Not so far back in US history, it was ok to open carry.  It was also ok to draw your weapon and kill a person for calling you a cheat and a liar.  Or any other form of denigrating you or your family.  See how far we’ve come?

That's why I'm saying laws are dynamic and will continue to change. Even if it's not in the favor of people who like to keep things the way they are.

 

Who knows how the world looks in 20/30 years? Maybe no one is allowed to own a gun at all, that's also possibility.

Oh! Tiffany Trump liked a tweet of a poster sayin "Next massacre will be the GOP in the mid term elections"

Had guns in the house for just over 100 years.  No one ever got shot.  

 

My results suggest you need to find a better source for info.  Yours is complete bull puckey.

So because it hasn't happened to you, statistics saying it could happen is bull? Got it...

Years and years ago the NRA believed everyone who bought any type of gun had to register them with the Federal government. See how far we've regressed?

Heck they were even the proponents of gun control.

Everyone who buys a new or used gun from a dealer is required to pass a BG check (NATIONWIDE, Val!!!).  Serial number, name, address, phone, etc.    The same as buying a car at a stealership.

No, I took precautions for it to not happen to me aka got vaccinated.

I got vaccinated against the fear of guns when I was a kid, thankfully.   Can live in harmony without shooting anyone, myself included.

So you think the reason why people want to restrict who gets to own a gun is because people fear guns? Interesting.

Because the conversation usually goes like this:

You: We don’t want to ban all guns, we just want to ban assault weapons.

Me: What do you mean by “assault weapons?” There is no standard definition of “assault guns / assault weapons.”

You: You know, military grade weapons—no one needs those.

Me: “Military grade” weapons have a selector for fully automatic fire. Fully automatic weapons have been illegal since 1934. Civilians can’t purchase “military grade” weapons.

You: Well, you know, we should ban guns like AR-15s then.

Me: You want to ban just AR-15s or all guns like AR-15s?

You: All guns like AR-15s.

Me: An AR-15 is pretty representative of guns like it, so let’s look specifically at it. An AR-15 is a semi-automatic modern sporting rifle that can chamber .22, .223 (5.56 x 45mm), 6.8 SPC, .308, .450 Bushmaster and about a dozen others. Upper receivers for pistol calibers such as 9 mm, .40, and .45 are available. There are even .410 shotgun versions. So how would you write a “ban on guns like AR-15s” into law?

You: Um, let’s just ban all semi-automatic weapons.

Me: So you want to ban semi-automatic rifles or semi-automatic weapons?

You: All semi-automatic weapons

Me: So that would leave only bolt-action rifles and revolvers as legal guns?

You: Yeah! That’s it!

Me: That would ban about 80% of the guns currently in the US. I thought you said you didn’t want to ban all guns?

You: But the children!

Me: You’re a moron.

You: That’s mean and hateful! You can’t say that!

Me: Yes, it’s mean, but it’s protected under free speech.

You: We need to ban hate speech!

Me: You want to start placing restrictions on free speech now?

You: Not all speech, just hate speech.

That’s a senseless question.  Who wants to restrict who gets guns?  Dems? Liberals? ‘Pubs?  Conservatives?  Men?  Wimminz? 

 

Labels are meaningless.  Gun ownership is ALREADY restricted.  How much more restriction is the main question.  Criminals are restricted from owning guns, as are mentally ill people, dishonorably discharged from the military... wait.  Let me help you by simply posting an ATF form 23 link, where you can read all of the questions you must answer to own an NFA item.  Many of the same questions are asked of every person who purchases a gun from a FFL (Federal Firearms Licensee).

 

Some people have proven they want to ban all gun ownership, and I think they are idiots living in la la land. But that will never stop them from trying.

Maybe she thought the GOP was dishing not taking the massacre?  Hard to say.  Poor Tiffany, Daddy rarely sees here even when she is in the room.    She didn't even rate the Pence Trump Millennial target piece.

Lonely Bumble Jack Posobeic has lots of free time since his wife left him and was out counting buses of "paid protestors" for the march.

Obama got a shellacking in the 2010 midterms over policy, Trump is going to get one not over policy but how terrible of a person and president he has been.
