What an asshole.
NO freedoms will be conceded or given up.
I’m damn tired of having fewer rights in this country then illegal immigrants or being part of the selected minority groups who get extra benefits in this government.
Are the illegal immigrants going to abide by the gun laws?
Hell no.
Lighten up Frances.
Rooney is Looney. Keeps this crap up he’s gotta go.
We should, as Americans, get rid of this superstitious fear of guns, and embrace the true meaning of the 2nd Amendment.
EVERY young person in America should be given a familiarization course of study in the feeding, grooming, use and proper respect of hand weapons. The old admonitions about a BB gun, “you’ll get your eye shot out, kid”, carries no weight whatsoever if the youth is INSTRUCTED in the proper manner of carrying, selection of target, framing the target, taking aim, firing the weapon, and accepting responsibility for the consequences of the trajectory of that projectile. The same goes for every caliber of pistol, rifle, shotgun or even a crossbow.
Now, of all the millions of youth who are given this instruction, there shall be some few who, for reasons of either being partially or even totally inept in being able to absorb these lessons, or because they simply cannot or will not focus on the duty to handle the mechanisms in a safe and predictable manner, therefore are to be kept AWAY from firearms of all kinds. This way, we are dealing with a MUCH smaller number of potential abusers, than simply prohibiting use of these sidearms to everybody on a blanket basis.
Otherwise, those who would abuse the use of firearms would be MUCH more difficult to identify, and because total prohibition is impossible to enforce, they will, by some means or another, gravitate to possession, whether legal or not, of the very tools of destruction society most wants them kept away from.
