The pro America Democrat party died with JFK. They’re nothing more than tool for international communism. Bought and paid for.

I wouldn't say they want to take guns away because of the 2nd Amendment, but they want to regulated them so that mentally unbalanced people, angry young men who are killing people in these mass shootings of late will not be able to purchase them. Anything wrong with that?

Slimone, your comments warrant a VERY, VERY interesting conversation. Would you say that people with mental health problems don't have rights to self-defense? I'm on the fence about this myself, but I'm wondering what are your thoughts on this interesting subject.

EDIT: For example, what is the definition of "mentally unbalanced"?

reply

What I mean by mentally unbalanced covers a lot of circumstances. A person could have bee abused as a child or was bullied, any number of things that could have given him a different outlook on life that influenced his anger, resentment and hostility. If an animal like a dog is mistreated it might bite you for instance. Perhaps I should have written mentally disturbed.

You are implying that the right to self-defense is a right to buy something. Those two things are independent of each other. The 2nd amendment merely stops the government from taking away a gun you already own. The 2nd amendment neither enables or prevents the government from selling you something. That decision is completely up to the government.

For example, let's say a federal regulation was put in place so that anyone with any criminal background could not purchase a gun. Then let's say that person used a 3d printer to create one (within specifications of legal firearms). The government would not be able to take that weapon away because of the 2nd amendment.

Ahh yes. Don't talk about the current state of the economy caused by Trump's trade war. Don't talk about farmers turning against him or anything like that. Let's not talk about the mass murders every weekend. Let's certainly not talk about Trump's monstrous mishap in SharpieGate. Let's not even talk about how the majority of people agree with some sort of increased gun regulation. Nah. Nah. Let's talk about how silly democrats are for wanting to regulate guns... which most people agree with.

This thread is NOT anti-gun control. This thread IS about the idiocy surrounding the Democratic candidate's lack of firearm knowledge, yet wanting to ban them.

"Don't talk about the current state of the economy caused by Trump's trade war. Don't talk about farmers turning against him or anything like that...Let's certainly not talk about Trump's monstrous mishap in SharpieGate."
Well, we CAN talk about those things, but they're red herrings in the context of this thread.

So China should just be allowed to go unchecked?
