Sure i was.. I am a law abiding gun owner I am Free by the CONS to travel as I please and to be armed as I wish anywhere I go......
Don't pretend to be stupid. I only bend the rules because the cops and the govt bend the rules. It can't be both ways.
....so do you often find yourself believing you are in 1873? Or perhaps you think you are some sort of Constitutional scholar? Or perhaps a Supreme Court justice?
Do you also believe in free white males being the only America able to vote or do you just pick and choose which part of the Constitution you like and defend with deadly force?
Actually, I think he's a caricature (he'll probably have to Google that) of a Neanderthal (that's two), the epitome (another one for him to look up) of a blowhard and would be amusing if his spewings weren't so self-servingly impotent and pathetic.
My guess is that those who have to minimize and belittle what others have done or accomplished in life have done nothing worthwhile themselves. Of course, I may be wrong but if not, we have a prime example in Mr. Kimber.
The Framers made it the Law of the Land that government cannot take away or restrict the people's right to own and carry guns and other such weapons. In part because they knew that the ONLY protection we really have against thieves, rapists and murderers, is our own vigilance and ability to fight back.
How many of the people applying for these new permits, will use their guns to shoot a bunch of schoolkids?
In Newtown, Gun Permits Surge After Shooting
Residents Cite Desire for Protection, a Rush to Buy Before Tighter Rules Kicked In.

NEWTOWN, Conn.—The number of people seeking permits to buy guns has surged in this town following the December massacre of schoolchildren by a local man, even as the parents of some victims had urged stricter weapons laws nationwide.
Through July 24, more than 200 people in Newtown have received new local pistol permits, according to a review of local records, surpassing the 171 new permits issued for all of last year. Such permits are prerequisites for Connecticut permits that allow people to purchase and carry pistols as well as rifles or shotguns. The rise in Newtown comes in tandem with a general upswing in gun sales nationwide and in Connecticut, which passed tough firearm restrictions after Adam Lanza shot and killed 26 people, including 20 children, at Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14. It was the nation's worst shooting of young children.
The local surge is especially sensitive in Newtown. The town of about 28,000, approximately 75 miles northeast of New York City, has a sizable population of hunters and sportsmen as well as a base of politically active gun-control advocates that has organized since the Sandy Hook shooting. "I think people realize that you can't call the police all the time and expect them to save you," said Newtown resident Bill Stevens, 48 years old, an avid hunter who owns more than a dozen firearms. "It's sinking in to some folks that 'I need to take responsibility for keeping my family safe.' "
171 last year, 200 to date this year, that is only a 30 permit increase to date. What is the massive up tick.
If it were 200 more above the 170 last year, then I say massive.
Massive, some think tiny means massive. Just ask their wives.
2 more in the dunce box. This playing stupid gets boring faster than I thought it would. That last guy wasn't even clever.
It that veiled sarcasm?
;-)
The "right to bear arms" does not require permission / license.
If you ask for permission, you're admitting that you have no right to bear arms.
Check the law in question.
