Amazon 7 #152 March 30, 2011 QuoteQuoteWrong... I have had the training... from a VERY early age, I have the permit to carry and have proved my proficiency. Why do YOU expect others to not follow suit???? Haven't been really reading have you? Post #110 OF THIS VERY THREAD: 2. Training should be up to the person. I have no issue with States requiring training to get a CHL... In fact, you are ignoring that most States require training to get a CHL. So you failed right there. QuoteFace it.. I think you and your fellow travellers are unwilling to even abide by current laws and wish them GONE. Fail again. QuoteThat is why it certainly seems you and the other 1 issue warriors ie. the 2nd Amendment are failing to change with the times As soon as you start preaching that the 1st only applies to religions that were in existence in 1791 As soon as you start preaching that the internet is not protected by free speech, only printing presses. As soon as you start preaching that the 4th does not apply to cars and only horse and buggies.... It seems only YOU are not willing to change with the times with regard to the 2nd. Quote or even comply with the wishes of the Founding Fathers and what their intent was. Fail again... the Founding Fathers didn't want required training... YOU DO. I have already shown that the Founding Fathers wanted anyone capable to have a gun... and you have not even shown anything but your opinion to counter that. I have already shown that the SC agrees with MY interpretation.... Not yours. Who is not complying with the wishes of the Founding Fathers again? RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT.... So why do you and your fellow travellers go off on a bleating rampage ANYTIME anything comes up about your holy and sacred guns??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kennedy 0 #168 March 31, 2011 Your condescending tone does not speak well of your respect for the rights of others. I also notice you didn't bother to answer my very first question. So what do you think about requiring registration of all firearms? I'd like an answer to that one. Do you think the high firearms death rate in the USA compared to other western industrialized nations is acceptable? I am uncomfortable with the high homicide rate. I think it is ridiculous to be concerned about the item used. Otherwise I would ask you if the high motor vehicle death rate is acceptable. Do you think there's absolutely nothing that can be done about it? I'm open to suggestions. Do your think anyone should be able to buy a gun without a background check, even if it means felons can do so easily? Do you have any suggestions on how to enforce that? Do you plan to register every firearm? If not, then there is no way to make this happen. Do you think restrictions on the right of felons and the mentally unstable to own guns are reasonable? If so, how would you go about enforcing them? Yes. But you really need to get past this obsession with focussing on the firearms. I am still waiting for you to define "loony" "nutter" and now "mentally unstable." When you do that, we can have a conversation about their rights. If you mean someone who has been adjudicated insane, or who has been committed, then their rights are restricted in accordance with the law. If you mean anyone with a whacked out youtube video, or anyone that makes you uncomfortable, then I am not ok with curtailing their rights to make you feel better. I believe in due process. I don't believe in removing someone's rights without it. I can keep going with the if/then statements, but until you define your terms, I can't really discuss them with you.witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kennedy 0 #169 March 31, 2011 QuoteQuoteSo what do you think about requiring registration of all firearms? was not answered You have anything to say? QuoteQuoteWhat do you think about storage requirements of private firearms kept on private property? Up to the owner, but owner should also have strict liability for any accident or misuse. More liabilty than when some other items is stolen or involved in an accident? Why? QuoteQuoteWhat do you think about limiting magazine capacity? No opinion Good, we can agree that there is no reason to artificially limit magazine capacity. QuoteQuoteWhat do you think about private ownership of handguns? Fine We're in agreement there. QuoteQuoteWhat do you think about private ownership of military styled semi-auto rifles? Anyone juvenile enough to play soldiers is welcome to do so. I don't see anything juvenile about wanting to use a proven design of rifle that has a significant aftermarket potential. I just wanted to know if you were on board with the silly anti-gun idea that "assault weapons" are bad and should be banned. I'm glad you are not. QuoteQuoteWhat do you think about private ownership of select-fire or full-auto firearms? OK, but should be licensed. We can argue the merits of that some other time, but since that is already the case, it's good to know that you are not for the idea of expanding restrictive gun laws. QuoteQuoteWhat do you think about concealed carry? Should it be banned, licensed, or unlicensed? Fine but should have mandatory training and a background check. I think that's how Texas does it. So you are against the states that allow unlicensed concealed carry (there are a few out there), but you also oppose laws in Wisconsin and Illinois that prohibit concealed carry. Good to know. Are you also against states where concealed carry is legal but permits are never greanted (such as NJ, NY, CA, and others)? QuoteQuoteWhat do you think about open carry of firearms? Should it be banned, licensed, or unlicensed? If you want to appear like a macho boy, that's fine with me. I don't carry openly unless I am working a job where it is required (law enforcement, militrary, other security, etc). I also don't appreciate your suggestion that I would be compensating for something if I did carry openly. But I am comforted that you support open carry.

