Sadly, as you have just shown, some people do not outgrow the infantile level of thinking.

OK, maybe just plain inability to deal with their insecurities.

if you look at it, in most of the states in the USA you can be of any age, and not have a license or permit or even insurance on your vehicle if you only use that vehicle on your own private land.
by those sets of rules, I would go for all sorts of gun licensing, as no government would ever have any kind information on any kind of firearm I choose to buy.
That's how i learned to drive a car.I was 10 years old and driving 3 on the tree in the fields out back of places I lived... had a old plymouth wagon sat out back and I made it go again. I scavenged a battery from somewhere, and did what ever it needed done to just get running, then I learned how to drive it with my friends.

Dad had already taught me about clutching, so it was no big deal, until i was 14 years old and got busted for speeding, with one arm over my girlfriends should on a public road.

The system took so long to screw around, that by the time they started dealing with me i went and got my learners permits and sent that in in lieu of a driver lic...

That act delayed my driver's lic 6 months, but i didn't care because i never stopped driving on the public roads since...

These paper Tiger Laws only make sheep 'feel good'. Like Sheep thought Biden's AWB of 1994 did something, so the sheep put their heads back down to graze...

Sheep are seriously stupid creatures. I have scared 2 to death before. All you do is be some place they don't expect you to be and they simply keel over dead. Never ever raise your voice and say BOO to a sheep because you will kill it.. never fan your arms at one either, not even if it is outside it's pen.... That's how I killed my 2 sheep, trying to get them safe inside their pen.

Sheep can't tell the difference between a herding dog and a wolf....

For someone who is in their 60's, it's a true mystery as to how you actually made it this far with the lack of intelligence and maturity that you have shown in this thread.

I spent time in Fla..... There is way too much sunshine there... it does something to people who stay there too long.... That and the booze most fla people swill down...

Bob is at that level where if he had a gun it would be more danger to him and his own than it would to any bad guy. His whole chance at the rest of life is on his knees begging and pleading. Hoping the cops will come

Bob, You have it backwards...... Don't be waving your arms at those who watch Communist News Net or MSN!

Just because your mind is baked and you have no need of your Rights, doesn't mean you can just take mine.

I don't put on pants until I am armed, so what would i be afraid of? Hell if you were to threaten my wife or my life, one of us would simply shoot you and go about our lives..

I doubt i would bother to dial 911 ever.. But we do have lots of coyotes here. I mean just make that much fuss and muss over a bad guy..

Cops don't like all that paper work either, when they can be setting about down to Dunkin Donut's.

I have been to lake george 18th century tacticals where 20 somethings discovered I have been out many hours (most of the night) running the Mt Ridge line spying on the Brits or raising hell in their camps, and these kids want to try an tag along with me from the time they find out I am having a better time than they are

This is in late Oct ice in the bucket sort of weatha'. It goes on 10 days and there is NO Modern camping gear allowed period. If something wasn't around in 1750/ 1762 you can't have it
