During an October 16, 2019, CNN interview, Democrat presidential hopeful Robert “Beto” O’Rourke suggested that mass shooters will hand over their AR-15s under his forced buyback plan.
O’Rourke went through his normal claims that he believes Americans will comply with the buybacks by handing over their AR-15s and similar commonly owned semiautomatic rifles.
Host Carol Costello asked O’Rourke, “You expect mass shooters to follow the law?”
O’Rourke responded, “Our fellow Americans will follow the law, yes.”
Costello countered, “Mass shooters … don’t follow the law — by definition.” She added, “It doesn’t make sense that people are going to hand over their ‘assault weapons’ if they’re mass shooters. If they want to do harm to people, they’re not going to follow the law.”
CNN roasted Beto and his confiscation scheme – SHOCKING, we know. They kept reminding Beto that criminals don't follow laws and won't turn in their guns. Beto refused to answer how he plans on carrying out his scheme. This came hours after Beto promised to go door-to-door. pic.twitter.com/fCa08Q4df4

O’Rourke responded to Costello’s line of questioning by suggesting that anticipated compliance with a legislative proposal ought not be the litmus test for whether the proposal is adopted.
The National Shooting Sports Foundation calculates there are more than 16 million privately owned AR-15s in the United States.

” legislative proposal ought not be the litmus test for whether the proposal is adopted.”
Just keep committing treason you idiot! You can’t legislate away that 2nd Article without the consequences of the precise purpose of the right to keep and bear those arms which is to deal with tyranny coming down from you TRAITORS! You are absolutely NO different that some Joe stranger on the street that thinks he’ll legislate against my life in any manner as you clowns are nothing but a bunch of illegal corporate enforcers, enforcing your mammon siphoning ponzy scheme.
We will be absolutely righteously justified in meeting out justice.
Again, you are a blazing dufus idiot!
