"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the "PROPERLY TESTED" people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
Like so many other great idears, YUGE pitfalls on just who the deciders are as to "proper". And the deciders of who is and isn't "mental". And how easily will the "proper" and "mental capacity" be changed. Sort of like the definiiton of "vaccine" was changed. Who trusts the assclowns in the current cabal to be honest and trustworthy? You like your gas prices, you can keep your gas prices. To paraphrase the 2nd worst potus ever.
Better idea. Anybody running for any elected office should be fully vetted. A complete background check must be made.
And not to be flip, but this shooter apparently knew exactly how to operate his weapon, so the other criteria Voight discusses wouldn't have helped either.
These amendments were deliberately very broad....to cover every situation.
You have the right to keep and bear arms....period.
Read it properly and it says I can have it in my car, the barn the house...and bear means on my person.
And who makes that determination?
Leftist anti2A beauracracts would be making the evaluations. Enough said.
Yeah, right, Jon...let’s test all the KILLERS ....please tell me he isn’t this stupid...please
Bite me.
The arms are protected by the Constitution. The “schools” are not.
“We must identify every individual for their credentials for their mental capacity to vote. There should be proper qualifications for voting, and proper testing. One should only vote if they’re qualified and schooled.”
A teacher buddy mentioned to me that as soon as a teenager turns eighteen his record gets sealed. The teacher suggested that perhaps it ought to be maintained for several years to see if the teen has “changed.”
As an aside, you often see really, really young blacks flogging drugs openly on street corners. This is because as soon as they hit eighteen, their arrest record is erased. Maybe that ought to change as well.
It’s so embarrassing when Freepers respond to something they don’t like with inane, knuckle dragging comments. I remember when there were some real thinkers on this site.
How about we require firearms safety training in all schools receiving federal funds? To include safe handling of various kinds of firearms in upper classes, say 6th grade and up?
A Republican majority in the next Congress could put this in the education funding bill, if they won’t abolish federal funding of education like they should.
Aye, there’s the rub!
In nearly every case the perpetrator was “on the radar”. Yet government is unable to prevent these crazies from committing crimes (assuming that is actually an objective. One must wonder if it is these days).
In the days of the soviet gulags people were committed for being crazy “for opposing the party” because to do so was a sure sign of insanity.
Mr. Voight, ‘shall not be infringed’ mean anything to you, hello?
My knuckles, my choice.
Democrat or Republican testing
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State,
It is the whole package.
