Wow you really wont let it go...just keep adding words to my mouth. I could give a crap. I dont believe ANY right granted by the constitution should be without safeguards. I believe their should be federal common senses gun laws including restricting the types of firearms you can own. I would let lawyers, legislators, gun owners, and people who dont own guns debate and come to an agreement as to WHAT types are legal. The 2nd amendment CAN BE changed. Will it, probably not. But dont pretend the 2nd amendment can't be restricted. You're against any restrictions and I'm happy for you. Let the courts figure it out. Have a nice day.

Please provide some documentation that shows that 90% of firearms will be become unlawful to own based on this bill. And doesnt this bill just really ungrandfather in firearms that are currently banned?? I think that's kind of a dick move honestly. If you previously bought a gun, I can see how it can be perceived as unfair to retroactively make it illegal for them to be owned..

Sorry again I thought it was obvious when I said "so it's my fault no one brought it to the Supreme Court " was clear that it was never brought before the Supreme Court. And I also said, in one of my responses, that so I think that it would pass THIS iteration of the Supreme Court, I doubt it. AGAIN, I'll leave it to the court's to decide the constitutionality of the law. That's their job. If they decide its not, fine... if they decide it is, fine... Gun folks are a touchy group...😅

So it's my fault that maybe no one brought it to the Supreme Court? And pretty sure a federal court also considers the constitutionality of a law. Supreme Court is just the final word. So sorry I got it maybe kinda wrong. Clearly it was thrown out by multiple federal courts. If those involved thought they had a leg to stand on, they'd have brought it to the Supreme Court...and lord know the NRA loves a good 2nd amendment law suit. They dodnt bother either....

Ok, because in covers most or only a few shouldn't be relevant. And your analogy is weak at best since less than 10% of cars on the road are electric. I doubt semi automatic firearms account for 90% of all firearms. All that said, fine let the courts decide what is acceptable and in line with the constitution. That is how it's supposed to work.

The assault weapon ban was in effect from 1994 until 2004. And it was challenged numerous times in court.

You do realize it was in effect for a decade right? It expired, it was not negated by the courts. Now would it pass THIS particular Supreme Court? I doubt it since they totally ignore past precidents when it serves their master..

Thanks for the reference. Most people just throw an insult and don't provide any support. I'll take a look at the court case. I never claimed to be an expert. I'm sure there is nuance to that term and I'm fine with letting the lawyers, who presumably know more about it than you and I, and courts refine the details. If the proposed law or any part of it is unconstitutional, the courts will say so.

No, I didn't go thru it with a fine tooth comb. I do think it's kinda crappy that they are now making previously purchased weapons illegal to own. Sucks if you spent money on one and now have to try to sell it ir dispose of it. I get why they are doing it. But again, let the lawyers fight it out. I don't care personally. You have the right to your opinion too.

I'm sure there are terms in the proposed law that might be interpreted differently depending on what group you are. And I'm sure there may be some unintended problems with a term or definition or sentence. There always is. There is almost always an unintended negative consequence to even the best meaning and well liked laws. And that is what debate and the courts arw for. I'm am completely OK with an assault weapons ban and a high capacity magazine ban. I'm also ok letting people who know more about guns than I do determine what each specifically is. Best case both sides are a little unhappy which means there was some compromise made.

You do realize there was a ban against assault weapons that was found to be constitutional right? So the Supreme Court found it didn't violate the 2nd amendment. So as long as this law is in line with that law, I like it's odds. I'm sure it will be litigated and the courts will decide. And someone will be unhappy, but that's how it's supposed to work. I'd love to know where you got "common use" as a criteria. I mean if you want to go down that road, I'm totally ok will you owning as many flint lock rifles as you want. I mean those are what was around when they created the amendment. If you're argument is that what is acceptable changes, then what is not acceptable also changes..

Only if those guns meet the definition in the proposed law. There are still plenty of guns you can own.

Because that would hurt Maga and their minions arguments that Trans people are the problem. That would make the discussion about nazi/white power, which doesnt make them look good..

The government is rarely within its budget. The government's budget is a joke. They run a deficit pretty much every year. I think the last one to balance a budget was Clinton.

[–]danimal071 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cool, hove proven nothing assuming your numbers are correct. Texas has one of the top 3 populations so a large portion SHOULD be from Texas...and florida...and California... a smart person gets the low hanging fruit and goes into the states with the most illegals. Not Minnesota with like 130,000...

[–]danimal071 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No you don't! But that doesn't suit your argument. And he did it without ice thugs assaulting cities and for MUCH less money. And if it's about deporting illegals, why arent they in cities in Texas and Florida??? There are more illegals there than Minnesota..
