53. Do you support people owning cars without licensing or insuring them?

Or should only the "rich" own cars?

Keep in mind at least car ownership is more than just a hobby.

If you want sympathy for your hobby, it's in the dictionary...

Just sayin'

Sorry JanMichael May 2014 #20

Must be nice to be rich Taitertots May 2014 #21

It is! JanMichael May 2014 #24

But you support taxes out "wazzoo", you must be rich to be able to afford it Taitertots May 2014 #32

so what JanMichael May 2014 #34

Yep, Taxes as a means of prohibition for anyone but the rich Taitertots May 2014 #42

Spoken like someone who doesn't rely on hunting for basic survival joeglow3 May 2014 #68

I suggest you re-read your post joeglow3 May 2014 #40

Yeah, you are in the large crowd of.....two. JanMichael May 2014 #45

Why the need to resort to personal insults? joeglow3 May 2014 #51

not hardly, but nice try JanMichael May 2014 #57

They already are taxed Duckhunter935 May 2014 #71

If you can't afford them, don't own them Major Nikon May 2014 #41

At least one person is honest enough to admit that they support firearms for only rich people Taitertots May 2014 #47

Do you support people owning cars without licensing or insuring them? Major Nikon May 2014 #53

Make an OP about those laws (PM me for notification) and we can discuss it Taitertots May 2014 #58

I asked you a reasonable and relevant question that only required a yes or no answer Major Nikon May 2014 #65

If you want to discuss an unrelated issue (cars), create a thread and we can discuss it Taitertots May 2014 #66

You mean like taxes? Major Nikon May 2014 #69

If you want to discuss taxes on automobile ownership, then create a thread about it, Taitertots May 2014 #72

I'll ask a question not so easily dodged then Major Nikon May 2014 #74

You know how poor people can avoid the OP's proposed taxes on guns? baldguy May 2014 #43

Then instead of taxes, how about universal background checks and some form of registration? nomorenomore08 May 2014 #44

There's nothing wrong with owning guns. JohnnyRingo May 2014 #22

Thank you JanMichael May 2014 #30

I target shoot and hunt. I have a 12 & 16 ga. shotgun, a 22 rifle, 22 revolver, 44 mag. revolver, doc03 May 2014 #23

Thank you JanMichael May 2014 #28

The black powder revolver is maybe 20 years old, they still make them doc03 May 2014 #37

I knew about replicas JanMichael May 2014 #59

You have no "need" for any of those. When we base policy on "need" all of them would be prohibited Taitertots May 2014 #38

so. From my posts, you have gleaned that I am "Rich." and from this poster JanMichael May 2014 #49

Why do you need a 30-round magazine? Why do you need to carry a gun everywhere? nomorenomore08 May 2014 #50

Why do you need to worship freely? Speak without censorship? Restrict giving quarter to soldiers Taitertots May 2014 #54

So you're opposed to all gun-control measures whatsoever? nomorenomore08 May 2014 #56

Your post is non-sense, not even worthy of a response. Taitertots May 2014 #61

You're the one arguing against even the mildest of restrictions. nomorenomore08 May 2014 #62

"Mildest restrictions"? Based on? Taitertots May 2014 #63

Okay, maybe I've assumed too much. In that case I apologize. nomorenomore08 May 2014 #64

Why so many different types, if you don't mind me asking? Are you a collector? nomorenomore08 May 2014 #48

Dick Van Dyke's wife kept her husband's .22 ammunition in her jewelry box. Kablooie May 2014 #25

I wish that most gun owners were like you mwrguy May 2014 #27

I really do not see where there should be such a big deal with registering guns. Thinkingabout May 2014 #36

Thank you JanMichael May 2014 #46

I'm wondering the same thing... n/t nomorenomore08 May 2014 #52

We should register people diagnosed with mental illnesses. VScott May 2014 #75
