I don't agree to a ban on handguns with clips, six shooters, or bolt action rifles. It's about balance of power. Think about it. Again... "When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." |

The point of the second amendment was that the electorate would have the same weapons that our government could use to impose their will upon us... By that, if cops (ie government officials) can have these assault weapons then so should you.. Its why they shouldnt have tanks, and should not have drones in the sky, without us being able to as well. |

If you manage to spray all the bottle, the pain will be so unbearable his control will be lost. You then run away and call the police.

I don't agree to a ban on handguns with clips, six shooters, or bolt action rifles. While I can agree with you on principle... the problem is, It is merely a stepping stone to getting rid of guns all together. That is what is ultimately wanted. I still can't figure out what someone expects to do with fully automatic weapons, etc. Do they think they can hold off the government using an automatic weapon if the government decided to take it from them? That being said, I can not and will not agree to any ban on firearms because I understand the true intent is to remove ALL guns from private citizens. I am the much hated poster that has been called all sorts of things tonight. Do any of you realize that they're are bans already in place? Like fully-automatic weapons? I don't agree with the banning of firearms in order to protect life and property... all of you hating me for my statement just gives me a list of non-critical thinkers. All I stated was that maybe the constitution would have been a totally different document if the founding fathers were here today in this time and age. Oh...and by the way, if you don't like what I posted, that's fine, but don't disrespect a person who fought for your country just because you didn't agree with what they had to say or misinterpreted it. Also...I'm a chick...not a dude, AFGW= A Few Good Women. I'm willing to bet that not one of the haters served at all and don't ever tell a Marine that they should be ashamed of themselves for having an opinion on a controversial topic. If you have been trained in firing a weapon, all you would need was one shot...one kill. You aren't fooling anyone shill. And we stand by our initial assessment. You are just another degenerate bullshit salesman. And we aren't customers. |

"Further by the text, States emphasized that the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons continued to sustain conflicts, exacerbate armed violence, undermine respect for international humanitarian law and international human rights law, aid terrorism and illegal armed groups, and facilitate increasing levels of transnational organized crime, as well as trafficking in humans, drugs and certain natural resources. Recognizing the primary responsibility of Governments in preventing, combating and eradicating small-arms trafficking, Member States welcomed the progress made so far in implementing the Programme of Action and the International Tracing Instrument, including the creation of national laws and action plans. However, they stressed that implementation remained uneven, and that challenges and obstacles still stood in the way of full implementation." What gun-ban? There's nothing about it on the record from the meeting, if it was a law, it would have had to be mentioned, and recorded. Last Edited by K.Kool on 11/27/2012 05:47 AM |

Among the extra hurdles added, people who now apply for Firearms Certificates have to provide two referees, and the police are able to revoke a Firearms Certificate in cases where the holder no longer has a good reason to possess firearms or ammunition. Certain types of firearm are hard to obtain in Britain without a stringent Home Office licence. These include automatic weapons and most handguns.

He tells us upfront what he will do. I didn't vote for him based on this and many other things about the man. So I'm fairly certain that he will use regulations to get this passed,i.e. lead in ammunition can cause birth defects ban lead for bullets and what do you have? very expensive bullets made from steel. Or put a non refundable fee on every box of ammo $100 or $1000 doesn't matter they will be out of reach for most Americans budgets. You say I will reload my own, well then make buying black power or nitro cellulose illegal unless you have a class 3 license. What I am saying is there are many ways for the Feds to make it impossible for us to own weapons without actually banning them. Me I say stock up if you haven't already. |

I don't support a ban, period.

And once again, I'm a woman...if you really read through the thread you would have known that, your just trolling. I may be many things...but a traitor I am not. Perhaps if you didn't quit school and moved out of yer mama's trailer...you'd git the gist of what I'm tryin ta say here. Go fuck a horse, jackass. Quoting: AFGW 21140569 You were no USMC Marine. Communist bastard you might be... but Marine, no. YOU are a traitorous bastard if you do not support the non-infringement of the 2nd Amendment in which the right to bear arms exists. Note it is a RIGHT. NOT a privilege. NOTE it cannot be infringed. You cannot change the Constitution unless there is a Constitutional convention and 3/5 of the States vote to amend the Constitution. So STFU and be a Marine, if you are one. I am not at all convinced. You pledged an oath to the US code of Military Justice. Either do what you said or you are without integrity. |

Are govt. agencies gonna go door to door and confiscate these weapons? 3. If these weapons were bought legally, but are now deemed illegal, is the govt. going to reimburse citizens for the cost of the weapon if it is confiscated? 4. Does the govt. expect it's citizens to bring knives to a gunfight? 5. A ban on these weapons is just not going to work out well. My final point: The second amendment was written during a time when guns were a pain in the ass to load and fire...so maybe our founding Father's would agree to a ban on semi's and fully automatic weapons. Yes, I own weapons...I've shot every weapon the USMC has in it's arsenal...even got my name on a plaque on the M60 range in 29 palms. I don't believe that I'd need and M60 to protect my family however. Some of the weapons that are legal now are a bit overkill-so I'd agree to a ban on those. I don't agree to a ban on handguns with clips, six shooters, or bolt action rifles. No. The founding fathers wanted people to bring a governments' gun to a tyrant govt. smackdown fight. It's not about hunting or 'convenience'. It's about shit like taking GM bondholders cash and buying Obama phones with it. It's about selling full auto weapons to drug cartels and telling people stfu, I don't care who get's killed. WhatEVER the govt will use on you, people need to have in spades to make up for a lack of training. That's what the founding fathers intended. Everyone is on the same playing field. Only one side is right though. |
