It's HIGH TIME the 2nd Amendment was REPEALED. Sorry Gunforge ,your guns must be TAKEN AWAY from you

IF it were SOLELY up to me & ONLY ME I'd COMPLETELY REPEAL the 2ND AMENDMENT in a heartbeat.

People like you are the reason individual rights should never be subject to popular approval.

like abortion and gay marriage.

Absolutely.

not getting into this issue here except for this obvious drive-by:
1. Repealing an amendment is functionally impossible without a convention.
2. A repeal isn't necessary, simply a return to reading in the way that basically all legal scholarship read it up until about 40-45 years ago. Hell, just go pre-Heller and we're a lot better off.

not when you have Doctor Rogan to give you what you want to hear!

Why listen to experts when you can listen to people who make you feel like a rugged individual (TM)?

sigh... we've presented this a thousand times already, but here's a basic for the licensing. Most of you clowns would likely pass.

Here's the basics of once you are licensed to own:

That's a lot of text for the simple answer:

Repeal the second amendment.

In any sane society, owning a firearm is not a "right".

Fed wanted details, but I also needed simplicity, so...


But yeah... it's not really a right we need, now that the days of highwaymen are beyond memory.

Not for nothing our highest rates of gun crime are where "the individual reasonably requires it for the control of predators or other animals in a place where it may be discharged in accordance with all applicable Acts" is worth claiming.

EVERYTHING is a right for any individual who can exercise it without endangering others.

Allowing individuals to own an unlimited supply of guns and ammo endangers others.

False. There are people with large collections who never haver or will pose a threat to another person.

False. There are people with large collections who pose a threat simply by having large collections, which makes them targets for burglaries.

P.S.

That's crap. Ignorant crap. Nobody but gun owners are accountable, and they just have to exist to be guilty. Blisteringly fucking stupid.

Gun owners seem to feel they need and get away with having special treatment - which is something you abhor. It's not stupid. Gun owners SHOULD be held accountable. and should be the FIRST in line to demand responsible people only have the ability to buy, own, and keep guns.

Being considered innocent until PROVEN guilty is NOT special goddamned treatment.

It's not that. It's the absolute ability to buy, own, and keep any amount of guns and ammo you like. Every. I mean EVERY other dangerous substance is well regulated - except guns. That is special treatment.

They aren't a danger sitting in a damn cabinet somewhere. Not without human intervention. Focus on the thieving shitbags if you're worried about theft.

Neither is uranium.

Maybe if it's in a special lead container and didn't contaminate anything in transit. That's a strained comparison on par with the "same as nukes!" pigfuckery.

It's the same as EVERYTHING else that is dangerous. Uranium is just the first thing that popped in my head. Cars and licensing are regulated. Those are dangerous. THC is regulated. Hell, fertilizer is regulated.

Radioactive material is actively harmful just sitting there. This in no way compares to guns unless it's artillery with depleted uranium ammo or something.

So, let's go with fertilizer then. That's regulated. Most prescription medicines are regulated. Ephedra - which is a natural plant - is regulated.

How is that different from guns?

your refusal/resistance to even the most basic preventative measures pretty much proves that you are incapable of exercising the privilege of firearms ownership (and likely a lot of other things)

Drugs harm you, and you have every right to defile yourself to death. Nobody else's problem unless they decide it is.

Not sure what you mean about fertilizer. Unless you mean for making bombs.

I mean, there are regulations in the quantity and type of fertilizer you can buy. You don't know about it because it doesn't affect you. and guns do harm.

The preventative measure is to parent your fucking kids and leave shitbags in prison once they are caught. If you care about reducing violence, you shoud accept nothing less. But if you're willing to tolerate known violent people freely walking the streets, the needle on gun ownership will not move.
