“Already legal. Just pay the stupid tax.”


And what if the government put a $200 tax on the purchase of every gun - would you be OK with that? After all, they’d still be legal.

This is, pure and simple, an infringement on our right to keep and bear arms. Getting rid of this particularly odious law will still only partially return the free exercise of our rights to us, but I’ll take every little bit that I can get.

Rights are supposed to transcend all boundaries of space and time. Since my grandfathers COULD have bout suppressed full autos, I should be able to do so also (and too damned bad that neither one did, those would have been nice family heirlooms).

Not the point. The OP said “legalize” as if ownership was illegal. Restrictive and punitive are a different subject.
