While I value your input....I don't see your opinions making it out of a legislative committee. Ya dig? What do you think could actually pass in 2016?

A Realistic Gun Policy Proposal [View all] Kang Colby Jun 2016 OP

One Gun - One Bullet RobertEarl Jun 2016 #1

Yeah, right. n/t Kang Colby Jun 2016 #2

+1. Much better idea. Gunners can still stroke their weapons, hunt, target shoot, etc. Hoyt Jun 2016 #3

LOL... Kang Colby Jun 2016 #7

Those are the guns the 2nd Amendment was written for. baldguy Jun 2016 #9

A standard for one is the standard for the rest... pipoman Jun 2016 #14

Lol Duckhunter935 Jun 2016 #22

We've tried it your way. It's been a spectacular, murderous, bloody failure. baldguy Jun 2016 #33

It's not my way, it's our way....like it or not pipoman Jun 2016 #37

What I'm suggesting is that rights are not absolute. baldguy Jun 2016 #42

Yeah, and you know that there is a complete volume of "limits" already in place pipoman Jun 2016 #43

No limits, lol Duckhunter935 Jun 2016 #47

All of this 'greater good' nonsense is emotional fluff... TipTok Jun 2016 #49

Right, they're so responsible that America has 38,000 gun deaths each year. baldguy Jun 2016 #52

10s of millions of gun owners... TipTok Jun 2016 #54

Last I heard 33k was the number being used. And of course, 2/3rds of those are suicides. Waldorf Jun 2016 #57

Like that makes a difference. Just proves that gun owners are not, in fact, responsible. baldguy Jun 2016 #60

What do you think about the proposal in the OP? n/t Kang Colby Jun 2016 #56

And this is why no progress gets made. Travis_0004 Jun 2016 #10

So true, how long before the sexual insults? Duckhunter935 Jun 2016 #12

Very soon Travis_0004 Jun 2016 #16

Becuse some reject reason RobertEarl Jun 2016 #18

My gun range is unattended, on 500 acres in the middle of nowhere Travis_0004 Jun 2016 #28

I already keep mine locked up at the range house. oneshooter Jun 2016 #63

Id love to see the day you make a coherent and rational argument. cleanhippie Jun 2016 #19

Would require you were able to read, no? RobertEarl Jun 2016 #24

Oh, I can read. I can read the incoherent, nonsensical drivel, as well as the childish insults. cleanhippie Jun 2016 #26

You can read your own posts? RobertEarl Jun 2016 #27

QED cleanhippie Jun 2016 #62

You are correct, by that time they will only be in museums. We will have phasers instead. Waldorf Jun 2016 #53

Who will make sure all guns smuggled across our open borders... cherokeeprogressive Jun 2016 #61

IBTL pipoman Jun 2016 #4

Probably so Duckhunter935 Jun 2016 #6

He's toast pipoman Jun 2016 #8

"Do not think about arguing" pintobean Jun 2016 #30

Yep, an angry one too Duckhunter935 Jun 2016 #34

Maybe so...Duckhunter. Kang Colby Jun 2016 #40

At least you tried Duckhunter935 Jun 2016 #41

If it weren't for the good folks in GC&RKBA...I wouldn't bother. Kang Colby Jun 2016 #44

A great group Duckhunter935 Jun 2016 #50

The best I ever did see. Kang Colby Jun 2016 #55

It wouldn't be mandatory. Kang Colby Jun 2016 #15

I agree, and there should be immunity from civil or criminal pipoman Jun 2016 #31

Concur. Kang Colby Jun 2016 #36

Like it Duckhunter935 Jun 2016 #5

I wouldn't mind having a buyer Kang Colby Jun 2016 #11

Just sell through an FFL, if you really care about ensuring your guns don't go to Hoyt Jun 2016 #13

Most all of the spree killers did just that Duckhunter935 Jun 2016 #17

Yep they were all legal RobertEarl Jun 2016 #21

I would rather give people a self serve option. Kang Colby Jun 2016 #20

Problem is, you don't have the accountability of an FFL, record keeping system, and any dick could Hoyt Jun 2016 #29

Hoyt, all of what you said is basically an opinion. Kang Colby Jun 2016 #38

Don't care about 2016, there's always next year. In the meantime, let's expose gunners for what Hoyt Jun 2016 #58

So rather than improve the system, you want to make gun owners look bad? Kang Colby Jun 2016 #59

I'd be down with that. linuxman Jun 2016 #23

No issue with that. n/t Kang Colby Jun 2016 #25

Agreed Duckhunter935 Jun 2016 #35

My solution. Sensible, I think. Shemp Howard Jun 2016 #32

That will likely never become federal legislation. Kang Colby Jun 2016 #39

A ban not linked to any guarantee of rights, that would be unrealistic. (nt) Shemp Howard Jun 2016 #46

In all due respect, I politely disagree. Kang Colby Jun 2016 #51

Harsher penalties and stricter enforcement of 'straw purchases' Heeeeers Johnny Jun 2016 #45

I agree with most of that. Kang Colby Jun 2016 #48
