Calling something "unconstitutional" means absolutely nothing.

Not Bill of Privilegesi don't really see the logic thereCool, but I think if one of the amendments in the Bill Of Rights is taken away, it reflects that the government does not view them as rights anymore and believes they are privileges instead. I for one like the sound of "right to free speech" as opposed to "privilege of speech". The removal of one invalidates the resti agree, that's why amendment 2 is the only one i have a serious problem withThey did pretty well if you ask me. They didn't cover everything, but I'm glad what they did cover is law.Rights are not something that can be amended.

At least not in this country. Background checks are cool. They make sense, but I believe the Constitution and Bill of Rights the most absolute law of the land and should not be violated.the fact that the constitution has been amended so many times should suggest to you how fallible and subject to change it really is 3969
The Flood / Re: Is the right to arm oneself a basic human right?« on: March 01, 2018, 01:40:03 PM »I think banning a simple mechanical concept would be nigh impossible. Even regulating it is exceedingly difficult. You can actually easily manufacture a submachine gun, from materials you can buy at a hardware store (P.A. Luty). The law can only do so much to control what people do in their own homes.i already agreed that it's impossible, i'm just describing how things would be in my perfect world so when i tell you that there would still be millions of good people owning guns under stricter gun control policy and 2A repeal, you know it's coming from a person who would ultimately get rid of all guns if he had it his way in other words, i'm not allowing my personal bias against guns affect how i view guns in the real world we're never getting rid of guns, but that doesn't mean we can't limit public access to them and limiting public access doesn't necessarily mean giving criminals more power, it's quite the opposite 3970

i mean ultimately if i had a button that destroyed all guns and prevented anything similar from ever being created or used again, then i would press it instantly
in fact, i'd smash wayne lapierre's face against it that's my ideal, no guns whatsoever, fuck you never gonna happen though, so i have to try to discuss reality 3971
The Flood / Re: Is the right to arm oneself a basic human right?« on: March 01, 2018, 01:08:05 PM »okay, don't be fucking stupidSo you'd prefer rape and murder possibly with illegal projectile weapons so the perpetrators of such can't get their hands on them because they obey the law?still a better outcome than allowing any fucknut to carry a projectile weaponDefending yourself from those that are armed without being armed yourself almost certainly results in bodily harm or death.you are now talking about the right to defend yourself, which is a different subjectno, in the same way that the right to drive an automobile is not a basic human rightSo if I'm a caveman and a rival tribe has sharp rocks and is regularly raping and killing people from my tribe, I can't get my own sharp rock and defend myself and my family because my tribal leaders say so? I specifically mean the ability to arm oneself regardless of what age or state of technology. my entire thesis (that i've stated repeatedly) is that owning guns is like driving cars, in that it's a privilege, not a right that means you can still easily get your hands on weapons if you've jumped through the necessary hoops like a responsible adult, it's just not your godgiven right in the same exact way that driving isn't your god given right and since millions of people still drive, millions of people would still own guns just because something isn't a basic human right doesn't mean it's banned completely 3972

No background checks, no test. Just pay cash, and you own a fucking AR-15 or AK47 or hell even a .22 Glock, illegally, and its incredibly easy to do if you have no guilty conscience or morals )The majority of these young shooters don't strike me as resourceful enough to do this. the option to purchase illegal weapons on the black market will always be there regardless of what solutions we implement obviously 3982
