Gun Control & RKBA

(2,679 posts)I lived in a big city and had to wait a month while it got slow walked through. Then I moved out to suburbia and that did't happen. It also has the potential for abuse just like safe storage laws.
They say 22 veterans kill themselves every day. I'd like to see a study on those numbers done. I wonder how many of those that were committed with a firearm that was purchased within a week. That should be pretty easy info to get since they are prob tied to the VA.
You view UBC's as a bargaining chip. I was a NRA member, certified instructor, shot IPSC when it was just getting started. I left because they went from a gun safety group to a"pry it from my cold dead hands" group. I still teach some classes and I am seriously thinking of joining again. Maybe if enough of us start sounding off they may change back.
Your 1st Amendment right isn't going to turn someones head into a canoe. A lot of people hate any type of government involvement when it comes to firearms. I can understand that. Without some rules and regulations someone is just going to shit in your meat.
And speaking of meat. Doe season starts today (we can kill 3 a day here) I'm off to the stand. I've got a week to get 4-5 in the freezer. That is what we eat all year.