No answer QuoteWhat do you think about storage requirements of private firearms kept on private property? Up to the owner, but owner should also have strict liability for any accident or misuse. 1. Citizens are already liable for any accident 2. Misuse is already illegal QuoteWhat do you think about limiting magazine capacity? No opinion Thank you for your answer QuoteWhat do you think about private ownership of handguns? Fine Thank you for your answer QuoteWhat do you think about private ownership of military styled semi-auto rifles? Anyone juvenile enough to play soldiers is welcome to do so. Why is it 'juvenile' to want a weapon that works well? Is it 'juvenile' to play with toy airplanes and rockets? QuoteWhat do you think about private ownership of select-fire or full-auto firearms? OK, but should be licensed. They are already required to be registered (and have since 1934). Ever shot a FA weapon? In truth, in the hands of most people they are not as effective as movies and TV make you think. QuoteWhat do you think about concealed carry? Should it be banned, licensed, or unlicensed? Fine but should have mandatory training and a background check. I think that's how Texas does it. You do know that MOST States require mandatory training right? TX does have a good program, however. QuoteWhat do you think about open carry of firearms? Should it be banned, licensed, or unlicensed? If you want to appear like a macho boy, that's fine with me. You cannot see a tactical reason for open carry? You cannot see the benefit of open carry in Arizona in 43C (110f) weather? Now to play fair, I will answer you questions. QuoteDo you think the high firearms death rate in the USA compared to other western industrialized nations is acceptable? When I take into account that a good number are from suicides (I don't count suicides in skydiving deaths either) and LEO's... the number of murders is <13k... I think it is important to use that number and not include police shootings and suicides. In the U.S. for 2006, there were 30,896 deaths from firearms, distributed as follows by mode of death: Suicide 16,883; Homicide 12,791; Accident 642; Legal Intervention 360; Undetermined 220. And it should be noted that most of the 13k murders are criminal on criminal. Do I think that 13K is too high? It is higher than other comparable countries... But you will find that our violent crime rate is normally higher as well. 1. It is not the fault of the gun. 2. Places like Mexico and DC show that even with strict gun laws they still have violent crime. So is 13K too high? Yes, but it is not the fault of guns nor gun laws. It is much deeper than that and to just try and blame guns is short sighted. QuoteDo you think there's absolutely nothing that can be done about it? I think there is plenty that can be done about it. 1. Education: The higher the education, the lower the rate of violent crime. 2. Poverty: If people are not living destitute they are less likely to turn to drugs and engage in criminal activity. QuoteDo your think anyone should be able to buy a gun without a background check, even if it means felons can do so easily? Yes. Criminals do not follow laws. DC has gun crime, Chicago has gun crime, Mexico has gun crime (to include grenades and Full Auto weapons), all have strict gun laws. Drugs are easily available and are illegal. Making something illegal or difficult to get will not stop a criminal. QuoteDo you think restrictions on the right of felons and the mentally unstable to own guns are reasonable? If so, how would you go about enforcing them? Yes, most of the GCA of 1968 made sense. How do you enforce it? 1. Stronger penalties for criminals. 2. Remove reporting errors like the one that let Cho buy weapons. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
