      Yes, very transparent. If the left wanted a chance at any significant gun control, they would not have had such a loon like her forward it.

      Huh? Are you saying that slander is just peachy with you? Contrary to what you think, SCOTUS has upheld a number of cases of this kind. Slander and malicious defamation is illegal - contrary to "Freedom of Speech"

      I think I mentioned before, and this is more rhetorical at this point, If you were unable to purchase new 30 round magazines. period, that is it, no gun ban, now ammo ban, nothing, Only no new 30 round magazines, has your right been infringed? Are you no longer able to "bear arms" If you want...

      You are incorrect. Even though the BOR, Amendment 1 specifically states that there is freedom of speech AND freedom of the press, it is illegal for a newspaper to print an article they know is false and malicious. The BOR is not absolute. That is actually the standard definition of what is...

      The US structure of law and government does an "allow" for anything. It only restricts what is unlawful. I don't recall what the term for the type of constitution your are referring to. It is common in modern democracies of Europe, where it delineates every little right. The US Constitution...

      Actually, it clearly states that these are rights the government will not take away, hence the common use of "shall not" It does not list your absolute rights, only those the Federal government will not take away.

      Bored at work, just got to thinking about bans

      Sorry, my bad. If it makes you feel better, I started another thread on the question I brought up, and it quickly became a category Five S**t Storm, so at least you have that.

      As I mentioned earlier (way up in the thread) the rights outlined in the BOR are not absolutes. SCOTUS has never defined any of them in this way. I do not have the right to say anything I feel like saying. I do not have that right. Similarly other rights in the BOR. They are not absolutes...

      As I previously said, many responses and only on me. I need a high capacity thread responder! Looked back at the two posts you listed. #38 was mostly statements, and I saw #48 as rhetorical. My bad if I misunderstood. However, I am quite knowledgeable on the founders and history in general...

      Not advocating banning any gun, or high capacity magazines for that matter, so neither of these are applicable. Not in the Constitution. No mention of God or Creator in the Constitution. Constitution only says the right to bear arms, not the unfettered right to bear arms. On the other hand...

      Quite right. However, if your 30 round magazine is taken and you are just left with a 10, or a number of 10 and your weapon, are you still not able to bear that arm? I have not suggested banning any weapons whatsoever. In fact, I think I said it would have little impact on violence. If you...

      Page count is exploding, so I again apologize if I overlook some posts. If you want a response and I have missed it, please post it again. For whoever linked the Massad Ayoob article - Good Read. Thank you. A single takeaway quote from that is this: Americans have historically modeled their...

      No, not really. I did actually have the question, and kind of asked it in another thread, where it was suggested I start a thread on it specifically. No, and good point. One could counter this with "but they are not being used to kill" You could counter-counter (word?) with "but neither are...

      I don't think it will, certainly will not end gun violence. Neither do I think bans on guns that look scary will have a huge impact. What will have an impact is keeping guns of any kind out the hands of lunatics like Adam Lanza. He should have been in a mental institution and further steps...

      Very good. Thank you. How else am I supposed to get my post count up? Ask if you have seen any good movies a hundred times in a row? I completely understand. I have three BMWs and two Opels in my drive/garage with one being a caged road race car. Do I need more than one? Nope, even if...

      Which is why I issued a mia culpa. Again, my bad for bringing that to the thread

      Quick semi-related questions. What is a "rep"? In the classified section what is "SPF"? Not trying to side track, just saw a couple people mention "rep" and am not familiar.

      Here is an article on it. However, I concede that the point I was trying to make is not supported by this data. Gun related deaths will surpass auto accidents as the number one case of non-medical related deaths (cancer, for example will continue to be higher) My bad for the misinformation...

      Because I disagree, I'm an idiot? Interesting. I will be happy to take a picture of the ones I have now. Like I said in the OP, and in my introduction I hope to purchase a Sig P6 in the near future. However, I really like the 9mm carbine. I have been reading a lot on this forum about the...
