Regarding the request for advice via abuse report: My advice for you both is too disengage. Move on to other threads.

Depends on the state. Some states(non-’nanny states’) allow minors to drink at home under parental supvervision.

Most rights have exceptions not applied for minors.

“When they come for your weapons, they will get them, because they will be very selective and only get a few people at a time.”

What makes you think that “they” will get a few people at a time?

What makes you think that these “few people” aren’t backed up by a few hundred marksmen who can hit a target at 500 meters?

What makes you think that these federal Nazi goons can get within a mile of their target?

Answer my questions.

I’m getting real suspicious of you and your droning surrender monkey posts.

That analogy is not only imperfect, but completely inapplicable to the question. In the case you used, one is allowed to purchase and the other isn’t. In the case at hand, both the purchaser and the recipient are legally entitled to own the firearm.

bankruptcy laws need to change making the second amendment rights an immutable asset class which can not be taken in an individuals’ case.

the liberal lefts (and judicial) meme is that guns are “born” evil.

Judges hate the second amendment because the judiciary as a whole abhors any form of self help.

Leftist dogma also can not condone/bless/help those who help themselves.

Judges and the left depend on dependency.

Did you know those devices are not autonomous, and that people crawl out of them from time to time?

the government prosecutes on the bases of “guilty until proven guilty”.

prosecutors as a whole operate on the basis of “everyone is guilty” and therefore there can never be a wrongful prosecution.

a minor can inherit an automobile even though they are too young to drive.

Yes I dd Laz, drove my first one 59 years ago, well not that one of course.

Remember how the Southern Long rifle boys were brought to the surrender table?

a minor can inherit an automobile even though they are too young to drive.

That's the difference between ownership and control. Yes, a minor can own a car, or a bank account, or a business empire. However it does not automatically mean that they can operate them. He may not have keys for the car; he may not have the signature right in the bank; and he may not have a seat at the board of the company - even though he is getting dividends from 99% of shares that he inherited, and is technically listed as the owner.

In case of alcohol for this argument to hold water you would need to similarly separate ownership and control. Can a minor inherit a collection of wine? This could be an interesting case because clearly the collection would be very valuable. Most likely a trust would have to be set up to control the items until the minor grows up. He wouldn't be able to sell it until then anyway.

Regardless of all that, laws are not necessarily logical, with so many of them being written in haste to patch up some hole. So if the law says that a minor may not own a bottle of alcohol, that's it. Pick another heir.

OK General, where are you forming up your regiment?

If Patriots of old were here why did we not see them after Ruby Ridge or Waco? Why do we have our fighting men and women put in harms way whee they have as much to fear from JAG as they do the enemy?
