I don't see many solutions in this group, not much energy but it will be a campaign issue.
GOP Candidates' Positions On Guns Unchanged After Oregon Shooting
Quote:
Dr. Ben Carson said Friday in Iowa said early warning systems that identify a
possible culprit need to be put in place. "You're not going to handle it with
more gun control because gun control only works for normal law abiding citizens.
It doesn't work for crazies," Carson said.
On MSNBC's "Morning Joe," Donald Trump called the situation "horrible" and
noted that school shootings are "sort of unique to this country" but said
inferred that there's not much that can be done.
“I had this challenge as governor because we had — look, stuff happens,” he said at a forum in South Carolina. “There’s always a crisis and the impulse is always to do something, and it’s not necessarily the right thing to do.”
I don't know now all the steps but go back...the link is provided.
We have covered this. We refuse to have the discussion about whether or not certain people should be restricted but to stop them you are going to most likely have to restrict them.
As far as restrictions on others go the reason to avoid them isn't because some will get around them but rather because owning one is a Constitutionally granted rights.
All of our rights are unalienable as we are born with them. The Constitution does not give the federal government power to trample them. It's the same as one's heart beating, government has no power over that, though the liberal demo weenies think they do. They vote for the demo losers who think as they do.
Orwell and Rand would burst into flames if they saw the current state of the union. They wrote about it 60+ years ago and it is upon us.
“I had this challenge as governor because we had — look, stuff happens,” he said at a forum in South Carolina. “There’s always a crisis and the impulse is always to do something, and it’s not necessarily the right thing to do.”
Jeb is irrelevant. I have no idea how or why he is even in the same paragraph as other GOP candidates.
GOP positions on guns should not be a talking point. Only demo liberal weenies want to politicize and make a point of it. Why? It is the tip of the progressive liberal agenda. Mussolini and Hitler pushed the agenda and look what happened to those countries. World War what?

Do you wish to impose on the private sales of anything and everything? You are pushing a BIG BROTHER agenda hard, pal.
Does the pharmacist at your drugstore know everyone who comes in and buys opioids? No, and he has no reason to either.
The guns sold at NY gun shows to people by FFL dealers are required to have background checks because of squealing liberal democrat weenies who favor equality, LGBT and abortion above all else. Private sales are out of that loop.
Let's go for a ride around the block and make the deal. It's not illegal, it's private.
VA isn't going to budge; I don't care what the democrat liberal weenies in NOVA think. The rest of the state is wide open and conservative.
As for your link - a bill to ban the handling of guns for kids under 4? Really? Who is going to enforce it? How about toy guns?
Once again how does a private seller know who they are selling to without a background check.
Pharmacists require a prescription no?
NYS FFL dealers are required to do background checks at all gun shows, that is not particular to NYS.
Most gun shows in NY and other states have taken the extra step to require all guns sold at their shows have a background check including private sales

I was buying and selling guns, private property, to private citizens in parking lots, garage sales and my front yard before the panty waists here in Kommiefornia changed the law after Patrick Purdy shot up that school and forced law abiding citizens to go to an FFL to make sure Big Government was keeping track of all the good little boys and girls. Oh yeah it was Republicans at that time that passed and signed these new gun laws.
Yea... Funny how the rest of the western world doesn't have the same problem... Oh that's because we have gun restrictions that protect us from the mentally insane!! America needs to grow up!
Perhaps it would be a good idea to arm enough specialized personnel that would just "hang out" in civil clothes and intervene as needed? Hey...here's some job creation for you.
The idea that all private citizens should carry guns for self-protection and turn the US into a massive Wild, Wild West is obviously completely insane; but this...why not?
It looks like it might do some good, considering current overall conditions in the US (availability of guns, mental illness, repressed resentments, etc).
Pragmatism before doctrine.
Did I say turn the US into a Wild West? I'm saying that we should look at ways to turn soft targets for these nuts into question marks. So if they think there are multiple employees walking around in the building with concealed firearms do you think they may reconsider their plan?
This is funny and very American. Your guns agains tanks, jet fighters etc. Ya, that's going to work. At best you will be holed up like in Waco, Texas...eventually....
Also this attack on Liberals, as if they are the only ones for saner gun laws. I'm sure there are many people from all political stripes that favour gun control.
The Taliban seems to have held their own against two world superpowers. Like the other amendments the purpose of the 2nd is to keep government in check.
Why does our country have so much gun violence when other countries don't.
