Which is a greater infringement:
- When a parent loses a child to gun violence
- When a citizen is required to secure a license to own, possess, etc. a gun
Sorry....you aren't RealDave so you may not have seen the answer to his "why not license gun owners," and add pointless levels of paperwork to a Constitutionally protected Right....
Again....you didn't answer my point about licensing, so just in case you didn't see it yet...it is Post #250 in this same thread......
A gun license is first...a tax on the Right to own a gun, therefore unConstitutional according to Murdoch v. Pennsylvania, the Supreme Court decision.
Second, if a person is stopped and the cop runs their name for warrants and complaints.....and they see they are a felon, they will check them for guns...if they find the gun, they can arrest them...since they can't buy, own or carry a gun so they can't get a license to begin with....but they get arrested because they already can't carry or own the gun....
No license scheme is required to do this...
If they stop you, and you are not a felon or a criminal, and you have a gun and you weren't committing a crime with it....you go on your merry way.....no need to license the gun owner.......
Do you see now why licensing does nothing to stop crime or mass shooters....? And how it is needless bureaucratic paperwork simply to create legal jepoardy for the law abiding gun owner?
You want a lack of filling out a piece of paper to be a crime that will lock up a person who has not used a gun to commit a crime...that is what you want...right? And that makes sense to you?
