And the reason a 10 year old does not have that right to drive is because driving is a privilege not a right...and I'm glad you pointed this out, it proves that the left wants to do way with our right to own guns by granting them privilege status just like they would with a car...rights are universal, privilege is not.Yeah, but ted should have been barred from owning a gun, and a car, what he should not have been barred from was leaving the countrysandy hook had nothing to do with background checks or a crazy guy buying a gun. the fact is, bannerrhoid assholes want to ban guns and they will use any incremental means of doing so including lessening the standards needed to bar someone of their constitutional rights. Such as merely being on a watch list or having some bureaucrat call you a suspected terrorist. Ted Kennedy was on that watch list once
9 out of 10 gun owners in this country want extended back ground checks, including mental health.

House Republicans are arguing that if someone is put on a terrorist watch list, the Government will have 24 hours to PROVE they're a terrorist. If not then they'll be able to load up on the 25 hour--LOL That's how bad it is.
In Denver recently, a guy was on a terrorist watch list. He was actually reported by several MUSLIMS that attended his Mosque, as planning an attack. FBI goes out and interviews him, he goes in and buys a gun and the next day shoots and kills an RTD officer. Reich wingers on the Denver post board still defended him being able to purchase this gun even though he was on a TERRORIST watch list.

The Mental health issue after Sandy Hook is even more astounding that they would argue over some bat shit crazy dude being able to buy a gun.
WHAT THEY NEVER UNDERSTAND IS THAT THEIR POSITION (GUNS FOR EVERYONE) MAKES IT MORE LIKELY that someday serious bans will come into effect that will really effect their 2nd amendment rights.
A staunch Reich winger, unwilling to bend on gun restrictions for people that are put on a terrorist watch list or for crazy people are in reality are the biggest THREAT to legal gun ownership in this country.
Every time some wacadoodle or terrorist gets a gun in this country and kills people, some politician is going to call for gun restrictions. Someday it's going to happen. To limit that risk, the only option is to make certain that guns do not get in the hands of these type people, but you'll never convince a Reich winger of that until it's too late.

That's a good point you brought up a car. If you compare car regulations to gun regulations in this country, a 10 year old would be able to get behind the wheel as long as they could touch the pedal, no drivers license would be required, no insurance would be required and there would be no speed limit, and we wouldn't even have DUI laws.
Buying a gun to kill innocent people with is NOT A RIGHT.
