Thanks again, loser. You've proposed licensing and registration a couple dozen times but never once proven that this would be effective. When challenged, you resort to ad hom attacks. You've got NOTHING.Stating a fact [You're either stupid, or a damn liar. I suspect both.] isn't a personal attack, it's an observation based on your mendacity and lack our comprehension.
Stop lying, and - if you can - think about my posts. Misrepresentation is dishonest and is used by those incapable of writing a substantive rebuttal.
In most states, CCW holders have to have a license. I got mine. I just don't know if it ever helped anybody for any reason. It certainly didn't stop murderers.
When considering unfalsifiable claims, Bertrand Russell used an analogy of a celestial teapot. If a teapot was drifting in space between the Earth and Mars (making it unobservable), he claimed it would be unreasonable to expect belief of the teapot based on their inability to disprove the teapots existence. He compared the belief in God to the belief in a celestial teapot; in both cases it is not the responsibility of disbelievers to disprove its existence.

I've never claimed a license of any sort is a panacea, for gun violence or speeding on a public roadway. It is one idea with a specific goal, to mitigate the number of guns in the hands of those who should not have them.

Okay......you posted this, so I ask again....how does the license mitigate the number of guns in the hands of those who should not have them?
It would limit the source, to those who disobey the laws. It is a bit more difficult too sell a long gun than a hand gun but easier than selling pot by the gram then any gun.
Next step. A crook is arrested for a petty crime or a wobbler, in his or her possession is a hand gun. The DA is pushing for 1-year county jail, three years probation, or, 20 days CJ, 345 suspended and one year probation if you tell us who sold you the gun, if we use your information and are able to arrest the person who sold you the gun.
How does it limit guns....you still have not explained that...considering that if someone is a friend or a relative of a gang member and is knowingly a straw purchaser, they obviously don't care about the risk....do they? And that is one of the most popular ways for criminals to get guns. So the straw purchaser will get the license, buy the gun and report it lost or stolen as the gang member uses it........making your whole scheme silly.....
And here is a guy who was covicted of a gun crime...armed robbery, served less than 2 years on the paltry 3 year sentence....and now has killed 2 innocent people.....
Suspected Killer, a Convicted Felon on Probation, on the run in FL
Chandler is a convicted felon who was released from prison in September 2011, after serving less than two years on a three-year sentence for attempted armed robbery with a weapon.
According to court records, Chandler walked into a convenience store in Bradenton with a handgun, jumped over the counter and demanded money from the store clerk. The robbery was interrupted by the clerk’s co-worker and Chandler tried to run away, but the clerk held Chandler by his shirt and fought him until police arrived.
He is currently still on probation and his last known residence is approximately three blocks from the convenience store at the center of Monday’s double murder.
Do you think he would get a license for his gun?
How hard was it for this convicted felon to get a gun.....do you really think a requirement for law abiding people to get a license would keep that gun out of his hands.....?
