thats a load of bullshit and you have lost all credability you had remaining.
So then the country of the US&A was not illegitimately stolen by way of the gun ?
And this is where we went off track.

Leanlifter, you present an interesting proposal, allow people to own whatever guns they like (within certain restrictions) so long as they are not stored in the home. We already have gun ranges that own and allow you to operate guns that are otherwise prohibited from the public owning, what about one step further and allowing citizens to own guns, provided they are stored in a licence facility of some sort? Want to go hunting, pick up your guns at Store-and-Save, then when you are done lock them up again there.

Please stay on track, it diminishes your credibility and your argument when you don't. Plus it just starts a flame war and becomes spam, both for which you can and will be banned.

We have gun ranges like that in Canada where the gun range sells all kinds of guns from chrome out 50cal Desert Eagles, 357 magnum revolvers, 9mm, Rifles etc etc etc ... The catch is you don't even need a license to own or shoot/clean/maintain the gun after you buy it but you must store it on site at the gun range and it will never leave the range unless/until you acquire the license to posses a gun.

in the magical land of Canadia it maybe perfect. and that would never work in the US not with the Second Amendment in our constitution.

You know that the Amendments are not permanent though. They can be changed and taken away.

and that has happened very few times which you could count with one hand and that taking away one of the main amendments from the Bill Of Rights would be impossible.

Why would the second amendment let people have guns in there homes without having a license/course that trains them how to handle, clean, store, and all around be responsible and take care of a weapon ? Why say Canada is a magic land just because it has proper gun regulation and low gun related crimes ?

handling a firearm is one of the most simple things to do its like riding a bike. keep it lowered not aimed at anybody, maintenance is easy as hell on most firearms I can field clean a M16A3 with a flashlight. Storing is also easy buy a Firearms Safe and put the safety on with it fully unloaded with another safe with Ammunition in it.

the second amendment ensures the right to bear firearms (excluding convicted felons and persons convicted of crimes that excludes them from Concealed Carry LEGALLY) to conceal carry, self defense and hunt.

Firing a weapon: 1. Know your Dominant eye hand configuration ( I use my left eye so its on the left side of my body with my hand on the stock) 2. Point 3. Aim 4. Breath (and when you end that breath your firearm is leveled) 5. squeeze the trigger NOT PULL.

Bam now practice and know your shooting properly so damn hard

Why say Canada is a magic land just because it has proper gun regulation and low gun related crimes ?

after all of the paperwork and money you have to put into owning a firearm only being able to have it store in a government sanction firing range? yeah thats real progression!

Response to We Need Gun Control 2012-11-04 06:01:53


and speaking of Firearms I missed Knob Creek Firearm Expo in KY again this year.. the only place in the country where you can actually shoot off fully Auto Machine guns like military grade, flame throwers buy any kind of firearm you want. damn if I only knew it was coming around and I saved enough money I would have gone. I been wanting a M16A3 and there I can get my hands on custom parts like longer barrels and High Cap mags. plus I been looking in the market for a nice Sniper Rifle.

The ranges are "Private" owned and operated businesses and you only have to store the gun on the range when "You Do Not Have a License" to own one. When you eventually acquire a license if you so choose then you may present it to the "Private Owned" range where your weapon is stored and you will be enabled to remove your property off the premises. Guns owners need licensing just as you would not expect people to be on the road driving a car without some sort of onus in the form of a license that certifies that the driver knows just WTF they are doing so as to not accidentally kill someone by way of dereliction of responsibility.

gun control does NOTHING, NOTHING AT ALL except leave innocent people defenseless, you really think someone about to rob or murder someone is going to get a gun legally?? if you do you're just a dumbass pointblank, just a complete fuckin idiot, im sorry but I love shooting guns, its like a sport

*If you dont want to be insulted*

gun control only effects people who get guns legally and follow the laws, criminals will get guns illegally and rob people much easier, they tried a gun ban in washington dc or somethin and crime WENT UP because they knew noone had guns to but theyre ass with

If a person is defenseless a gun won't change that fact. I think your ego has got in the way of logical thinking as I have never needed a gun of course the trick is to using your brain and not putting yourself in harms way which a gun does just that puts you in harms way. Plus when your trying to "be smart" with a gun in hand "protecting yourself" because YOU put yourself in a bad spot then you will go to jail for murder or some other charge point blank and period not worth the hassle.

yes It does I know the gun laws in depth both US and Canada and its assinine in canada. I own Firearms (plenty of them) and know enough that gun control in the US will only effect law abiding citizens yet criminals will still get guns.

