YES!

[graham4anything]

I don't post on the pro-gun, pro-NRA section
but I saw a question

my response is in the title.

100%.

edit to add, it goes without saying On duty police, military, etc., are exempt from this confiscation. LOL also the national guard and governmental workers(Secret Service)

[NYC_SKP]

1. Cops and the military too?

Or just the common citizens?

[graham4anything]

3. private citizens. 100% grab their guns and bullets. no one needs a bullet

no legislation will change anything big time
but ONE new scotus will lead to reinterpretation to end this insanity.

then ta ta for all bullets.

Hobbyists can pack stamps.

[WilliamPitt]

2. Why do I look?

I always regret it.

[Upton]

4. Bloomberg's bodyguards too?

[sarisataka]

17. Let's run down the approved list...

Police, check. Military, check. Government, check. MAIG members until they give alcohol to a 20 year old, threaten them at gun point and shoot up the place (like that would happen ), check. Bodyguards, nope not on the list.

Perhaps this is why Bloomie wants police protection for life, he plans on disarming his paid bodyguards so he needs government paid protection.

[NYC_SKP]

27. Politicians with secret service or equivalent. No problemo.

The idea of completely and utterly and selectively disarming all citizens is the most stupid thing to come down the pike since the New Pearl Harbor, or PNAC.

Worse, actually.

5. If a student nibbles a graham cracker into the shape of a gun

should he be suspended?

YES!

[ZombieHorde]

6. Is this to my poll about firearm confiscation?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1172119394

[graham4anything]

7. Yup. Feel free to add a YES vote (the first) as there are the 18 who said no way.

time for playing nice when 35 people are dying a day is over with regard to the issue.

[ZombieHorde]

9. Thanks for the phantom vote.

I can't vote for you, but I will try to keep it in mind when I view the results.

[marcusc81]

13. True indeed

[sarisataka]

16. I thought you previously stated

Guns in the home are OK. Before your apparent self-evident. Now no guns? Not even to use as a club?

[graham4anything]

20. The streets could easily be rid of 100% of gun deaths, however,

a rethinking means that house guns would be needed to go too, after the streets are swept clean like in the wild wild west when Sheriff law actually made the streets safe.

Though first the street, it's easier to monitor.But what stops someone in a house from shooting into the street.

Sorry, but bullets would all need to go because it makes it too easy to kill.

A disfunctional gun that don't shoot can be hung on the walls

Wouldn't someone who owns a big ranch, let's say, like the comfort of knowing there are zero firearms in the vicinity so they have nothing to worry about?

after all, a gun in the hands of a private person, never saved anyone anyhow from any of the normal NRA soundbyte boogiemen.

[sarisataka]

23. So to continue your rethinking

will we adopt old west justice techniques as well; a fair trial before the hanging? Unless everyone present knows the accused is guilty so there is no need to bother the judge...

after all, a gun in the hands of a private person, never saved anyone anyhow from any of the normal NRA soundbyte boogiemen.

please add your opinion, there or here

25. Ben Franklin-an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

With 201? reinterpretation, then the 201? law will deal with the whatifs after that.
NO vigilante justice.

We have evolved from the wild wild west the tea party would like to go back to, however,
they seemed to not know the actuality of it legally, just the movie version soundbyte.

[sarisataka]

26. Circular much?

after the streets are swept clean like in the wild wild west when Sheriff law actually made the streets safe.

We have evolved from the wild wild west the tea party would like to go back to

No need for vigilante justice- the Earps and Doc Holiday were all duly deputized, they and Jack McCall were all acquitted though McCall was a private citizen...
edit--> McCall was acquitted in his first trial but didn't fair as well in the second.

[slackmaster]

8. If you don't trust people who aren't government employees with firearms, please explain why...

...you trust government employees.

Are they not made of the same flesh and blood as the rest of us?

