You support gun grabbers? You’re on the wrong site. Democrat Underground is for gun grabber supporters.
“You support gun grabbers? You’re on the wrong site. Democrat Underground is for gun grabber supporters.”
Ok, genious:
1. Define “gun grabber.”
2. Prove Barr is one.
3. Show where, anywhere, I “support gun grabbers.”
4. Esad.
“Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) asked Barr to update Congress on his view of the Second Amendment.
Barr said that even before the Supreme Court’s 2008 Heller decision, which upheld the individual right to bear arms, he believed that was so.
“I personally concluded that the Second Amendment creates a personal right under the Constitution,” Barr said.
It’s based on the Lockean notion of the right of self-preservation. It’s tied to that. And I was glad that — to see Heller come out and vindicate that initial view that I had. And so there’s no question under Heller that the right to have weapons is — firearms, is protected under the Second Amendment and is a personal right. At the same time, there’s room for reasonable regulation.
And you know, from my standpoint, what I would look for is — in assessing a regulation is, what’s the burden on law-abiding people? And is it proportionate to whatever benefit in terms of safety and effectiveness will be conferred?
As I said just a moment ago, let’s get down to the real problem we’re confronting, which is keeping these weapons out of the hands of people who are mentally ill. And I think all the rest of this stuff is really essentially rhetoric until we really get that problem dealt with, in terms of regulatory approaches.”
I have no problem with that.
Ouch, that's bound to leave a bruise.
