    Fact. The second amendment states no age restriction. Despite what gun grabbers might think.

    Factually incorrect. The way of thinking demonstrated above is that those who wish to not only possess weapons, but also use them in what is ultimately a self destructive manner, should be allowed to engage in such a course of behavior so that they may weather the consequences for themselves.

    I was only asking you for your opinion not asking you to make a Supreme Court ruling.

    Doesn’t matter. The BoR’s are a limit on all governments. What we are seeing is states allowed to get away with superficial infringements so to avoid a constitutional admending of 2A. The Founders considered gun rights above government privilege, state or federal. This is why state laws are challenged before the SCOTUS.

    Defending the cause of liberty is not self destructive.

    I am a libertarian. I find the federal war on drugs-especially drugs produced within our national borders to violate the tenth amendment. I think most abortions should be legal-if someone's God disapproves, that God will have plenty of chances to mete out his displeasure on those who perform abortions. Gambling is legal and should be. And I think sex between two consenting competent adults is not a something any government should have jurisdiction over.

    If there is a link you can find to that video you should post it. I looked a while back and couldn’t find it anywhere.

    Regardless of your stance on GC that was hilarious and frightening at the same time.

    So then it would be OK to leave some in place? So you are OK with some gun regulation, some gun control?

    Given your history of posts, your 'Merica' posts certainly reinforce your trolling intentions.

    Sure now. You are posting from an honest perspective with no underlying attempt at clever gaming, eh?

    The OP was conceived to game and flame bait. That is my view point.

    Well, lets see where your strawmen lead us. Like how the 2A isn't about "guns", its about arms and a means to protect yourself with.

    Since small children are taught martial arts with only the permission of their parents, I can see where you don't understand what the second amendment entails. Small children wouldn't be able to purchase the gun, nor the ammo needed to work it properly without some help from an adult. And since it would be up to the parents to decide if they could get a gun, it would also fall on the parents to train the kids how to use the gun for proper use. Tell you this, bet the bully "epidemic" would go away in a hurry if the small weak kids were packing.
    The mentally ill as in what? Do you think all mentally ill people are violent? You obviously do since you lumped both them and violent felons in the same category. Violent criminals will get a gun no matter what laws you have in place, you know this right?
    Well, they should be allowed in the public areas. Privately owned places like planes and sporting events can bar weapons of any kind since its their right. The courts were only barred because of racist democrats scared of black people with guns.

    Right next to the part of "shall not be infringed".

    My kid can walk to the store and buy lots of things. Why should his right to bear arms be restricted?

    True there is nowhere in the constitution that says people with homicidial ideation should be barred from carrying guns.

    Private areas open to the public should not be exempt from the constitution. Can an airline deny a Christian because it is privately owned? Then it can not deny my right to bear arms.

    Shall not be infringed. Freedom baby

    He has his own money?

    Pretty sure everyone has had those thoughts. Its a matter of impulse control.

    I didn't say they should be exempt. They should actually be the spotlight of the constitutional rights. As for the airliners, yes. And yes they can bar your right the bear arms in their property.

    Yep, that's why civilians had canons back in the day to go along with their semi-automatics that people think didn't exist back then.

    Yes he has his own money. He also has rights.

    Yep. They have rights too.

    Let me know when a airline can deny a Christian boarding for being a Christian

    Nuclear arms for everyone

    How does he get money?

    When every the airline choses to do so. As we saw earlier in the year, United airlines had every right to kick a passenger off the plane because it was over booked. What makes you think they cant deny a Christian?

    To whomever can afford it and maintain it. Would keep the government more honest.

    Actually public areas can place restrictions on carrying firearms, let someone try walking into an office at 1475 W Cypress Creek Rd #301, Fort Lauderdale, FL with a firearm and watch what happens to them.
