Do you make the decision who does and doesn't?
I find your comments to be libelous and slanderous against gun owners. You need to curb your postings. You are clearly a drunk or a nut. See how that works?
Re:
So who gets to decide?
You? Obama? Schumer?
In reality, there should be ZERO gun laws.
Commit a crime with a gun and be put to death or put away for along time.
Why us anyone walking the street if they cannot be trusted with a gun?
Anti-polygamy laws were religious neutral - no one could have more than one spouse, not just the Mormons.
The Riot Act was a British law, so it did not violate the Constitution.
Of course rights are not unlimited. They can be limited when they interfere with someone else's rights. But my right to keep and bear arms does not interfere with anyone else's lawful exercise of their rights. If I do interfere with their rights, there are other laws to deal with me.
Can we restrict rights based on a record as a felon or a legal finding of insanity? Yes, but that has to be decided by the representatives of the citizens. Do we forever forbid someone who committed a crime from ever owning a firearm? Does someone who had psychiatric treatment permanently lose their right? That is why we have a representative form of government - but they have to have a good reason for restricting anyone's rights. That is why we have elections and courts, to check the representatives (when working correctly).
Whose? Yours, mine, the idiot in the White Hut?
“I know, I know it is all a dream towns never learned to limit the carrying of guns within their town limits; Wild Bill was never shot in a bar; the Gun Fight at the OK corral never happened. You people are unreal. ALL Constitutional Rights are subject to the rule of common sense. Free speech is limited by laws of libel and slander; Religion was limited by forbidding polygamy in the 1880’s; assembly by “The Riot Act”. Not everyone should be allowed to carry a gun. We have had recent examples. Do you really believe every drunk, and nut should carry a gun?”
Humm, you want to limit who should be allowed to carry a gun. That is straight from Obama as he also wants to limit people who can have a gun, so who is going to make the rules for having a gun - you or Obama? The constitution is the ultimate rule, but you and Obama want to change that.
Obama, about two/three weeks ago, told his Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, to search out Veterans and the elderly who THEY think should not have a gun and put them on the “YOU CAN'T HAVE A GUN” list (no that is not the name of the forbidden to have a gun list but it should be), so they can't buy one.
This new emphasis to prevent these people from getting a gun, starts in earnest in November. From what you said, you are in favor of this - preventing people from buying a gun based on whatever criteria “you” want.
