It is not possible for one to justify their support of firearm-related restriction on the basis of so-called "public safety" while simultaneously supporting those who have proven that they either cannot, or simply will not, abide by the rules of society. The two are mutually exclusive to one another.
So called strawman purchases are not more than ten percent of the problem, there is a huge blackmarket in stolen firearms, which is where most criminals get their guns. Strawman purchases are already illegal in most states. It's seems your goal is to punish people before a crime is committed.
The governments have a record. Governments. Do you mean the Luxembourg government? Lefties are afraid of guns. It is no more complicated than that. It isn't a giant conspiracy. Children and parents see other children in schools hosed down with bullets and they want it to stop. They see a bunch of people hosed down in a concert in Vegas and they want it to stop. They see young people hosed down in a night club and they want it to stop. Is that really too complicated for you to understand?
Not the way I remember it. Uncle Sam trained me to kill commies. Then they sent me to some exotic land and some commie was trying to kill me so my response was to kill him before he killed me. BTW: It was Democrats who sent me there...but they backstabbed the American soldier once they were on the battlefield.
Used to think that the RW claims that gun grabbing is so they can take over and control more easily were conspiracy theories. I was wrong. That's exactly why they want to disarm the citizenry. They are right up to the line on what they can do to citizens without armed revolts, and they want to go far past that line.
fine. life no parole. solved your recidivism problem there. and joe arpaio runs it. white bread and bologna... yum!
so be it. do you want public safety or do you not? also once we kick out the illegals who cost us $225b+ per year, plenty of money left for the prisons.
i am a 125 lb. woman. basic laws of physics predict the likelihood of me fending off a 250 lb. rapist on my own are remote. i am not a coward for equipping myself with the tools amd skills to defend my body. i will not be a victim and i don’t care what you or anyone have to say about it.
Perfectly fine for you to be that afraid. As long as you're ok with the rapist also having good access to guns.
women are raped every day by knuckle dragging thugs you people like to let out of prison and illegal aliens you welcome with open arms. i’m keeping my guns, thank you.
If that was anything more than your orgasmic fantasy, why would the hard right want to arm everyone and then be faced by someone who could shoot back? If the hard right wanted to kill people with impunity, they already have their guns, they would want everyone else to be disarmed. Error: narrative fail...rebooting....
You will never, ever be able to prevent someone willing to rape from acquiring a gun. Not on this planet.
Firearm-related restrictions have failed to keep firearms out of the hands of any individuals who should not have access to them.
I'm glad to live in a state that continues to limit access to weapons in civilian hands. One reason newly elected Gavin Newsom won so easily was his long-term resistance to the NRA. Newsom has already increased funding for gun confiscation from mentally ill and felons and has urged the state legislature to pass a law governor Brown vetoed last year. "California bill would limit number of guns people can buy to one per month as state's new governor takes swipe at gun lobby" https://www.cnbc.com/2019/01/07/bil...ns-californians-can-buy-to-one-per-month.html
your laws didn’t stop the muslim terrorists from butchering those innocents in san crapadino... and they don’t stop LA’s 50,000 gang bangers from cappin each other 3 a week...
I said they're suicidal, they want to be killed, though most don't really think the matter through that much and will get away if they can. And many more are Rambo fantasists, who think they'll just pull out their guns and save everyone.
But not very concerned about guns in the hands of illegals. So, how is one gun a month suppose to stop anything? Is it suppose to stop gun trafficking? You should spend more time keeping track of your own Democratic legislators. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/03/26/leland-yee-gun-traffickin_n_5038152.html
Link? Lefties always seem to have the ability to read minds and know exactly how their political opponents feel and think. They should use that ability to stop criminals before they commit a crime.
