Another school shooting

[Rage Against the McKee]

I don't think anyone has ever suggested that the govt. confiscate antique firearms and hunting rifles.

I would prefer antique guns and hunting rifles be confiscated after a domestic violence incident.

AR-15 platform has to go.  Guy in Louisville used one he purchased legally.

I assume the very very vast majority of these death guns are legally purchased.  That is literally my point.

Have we discussed that in Kentucky when a gun is used to commit a crime it's illegal for that gun to be destroyed or even permanently held? In Kentucky these guns used to kill people, including this AR used in a mass murder, has to be auctioned off.

What's even more cruel? The pro law enforcement party forces the cops to perform the auctions, the same cops being shot by these guns. The Kentucky State Police have to do the auctions and they only get 20% of the sales

Where does the other 80% go? The general coffers?

Kentucky homeland security, for some odd reason

Banning assault weapons defeats the purpose of the second amendment you guys

So does not regulating the militia (well)

[schreds21]

Honestly, most gun owners are not opposed to reasonable gun regulation.

What are some examples of what you would consider reasonable gun regulation?

Requiring a liscence to carry a firearm on your person in a public setting.
High capacity (more than 10 rounds) magazines illegal
Require person to person sales be recorded and purchaser be subject to background check.

Actually 2 people in this very thread said just that

That's Hope-Solo mangled, but I don't regret it, for my part.

[schreds21]

I do not know who can access a "gun registry ".  I do not know that a "gun registry" exists in the form that you may be envisioning.  What I do know is that ethe serial number of every firearm I've ever purchased is recorded by the FFL that I've received the firearm from and that accompanies my background check.  The record of that transaction is recorded somewhere.

That's what I figured but thought maybe there is something I'm unaware of. Kind of disingenuous to portray that as a gun registry but you also think people are going to come in your home and take grandpappy's hunting rifle.

I never said that's what I think.  I pointed out that this is one of the biggest reasons for opposition by the pro gun crowd

Nobody is going to take your hillbilly-ass antique rifle.

Like ever, in 1 trillion years.  The gov has absolutely no interest in the broke dick remington your grandpa had in his glass door gun cabinet.

[catastrophe]

As a fellow originalist, I’m afraid that schred’s grandpa’s hunting rifle is far too new of weapon tech to be covered by the Second Amendment. BAN IT

As a fellow originalist I simply believe it should be well regulated.  Which it is currently not

[wetwillie]

We have recent legal precedent to outlaw the sale of assault weapons, this isn’t hard.

[ChiComCat]

I think there's a big difference between wishing there weren't guns and expecting the government to confiscate all guns.

Nobody would ever be scared if somebody with a Civil War musket showed up at a bank to rob the place.  "Hang on 20 minutes while I load this POS"

Different political climate. Way back in the 1980s and 1990s politicians had the irrational fear that they had to listen to their constituents. Now they know better.

We really didn't have gun legislation in this country until Ronnie was shot. I'd bet that if a prominent republican was shot today, they'd just dig in more. I don't even think this is about the brokedick nra anymore, just about owning the libs.
