You can't watch more than 1 TV at a time (Elvis Presley excluded). Get rid of your extra TV, you contributor to global warming, you.

You don't get to tell people what they can have or how they can live their life. I find it comical that typically the same people that champion "rights for all" are the first to try to take away the rights of others that they don't like. Smoking, guns, vehicles with low fuel mileage, etc.

Amen! It's nobody's business how many guns I own, or don't own. Nor am I interested in having my rights or the rights of other American citizens, because of the dregs in society that cause all of the problems, or some idiot carelessly shoots himself!

(4) NO private unregulated transfer of possession of any guns, including within families, without the above processes …give up the NFA and give us national reciprocity and maybe we can compromise on this. Not however as current law stands in many states. Many firearms are not dealer transferable here in MA.

(5) Maximum of five shot capacity magazines in privately owned guns … so what do you do with the MILLIONS of current magazines? Confiscate them? Confiscate M1 garands? So you do want to take our guns?
(6) ALL guns kept unloaded in gun safe, trigger locked, with ammo stored separately under lock and key …
What good is a home defense gun with that many barriers to use? It is good sense to lock up firearms. Fortunately I keep my front door locked.
Those would be a start ...
lol

Cite your source for that claim. Ideally something more credible than Ammosexuals-unite.com.

Haha, you didn't come here to debate.

Exactly. This type of person will not stop until the 2nd amendment is repealed and guns are confiscated. Anything short of that and they're not happy. I apologize that people have rights and that the government must respect those rights.

While I know nothing about this specific scenario I do know governors do not control the purse.

And since "Gun laws don't work," then just abolish all gun laws …

And since a determined murderer will use a baseball bat or a knitting needle, there should be NO restrictions on any guns at all …

If a twelve year old wants to carry a MAC-10 to school in his backpack, why not … ???
