We are about to lose some freedom...

I stated this as speculation and not fact. The speculation of professionals in the business and one member of the FCC panel. Forgive the typo my eyes are blurry today. How is it different? Let me ask you this, if it wasn't different then why are they passing this thing without making it public? Originally Posted by JD Barleycorn

Really? Are people knocking on your door, questioning you about your political posts on the internet? Dragging you out of your home and putting you in a political prison for extended periods of time? This isn't a soviet style anything. Pure hyperbole. Originally Posted by UnderConstruction

Shaneen Allen had a concealed carry permit which she got after she was a victim of a crime. It was from Pennsylvania. She was arrested after she was stopped in New Jersey for a traffic violation. She volunteered that she had a weapon and a permit. She committed no crime. She is facing three years (after losing her job and the threatened loss of her two children) in prison for playing by the rules and being honest.

Gordon VanGilder is looking at 10 years in prison for having a 300 year old, antique firearm in his car. He had just purchased the weapon and was driving it home. He is a 72 year old, retired school teacher with a spotless record.

I guess we'll get to see what's in it now.

You don't know why you won't answer my question? Have you sought therapy? My question is, do you think it is proper, in a free society, for the government to draft laws and enact them without the public being able to see and comment on them first?

I guess answering a question is too difficult for you. And FYI, I don't watch FOX news. I don't even have cable. FOX is no different than CNN, MSNBC, or the rest of the state-controlled media.

You're a special kind of stupid, aren't you?

I encourage everyone else to do the same with this lying sack of shit.

The matter of states Rights enters into the picture when there isn't a specific Constitutional issue. The Constitution always, or should, trump any State Law.

For instance, Gay Marriage, Rducation, Abortion, etc. There is no mention of any of these in our Constitution. In fact , the Contitution plainly states that issues not raised in the Document are reserved for the States and the People.

The Constitution specifically addresses Gun ownership in The 2d Amendment. Only because we The People have allowed such a warped and convoluted interpretation have States such as New Jersey been allowed to pass these draconian laws concerning a right of the People that is layed out quite specifically in our Constitution.

We can argue all day and night as to what gun rights, and to whom these rights, are granted by the 2nd Amendment. And after arguing all day and night we will probably not agree. The states cannot agree. The courts cannot agree. The 9 members of SCOTUS cannot agree. Yet YOU know EXACTLY what the 2nd Amendment states and how it MUST BE interpreted.

Give me a break.
