All she has to do is run her mouth and spout off platitudes.”
