As an American taxpayer, I paid to fund and arm the Taliban ... twice! That's not my complaint. My complaint is that the Taliban now have full-auto M4 carbines that I am not allowed to own as a US citizen because they violate the 1986 Hughes amendment to FOPA! #RepealAllGunLaws

We have been a progressive hell hole since 1900. When we overturn the income tax, the fed, the gold standard, the NFA, the GCA, FOPA, and all the rulings that allow the government to essentially decide anything it wants is under its preview instead of what is specifically outlined in the Constitution...THEN We will have "WON"

Ronald Reagan: mulford act, FOPA, the brady bill, wrote a letter to Congress in support of the 1994 assault weapons ban. Trump: take the guns first, due process second. You're all full of shit.

FOPA in general was a good thing, it’s the Hughes amendment that’s the problem with that bill. The rest of it prevents bad actor jurisdictions from harassing gun owners and (at least on paper) bans any level of government from making a gun registry.

Given the history of gun control in the US for the past 80 years or so, there is no reason to believe the Republicans are functionally better than the Democrats on gun rights. More and more, gun owners are finally realizing this. However, in the spirit of cooperation here a few suggestion for policies that the Republicans can promote and enact to prove they are serious.
1. Amend the Firearms Owners Protection Act (FOPA) to include overnight stays for rest under the "safe harbor" provisions. Include a Justice Department policy that any DA who prosecutes a traveler who is complying with the safe harbor provisions of FOPA be investigated for civil rights violations.
2. Repeal of the Hughes Amendment.
3. Nationwide legalization of suppressors.
4. Modification of all laws regarding EVPOs so that only close relatives and, under limited circumstance, a person's doctor or licensed therapist can request one. There must be no immunity for false claims and deliberate false claims are at least a Class 1 misdemeanor with an option for a Felony if malice can be proven. Police and prosecutors are specifically excluded from asking for such an order.
5. Repeal of all laws preventing importation of collectible, historical firearms.
6. All states must adopt shall-issue licensing as a minimum with constitutional carry as the preferred mode. Any licensing requirement must not burden citizens or legal aliens with costly training requirements and every license-to-carry (LTC) must be equal to any other issued by the State.
7. Creation of an LTC Compact like that already in use for Driver's Licenses.
8. The District of Columbia must recognize an LTC issued by any State in the Union.
9. All States must make the minimum age for purchasing a firearm less than or equal to the voting age.
10. Anonymization of any background checks that remain using a Blind Identification Database.
11. Training on firearms safety and proficiency in schools. Ideally beginning in grammar school but no later than High School.
When all of the above are firmly in existence then we can talk.

Pre-FOPA the ATF was going apeshit and raiding people constantly, but this wasn't the means they were doing it by.
They'd go after sellers, then raid everyone they sold to, and whoever those people sold to, etc.
It wasn't just owning guns, it was being engaged in any form of commerce even though it was legal, the ATF was using mob tactics.

I've heard that there was -some- truth to that back before FOPA in '86, like apparently high-profile collectors or whoever could just get raided every so often for no real reason. I'm not 100% on how true that was, and also that was 40 years ago

Machine guns aren't banned and FOPA is a good law despite the Hughes Amendment.

Panie Patryku. Jakie fopa dzisiaj w kanale zero. Pan z KO szukał w notesie dziennikarzy aresztowanych przez PiS i nie mógł nic znaleźć, a panu do glowy nie wpadlo że cała Europa wam zarzucała że aresztowaliscie dziennikarza Rubcowa i takie bylo larum.
