While 1 is too many. It is worth discussing the actual prevalence. I didn't check your numbers but assume they are close to accurate. Thanks for posting.
I was about to post the same thing. All of us obviously have too much time on our hands lol. Our grandfathers didn't have time to sit around and argue about such nonsense.
I don't understand this thinking. If we 2A supporters don't "compromise a little" first, then the gun grabbers will ban more of the guns. Do you honestly believe that if they were able to get an AR ban, they would not also try to ban handguns next, and on and on? How does being the first to...
I'm just bringing up another side of the mental health discussion that nobody wants to discuss. I'm all for keeping weapons out of the hands of dangerous people. Dangerous people are dangerous people. If we think someone is dangerous enough to shoot up a school I don't think they should be...
I appreciate your response and honesty. But the only right you feel comfortable restricting, of the ones being discussed is the only one that is specifically protected by the constitution.
Nobody is calling for antiquated "torture chambers". It was a simple question. if someone deemed so dangerous that they should not be around firearms, should they have access to an F250 or an ax or numerous any other item that could be used as a weapon?
I have no nostalgia for mental institutions. Just for common sense. If someone is a danger to society, should they be freely walking around in society? People are talking red flag laws for guns. Do you want a person who is deemed a danger to society with a gun to have access to a car, to a...
When grandpa was alive everyone also knew that women didn't have balls, kids didn't shit in litter boxes or eat laundry detergent. The mentally ill were actually put in mental institutions. Today those that do not know the difference between a man and a woman are trying to take away gun rights...
I'm in agreement with you. Some of us are totally against any further change to 2A. Because it most certainly won't be positive towards 2A. Would folks be in favor of weakening 1A if possibly (but not probably) saves some lives?
Not a read herring unless you take it out of context. His point was every weapon is made to assault. You can look it up. It is a slippery slope on what gets labeled that and more so who gets to do the labeling.
Tighter gun control = tighter citizen control. Or at least the same politicians are pushing for both. I know it is only a correlation but worth pondering.
None of those bolded were thought of as highly to receive their own Amendment. I'm thankful that the constructors were such forward thinkers. The ignorant or the evil may defeat 2A one of these days, but it won't be easy. Likely will be small bites at a time allowed by those that don't...
American citizens understood they had a an individual right to bear arms from 1791 until 1990. You know how they knew? They could go to the store and buy them. They could order them from a magazine. They could buy them from their friend. It wasn't until the federal government grew and...
Still trying to figure out what everyone knew for 180 years. You make it out like before Heller, US citizens did not have the right to bear arms. Just wasn't the case. Heller may have clarified what was already known.
That is like the appointee that couldn't define a woman a few weeks back...
