A nice collection of quotes to refer to when someone tells you that "Nobody wants to take all your guns"

“Confiscation could be an option. Mandatory sale to the state could be an option. Permitting could be an option — keep your gun but permit it.” Andrew Cuomo

“I do not believe in people owning guns. Guns should be owned only by [the] police and military. I am going to do everything I can to disarm this state.” Michael Dukakis

“If someone is so fearful that they are going to start using their weapons to protect their rights, it makes me very nervous that these people have weapons at all.” U.S. Rep. Henry Waxman

“In fact, the assault weapons ban will have no significant effect either on the crime rate or on personal security. Nonetheless, it is a good idea … Passing a law like the assault weapons ban is a symbolic – purely symbolic – move in that direction. Its only real justification is not to reduce crime but to desensitize the public to the regulation of weapons in preparation for their ultimate confiscation.” Charles Krauthammer, columnist, 4/5/96 Washington Post

My daughter (12 by the way) said it best while listening to the news a few days ago. Her mom made a comment while watching a story about David Hogg and that fiasco, something to the effect of "They are taking big steps toward taking all the guns away" Daughter replied with "They're afraid to try to take them away, they want you to give them away. That's why they try so hard to make us afraid of guns"
