And I would not be so proud of having to ask government "permission" to exercise a RIGHT granted by GOD. All that does is give them a list of who is KNOWN to own weapons when the crackdown comes. You're actually OK with this?
The ONLY TIME government has any business whatsoever knowing who has what weapon is when that government has ISSUED that weapon to someone. Otherwise, for obvious reasons, it is NEVER good for ANY level of government to have such knowledge. In the cases of ACTUAL (as opposed to potential) misuse of a weapon, government in a FREE society has the authority to apprehend and prosecute the misuser, presuming he survives an encounter with an armed citizen. That is ALL the authority government has. READ the Constitution for the United States with your mind open to what the Founders actually MEANT and not what a socialistically-inclined modern FedGov WANT it to mean.
IIRC, you are mostly on the side of the gun-grabbers.
Marine, like I said before, my simple refusal to answer is not repeat not indicative of any stance on the Second I have ... witness from here:
To: Steve Van DoornMarine, I think you owe me an apology ...Wow we agree on something
One of those street-perps in Muskegon, Michigan robbed, then was preparing to rape one of my aged aunts IN HER OWN HOME -
- she laid him out with three shots from the .357 her late husband used to carry as a bailiff.
A firearm *is* the greatest equalizer ...