[graham4anything]

11. Because Superman don't exist.

[slackmaster]

12. Your response makes no logical sense. You can't articulate a meaningful answer to my question.

No surprise here.

[graham4anything]

14. I don't argue with circular NRA arguments.I said my piece in post #1. and

If Zimmerman were packing a ping pong ball, Mr. Martin would still be alive.
Zimmerman was the crossing the line in the sand moment.
If the NRA had its way, 320 million zimmermans would be there.

Better just to grab all private guns, then monitor for anyone who is in the street with one.
Bullet sniffing dogs or cats.

100% of all private ciitzens with gun crime can be prevented in the streets or accessed from the streets.

Vast majority of street crimnals will voluntarily sell them in during say a 21 day amnesty buy back.(I would be 95%).

[NYC_SKP]

18. ..."bullet sniffing dogs or cats"...

YES!

CATS!

Thanks for making my day!

[slackmaster]

22. I think loony-sniffing dogs or cats would do a better job of protecting public safety

[calimary]

31. LOVE your sig line!

[LuvNewcastle]

15. Maybe they should send you out to confiscate them.

[Common Sense Party]

19. So you don't post in the gungeon--the only place for BOTH SIDES of the gun control debate--but you

still look there, read polls, and feel your opinion is so important you have to post about it here in a thread of your own?

Why wouldn't you just vote in the poll?

[graham4anything]

21. Your title is not correct, though technically you might think so

When I hit new posts, all posts show up as I don't believe in ignore.

[Common Sense Party]

28. I have no idea what you're trying to say.

I doubt you do, either, but that's for you to decide.

[tritsofme]

24. Is this poster part of some inside joke I wasn't included on?

I just can't believe it is for real.

[Common Sense Party]

29. I think it's a big joke.

70% of what he/she posts makes little to no sense to me at all. A long running parody...of what, I'm not sure.

[graham4anything]

30. You Gotta Believe- Tug McGraw, 1973 NY Mets.

I remember a NYC joke-
Back in 1973 Tug McGraw said "You Gotta Believe" (and I did.)The NY Mets had one of the biggest come from behind upsets ever.

Years later, Tug was talking to his son, (liberal)Country Singer Tim McGraw and
Tug again said "You gotta believe"
and Tim said to Tug, "Well Dad, I have Faith".
Rest in peace Tug.
It's gonna be a long time before I believe in the Mets thanks to Bernie Madoff screwing the Mets owners.

as to the subject matter,
Should guns be banned from private citizens?
Damn right I gotta believe the 2nd will one day be reinterpreted as it has been so many times before, this time without the 5 bad ones, the true interpretation will happen.
Sometimes Sequels can be better than the original. Happens only once in a Blue Moon, but it does happen. It will with the 2nd.
After all, what was Heller but a reinterpretation.


So, you gotta believe. I do.

Once the 2nd is reinterpreted after HRC takes office, perhaps, in such a stroke of irony,
when President Obama is nominated for the US SUpreme Court and he replaces a retiring
Scalia or Thomas, and writes the majority ruling, then everything and anything will be possible for a civilized society.
Because, well, it goes without saying

A private citizen under the 2nd today could claim they need a shoulder to air missile, and then what? Should everyone have their own bunker busting bombs?

You gotta believe, they can't and a new court will rule without parsing just what the 2nd means.

Then one can classify the NRA as a terror org.(actually under the war on terrror, I don't see why that couldn't happen already) and have their assets frozen.
After which anyone who donates to a terror org., well, one cannot donate to a terror org, can they?
No funds, no salary for Wayne.
Do you think he will work for free? Nobody works for free.

Reinterpret and out.

BTW, don't forget to watch the season finale of "The Good Wife" (a tv show that tapes in NYC and puts 100s and 100s of union workers to work.)
Mike Bloomberg is playing himself on the episode of the show, which is an hour long show, starring Julianne Marguiles and Josh Charles and wellness is the word of the day.
