President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Gun ownership is unregulated? Shit, guess I’ll stop and pick one up on the way to work today.

Also, I would love for every Democrat running for election from here on out to read your rant verbatim.

 

Is this willful ignorance or a failure in reading comprehension? Ragu didn't say we have unregulated gun ownership. He is saying that the arguments against gun control pushed by the NRA and like-minded folks misrepresent the second amendment, claiming it gives them the right to fight against any regulation of guns.

 

Failure. Bingo!
Reading comprehension. Bingo!

No one is advocating unregulated gun ownership. There’s a name for such a suggestion.

 

Unregulated?

 

Plenty of states with no waiting period. Fill out the background check, and you can get that 12-gauge at WalMart on the way home.

Lots of other states have no background check on private sales.

So if you want to pick up a little something at the gun show, by all means do.

 

Background checks are regulations.

I’d be fine with closing private sales loopholes to the extent they exist.

Ultimately, not much of a gun guy, so I probably won’t pick one up today, but I think any given right is more important than whether I feel the need to exercise it.

Interestingly enough, the kids’ undisciplined approach has emboldened a lot of adults to reveal their true goals. The stated indifference to personal rights is a fascinating — although not surprising — aspect of the debate.

 

You don’t believe an individual should be able to purchase a gun for protection? Said individual should rely on authorities — like the FBI and Broward County Sheriff’s Office?

You would be content to live in a country where someone who fears for his/her safety or that of those close to them had no recourse?

 

Again, by state, you may not need to fill one out.

And the idea that you can't stop and legally get a gun on your way to work in this country is laughable.

And how many times does it have to be said that we limit - quite happily - the 1st Amendment?

 

Are you Cameron Kasky, Az?

Spud should really enjoy this one.

Do you honestly not understand that we restrict speech in this country?

With libel laws? And laws against incitement?

How about child pornography? There's a free market for that isn't there?

It's just speech after all.

 

Do I really need to explain Medicaid reimbursement to you again? The federal government does not just give Planned Parenthood $500 million and tell them to behave themselves.
