Ban democrats from owning guns

Who the forget is "people"?

straw man

My friends IRL. Do I have to say this all the time? Are my vague words scaring you?

I would never trust anyone I know in real life to carry around a concealed weapon. My only real firm stance on gun ownership laws is that there should be much stricter psychological evaluation processes prior to allowing people to carry concealed weaponry.

that was the first thing the soviets did when they began disarming people so to prevent rising up.
they diagnosed 90% of people with obscure common mental disabilities so to claim that they werent allowed to have guns.
its a very subtle way to disarm people.

and the US is the most pill popping people on earth. thanks to obamacare, there already is a long list of people. things like depression, add, adhd, sleeping disorders, and other such common ailments, can easily be outlawed from owning a firearm.

"filtering out the crazies" from gun ownership is just giving the government easy access to taking them away from everyone.
people shout for  psyc evaluations, yet they dont realize how easy it is for that to criminalize ANYONE lol.
dont give the government easy loopholes just because you fear guns.

[SWAT One]

For one, that infringes on a specific group of people's rights.  By executive order during a war to provide safety, I don't mind if a single group isn't allowed guns, unless they are selected by political party relevant to the opposing side.

Is for this, if you look at the concentration of people in these places, you must think, "Huh, in a rural area, would I drive for 45 minutes or more to shoot someone I dislike or to rob them?"

Simple, there would be no reason to do that unless you completely hated that person with a burning passion equivalent to Hell.

Now in a city, you could pop over next door or to a neighboring apartment room and shoot your neighbor that you dislike in less than five minutes.

Yeah, but psychiatric institutions are private businesses, so it's not like the government could just diagnose everyone with schizophrenia and ban everyone from owning firearms.

Man, pass the blunt over here

but the gov will decide what crazy is. and it would be vague and low-end like other dictators have done.
doctors just do as they are told. its just black and white by the books to them. if you have any symptom or have taken any "X" mental health drug, you are to disabled to own a gun.

I don't think the second amendment goes far enough. If the goal of the second amendment is to defend us from a tyrannical government, the people need some more heavy weapons. Everyone needs stinger missiles, rpgs, armored personnel carriers, etc. I mean, your 9mm pistol isn't going to save you from the Abrams tank rolling down your neighborhood, nor will it save you from the mafia shooting up your house with rpgs. Giving everyone weapons like this will make everyone safer.

I know an arms dealer in Pakistan who will give us the hook up.

Also people's reasoning in a here is "If they don't agree with my I call them stupid."

[Counter98]

in the UK, not even officers are allowed guns
theres about 9 murders a year.
in the US, everyone has a gun almost.
theres about 9 murders a day. more.

United States = 3,794,000 sq miles (9,827,000 km²)
Pop: 311,591,917

U.K = 94,060 sq miles
Pop: 62,641,000


Banning firearms doesn't necessarily make a safer world for average citizens. It does, however, provide for a safer world for dictators and aristocrats. No dictatorship has survived where the people have access to firearms.

In fact, the people owning firearms is supposed to scare the government into not turning into a tyranny. That's pretty much the biggest reason the 2nd amendment was passed.

op is dumb. not all dems believe in the same exact thing

OP is joking.

The 2nd amendment says nothing about private ownership of weapons.

[Ben Grapevine]

The 2nd amendment says nothing about private ownership of weapons.

so "people" are all soldiers now?

[Harm94]

Because back in the day before super markets exsisted you needed a gun to hunt and defend your property. Hell Japan still allows you to own firearms despite being labeled anti gun.

so "people" are all soldiers now?

Judging by the large amount of call of duty players in our schools I think the army can feel self-assured that reinforcements are on the way.

This makes no sense as a response.

Did you pay attention to history class at all? After the revolution the United States didn't have a large standing army, nor could it afford to fund one. The government owed a huge debt to France for helping us in the war and the soldiers who fought the British in the continental army. Also everyone had a firearm back then. Even the George Washington himself.

[Kevdude]

Unrelated to any argument; does anybody know how they are collecting all the weapons that violate the ban?
