I predict that the upper age limit will quickly disappear and all adults will face consequences for misbehavior as a minor.
Some liberal heads will explode when they try to balance the need to protect people from the consequences of early transgressions against the need to deprive some people of their right to keep and bear arms.
The ex-post-facto issue will also be very entertaining. There will be people claiming that they never would have pled guilty if they knew additional punishment would be imposed years later.
Are we endowed by our creator with inalienable rights or not. You want the government to be the gatekeepers on our god given rights. Disgusting on FR of all places.
Serious cleanup needed on isle 1-20. Shall not be infringed is really easy to understand. You pick a BS concept to allow infringement.
You probably own guns at home at least in part to protect your children in case a criminal breaks into your home. Will you give up your guns when this new law is passed?
Or do you expect that the new law will prevent only a tiny fraction of the shootings that would otherwise occur? There are very few mass shootings at gun stores and police stations. Why do you think that is?
Go vote for your eff’n POS RINO, Cornyn again. You are the problem.
A man (or woman) after my own heart.
Half of Congress believes that little boys should be able to decide to have their penises removed. If every nut case in the U.S. shot up a school the human race would become extinct.
That is the noble-sounding pretext. Let's look carefully at the implementation details and who enforces them.
The horrible truth is that we simply cannot trust the Democrats to enforce "Red Flag" laws for their nominal purpose. They want the citizens disarmed and will use every rational they can find to proceed with that program.
The other horrible truth is that we have a degenerated culture which encourages and rewards violent behavior from favored groups. It is an effective means of controlling a large population. Step out of line and a mob can be raised to assault you. You will not be permitted to defend yourself either.
Try to pin red flag on a black person you will get arrested for a hate crime.
By definition, every law affects the law abiding, and does NOT affect those who are not law abiding.
It’ll be too late by then.
Dad bought me my first .22 lr rifle at age 12. As a WW2 Marine and NYPD cop he knew firearms he spent hours with me teaching me about shooting accurately and most of all SAFETY.
I passed those lessons down to my children
Don’t look for the NRA to do anything. Lapierre seems more worried about his cars/suits the last 15 years than anything to do with gun rights.
It amuses me when the left tries to act like that no-spine, do-nothing org is the puppetmaster of the government.
Haven’t really seen them do any more than the NRA either.
You are wrong. Try going into a neighborhood at 3 a.m. to hold a political rally that wakes up your neighbors. You’ll be arrested for disturbing the peace, even though all you were doing was engaging in speech (protected by the First Amendment).
Gee, how soon before there be Anonymous Red Flag calls to Law Enforcement? Kind of like Swatting…..
Why is it absurd?
Finally someone who actually gets it. Thank you.
I just wanted to confirm your opinion: You are okay with a 13-year old being able to purchase an automatic rifle on his own?
