There's also easy ways to buy stolen cars online. Yet I don't hear anybody calling for "Car Control".
What's that? You mean, the majority of cars that are bought online are bought legally?
Well, so are guns.
You're smarter than this. I know it. Is buying stolen cars online against the law or not? Buying guns online without a background check is not. Use your brain because I know it's a smart one.
You used to hold a Federal Firearms License? Or you sold them privately?
Forgive me if I find this very hard to believe. You trust the government when it comes to Gun Control WAY too much for me to take you seriously about that.
But, by all means....I welcome your explanation.
This is my business. I don't need to convince you. I know what is true.
Because, despite what they claim, they don't support the 2nd Amendment, and they sure as hell wouldn't support a legally armed citizen using a firearm to protect themselves with. ESPECIALLY if it's carried legally in public.
And I've yet to see even ONE bit of evidence that says otherwise.
It's because they're smaght... (see neuro-linguistic programming below)
I'm afraid this is where you lose credibility, and let me explain why.
Too often, that very logic is used to justify prosecuting innocent people who have had to use a firearm for self-defense to appease communities when an "innocent angel" is shot and killed. They don't care if this person was violent, had a criminal history, or was even in the process of beating the fuck out of someone or trying to steal their firearm.
They just care about EMOTION. And they call defending yourself "negligence", and then ask why the innocent angel had to die, and why the shooter couldn't have shot him in the leg. Or something equally stupid.
If this happened to me....you think my insurance company would side with me, despite the fact that I was lawfully cleared in the shooting?
I don't think so. I've studied, read, and seen too many cases of good people being prosecuted on bogus charges because they chose to exercise their right of Self Defense with a firearm for me to believe that. And often times, that logic is used either to appease a group of people, or they are prosecuted for political gain.
So, my question to you is: what defines a "terrible tragedy" to you?
Don't make stuff up as you go along. There was a terrible tragedy when the little girl shot the guy at the gun range with the other. What the fuck was she doing with that UZI in her hand? There was a terrible tragedy when the two year old girl shot her mother while playing with her firearm. They always call it a terrible tragedy and no one is held accountable. This should be rules in place to prevent that.
So you don't agree with Patient Privacy?
Okay. Then tell us your medical history and information, so that we can determine if you're safe enough to live among us.
See how that works?
So again you guys are full of shit. You don't want to do anything about anyone with mental illness getting a firearm yet you will preach to the High Heavens that something should be done about it. What the fuck are you going to do? That's right, crickets...
Don't give me a strawman argument here. I personally give a fuck all about Marijuana or the laws governing it. Quite frankly, it needs to be legalized at the Federal Level, and states need to figure out for themselves what is okay and what is not.
When you can explain to me what a registry of legal gun owners will do to PREVENT crime, and who's in charge of keeping the registry, then we can discuss that in more detail.
But quite frankly, I'd rather have a public registry of violent repeat Felons and those associated with Gangs before we have a registry of law-abiding gun owners. I mean, why would you focus on tracking those who break no laws, rather than those who do?
It's not a straw man argument. There currently is a registry of marijuana purchases in Oregon. Whenever you go to a dispensary they take your name and your name is attached to how much marijuana you purchased that day. Because you cannot legally purchase more than a quarter ounce a day if you are a recreational user. Now, how do they know how much you've purchased in the day? Because there's a goddamned registry that's why. Also, nowhere in my post was at advocating there be a registry for firearms owners. I was simply stating that you all are completely fine with there being a registry for marijuana users because you know, it's so dangerous...
Yeah, you can get out of my face with that crap too. I've yet to hear ONE Republican blame Obama for 9/11. If anything, I hear way too many Liberals blaming Bush for 9/11...despite the fact that the planning for it started LONG before he was even a candidate for president.
I know this is the daily show but they're asking real Trump supporters questions and letting them hang themselves. You should watch the whole thing because it really illustrates how stupid a lot of trump supporters are. But go to 3:29 of the video to see what I was talking about.
Rudy Guliani is a fucking idiot...
That's funny....because I've yet to hear them say "Support the Gun Manufacturers". They usually say "Support the 2nd Amendment", and supporting the 2A is about SO much more than buying a gun. There's competitions, discussion panels, training courses and schools, public education, and studies of history and laws that all support the 2A. And all of which is supported by the NRA.
If anything, there are many gun owners who are currently upset at many gun manufacturers for what they see as price gouging and rising costs. Not to mention putting out a lower-quality product (I'm looking at you, Freedom Group and Remington), and charging people way too much for it.
Obama says lots of shit. Do you believe it? There's a reason for terms like gun control and pro-life. It's neuro-linguistic programming. Think for yourself. Don't let them program you.
