Nope. Haven't made that claim in this thread.
How about any other thread? So..just to be clear, you don't believe that more guns lead to more gun crime?

I don't think you understand rights. Also, callign something 'regulatory' doesn't make it so.
You're confused.

My only original claim he questioned was that the majority of guns in Chicago come from outside Chicago
you can't purchase handguns in Indiana and bring them into Illinois without going thru an FFL licensed dealer. this includes private sales.

Who decides if someone is mentally sound?
Professionals? Courts? Doctors? Lets not pretend this would be a routine measure.
How long will they have to give up their guns?
immediately upon court order?
Will there be an appeals process?
i wouldnt support something without clear limits.. very temporary
How do you ensure someone is telling the truth about their mental frame of mind?
best professional judgement. we wouldnt win them all
If I go in knowing this person is going to have the ability to take my right to own a gun, why would I tell him about my depression? How do you stop this from happening?
Because it's temporary unless you need help? Idk really. Why would a criminal confess to a crime? They do it regularly.

Thats the point. It can't be equated with a gun. You tried to imply if you can blame a computer program for violence, you must also blame the gun.
No I implied that you can’t excuse guns on the grounds that they are inanimate objects and then turn around and blame another inanimate object, a video game. It has to do with the logic. I’m not saying that one or the other cannot be responsible for violence for different reasons. It’s just that the “ inanimate object” logic is often faulty

Defensive use of guns by crime victims is a common occurrence, although the exact number remains disputed (Cook and Ludwig, 1996; Kleck, 2001a). Almost all national survey estimates indicate that defensive gun uses by victims are at least as common as offensive uses by criminals, with estimates of annual uses ranging from about 500,000 to more than 3 million (Kleck, 2001a), in the context of about 300,000 violent crimes involving firearms in 2008 (BJS, 2010).
Predictable and ignorant, you are perfect for gun-control advocacy.

You have the right to keep and bear arms. As a licensed individual you have the privilege to conceal a weapon. The government can specify the when, where, and the manner in which you may do so.

Define mental illness. And list all of them.

Ah, so you don't understand the meaning of 'regulatory'.

Didn't answer his question and demonstrated again you don't understand regulatory.
quote:

Yes you would. You don't undertand regulatory. You don't understand due process. You don't understand rights. You don't understand how the term "mental illness" will be abused. Nothing suggest you understand how to draw limits, how to define them, how to enforce them.
quote:

Yes, let's trust their "professional" judgment, where they will then be at risk of being sued or charged with accessory to murder (according to TJ standards) if someone is cleared but goes on to do something violent. I'm sure that will never be abused by these "professionals". Nope. Never. Gun owners would lose each and every time but you're OK with that.

Understatement.

Yeah, and they are never coerced or manipulated when this happens, right? Gosh now that I think about it, there's no evidence that LE is plagued with confirmation bias and incorrectly determining when people are telling lies, who is guilty, who is innocent. Same for prosecutors. No misconduct with them, nah, never happens. But you seem to think similar abuses wouldn't happen with your suggestion, whether it be through ideology, fear of litigation, or another mechanism. But sure, let's start usurping and revoking rights.
Under your standards, a "professional" like a supervisor of elections could move to have your voting rights removed for the next election due to your demonstrated inability to think critically. That would be wonderful wouldn't it? Wouldn't you like to live under those rules? Go into an election planning to vote to legalize weed and good ole Jeff Sessions gets a report that you are not making good decisions. And there you go, say goodbye to voting. Of course that may anger you, so to protect society we're going to have to violate your 4th amendment rights and make sure there's nothing dangerous or dumbing in your house. Is that a propaganda piece on the legalization of drugs? Tisk tisk...very bad. We can't have such nonsense. Clearly you mean to violate our laws and heap chaos and destruction upon society. This will not stand. Hand over your knives, and your guns, and your car keys. You are too dangerous. Surrender your bank account as well - you might start purchasing drugs. But don't worry, it's only regulatory. We'll give it all back, just sit tight for a while.

No. My point was you can't equate an inanimate object like a gun in which it's use is neutral and an inanimate object like a video game that has it's violent format as part of it's use.

That is very emotional of you. Government is the most risk-averse thing on this planet. They couldn't restrict a person from owning a gun without going through the courts. They damn sure aren't going to risk violating your rights if they are not confident that the facts will convince a judge.
We can barely get them to fine a farmer for pumping animal shite into a stream.. and the stakes are much higher when we are talking about a persons 2A right.
