Here's something that will really blow your hair back- as the crime rates increase so is the opposition to gun control.
Guns
- Thread starter rgkv
- Start date
After all these years and you still don't get how the American constitutional amendment process works. Yikes!Or you just legislate the shit out of the 'well regulated' part of the amendment.
Of course- not remove, but repeal. But that will never happen with mobs looting.stores.
Again, if you want to compare guns to cars, an even start would be when guns need to be licensed, registered, and insured. Drivers while drunk lose the privilege of driving while drunk. Gun owners in mental health crisis should also lose their privilege. Thankfully 20 states agree with me and another 13 have them in the process.
Do you think people with a documented history of mental health issues where family and medical professionals see them as a threat to the public should be allowed to keep their guns?
Yes, it's sad that the deaths of black people don't move the needle. You know, systemic racism.
But do you understand why people are more concerned when schools get shot up that when gangsters shoot each other?
There is nothing preventing the SCOTUS from interpreting the 2nd based on the phrase "well regulated" (other than loads of gun lobby cash).
But the SCOTUS will no do that because they've already decided the matter. And even IF you get a liberal court to fulfill your wish, a subsequent conservative court will simply reverse it. That's why the only answer is repeal. And don't forget Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness includes the security of oneself. On the other hand, a constitutional amendment becomes part of the constitution with a heavy duty ratification process that cannot be changed without the equal and opposite political and social support. So, if the gun control advocates were serious, they'd make the repeal of the 2nd part of their platform.
Here's the biggest laugh of them all... 30 years ago I got busted with 5$ worth of pot.. I am now not allowed to enter the US because I am a dangerous person
My 75 y.o. neighbor is in the same boat. Might have the urge to pull a slice of pizza on someone or assault somebody for a donut.Here's the biggest laugh of them all... 30 years ago I got busted with 5$ worth of pot.. I am now not allowed to enter the US because I am a dangerous person
No wake up necessary. People are replaceable. No biggie. Guns are more important.
P.s. American are too idiots to understand the problem.
Because it doesn't align with the "systemic racism" narrative that democrats like to push?
I bet you don't have actual stats to back this up. In before, "households with guns are more likely to be shot by their own gun" bullshit.
Define "documented history of mental health issues...etc." don't forget there are people making the argument that wanting to transition should be considered a "mental health issue". Are you for denying "John" his constitutional right in the US, simply because they're considering becoming "Jane"?
Back to the stop-and-frisk; if you support proactive, preventative measures like red flag laws, surely you support other proactive public safety measures like stop-and-frisk or carding, right? [/sarcasm]
As the gun conTROLLs like to say, "if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to worry about."