You might want to look into something referred to as "The non Aggression Principle" ! Also you have the choice to move to a low NO crime area so it would hypothetically be your fault that YOU let someone break into your home at night. Also there's no guns in jail well YOU won't have one when you go there after you are tried for murder and receive a reduced sentience for murder under "Self Defense" of perhaps you may be able to convince the judge it was a crime of passion.

I live in a pretty nice middle class neighborhood that has a low crime rate.

Yet here we are, with a few stabbings, shootings, and break ins occurring over the past few years. You show just how privileged you are if you think people can just up and move to a low crime area. Here's the thing, you kill someone in justifiable self defense, you are not going to jail. You really show your ignorance

yea this guy said everything that I was about to say pretty much, except I livei n the country and you never know, I doubt someones gonna break in when I have 2 big dogs that bark loud as hell (only 1 would probably bite tho) BUT if they do I have all the legal right to shoot the intruder

"A lawful occupant within a home or other place of residence is justified in using any degree of force that the occupant reasonably believes is necessary, including deadly force, against an intruder to prevent a forcible entry into the home or residence or to terminate the intruder's unlawful entry (i) if the occupant reasonably apprehends that the intruder may kill or inflict serious bodily harm to the occupant or others in the home or residence, or (ii) if the occupant reasonably believes that the intruder intends to commit a felony in the home or residence." yea I love living in North Carolina

answer me this Leanlifter I live in Western Minnesota/Eastern North Dakota I live in a town of about 130,000 we have a low crime rate, but with the Oilfields paying up the yazoo for workers were getting people from the West coast and the South (all sorts of trash) Originally we had a low crime rate but with oil field workers coming from all over the country crime has soared 200% and there have been many break ins in PRivate homes and alot of people in this region are armed (3 to 1 gun ratio)
so someone breaks into my house trying to rob and murder me and my family im suppose to just let it happen??? I did nothing to be robbed, If someones gonna kill me ill shoot them right in the chest you dont have to murder them, I just wanna stop them and if they die....they shouldnt of broke in my house

and its been happening often and these people dont get convicted of shooting burglars.

Sorry lean, but almost every (possibly every, I don't feel like looking up 50 different state's laws, especially now I no longer have free access to Westlaw) state has the castle addition to self defense meaning that in order to protect one's personal home (not second home, or ancillary property) they can use dedly fore to repel an intruder. The castle exception makes the intrusion per se (not 100% on this, but pretty confident) a danger of serious physical injury. Otherwise deadly force would only be allowed in protection from harm to people, not property, and that expected harm must be seriously injurious or deadly itself.

You're fighting a losing battle here.

Murders do go to jail for murdering and just cause there's a law that says killing is allowed in the home does not make it just and morally right. If your a murder you need to be locked up and studied.

The problem is most people talk big and puff out there chest but when the bullet hit the bones and the blood splatters and they realize they have killed someone it's a different story and they also think they will have time against some that potentially stronger and faster than them what if the victim gets shot first dummies LOL.

Murder is morally wrong and I don't care that you guy's think it is just because the corrupt Law says it is. Oh and that is the same Corrupt Law that has destroyed your country and buried it in a debt it will never recover from.

The 2nd Amendment is permanent, though, both in how it's been worded and in how the Supreme Court ruled in Heller vs District of Columbia, which reaffirmed the right of the American Citizen to keep and bare arms. From a legal point of view, it will never happen. Our right to keep and bare arms is ironclad.

