If those folks have registered themselves as a gun owners, they are pretty much playing obama's game already.
What we need more than gun reforms is sentencing reforms. Currently, something like 1% of all homicides are punished with a death sentence. I’d like to see that number rise to 50%. It would also be nice to expedite the trial, sentencing and appeals procedures for capital crimes. Singapore completes the whole process in 2 years. Its homicide rate per 100,000 people is 1% of ours.
After seeing the total destruction in Japan, does anyone not realize this orderly and comfortable life can be turned into a primitive jungle in an instant?
Bring it Kenya child, you have the reigns but you sure as hell don't have the horse.
Hey nobama, you worthless POS, what kills more Americans each day, guns or abortion?
Huh?
Neither did the 94 million law-abiding gun owners who aren't registered.
The 2nd Amendment is my agreement nothing less.
Every time the self-defense denialists raise this issue, our legislators should respond with a non-stop barrage of bills and amendments that eliminate restrictions on the right to self-defense, and strengthen the legal safeguards for the unfettered exercise of that right.
Make them afraid to even mention the subject.
Not long after the shooting happened, I remember reading that it is easier to get someone involuntarily committed in Arizona than in most states. If that is true, then the young man involved should have been evaluated before the shooting and before he bought his gun.
Not only had he had previous legal difficulties, which were glossed over and not used to mandate a mental health evaluation; he was expelled from the local community college with the explicit instructions that he not return until he could present evidence that he was not a danger to himself nor others.
That certainly should have triggered an involuntary commitment action.
The failure here was not a failure in the gun purchasing system; there was nothing in the system to set off an alarm. The failure was not in the mental health system, which can't help people it does not know. It was not a failure of the educational system; the college can't seek a commitment.
If the legal system- the local sheriff's office- had pressed for an evaluation when it first became obvious that there was a problem, then perhaps the young man could have been helped and the whole episode averted.
My point was simply that it is already against the law for a mentally incompetent person to buy a gun and that no other “gun law” could do more than that.
The man-boy can’t hand the JOB of President, now he wants to be the Governor of Arizona. GO F yourself you fag Muslim basturd.
Get the federal government, which is forbidden by the Second Amendment to infringe on any American's right to keep and bear firearms, out of an area where they are constitutionally forbidden.
We can easily implement this by passing my version of a Federal Firearms Freedom Act, which repeals all federal gun control and firearms taxes:
Federal Firearms Freedom Act
1) United States Code Title 18, Part I, Chapter 44 is hereby repealed in its entirety. 2) United States Code Title 26, Subtitle E, Chapter 53 is hereby repealed in its entirety.
The first part takes care of all of 922 and 923. The second part takes care of the Internal Revenue Code related to 922 and 923.
