Gun Control

[Balzac89]

Ban on automatic weapons, Strictly licensed hand guns and rifles and shotguns for anyone who isn't a felon or has mental issues.

Automatic weapons are unavailable. What constitutes "strict" licensing of handguns, and what level of strictness will minimize mean/stupid acts with guns while leaving their basic role (personal defense of the citizen) intact? cn

Unfortunately the ones who make the guns banned are the same who we need the guns to protect us from.

I don't think there is a right answer to this. I agree that criminals will get their hands on guns regardless so I don't agree with being a sitting duck like us Cannabians. It's only fair that law abiding citizens be able to cap a mofo if threatened but as mentioned, how can u control the stupid acts? Obviously, some regulation is needed for the mentally ill and criminals but where do u draw the line. I like Canadian laws which make guns less readily available but the bullshit lies in the fact that u can't protect urself with a gun u legally own(stupid fucks). I think that when criminals know citizens are armed and allowed to stand their ground, them bitches are less likely to try something stupid. I don't know what the answer is. I believe we all have a right to defend ourselves but I also agree the less guns out there...the better. I'm contradicting myself in the same sentence that's why i say there is no right answer. I'm done brain farting!

 

[Moses Mobetta]

Government has folks thinking their right to defend themselves comes from government. I believe that right comes from being alive.

the only time we will need guns is when they try to take them from us


2nd amendment: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

If anyone thinks their taking my guns, ill take their life. Guns are the only thing keeping a tyrant power from rising over us. For you who think guns are bad well have fun working in a labor camp. Mabey ill come get you out when your mind changes lol.

yaaaaaaaaa ........

 

[lokie]

I believe in gun control.
If I know there is a gun near me I believe I should be in control of it!

What part of "Shall not be infringed upon" do you not understand?

My State Constitution says "shall not be questioned", i like it even better.

Yeah, cos you > USMC.

Id really like to see a citizen militia take on the US military...the Second Amendment is kinda obsolete tbh.

I used to go to moosehead lake every summer, also spent a winter there once at our cabin. Beautiful outdoors there.

 

[unohu69]

lol right? gun as are not the only thing keeping a tyrant power from rising over us. thats just false in every possible way lol.

 

[Moses Mobetta]

We had a cabin, my folks did with a boat dock where you couldnt see any people or other cabins from. I would sit out on the dock and fire one up in complete peace and quiet. Spent weeks there and never even saw another person.

Seems like the media is the tool used on us most

lol right? gun as are not the only thing keeping a tyrant power from rising over us. thats just false in every possible way lol.

The interesting bit is, when the Bill of Rights was penned, the arms in question were (excepting square-rigged warships) the most advanced military technology of its day. So if Article 2 were recognized as written, the only thing keeping me from owning a fully-operational Abrams tank or A-10 (with a full load for the Avenger) or even Ohio-class sub (with up to 288x W-88 warheads with the handy long-range dispenser) is the price tag and extended warranty (none). cn

Yeah but why do regular people need weapons of War like machine guns>?

A semi auto rifle is just as good if not better
