How is the constitution going to stop me? Remember, it is not the chains on me.
It is the chains place on the government and the consequences for by-passing the Constitution and our individual rights to liberty.

The fact a law that by-passes the constitution, is grounds for the use of the 2nd amendment to correct it.

There is not, nor will there ever be, a law which will prevent mass murder by firearms.

Law-makers are hell-bent on creating laws which will prevent law-abiding citizens from purchasing weaponry to defend itself from a tyrannical government.

And, the current government is becoming ever more tyrannical.

Where is the law requiring forks to be reduced from four tines to one tine? There! That will certainly put an end to obesity in America, Ms. Michelle. Won't it?

When you got your CCW did you need to tell what you were carrying? I didn't and am not restricted to any one gun. I could surrender an old throwaway I keep and just say its my carry piece.

A shooting death can be anything.. It might be an accident, it might be a suicide, it might be a wacko illegal shooter, it might be a cop on active duty, or a cop off active duty, it might be a civilian defending his family, or it might be a gang banger shooting someone in a drug deal, or for nothing at all.

All these stats are dumped into one pot like a raffle.......
The cop who issued my first permit in Mass blew out his own brains with his side arm... How is this my fault? He was a High and N Mighty 'trained' Chief of Police......


I had years more experience with guns than he did by the time i was 23 years old.... I have been a target shooter / hunter since i was 6... And before that Dad trained me.

You, nor the Govt will ever take any of my guns.... Anyone who tries will be arrested and charged with treason. I will press all the charges I can.

Perhaps you should study the law..... After the Declaration of Independence the Cons should apply. next perhaps the 25,000 pages of Mass gun law which will prove there is so much paper tiger law that no one understands what it all is...

Like i said if you don't like it it's just too bad.

No!

When I purchase guns, they take the serial number and my personal info, and store it in a database, so the info about my guns are already "registered" (stored) in some database, and it does not bother me. They also took my fingerprints when I got my carry licence, and it did not bother me, or make me feel like a criminal.
Nor me. So what's your point? I simply answered another poster's question. Don't try to make something out of nothing.

Murder is against the law in every state of the nation.

In fact I had tried to create a post on 'We the People' would have to deal with the ugly fact of insanity, which is exactly what the problem is.

A mod shut down the thread to 'work' on it, and later it was reopened, but was no longer current. Some threads don't get a very long life because the topic isn't exciting..

Guns are emotional here on CD, insanity is pretty standard.

I am going to rep you for saying so...

What part of the constitution has the government bypassed,

So in your opinion any disagreement with your elected officials gives you the right to take independent physical action with your gun.

4th Amendment doesn't apply in California? Guess that comes as no surprise.

Nope! Can be any one of several and they don't know what I have.
