Which ones do you have? All of them?


And do you have any high-capacity magazines?

compensation for lacking in other areas.


What areas are those?

Usually it involves a head, big or little, it's usually the one or the other, or sometimes both.

The fact that a law passes does not mean it is constitutional. I point you to Jim Crow, mixed-race marriage bans, and the gun laws that were struck down in Heller and McDonald.

We all know why Jim Crow type laws were allowed back then. So, point to me which part of that law is unconstitutional? Wouldn't someone have brought up an appeal by now? Wouldn't the home of the NRA fought that law if it was unconstitutional? Or is the NRA now so broke because they can't get Russian money anymore that they don't have the money to fight it?

They wouldn't, they would take the same amount of time as they did before. Once the info is entered, mine take anywhere from 30 seconds to an hour or so. It would just eliminate private sales. There will still be plenty of straw purchasers from MD/NY/NJ, and that won't change until DMV does a more thorough job of issuing Virginia IDs. It is to easy to set up a false residence here.

I live in PWC and this surprised me as well. We are the same county that elected the first transgender person to a state senate.



Its full of military aged males 18-45 and a large portion of gun owning minorities.

There is national conservative money behind this fake movement and I bet Russia is behind the fake out rage of the grubby neck beard old white guys. This reminds me of the “ammo shortage” when Obama was reflected. They were lined up outside of Green Tops.

There are no current laws threatening your right to own guns boys.


You are correct, although there are proposed laws that would.

Trash is trash.


No humans a trash. You are a sick bigot.


Gun culture = trash


The "gun culture" people aren't the ones you should be worried about. For most, it's just a hobby, or it is part of their job. You know, like cops and people in the military.

You should be more worried about gang an drug dealing culture, which accounts for most homicides.


Ok. “Baltimore”. Got the code.

Where did they get their guns? They were all sold legally at some point. Someone in the “gun culture” is putting them on the streets.


Do you have any data to back this up?

I would say most come from straw purchasers who work along side these thugs in other states. Often a relative or spouse.

I think adults who recklessly leave a firearm where a child can obtain it should be charged. Last week there were two incidents in the RVA area where toddlers got guns. One killed a sibling, one killed himself. Also the morons who leave guns in motor vehicles that are then stolen ought to face charges. It is an extremely common way criminals get a hold of guns. Many are just straw purchasers where the gun/car owner claims a theft happened and can then make a claim on insurance while he knows damn well who has his gun.

Failure to accept some common sense laws is going to back fire for those who want to keep some rights. I'm a gun owner and I think there is something wrong with you nuts who think you should have unlimited access to assault weapons. The NRA lost me back in the 1990's when they went to the mat defending cop killer bullets.

Gun ownership comes with responsibilities. If you F up, there should be consequences. But the problem is that our country is full of uneducated rubes who have been brainwashed by the NRA and Fox News for 25+ years.

All of this.


Please expand on "Cop Killer Bullets"? I have never heard that phrase outside of Hollywood. Now possibly you are referring to hollow points? If you are let me know so I can educate you about them, their usage and why "Cop Killer" is a myth. Hollow Points are actually much safer for civilians to use in self defense situations.

Seriously if you want to know I can try to explain why, but I'm guessing I'll just receive some attacks and insults.


Anyone?

Any bullet that can kill a police officer should be outlawed, period. Frankly, and bullet that can kill a human should be banned, but one thing at a time. I'll take what we can get for now.

300,000 people murdered by a guns every year are all the stats anyone needs.

I'm NOT ok with that part. I want background checks to take much, much longer, not be the same or faster than now. I want them to take as long as possible, frankly. Anything that conceivably can delay a purchase as long as possible might save lives. If we can't have lengthy waiting periods and cooling off periods, then lengthy background checks can achieve the same ends. If it were up to me and I was setting the budget for such things, background checks would take months. I might not be able to keep you from owning a gun, but if I can delay it as long as possible I certainly would.

That's not what the Brady bills are proposing.

What kinds of guns do you think are acceptable for a regular person (ie not a police officer or someone in the army) to own ? Because I'm betting you're actually more of a gun nutter than you think you are.

Do you owning a handgun should be allowed?

What about sniper rifles or rifles capable of extreme accuracy at long distances?

How about guns that shoot devastatingly powerful ammunition like shotguns?


Where do you stand on stuff like this? Do you think people should be allowed to own stuff like above?

If I already own 10 or 20 firearms, I shouldn't be made to wait as long as possible just for the heck of it. Maybe a five day waiting period, but if I pass the background check I, I pass.
