What is truly amazing to me is how this so-called President goes before the American people and spouts lies about how states with the strongest gun control laws have the lowest crime rates.

Absolute bullshite and he knows it. Outright lies.

And the press and half of the American people don't even question it.

Ok. As long as a test of equal difficulty is required to vote. And responsible voting habits must be displayed. Do this, and the rest will solve itself.

An aimless vote isnt going to mass murder someone.


Voting habits should be publicized, I agree. If donors are publicized, voting habits should be too. On every ballot.

And I'm not for a dumbass version of the literacy test. Is this the 1960s? Have you evolved or is your daddy George Wallace?

Yep, convinced you are a troll. Pretty shitty thread to troll in though

No im not, and i dont even know how that perception is being made of me

1. You don't think there are background checks now?
2. Define skills testing. I may agree with you here to an extent. However, skills testing won't stop criminals. It will increase the number of center mass shots though.
3. Ownership testing? Wut?
4. Great, bigger government and more taxes. Liberals love this. I see why you want it.
5. LOL If you really believe this you are a loon.
6. see #5

1. it can always be made better. And Id also have a federal agency audit the state agencies that conduct the background checks to ensure that all the right steps are taken.
2. Skills testing in terms of accuracy, precision, loading, unloading guns. If you're a hunter, then obviously youll be using different guns and rifles. You should know how to use your gun for its purpose.
3. An 100-150 question examination about gun use, laws, situations, the particular gun you own, etc. This would be another way to deter the dumb from owning guns and to make sure that those in possession are fully aware of the responsibilities required to own a gun.
4. Youre acting like another $5,000 will be coming out of your taxes. In actuality were looking at a small percentage
5. Yes I do believe 5 and 6 because these will require owners and sellers to conduct their own form of gun control and holding others liable will have a trickle down effect of responsibility and safe ownership. If i could lose my business or pay a hefty fine for loosely selling guns to cons and murders, dont you think owners would make sure every possible step would be taken to ensure that they are selling their guns to responsible law abiding citizens?

Like I said again, I only took 1 sociology class 8-10 years ago.

And I never called for an outright gun ban. But we need massive restrictions IMO.

I would back:

1) Extensive background checks, with required mental health checkups every year.
2) Skills testing
3) Gun Ownership examinations and renewals every 1 or 2 years for the duration of your ownership
4) If the owner lives with children or by a school, 1 or 2 random gun safety checks every year
5) Punitive punishments for the owners of stolen guns. If a gun is committed by a gun registered to your name, then owner also gets prosecuted, tried and jailed for their inadequate gun control (obviously this is circumstantial)
6) Punitive fines and the loss of the ability to sell weapons by gun shop owners after X amount of their dealings end in violent gun crimes.
7) Restrict the amount donors/companies can donate to political campaigns -- only way to limit the cronnies from being influenced by their own self interests

And if my taxes had to be slightly raised to protect my liberties, sensibilites and safety, then I wouldnt give 2 shits. Having my life and having others get to celebrate our great freedoms is worth more than a couple hundred bucks.

Ive taken 1 sociology class.

It is relevant, but within another discussion. Apples and oranges

Yes i can because I was referring to mass shootings in shared INTERracial spaces.

Not inner city crime.