From a practical standpoint, even if you could overturn the law, it would be the most ineffective thing for the government to event ATTEMPT to enforce since the Prohibition of Alcohol and the "War on Drugs." There's an estimated 310 Million firearms in the in the United States as we speak (source: CNN by the Numbers. That's almost one gun for ever man, woman, and child in this country. As a law abiding citizen who has a clean criminal background, I can walk out of my door right now, go down to the local pawnshop, get a pistol and ammunition for it, and be back in under 45 minutes. Or a shotgun. Or an oh-so-scary looking "Assault Rifle" or "Sniper Rifle" as they are called (which are really just sporting weapons). That's if I want the gun's serial number permanently linked to my Social Security Number. If I don't, I can always buy a used firearm off a friend who bought it off his friend and so on, the law can't and won't do anything to stop such transactions because it's a violation of the Interstate Commerce Act and will have ramifications so far reaching as to make the very hair on your head hurt.

Now, those are just LEGAL means I can speak of to acquire a gun. Do you really want me to speak on how easy it is to illegally acquire a firearm, with no serial number than can't be traced? Or how easy it is to construct a simple zip gun from parts you would get at a hardware store? How about a gun that requires no skill to construct and requires no license at all to acquire?

And you think you're going to be able to legislate against this kind of thing?

You are dumber than I give you credit for.

Because unlike Canada, the majority of us grew up with firearms and already know how to do these things (you know, that whole "1 gun for every man, woman, and child thing"). And if we don't, it's very easy to either (a) find somebody closeby to show us or (b) sign up for training courses to do those things.

Why say Canada is a magic land just because it has proper gun regulation and low gun related crimes ?

You guys got ahead of the issue before it became a problem. You cannot apply the same kind of legislation in the United States and expect the same result,.

At 11/5/12 01:32 AM, leanlifter1 wrote: If a person is defenseless a gun won't change that fact.

Would you say that to somebody holding a gun on you? "Oh, you're defenseless, a gun won't change that fact." They can kill, maim, or seriously wound you with a single shot, and it's as easy to do as clicking a mouse.

I think your ego has got in the way of logical thinking as I have never needed a gun

Your experiences are not representative of the rest of the population at large, and as such, do not apply.

of course the trick is to using your brain and not putting yourself in harms way which a gun does just that puts you in harms way.

So simply having a gun puts you in harms way, hm? So I could just be walking around, minding my own business with my sidearm concealed on my body (or openly carrying, as some states allow without a permit), and I'm just going to ATTRACT harm my way? How does that work?

Plus when your trying to "be smart" with a gun in hand "protecting yourself" because YOU put yourself in a bad spot then you will go to jail for murder or some other charge point blank and period not worth the hassle.

The trick to carrying a gun is using your brain and not using it in a manner which will put you in harm's way. If you have an opportunity to use it, do so, if not, don't risk it. But be aware that when you use it to defend yourself, the situation will be reviewed by the appropriate authorities, and you do run the risk of going to jail for murder if cannot justify pulling the trigger.

But that's a risk I'm willing to take to defend my life, and to defend the lives of those I love. It is not your place to question it, or revoke my right to do so.

You might want to look into something called "Castle Doctrine."

Also you have the choice to move to a low NO crime area

Move to Singapore, then. They have the lowest incidence of crime in the modern world, lower than Canada, even.

They also beat people there with bamboo poles as a punishment attached to their prison sentences, but that's for another topic.

so it would hypothetically be your fault that YOU let someone break into your home at night.

So if somebody busted down my door, or picked the lock, it would be my fault my house got broken into it?

Does your Special Education teacher know you're online right now, much less that you have access to a computer with an internet connection?

Also there's no guns in jail well YOU won't have one when you go there after you are tried for murder and receive a reduced sentience for murder under "Self Defense" of perhaps you may be able to convince the judge it was a crime of passion.

Again, Castle Doctrine. I have a right to be safe in my home, and I have a right to defend myself and my loved ones from harm. If I find you in my home after dark and you aren't welcome here, you have one of two options; you can walk out of here of your own power, or you can be carried out in a body bag. Or, option 3; don't break in at all, thus saving us both the trouble.
