So you can only own older guns? Are the newer ones more dangerous?

Fine, as long as they no longer get the right to vote, either.
If you’re too immature to own a firearm, you’re too immature to make good decisions on how the country should be run.
(11) has not attained 25 years of age, and has
10 been adjudicated by any court as having committed
11 an offense that would have been a crime of violence
12 (as defined in section 16) if committed by an adult;
25 years of age AND having committed a violent crime.
Oh, yeah, like that’s going to prevent them from obtaining a firearm.
This is BS. If you can go to jail for life, or serve your country, you should be able to own a gun and drink beer.(beer and gun at the same time are bad though :) )
Than you should have to be at least 25 to join the military.
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.
Understandable. People that young cannot be trusted not to kill another person. Unless they are having an abortion. Then we bave to “trust women” regardless of their age.

“So you can only own older guns? Are the newer ones more dangerous?”
Ok with me. My 1911’s are all older than 25 yrs as are my rifles and shotguns. Are the newer ones more dangerous? Functionally perhaps yes. The newer double/singles and double-only pistols are more difficult to operate and less accurate in my humble opinion. And, the newer pump shotguns commonly used for home defense can not be “pumped” rapid fire style while holding the trigger back. If two or three perps should break into ones home this would be a desirable feature doncha think?
But beer after gun is just fine.
Personally, I think that the sealing of juvenile records is a bad idea in today's society. It should rather be the case that they are accessible to the courts and law enforcement (and ONLY to them -- as far as colleges and employers are concerned, they are sealed) until the age of 25. If the person has maintained a clean record, THEN they get sealed. Any adult conviction, and the juvie records become part of your adult record.
This congresswoman took over Jesse Jackson, Jr.’s old seat.
She can write bills until the cows come home, and she will get nothing for it.
Basically, this is a ban on firearms by those 25 or under and have gotten dinged for something that would have been an adult crime as a juvi.
Damn, Boomers just love eliminating constitutional rights for non-boomers, don’t you?
Also come and take ‘em!
If you commit a violent crime aren’t you currently forbidden from buy a firearm? Not sure of the purpose of this.
