To be honest, I never looked up the specific laws. My father told me I should not carry it loaded (maybe because
I was a minor?) and I assumed it was the law, but that was over 40 yrs. ago and I could have been mistaken.
I stand corrected.

All progressive liberals don't get the vapors over firearms.
I own a few myself.

I offered a proposal early on: Democrats should shut the fuck up over guns if Republicans will shut the fuck up over abortion.

Other than that, I stay out of the gun argument, one way or another.

There's a bit of a moral difference between the right to self defense and murdering a defenseless child...

by the 9th circuit, no less.

A federal appeals court ruled on Tuesday that the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment protects a right to openly carry a gun in public for self-defense, rejecting a claim by Hawaii officials that the right only applies to guns kept at home.

The extent of the right to gun ownership protected by the Second Amendment is one of the most hotly contested debates in the United States, where life has been punctuated by a steady stream of mass shootings.

The ruling issued by a three-judge panel on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, based in San Francisco, came a year after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to rule either way on the carrying of guns in public.

Two of the three 9th Circuit judges voted to reverse a decision by the U.S. District Court in Hawaii that state officials did not infringe on the rights of George Young, the plaintiff, in twice denying him a permit to carry a gun outside.

“We do not take lightly the problem of gun violence,” Judge Diarmuid O’Scannlain wrote in Tuesday’s ruling. “But, for better or for worse, the Second Amendment does protect a right to carry a firearm in public for self-defense.”

I can only say that I am stunned the 9th circus got something right for a change.

Only a Liberal is fool enough to believe passing a law that criminals won't follow will stop shootings.

Exactly. Laws don't stop crime, they punish it after the fact. It's illegal to carry a gun in a school. Hell it's illegal to walk into a school with a lone bullet in your pocket. It's illegal to kill people. But there are still school shootings. There are still murders. If you're already going to commit a crime, why would you give a fuck if it's illegal to use a gun? You're already breaking the law.

It’s so easy to allow you morons to paint yourself into a corner from which you can’t extricate yourself. That’s slow drying paint, cretin.

Looks like my second guess, that you never went to college, is true as well. lol

Republicans seem to think "Liberals" reasoned positions are so irrefutable, that rather than quoting them and refuting, Republicans make up silly statements.

There are too many errors in that quotation to count.

While there is some dispute about the degree of deterrence in statutory restrictions, most pools of experts I've polled acknowledge that there does seem to be at least a deterrent component, even when less than 100% effective.

Deals with the devil? You literally just advocated against self defense and for murder. Look in the mirror.

What he advocated for was something for which no mention exists in the Constitution and opposed something for which a direct protection is provided there.

Keep guessing, moron. Obviously, that’s the best you can do.

Are you claiming you did? Do you have proof?

I have proof you're a gun hating coward. I still have mine despite you claim I shouldn't. You posted pictures claiming it was me and where I lived. You failed to show and try to take what you said I shouldn't own.

That's how the scientific method works. Observe, postulate a theory (guess), then gather evidence to prove or disprove the theory. All evidence thus far points to proof, and nothing so far to disprove.

For example, your lack of knowledge of the scientific method points to an education level no higher than high school, and a low GPA at that. Your belief that stringing insults at your competitors on a public debate forum makes you a winner points to a low IQ and education that stopped at the 8th grade.

Regarding the First Amendment, it was assumed that such restrictions would be handled by state and municipal governments. Especially given that the Barron decision ruled that the Bill of Rights didn't apply to the states. The Constitution did grant the federal government the power to protect patents and copyrights due to their role in commerce.

But that is no longer the law. Today, most of the Bill of Rights restrict the state/local governments as well as Congress (with a few exceptions--3rd, etc.). And Congress does have laws restricting some of those rights.

Did laws about militia membership exclude felons?
 
This is not surprising in the least.....all the latest evidence in spite of the socialist propaganda demonstrates that 74% of the entire US population of over 300 million would never willingly vote for a socialist regime. The socialists are nothing more than ankle biters with big mouths void of enough ass/teeth to back up their bark. This big mouthed LATINO snowflake in NY.....has stirred up a lot of controversy making people do a double take concerning the actual implementation of a total socialist agenda....THE PEOPLE overwhelmingly prefer a free capitalistic market.

Leftists enjoying looking at polls when the polls are skewed and target large pockets of liberals....that's when you get results such as HILLARY a 90% lock to win election.


Here is the latest poll concerning socialism v. free market capitalism Yep.....the left needs to be led around by the nose ring these big mouths have implanted in the party.....just keep herding more to the left...that'all get'er done. In reality only 13% of the population reflect a socialist agenda as being superior to capitalism. How did these communists take over the demonkraut party? Apathy. Personally I believe the left has awakened that sleeping giant known as the silent majority and the latest conservative movement leading back to at least the center is not over by a long shot....its the perfect socialist storm....they are in panic mode and just continue to kick that big ole slumping giant in the ass.

If you think I only went to high school, then you’re getting your ass kicked by one.

That’s a dodge, punk. You said “inherent” right to life. Look up the word “inherent”, illiterate. Then, get back to me.

Fucking illiterate 43%er
