It's not about lowering the murder rate it's about control.I didn't say they could take it away. What I said is they can use the tax stamp process and other taxes to make it too expensive for most people to buy them.Incorrect, it's already being done for machine guns and it did not Fail. Government is allowed to tax you to hell and back for any damn reason they want to. Well except to vote that is.Taxing guns to make them too expensive for people to exercise their right to arms violates that right to arms in exactly the same manner that taxing abortions to make them too expensive for women to have one violates their right to choose.
Infringement. Unarguably. Fail.
And so, criminals will still get guns. Fail.
And so with the vote so with having a gun....it is a right, just like voting, thanks for proving our point for us....
why should we make them harder for peaceful, law abiding people to buy them...they ain't the ones using them to kill other people....
here is an original idea....how about we try to stop actual criminals with 40 convictions who get arrested on a gun charge from using guns to murder people....you know, something that will actually lower the gun murder rate?
and not one thing you want adds to "control" since criminals will get around your tax stamp idea as easily as they do the other laws meant to prevent them from getting guns.
