Am well aware criminals do not obey the law, but thank you Captain Obvious. 2nd amendment is definitely about defense, just not restricted to home or personal defense. Be advised, the only people I mentioned in the last two posts were, in point of face, responsible for the biggest gun grab in the US during my lifetime. If your were unaware, you can look it up in the government responses to Katrina.Background checks, training and licensing are not about crime, honey. They are about public safety. We can have good regulation and still keep our weapons. Try to remember the only gun grab in at least the last 70 years was under George Bush, the Governor of Louisiana and the Mayor of New Orleans after Katrina and I don't think most of those homeowners ever got them back. You may be looking the wrong direction.Not surrounding me. I favor background checks in all transfers (sale or gift) accept between direct family members and believe rifles have no place on the streets, yet you should be able to have any weapon you choose on your property to protect yourself and your family also should be able to hunt game with anything acceptable to the regulators in your state. That does not infringe. It is just well regulated.
Sure thing little foreign sweetie, just as soon as criminals can be legally required to do everything on your list.

A criminal can not be required to do training, in fact it's illegal, they can not be required to apply for a license, that would be a 4th amendment violation. They also can't be required to do background checks on private sales for the same reason. And the 2nd amendment is not about home defense or hunting. BTW none of the people you mentioned typed the BS, you did. Also you might want to find your English teachers and bitch slap them for not teaching you the proper uses of "accept" and "except".

I get in a hurry and do brain farts. If not for spell check and grammar check, would not have been nearly as impressive in college. Grammar check would catch a lot, but I don't compose in Word on here. Hardly a day goes by, I don't look at something typed and think, "WTF?". Luckily, grammar police only fire spitballs and gives them an opportunity to think something good about themselves and some of them really need those opportunities, judging by their mindset or philosophic point of view.
