Btw, I own plenty of guns. We just need to keep them out of hands of nuts. If we bury our heads in the sand, we will turn into Brazil, or Columbia or a Mexico. Originally Posted by FrankZappa

If you want a gun then you have to buy a license for each gun yearly. If you want to own 10 9mm's than you have to explain why. They will ask you why you need 10 9mm's or 5 AR-15's and you have to pay a tax on each one yearly and they know who has them.
Please explain how to "keep guns out of the hands of nuts" - which means anyone not DPST Socialist totalitarian.
You got a constructive answer - let[s hear it.
It is a DPST cover for confiscation of all weapons - not just firearms, but edged weapons, pointed weapons, clubs, bows and arrows, axolotls, and slingshots - not to mention stones.
After all - Nanny State knows best - A dull spoon might be appropriate after elimination of knife and fork in the DPST future - but only registered and licensed and regulated, with a four year training program mandated before use. Originally Posted by oeb11

Thanks, instead of addressing the article you just say it is a lie. Originally Posted by FrankZappaNo, you used the word "lie" not me. I just said it is more likely based on poor statistical information (by making an obviously sarcastic remark based on my own personal experiences THERE!), since those countries have unreliable, biased reporting of deaths and causes of death. Only surpassed by their failures in the "criminal history" records they produce for proper "background" checks.

If you have to pay a tax of $100 a year for each gun, it would cut down on the amount of guns people have.
People don't need to own military style weapons. They are not useful for anything besides shooting a lot of people.
No gun show sales without a background check and it should come with a psychological background check as well.
The gun shows are just loopholes to sell guns to places where guns are illegal and are used to sale guns to central and South American drug dealers in exchange for drugs. They are also used to sell guns to gangs in every urban area in the US to go to gangs like the crips , bloods and MS13.
My preferred gun for home defense is a double barreled 20 gauge and a 12 gauge pump. I have a 9mm and several hunting rifles. Chances are if someone breaks into my house I will call 911 if I can.
I have a crazy relative that had about 50 guns including assault rifles and he is a paranoid schizophrenic and would carry weapons in his vehicle and every room of his house until he finally shot someone and ended up in prison for 10 years.
He shouldn't have ever had a gun. One time I went to his house and he had Sten guns about 4 of them that he wanted to take to Mexico to sale .
After his stay in prison , he can't own a gun legally but he probably does. Many people that hord guns are not stable. Originally Posted by FrankZappa
