I guess some of us are just destined to become sheep!
"Sheep"?? Come on, Red... I've tried to be respectful here. Certainly we can have a discussion without resorting to namecalling.
Sometimes it pays to read the full text rather than let somebody tell you what it says.
The post you referenced for me (which is a chain e-mail) states "You will submit to a physical & mental evaluation at any time of their choosing". This is not true; you do have to authorize the release mental health records, but it doesn't state what conditions would make one inelligible for gun ownership. Consider somebody who suffers from schizophrenic delusions; they should be able to get guns without any restrictions?
Come on in... Just walk into my house any time you want no warrant required!
Read the text again, buddy... it pertains to any place in which firearms are manufactured, stored or held FOR DISTRIBUTION IN COMMERCE. Not private households.
A set up for a future bill involving confiscation if you ask me.
Unwarranted alarmism, if you ask me. Is your vehicle registered? Are they going to confiscate that from you?
As far as taxes & regulations... you know what has a lot of regulations? My state & city plumbing code. Costs me a lot of money, too, paying for inspections & what-not. Are they trying to make sure I'm not going to end up creating a safety hazard for my neighbors... or are they really just infringing on my individual rights?!?
Look, I know I keep beating this point into the ground, but the majority of folks just aren't biting on it:
Tell me the 2nd amendment states I have every right to keep nuclear & chemical weapons in my home (and carry them with me if I choose), and that any restrictions to that end are unconstitutional. I'll vehemently disagree with you, but at least I'll know that you're being intellectually honest & consistent.
If, however, you disagree with that statement...? Then I think you'd have to admit that not all laws & regulations regarding ARMS are a bad thing, and we don't always have to react to them with the notion that the sky is falling and we're all "sheep."
