Idiots will be idiots (see Fishpoo and Dingaling). And liars will lie and spread misinformation. (See Williowby) And the ignorant will skip over the 1st Amendment in favor of the 2nd (see Ice Barbie)

Even "slave soldiers" are not allowed to carry loaded weapons except under certain circumstances and only in the performance of their duties.

Weapons for soldiers are stored in the armory and are checked out and all ammo is accounted for.

Reducing and eliminating rational common sense rules for weapons is a fools game. But then again we are currently being led by clowns and fools.

What should we expect from clowns and fools? A more hostile and unsafe and deadly world where everyone is practically FORCED to carry deadly weapons. In that world you will need a security detail just to leave your homes.

Gratz.

Enjoy the FAFO America.

How many people have you murdered, threatened, etc with your guns?

Do you still beat your wife?

Hugh is not "everyone". I think the question you are looking for is how many people have been murdered threatened etc by others with guns. Guns are involved in about 40,000 deaths a year in America.

And some people can clearly be trusted. Others clearly cannot. But regardless trust has to be earned.

There is a reason we don't let kids who haven't taken drivers Ed drive and we require them to get a permit to drive cars. We don't trust them. Cars too can be deadly weapons and not everyone has what we used to call "common sense".

" If you can be drafted, you should have the same rights as everybody else. ..."

What a maroon. There is no draft now is there?? How can they be slaves if they all volunteered? It's an all volunteer defense force. That's the reality. So nope. No slave army in this reality. But I am sure Trumpy can fix that.

Maybe we'll even have an all immigrant Army soon. All winners of the American Ice Barbie Games. (losers go straight to the gravel pits)

Meanwhile people willingly agree to the government's terms (the UCMJ) and they willingly sign the contract. If they don't read the contract then that's on them.

They're frightened silly by the thought of anyone owning a firearm.

Actually.

I just don't want to be FORCED to always carry one in order to protect myself and my family from idiots like you if I just want to go out on the streets to buy some milk and eggs.

I know that YOU maga maroons want America to be like the Wild West again but even Wild West towns had restrictive gun policies for keeping the peace and the protection of its citizens.

Many towns had strict ordinances against openly carrying guns, and sometimes even concealed weapons, within city limits. While the idea of a lawless frontier is part of the mythology, in reality, law enforcement and town officials actively enforced gun control measures.

Openly carrying guns and knives in most populated areas was generally illegal.

Why mention knives? I suppose you want to ban my KA-BAR.

Can you carry it onto a commercial airliner?

If not do you understand why?

"Now you bring in airlines?

Because there are actual federal regulations that affect guns AND knives.

You seem pretty dumb.

Wasn't sure if you knew.

Just admit you're scared to death of knives also.

Grow up willowby.

I am not worried for me. I can and will defend myself. And maybe even the folks around me. But. Unlike you apparently I do care about the safety and welfare of others who cannot or have not been trained to defend themselves.

Like our teachers and our children.
