Yep. A criminal action resulting in death to people in Tucson really affects me here to the point of giving up my rights.

Almost got me again.

The comic strip is right - it's fruitless to try and have a rational argument over any reasonable gun laws because one side doesn't believe such a thing exists.

and that side is usually the one that wants everyone to give up their guns.

I thought we had "reasonable gun laws", only adults can buy em and if you break the law with em, you go to jail for a longer time.

What.... you need more?

There's no reasonable gun laws in Arizona now? Isn't Tombstone in Gifford's congressional district?

I think you mean you want some reasonable gun restrictions which would pass consitutional muster.

One thing you guys are good at is making straw man arguments.

List some current gun laws that you find reasonable.

Yes.

Step 1 - accuse opponent of being a straw man.

List some current gun laws that you find reasonable.

By very definition of "shall not be infringed" there are no reasonable gun laws.

How big a gun can be restricted by government then?

I think the shooter violated some of these but I'm no gun law expert. The second one is interesting. Giffords had to tell people not to bring guns to her event?

Carrying:

•No person shall carry a firearm "concealed on his person." This does not apply to a person in his dwelling, business premises or on real property owned or leased by that person. A handgun carried in a belt holster which is wholly or partially visible or carried in luggage is not considered carrying concealed.

•No person shall, unless specifically authorized by law, enter a public establishment or attend a public event carrying a firearm after a reasonable request by the operator of the establishment or the sponsor of the event to remove his firearm and place it in the custody of the operator or sponsor. This does not apply to shooting ranges or shooting events, hunting areas or similar locations or activities.

Miscellaneous

•It is unlawful to recklessly handle, display, or discharge a firearm with the intent to disturb the peace and quiet of a neighborhood, family or person.

If only we knew what your case was.

Come on, I am waiting to hear whether you really believe what you just stated! You think government should not be allowed to restrict private ownership of heavy artillery? Those are 'guns' after all. What about smaller weapons like 50 caliber machine guns? Do you draw any line?
