In reply to the discussion: If guns were as regulated as cars [View all]discntnt_irny_srcsm

Your interest in an incredible numbers of requirements and qualifications for a protected right and your again bringing nothing to the table is noted and speaks to your disdain for nearly 40% of the people of voting age. Get a clue about why your simple laws about UBCs that are supported by "90%" of the country, fail once the culture warrior congress critters add all that kind of useless crap to the bills.
IMO the more often your side pushes for those types of counter-freedom laws, the more people will stop listening to you and just mechanically decide to oppose ANY pro-control measures and ALL pro-control candidates.
Please continue working to ensure your own irrelevance.
