Florida legislator wants anyone trying to buy ammunition to complete an anger management program first, in what critics say is the latest example of local lawmakers reaching for constitutionally-dubious solutions to the problem of gun violence.

The bill filed Saturday by state Sen. Audrey Gibson, D-Jacksonville, would require a three-day waiting period for the sale of any firearm and the sale of ammunition to anyone who has not completed anger management courses. The proposal would require ammo buyers to take the anger management courses every 10 years.

What’s the class curve and is it based on your voting history?

FYI to all: You can still buy rope without a background check or an anger management class. Also tar, feathers, pitchforks and material for torches.

The object is to have an official account that you “needed” anger management counseling, thus are ineligible to possess firearms.

“this kind of crap really pisses me off”

See, that’s why you need anger management training.

“I’d like to see IQ tests before anyone can run for office.”

Better run for your bunker - Moosechelle’s drone is headed to your place!

On all IQ tests for the last 100 years, blacks score remarkable lower than whites. seems blacks test out with about 40% scoring 80 or below. Whites have only 10% scoring 80 or below.

.....or just another means of registering that you have a gun. Back door registration.Or your scenario of the instructor failing 30 or 40% of the class. They also will decide what the criteria is for passing.

Anger management? I target shoot (put holes in paper) and do trap & skeet. Where’s the anger as I’m just trying to improve my aim to make a better score. Are bowlers or golfers mad or made when practicing for better scores? My firearms are no more likely to endanger others than what one finds in a golf or bowling bag.

Typical urban lib; dumber than a box of rocks. Just when you think these dingleberries can't redefine stupid, another one comes along and lowers the bar even further.

The only think I despise more is the legions of mindless orcs who vote these cretins into office.

I guess it never would occur to her that gun owners don't have any 'anger management' issues, or she'd know about it already, if you know what I'm saying...

The Senat-hor should amend her bill to include hammers, as they also have been known to be lethal.

"I think we should require lawmakers to take Constitution courses run by strict constitutionalists instructors and pass a battery of tests and then have ethics courses taught to them as well and pass more tests before they are allowed to write laws."

I know you can't see me, but I'm standing and applauding.

Everything I hear about violence from a communist takeover seems to accept the fact that the communists win. They are the most violent and win every time.

I would speculate that if they try violence here, they will get it crammed down their scrawny necks.

I can't believe that too many real Americans will stand around with their fingers up their butts and let a bunch of sanctimonious leftists take us over without a whimper.

...as for the "voters" who allegedly "elected" Zer0 and his merry band of gay blades, I accept the admonishment from Jesus on the cross..

...Father, forgive them for they know not what they do....

// If these misguided dolts don’t stop with this crappola, we’ll ALL need anger management! //

Hi, AuntB, that’s the truth! You are being much too kind by calling them “misguided”, though, ya know!

Thanks for the ping, Joe.
