Booker wants to jail Americans who refuse to surrender their right to keep and bear arms?! These are statements of tyranny from a sitting Senator! Nobody, on either side of the aisle, should ever v**e for anyone who does not support the Bill of Rights (the first 10 Amendments). This guy took an oath to support and defend the Constitution but then tries to undermine it at every turn.

The more Democrats find they can get away with (Hillary, Obama, Holder, etc) the more contempt they have for the rule of law, at least U.S. laws and the U.S. Constitution.
Practically everything they've done these last few years has pointed toward changing America into something totally different from what it's been since such great people as Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Samuel Adams, George Washington and our other founders walked the earth.
Obama's promise (thankfully mostly reversed by President Trump) to "fundamentally change" America is still the goal of today's Democrats.
An armed citizenry threatens their plans, because unlike with an unarmed citizenry, they can't simply say, "you don't like what we've turned your country into? Tough s**t, we run it now and there's nothing you can do about it."
Booker is a perfect example of those "progressives" who expect to be among the privileged class, living a double standard like so many other Dems -- Nancy Pelosi with her CCW permit, for example, who like the rest of that l*****t garbage wants to disarm "the unwashed masses" while she and other leftie elitists can do as they please, carry weapons or surround themselves with well armed protective details.
That's probably why so many Democrat politicians are drinking so deeply these days from the trough of corruption; they are so sure their agendas will come to fruition that they want to be financially secure like what they imagine will be the rest of the ruling class.
They betray their lack of ability to think past their little socialist fantasy, however, because "fundamentally changing" America to what they're expecting to change it to will also change our economy into a low performing mess as those who would be capitalists realize there are no longer any rewards for their hard work and vision, and as massive unemployment sets in and crime escalates to third world country levels, these stupid Democrats will find themselves the monarchy over a weakened pile of third rate cow dung, no longer a world leader and ripe for invasion and resource rape by China or Russia, or maybe something in a Sharia scenario.
That's why, like the saying goes, "When Uncle Sam comes to take my gun, he's gonna have to pry it from my dead, cold hands."
