If you're planning tyranny, at least don't put it in writing. That seems to be the guiding principle behind the Harris-Walz administration's 2024 Democratic Party Platform. In terms of 'gun control', their once radical ideas are now missing or appear watered down.

The campaign finally released the platform Monday night, including its 'gun control' plans called "Protecting Communities & Tackling the Scourge of Gun Violence."

According to the platform, the Democrats want:

  • Universal background checks.
  • "Assault weapon" and standard-capacity magazine bans
  • Mandatory safe-storage laws
  • Repeal of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act
  • Increased red-flag laws
  • Increased funding for the ATF
  • Increased funding for the FBI, to conduct more background checks
  • Increased funding for the CDC, "because the gun violence epidemic is a public health crisis."

Most of these ideas are unconstitutional, and all have been floated before. They're bad enough, but the real issue is what was not included in the platform, because if Harris and Walz told voters their true intent, they'd never get elected. .....
