How are they going to get their freshly killed game back home? I'll bet Amtrak has even more stringent rules about that kind of luggage than they do guns! LOL

You can have the meat shipped to you. beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #22

OMG! leftofcool Nov 2015 #5

I am a little less worried bec Nov 2015 #6

And you know they are all unloaded how? leftofcool Nov 2015 #7

Well how many mass shootings bec Nov 2015 #8

No different than all aircraft now Duckhunter935 Nov 2015 #28

K & R for exposure. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #9

People have always been able to take their unloaded guns AllyCat Nov 2015 #11

No, they haven't. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #13

You are correct but another Hillary supporter centainly made it sound as if Bernie Sanders wanted to INdemo Nov 2015 #46

You could, then you couldn't. Right now, you still can't. nt msanthrope Nov 2015 #17

Just traveled by train in August. Yes, you can AllyCat Nov 2015 #25

Checked...in a train available for such, rifles? msanthrope Nov 2015 #52

We go to DC once or twice a year on Amtrak AllyCat Nov 2015 #55

Are anti-Bernie folks really outraged or are you being sarcastic? aikoaiko Nov 2015 #14

The former, it's the poutrage du jour. beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #16

"No incidents of note have happened." SunSeeker Nov 2015 #33

Yeah I'm sure they went to their checked luggage to retrieve their weapons aikoaiko Nov 2015 #42

You have access to your luggage on trains, unlike planes. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #44

Also, unlike planes, they don't xray checked luggage or screen carry on bags (except randomly). aikoaiko Nov 2015 #50

Wrong. Checked baggage, where guns go, AllyCat Nov 2015 #56

A lot of trains don't have separate baggage cars. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #57

Well there arent a hell of a lot of Hillary supporters that read Bernie Sanders supporters INdemo Nov 2015 #48

"What if ...somebody saw a gun case in the baggage and just took it" beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #15

Um....are you actually comparing the security available msanthrope Nov 2015 #19

Oh spare me. beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #20

There is nothing honest about Bernie's excuse for his guns on trains vote. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #24

LOL! Coming from you that's even more hillaryous. beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #26

People on trains have access to their luggage and aren't screened like at airports. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #27

"Hunters don't use trains." Link please. Tia! beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #29

The OP. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #31

That's a quote from one of the morons interviewed. Cite facts to back up your claim, tia! beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #32

I did. Calling them "morons" does not dispute their assertion. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #34

Where are the facts you cited? Please post them again. Thanks! beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #36

Hunters saying they don't use trains. See the OP article link. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #39

That's not how it works, you made the claim so you need to back it up with facts. beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #40

It's also, and likely primarily, okasha Nov 2015 #64

Moron hunters from Vermont? leftofcool Nov 2015 #58

Sure, anyone who makes that claim would have to be. beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #66

Oh you, silly! Don't you ever see deer carcases lashed to the front hood and roof of the train? NurseJackie Nov 2015 #45

How do you think hunters transport their meat when they fly? beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #47

Sure, why not? NurseJackie Nov 2015 #49

On a train, it's easy to turn an unloaded gun into a loaded gun. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #23

This is another excuse by Sanders to cover for him being in the control Thinkingabout Nov 2015 #21

Sheesh . . . you'd think they'd give him a better rating then. D-? Vinca Nov 2015 #35

All members of congress should have a F rating, he has been paying the NRA back for their $18,000 Thinkingabout Nov 2015 #51

If that's "payback," I'd love to see what the other Democrats are doing. I found some A's & B's. Vinca Nov 2015 #54

Why didn't they ask the NRA? BootinUp Nov 2015 #30

Neato! 99Forever Nov 2015 #37

So he's for gun control (except that he isn't), ucrdem Nov 2015 #38

Bernie never said he marched with MLK, he went to Washington to hear him speak. beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #41

If that is true, then why have we been hearing this daily? leftofcool Nov 2015 #59

Hearing what daily? The only one who said that is your associate, ask them. beam me up scottie Nov 2015 #65

Your OP is written in a way that would suggest Bernie Sanders wanted to INdemo Nov 2015 #43

LOL - yes, well Bernie comes up with lots of stuff.... MaggieD Nov 2015 #53

Why should trains have stricter gun rules than planes? NT Eric J in MN Nov 2015 #60

Because people on trains have access to checked bags MaggieD Nov 2015 #62

How cozy is Bernie with the NRA? Alfresco Nov 2015 #61

In 2012, the NRA gave Sanders a rating of 8 percent. Eric J in MN Nov 2015 #63

Just like on planes. Autumn Nov 2015 #67
