It seems like you read something and the interpretation in your head got short circuited. I do have a lot of weapons. I also have one of the higher tolerances to stupid crap, so I've been told I've also been known to help about anyone at anytime for anything.

Please tell us one thing, one little tiny thing that will come from these new laws that will fix anything about a criminal shooting someone. This should be good....


Try not to use, maybe, might, could, perhaps...

I don't understand the gun nut objection here. Are you guys suggesting that if a man murders three people in cold blood with a 9 mm pistol, serves 15 years in prison and is then released, that it should be legal and easy for that person to buy ammunition for a firearm? It is already illegal for a violent felon to own a firearm in California, is it not? Do you guys object to that law as well?


And no, I am not afraid of firearms. I used to stand topside on the submarine with a firearm that was loaded and had a round in the chamber. I am qualified on the M16A3 fully automatic rifle as well (we had those on the boat and occasionally I would stand topside with one). You can know about guns and not be a gun nut. It's possible, trust me. This is NOT me in the picture, but this is a picture of a watch I have stood many, many times. (official US Navy photo hosted on wikipedia.)

No, I'm suggesting that this new law does nothing to prevent any crimes, because, now get this, sometimes criminals break the law.

It's just one more step in, death by a thousand cuts aimed at law abiding gun owners like me.

Ok, so then murder should not be illegal either.

Not from me. I'm a moderate. I would never buy a firearm because I have my hands and feet for self defense, but I can understand people doing it and I think people have an individual right to do it.


But a violent felon is NOT a responsible gun owner!!!! Come on, ysr_racer!!!

This law doesn't do anything to prevent you from buying ammunition, as long as you're not a felon. You just do an instant NICS background check just like you would to buy a firearm. I don't see the problem.

First of all, thank you for your honorable service to our country. It's because of men & women like you we are free to speak our minds (1st amendment).

Now I am going to exercise my 1st amendment, just because you were qualified with a M16 doesn't mean you understand the issues of gun control. You argued from a view point of a CRIMINAL who does not respect what the LAWS say anyway. In the meantime, you ignore the RIGHTS of MILLIONS Law-abiding citizens who buys ammo and guns.

Criminals are going to get guns & ammo from black market anyway. They are not going through the background checks or informing the LEO "Hey I am getting a gun!". This is a stupid law. Guns in the right hands protect lives. Police can not be anywhere to protect you.
