How about background ckecks and federal licenses for any person running for public office?

Absolutely! Also drug&alcohol testing, IQ tests, mental health exams and a test on the Constitution. All results to be published prior to being eligible to be on the ballot.

Do we need a Federal license to go to the church of our choice, disagree with our neighbors or politicians, peacefully assemble, write and speak our opinions, have a trial by a jury of our peers, not quarter soldiers in our homes except in certain limited circumstances, and other rights specifically enumerated in our Constitution?

If the answer is "no", then why do we have to apply for, pay for, and be granted permission by some government flunky for a Federal license to keep and bear arms if we are law abiding citizens?

It’s obvious they have made this election all about guns. I hate to say it, but this insanity will only be stopped if laws are passed to make all gun laws apply to EVERYONE across the board in all classes, no one exempt period. Law enforcement both on and off duty, private security, judges, politicians, EVERYONE. Let’s see how long these will continue to even be mentioned then. They won’t, they will be hamstringed and the argument and agenda will be completely over period.

Farticus is just trying to break out of the 0% category he is now residing in the primaries.

“This guy’s an idiot. Rhodes scholar.”

True enough. The Oxford students call them “Rhodents” and think little of their abilities to read write, or avoid raping women (in Bubba Clinton’s case).

Stupid question: Which of Congress’s enumerated powers allows for this?

None. And the Second Amendment forbids it.

Cory Booker is a traitor and a domestic enemy.

Tryin' to keep up with Beto O’Rourke without admitting he'd confiscate guns.

It only tells who the gun was stolen from, not who used it, who supplied it or how many times the gun changed hands.
And what stops a gun owner from obtaining at least one unregistered gun to use for that "special" occasion, if he was so inclined?
Just showing how pointless and ineffective gun registration would be when it comes to stopping someone with criminal intent.

“And what stops a gun owner from obtaining at least one unregistered gun”

Please use the term “undocumented “. It is so much more politically acceptable.

“the same time they require a license for free speech.”

Not much of that these days. Ever hear of political correctness? Speech is repressed and punished regularly.

Exactly, exactly, exactly. I've been waiting for someone on the booby or in print to offer such a challenge.

Of course even a "conservative" reporter wouldn't think (period) of blurting pure blaspheme.

No matter, even better seeing it here.

Actually, although I, like most of us, am totally opposed to this proposal it supports a contention of mine that I have made for years that the Second Amendment, like all Amendments, is a Federally guaranteed right that was agreed to by all of the original 13 states and each succeeding state admitted to the Union and therefore is not subject to interpretation or modification by any individual state as we presently see around America. How can gun laws be different from state to state yet when it comes to banning or “buying back” weapons the Federal government decision is supreme? A Federally guaranteed right cannot be capriciously rescinded without due process. And in this instance that would require a Constitutional Amendment which, as they well know, would never pass.
