Enforce the current laws, no need for new laws....Driving the car is not a right, the Second Amendment is a right...So you would be ok with a test to exercise your right to vote right? I mean whats the problem?The repubs keep proving they are owned by the nra. We have real problems and they just keep selling guns. Meanwhile cops and kids are getting shot regularly. Never mind the mass shootings. No wonder the party is imploding.
Even the most moderate attempts to control guns are shot down. Conceal carry is one good example. There's a checkerboard of laws on that, differing by state. Some require a training course on safety and expertise, and a permit. What the hell is wrong with that?
There is a minimum age required to vote. It's not an unlimited right. In addition in some states, convicted felons lose their right to vote. It's not an unlimited right. Unlike the 2nd Amendment voting is a requirement of a functional democracy. Poll taxes and tests were ruled unconstitutional.
Why would a common sense approach to concealed carry bother you? People have to pass a test to drive a car but not to carry a gun?
Why is it that the 2nd Amendment is viewed by people like you as the only right in which there should be no restrictions or limits?
We already have plenty of laws on the books no reason for dumbass repetition.
What laws are on the books "for no reason" requiring a minimum of knowledge on how to operate a dangerous weapon responsibly?
Why do you oppose this?
There are limits on other rights. Why not gun rights?
We don't have the time, money or patience for frivolous behavior like the gun control nutters want...
