USA: "Move to Justice Dept. Brings ATF New Focus"

[Oleg Volk]

How many here are in favor of the concept of "enforcing the gun laws currently on the books"?

Not I. Limiting the laws to "shall not murder, rob or otherwise wantonly initiate violence against another person" would be far more useful and less abusive than the myriad of laws referring to technical and procedural aspects of gun ownership.

Insert the words "or through negligence" after the word "wantonly". Done? OK. What Oleg said.

Now I have a question. Can anyone think of even one gun law which might garner 100% support here at THR? I don't mean laws about the use of guns, such as killing someone or firing in a neighborhood. I mean laws that apply to adults dictating the types of guns you can possess, how you can get them, who can own them, features they can have, modifications you can make, etc.?

I can't.

What's a "gun law"?

How many here are in favor of the concept of "enforcing the gun laws currently on the books"?

"Gun laws" are prohibited by the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and extended to States by the 14th. There are NONE! Zero, zip, nada.

How many here are in favor of the concept of repealing the gun laws currently on the books? Me.

Chipper with all due respect your post is right on target and brings credit to all gun owners.

DFBonnett with all due respect, where have you been for the last seventy years?

Me, too. How many here back the concept of, "keeping guns out of the wrong hands"?
