Rep. Eric Swalwell (D., Calif.) suggested the United States government would use nuclear weapons in a theoretical war against gun rights supporters who refuse to give up assault weapons.
The Democratic congressman’s comments were prompted by a Twitter user’s response to an article about Swalwell’s call to force gun owners to relinquish assault weapons. The piece recounts how Swalwell “has proposed outlawing ‘military-style semiautomatic assault weapons’ and forcing existing owners to sell their weapons or face prosecution.”
Make no mistake, Democrats want to eradicate the Second Amendment, ban and seize all guns, and have all power rest with the state.
These people are dangerously obsessed with power. https://t.co/f1AS6Me0ko

“So basically @RepSwalwell wants a war. Because that’s what you would get. You’re outta your fucking mind if you think I’ll give up my rights and give the [government] all the power,” Twitter user Joe Biggs said.
“And it would be a short war my friend. The government has nukes. Too many of them. But they’re legit. I’m sure if we talked we could find common ground to protect our families and communities,” Swalwell tweeted in reply.

“So our government would nuke its own country in order to take guns? Wow,” Biggs responded.
“Don’t be so dramatic. You claiming you need a gun to protect yourself against the government is ludicrous. But you seem like a reasonable person. If an assault weapons ban happens, I’m sure you’ll follow law,” Swalwell tweeted back.

A poll obtained by the Washington Free Beacon found that repealing the Second Amendment is the second most important issue for Democrats in this country, behind only single payer health care. Twenty-four percent of Democrats said it was their most important issue.
Swalwell later attempted to clarify his comments by saying he was being sarcastic.
Swalwell 2020 campaign slogan: “Nuke ’em!”
He wasn’t being sarcastic. Check out other comments he’s made. He’s such a dipshit he doesn’t realize him and his fellow loonie lefties would bite the bullet if nukes were employed as well. A deranged, scary person who is one of the faces of the demokrat party. And to think they managed to get control of the House. If there was ever any doubt as to why the 2nd Amendment was written or if it is still as pertinent today as it was back then, look no further than this lunatic’s comment.
Does this flaming retarded moron have a clue what he wrote? Is the aforementioned flaming retarded moron going to nuke LA or the Silicon Valley, or NYC, or Austin Texas?
Is he talking out his a$$?
We have a Republican president as well as a Republican Senate.
A “gun ban” on scary-looking guns cannot happen unless we have an all-3 Dem gov’t.
And our military would consider him a domestic threat before they would their own families.
So, let’s see… “We DON’T want your guns!!! But, give them to us or we’ll nuke you. And cut the drama.” Is there some kind of competition to out-stupid Orcasio-Cortez?
@Deplorable Me: The ninth circuit court has blocked the pardons of Peas and Carrots, Judge Dumbsh!t said in a statement they will feed the caravan. Shortly after they were served with subpoenas from Bobby Mueller outlining giblets as a Russian gravy recipe.
All owners of guns kindly gather together so we can be nuked in an efficient manner.
@kitt: Schumer said if Trump pardons a turkey, it will create a Constitutional crisis.
Seriously, I have been wondering how the left will turn the mere pardoning of a turkey into something negative.
@Deplorable Me: Shhh …the turkey was white
Last week was the opening of the Wisconsin white-tail deer season. Over 550,000 hunters went to the woods which is more hunters than there are US Army members. Now if we include the 560,000 in MI, the 946,00 hunters from PA, 475,00 in MN, and this does not include TX, MO, MS, AL , NY, OH, IA, NE, OK, GA, FL and the Carolinas. I believe that if the US tries to take the guns from people who have them legally, they may find themselves with a problem. These silly liberals should also remember that the military members and veterans take an oath to defend the Constitution, not government bureaucrats. Real veterans also take their oath seriously for life. (Rich Wheeler excepted!)
@Randy: Liberal morons in Congress just LOVE to spout pompous, idiotic garbage which their ignorant moron constituents eat up like pumpkin pie with whipped cream. Then, when it never happens, they go scream at the sky like true Americans.
@Randy: It was close to 600,000 in the Northwoods, 1 death man shot dead while sitting in his ground blind, 3 idiots shot themselves injuries were non fatal. One found dead in his tree stand most likely a heart attack. 118,670 deer were taken opening weekend statewide, est population 1,152,000, in 2013 car deer crashes caused 8 deaths and 118,285 auto accidents, liberals want deer crossing signs moved
you know like gun free zones and stuff.
@Randy:
Somehow I don’t think his fellow former Marines would appreciate these statements he made:
Especially knowing this:
http://pr.phillypolice.com/2018/11/wanted-suspects-for-robbery-in-the-6th-district-video-21/
Him and Antifa both accuse anyone not holding their views as being “white supremacists” and “neo-NAZI’s” in order to justify their holier than thou left wing views and the subsequent violence used to impose those views on others. Based on his own comments, he would have joined his Antifa comrades in this attack.
@another vet: Simply put, liberals happily accept political violence against anyone with different thoughts than theirs… and ANY intelligent person does not share their racist, fascist liberal ideology.
@Deplorable Me: I can only imagine what’s going on in the minds of those Marines in that unit knowing how comaraderie in military units works. Those Marines probably would like nothing better than to hunt down those Red pieces of garbage and lay a whole lot of whoop ass on them which is exactly what needs to happen. Time the demokrats learn that their enforcers’ thuggery will not be tolerated, something certain demokrat politicians need to learn as well.
@another vet: Glad you found that older quote, RW called me a liar.
The last thing the progressives want is for the citizens or nationalists to unite, demand equal justice. They have even changed their meaning of nationalist to try to divide. Nationalist doesnt describe color, religion, sexual preference, or any other division that the progressives convince they are victims and need extra special rights.
Liberty and justice for all, all born equal with equal rights and protections under the constitution. This Rep. Swalwell needs to sanctioned even recalled for failing to have the basic understanding of his oath of office.
“I, AB, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”
@kitt: Well, as they do so often, when liberals take the oath they simply lie.
@kitt:
He did the same with me not only on this subject but others as well like denying he accused the now acquitted cop in Minnesota of executing the black motorist. When confronted with the actual quote, he pretended like he didn’t get caught. Now you know who the real liar was. Keep backup evidence if you continue to engage in conversation.
He understands but like any good leftist he simply doesn’t care. He can make all the excuses he wants but what he advocated is jail or death for those who don’t comply with his demands. He downplayed the nuke comment but just remember Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, and Mao killed untold millions without nukes.
@another vet: Well, I have always believed that Rich Wheeler was a liar and a traitor to his oath. The Marines who I showed his post to several months ago called him several names I can not post here. He did escape with the “I was there medal” of which he is so proud. That is considered an achievement medal for officers. We called them REMFs and oxygen thieves.
Everyone have a wonderful thanks giving and remember to show your pet affection even if it is a Democrat
