Ping.
It might pass, in Durham.
What a pity the Second Amendment is silent about Keeping and Bearing Munitions.
It wouldn’t make any difference to these idiots if it did.
What a pity our Founding Fathers didn’t envision what a bunch of weaselly lawyers would infest our government.
I forgot. Your Constitution is only a suggestion anyway. Obama says so.
In the Peoples Republic of New Jersey long gun ammo is not a problem . However, if you purchase handgun ammo you have to have a firearm ID card and the purchase is recorded in a book. This includes any ammo that can be used in a handgun such as .22, .17 etc . as well as .410 shotgun because of the Taurus Judge on the market .
Perhaps we should just send all our ammunition back to ACORN?
I think we should do that as quickly as possible.
Like at 2400 feet per second.
If you read the Constitutional Convention debates, you'll find the Founding Fathers were a bunch of weaselly lawyers.
> Community organizer for the local NC ACORN group, The Rev. Melvin Whitley, says it’s too easy for criminals to buy ammo, and he plans to close that loophole.
There’s that term again, “Community Organizer”.
This is left-speak for a wanton declaration that says “Communist”.
“it says will save lives.”
the lives of criminals.
You have to be 21 to buy handgun ammo.
NJ already requires a background check and fingerprinting to buy “pistol” ammunition(which includes 22 rimfire). The law was enacted on 4/1/08. By looking at the murder and gun crime rates, you can see how they precipitously dropped after the law went into effect. Well, not yet, existing stocks are still being used but that effect will kick in someday soon. I’m sure it will, those criminals will go back to using clubs and knives.

The Founding Fathers need a little slack here.
The likes of Ayers and Blagojevich and Obama would never have been conceivable to them. Ayers would have been hanged long ago, Blagojevich would have been sent to penal servitude in Australia or Tasmania, and Obama would never have left the village in Kenya where he was born, unless it was to toil in a Virginia tobacco plantation.
It was a different world back then.
What defines ARMS?
A gun without bullets is just an expensive club.
We need to ensure that the definition of arms includes the whole thing.
If it can’t be used, then it isn’t arms.
I interpret the “bear” to mean to use, and that implies having ammo.
Any lawyers out there want to comment?
from the article:
“We have to make it clear we are not talking about gun control, we’re talking about bullets...”
bull****
“Blagojevich would have been sent to penal servitude in Australia or Tasmania”
Or Georgia. It sure WAS a different world back then. Pity our youngsters aren’t being taught about it.
“pistol” ammo?
thanks to the idiots that make all the rifle calibre pistols, isn’t *everything* “pistol” ammo now?
