Hi Linda,
Israel was occupied by Rome and subject to the laws of Rome. Those that took up arms against Rome would be swiftly killed by the Roman authorities. The only people that had arms was the people the Roman Empire allowed to have arms. That is not the case in America that has a government of the people and by the people that in our Constitution says the right to bear arms shall not be infringed.
Paul’s commission was to give Gentiles the gospel of Christ. Not to lead a rebellion again Rome.

The progressive agenda is always about banning all firearms. They will never be appeased by giving them a inch. They know they cannot have the all powerful tyrannical government they want as long as the population is allowed to have firearms.
Many want to pretend that the 2nd Amendment was about guns for hunting but the no infringement of firearms clause was put in the Bill of Rights to prevent the take over of America by enemies foreign or DOMESTIC. The 2nd amendment was put there to prevent the tyranny such as what happened in Germany, Russia, China, Cambodia, Cuba and now Venezuela and the domestics sell outs to global communism that are now trying to establish leftist tyranny in America.
Conservatives better wake up because if they give up their firearms millions of them will later be rounded up and marched to places that they do not want to go.

All bumpstock bans that have been put out so far base it on rate which means in theory if they want to push it, they could declare most firearms and firearm accessories as machineguns if they wanted.
2. We’ve been able to stave off gun control at the federal level for 20 years because if you support gun control you will lose your seat. If we don’t oppose Trump over this we do look weak. If we do and remove him then the dems will end up with the whitehouse and both houses next go around, and then there will be no holding them back. In short, politically it’s a lose, lose situation.
3. It encourages a disdain for the the law and federal authority. Gunowners are getting tired of being held responsible for the actions of the lawless and government failures. Everyone I’ve talked to plans to ignore it. This is going to become more of a problem considering we’re in the early stages of the 3d printing revolution.
4. It’s totally unconstitional along with every other gun ban in the country. Not only that, but you just had a president unilaterally declare something illegal.
5. It’s not that Barak Obama and the BATFE declared them legal. They will try to ban everything that comes along. They didn’t with bumpstocks because there is literally no way under the law as written to ban them. They tried and they couldn’t.
