A Democratic Congressman suggested nuking America if gun owners resist gun seizures, following comments he made in an op-ed urging an assault weapons ban.
In the op-ed, Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) argued that the government should force gun owners to sell their weapons to the government, and punish those who resist.
In his radical proposal, he says America “should ban possession of military-style semiautomatic assault weapons, we should buy back such weapons from all who choose to abide by the law, and we should criminally prosecute any who choose to defy it by keeping their weapons.”
“And it would be a short war, my friend. The government has nukes. Too many of them. But they’re legit,” he said.
