You are aware that Columbine happened while the AWB was in effect, right?

8. Our party should learn from this.
Pushing gun control legislation costs our party votes and contradicts the Constitution that we hold dear.

We need to remove gun control from our agenda!

21. So why don't you stay in Canada
where you'll be safe from bullet hoses? You're just another non-citizen chiming in on American affairs. You worry about your country, and we'll worry about ours.

Edited on Sun Sep-12-04 11:15 PM by nadinbrzezinski
by ordering Assault Weapons of their own, and grieving for officer's deaths, increased that is

Oh and I am sure our terrorists will also celebrate, and i mean both internal and external

16. Maybe we should use all this confusion
about machine guns being back on the streets to try and get the NFA repealed.

23. Repealed? Why? It was struck down as Unconstitutional...
Edited on Mon Sep-13-04 12:10 AM by DoNotRefill
in the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals on Interstate Commerce Clause grounds in U.S. v. Stewart. It's as dead as last year's thanksgiving turkey. It's just a matter of time before ATF figures it out, prolly as a result of a writ of mandamus.


As a jon Stewart-esque aside, I must say "DAMN THOSE ACTIVIST JUDGES!!! DAMN THEM!!!!"

25. Hmm, good point.
Maybe we should concentrate on any parts of the GCA that weren't just for amending the NFA and anything that's left over from the Federal Firearms Act that the GCA didn't repeal. Is that old 'no mailing concealable firearms' law still in effect or did the GCA repeal it?

35. Really funny how your esteem for the Ninth Circuit skyrockets or craters
depending on whether or not the decision is pro or anti-gun.

Personally, I have no opinion about the Stewart decision. Federalism is an extremely murky area of the law, with precedents pointed every which-a-way. Unlike Second Amendment law, which is plain as a pikestaff, all the precedents in agreement.

24. Semiautomatic Assault Weapon Update
Edited on Mon Sep-13-04 12:24 AM by MrSandman
By statute, the prohibitions relating to semiautomatic assault weapons and large capacity ammunition feeding devices expired on September 13, 2004. As a result, certain sections of the Gun Control Act, 18 U.S.C. Chapter 44, and its implementing regulations, 27 CFR Part 478, are no longer in effect.

Sheese man, what if people thought you should be banned because of you're recommendation of advocating violating members Constitutional rights.

What gives? :shrug:

... admitting you're not in support of citizens rights. So now you start accusing contributing members of being right-winged.

rights that don't exist. Never did, and never will, unless the right wingers can pack the Supreme Court with a few more Scalias and Pickerings.
