Biden's Attorney General Threatens People With Prison

That's obviously nothing but a hyperbolic rant.
The average sentence for all felon in possession of a firearm offenders was 64 months.

5⅓ years plus another possession offense as soon as they let you out.

That's obviously nothing but a hyperbolic rant.
The average sentence for all felon in possession of a firearm offenders was 64 months.

But the point is the federal government has zero firearms jurisdiction, so any federal firearm law is totally illegal.
Why do you think there was no federal firearm law before 1937?

 

[meaner gene]

Instead they arbitrarily are nanny laws, attempting to proscribe actions done by oneself, to oneself, and clearly that is totally beyond the authority of government. There is no way government can ever have that authority because there is no individual who has that right to delegate.

Based on that, there should be no laws against suicide.

 

[justinacolmena]

And clearly the SCOTUS was wrong.
Pot has to always be outside of federal jurisdiction, since the 9th and 10th amendments clearly say that implied jurisdiction through the commerce clause, is illegal.

So let's put guns outside federal jurisdiction too. But no, we can't do that because the libs have German windmills and want to drive 800V electric cars while high on weed, but they they don't want to allow us to bear arms according to the Constitution.

It never occurred to anyone that the government would be so intrusive as to question anyone's right to "possess" any sort of Firearm or weapon.

They have been saying the same thing for almost a century.

Why where there no laws against terrorism before 1990?

Laws are enacted as needed.

 

[Rigby5]

Exactly.
Suicide should be within your own rights, and harms no one else.

 

[Rigby5]

They have been saying the same thing for almost a century.

Don't think so.

In the United States, the use and possession of cannabis is illegal under federal law for any purpose, by way of the Controlled Substances Act of 1970.

[Rigby5]

Why where there no laws against terrorism before 1990?

Laws are enacted as needed.

Laws against terrorism are also illegal.
It is a political slight of hand, where we claim it is legal when we do it, but illegal when someone else retaliates.

There was not really a need for the 1937 federal firearm act, what there was instead, was the need end Prohibition because that was inherently illegal and harmful. It was Prohibition that was causing the violence, not surplus Thompson machine guns.

 

[meaner gene]

Exactly.
Suicide should be within your own rights, and harms no one else.

Especially those committing suicide by jumping out of tall buildings. Or driving into oncoming traffic.

Right?

 

[meaner gene]

Exactly.

You've never seen "It's a wonderful life"?

George Bailey's suicide would have harmed no one else?

Don't think so.

You've gone off the deep end.
9-11 should have been legal?

 

[Rigby5]

Especially those committing suicide by jumping out of tall buildings. Or driving into oncoming traffic.

Right?

Well of course anything harmful to others can be legislated against.
That is not about making suicide illegal, but about making actions harmful to others illegal, regardless of why you might be motivated to do it.

 

[Rigby5]

You've never seen "It's a wonderful life"?

George Bailey's suicide would have harmed no one else?

That movie was not real.
One person's suicide might in reality makes things better.
But that was not just suicide in that movie, but a wish to never have been born or existed at all.
Very different.

There is no butterfly effect?

Nobody exists in a vacuum.

 

[Rigby5]

You've gone off the deep end.
9-11 should have been legal?

No, 9-11 was already illegal under normal existing laws and did not require more laws like those against terrorism.
Terms like "terrorism" that are subjective and malleable, allow for authoritarian governments to do whatever they want.

When the Barbary Pirates captured US seamen, no new law was needed by Jefferson or Madison.

 

[Rigby5]

There is no butterfly effect?

Nobody exists in a vacuum.

But it is each person's right to determine their own future, and again, the butterfly effect could be for the better.

That's where you're wrong. Without a law against terrorism, Osama BinLaden wouldn't have committed a crime.
