Gabriel Giffords open to gun confiscation

Since I started the OP I think I know what it was about. It was about an opinion maker putting it out there that she would a class of from owning weapons. A class of people who have broken no law and have done no wrong. She wants to set the precedent that government can make these determinations. That was the point of the OP.

So, JL, what is an ALMOST absolute right?

Is that like ALMOST dead? Or ALMOST real?

Before one is "FOR" something it's always helpful to define the focus of the "for"!

This country has "gun control" ... !!! Next topic?

People talking shit about "gun control" is like the same people talking shit about ...

If the country wants more gun control, then they need to change the constitution at this point.

However, we could use the tactic of gun control somewhere down the line, and political support for a change in the constitution, if something of great value were offered.

Not to mention folks were OPEN CARRYING long before driving motor vehicles. Originally Posted by LexusLover

What was it about then?

You failed to show any constitutional provision protecting the right to own and operate an automobile that is comparable to the Second Amendment which guarantees the right of a citizen to own and bear arms, you Mussulman-luvin, Hitler worshipping, lying, hypocritical, racist, cum-gobbling golem fucktard, HDDB, DEM.

Bought a 9mm yesterday. Even though I have a LTC license it still took me 45 minutes to complete the paperwork, get approval and walk out the door.

Did you try to "display" your "9mm"?

Are you suggesting that I can no longer carry my legal-in-length shotgun on the rack in my pickup .... in the clip-rack installed in my personal vehicle on the dash?

The sky is falling", you chant "They're out to ban all guns. They're out to ban all guns."
