LOL!
“..and make veterans who had been prohibited from owning guns because of mental-health issues eligible to have them again..”
STUPID LIBERALS..Picking on Veterans yet again..(You) Idiots-Liberals, Hippies, Commies are the one’s that made many of these vets have “mental-health” issues in the FIRST place!
Since when is the last time you saw a “Vietnam Veteran” shoot up a school..NO, it’s the nutty culture infested youth that do this..Stop picking on Legal gun owners, and Veterans” DEMOCRATS!
These bastards are not going to give up until they confiscate all guns and ammunition from law-abiding citizens and deliberately leave them in the hands of criminals.
The problem is there are many so called Republicans who personally believe there is no reason for citizens to own guns. Some even say there is no reason for a citizen to own an “assault rifle”. (no clue what they mean by that themselves)
I remember hearing this from republicans during the 2006 election. Most of them do not have an educated clue about the second amendment. In fact most of them have erroneous knowledge based on left wing revisionsim about the second amendment. (the whole second amendment is in a vacume theory of law)
Democrats = Gun Grabbers
I hope the voters remember that in 2008.
“Most of them do not have an educated clue about the second amendment.”
This applies to educators too. In the gun-free zone at school, they are so paranoid they won’t let anyone wear anything that refers to guns.
One of our children regularly wore jeans with a 2nd amendment patch. Nobody at school ever said a thing about it. I’m sure they don’t even know what 2nd amendment means.
They probably thought it was a rock group.
Your’re welcome...sorry but I forgot how to post an active link to the thing. I like the Nuge.
And how would that stop criminals from getting a gun from his friendly neighborhood burglar?
Interesting point.
And I’ve always maintained that the NRA and Brady Bunch need each other in order to exist.
Wintermute is trying to make regulation so onerous as to have people “self disarm”
This is like that insane campaign for women to ask if a home owner has a gun and then do not let your children play there.
The goal is to create stigma, oppression, so people just give up like rats in an electrified cage with no escape. They just suffer and take it.
Illinois: The governor called a special session for lawmakers to work on a gun control bill geared to prevent a "large-capacity ammunition-feeding device" from being made or sold in the state.
THAT is complete bullshit, an outright LIE.
'my' ijit Gov called the special session because HE didn't have a friggen budget worked out and the state would've stopped.
Then when the General Assembly did meet he threw out (verbally) some proposed BS gun law because he still didn't have budget proposal - except RAISE TAXES on business - then HIS OWN rat party went freaking NUTS. They were ready to go native on him and kick his ___. And there still isn't a budget. An emergency spending bill was passed and that was it. So 'special session' for gun control my a$$.
And I swear, he is the stoopidist™ elected official in the country, the mope needs a GD keeper.
It depends on the state. Federal backgound check laws only pertain to dealers with a Federal Firearms License (FFL), not private sales between individuals. Here in Texas, and many other states, there is no background check or other paperwork required for a private sale at a gunshow or anywhere else. A guy that has a few guns to sell from a private collection can rent a table and sell without a background check or federal paperwork. (This is NOT so in California, where state law requires all sales go through an FFL dealer.)
When I am selling firearms from my private collection, I only need to know the purchaser is age 18 or over and a resident of Texas (I ask to see a TX drivers license) and I'm legal. No paperwork required.
And you would be wrong.
The gun issue is only a part of what the NRA does. If gun control would finally end, The NRA would be involved with more ranges, competitions and collector associations. High schools might have shooting teams again. The towns and cities might stop building ball parks for once and start public gun ranges.
It wasn't an issue in 2006. The neoCOMs recruited RKBA candidates. They took over the Congress. Now they're stuck on stupid again. It's fine by me.
I agree. That establishes a mutually agreed upon transfer between parties and acknowledgment that the seller was paid for the merchandise and the buyer received it. A date and time would be good too. Just in case the buyer does something improper on the same day, but at a later time than the sale took place --OR-- the seller did something improper before that date/time.
They just can’t get past the big old cow pie in their path to a socialist utopia.
They come away with crap all over em every time......:o)
DNC lets this polidiot parade towards gun control continue they lose the congress and the white house in 08 IMHO........
Stay safe Joe !
They might like to but they probably make so much money from opposing gun control issues that they couldn’t quit if they wanted to.
Wrong again. Why would they be unhappy about throwing money at politicians?
If you have ever competed, you might have noticed there are competitions where one has to be a member of the NRA to be there. Consider if there were competitions like that in every town and city. I have to drive about three hours to get to a decent High Power Match that doesn’t use reduced distances. Imagine if that sort of range was in your town and not a dozen or so towns away. There are a number of states that don’t have the facilities that Texas has.
The Second Amendment Sisters and the Gun Owners of America would be gone a lot faster than the NRA. For the NRA, it would be the 1880’s all over again when shooting was the national sport.
It is amazing that the feds to not have enough “resources” to track illegal immigrants, but have more than enough to violate the constitution in tracking legal guns.
One would think that they are on the dark side of the force...
