you really meant to say that criminals will use a weapon to commit a crime.
quote:that would be wrong, so there's that as well.
Gun regulations have already been determined by the Supreme Court as NOT being a violation of the 2nd, so there's that as well

Start up on 1934 NFA. Then 1968 gun control act then 1986 FOPA. SCOTUS merely said reasonable regulations such as the prohibiting felons from acquiring firearms as legitimate not requiring legal owners to prove anything which you obviously think. Suicides? Really? Try Japan. Criminals know the system and can game it. You are pushing regulations that will do nothing to stop them.
I'm a citizen. it's not my job to justify my use of my rights to any government official. It's their job to show if I'm not law abiding or not.

Quite overbroad

they have guns in the mid-east and there is lots of war there so obviously guns cause war..
I know... but to them it would make sense.

Gun homicides have been going down since the Brady Bill was passed. Go figure.
You do realize correlation does not equal causation, right?
quote:
Context In February 1994, the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act established a nationwide requirement that licensed firearms dealers observe a waiting period and initiate a background check for handgun sales. The effects of this act have not been analyzed.
Objective To determine whether implementation of the Brady Act was associated with reductions in homicide and suicide rates.
...
Results Changes in rates of homicide and suicide for treatment and control states were not significantly different, except for firearm suicides among persons aged 55 years or older (-0.92 per 100,000; 95% confidence interval [CI], -1.43 to -0.42). This reduction in suicides for persons aged 55 years or older was much stronger in states that had instituted both waiting periods and background checks (-1.03 per 100,000; 95% CI, -1.58 to -0.47) than in states that only changed background check requirements (-0.17 per 100,000; 95% CI, -1.09 to 0.75).

Perhaps free speech should be regulated only to those who use it responsibly, and limit it to those like the irresponsible people in Ferguson, right?
