Would you support this gun reform bill?

[j-mac]

Reagan and the Republicans with the backing of the NRA passed a ban while he was in office.

Firearm Owners Protection Act - Wikipedia.

You think Machine guns are openly sold to citizens?

What an ignorant response.

We can't disarm criminals, but we can reduce the events where they are used by locking up the drug addicts. This will reverse the 'domino' effect that leads to shootings.

I have an idea of a new gun reform bill which I feel would be a fair compromise between both sides of the issue.

The basically layout of the bill is as follows....

1; A complete ban on direct private person-to-person sales & the establishment of Firearms Brokerages.
Under this law, it would be illegal for a gun owner to sale their gun to another person. Instead, all private sales would be required to go through firearms brokerages. These would be private businesses which handle all private sales. They would handle background checks, would hold firearms during required waiting periods, etc. Brokerages would also keep records of all sales, and customers. They would have on record the name, address, and other information of any person who purchased a firearm. This information would only be made available to law enforcement or the government with a warrant signed by a judge.

2; A complete ban on all full auto weapons, and all attachments and modifications which allow a semi-auto weapon fire at a full auto or near full-auto rate. Possession of a functional full-auto weapon, except by military or law enforcement, or licensed private security firms would be a federal felony.

3; A ban on public carry of all firearms which are not properly holstered. In other words, no more carrying rifles and shotguns around. And no carrying sidearms unless they are in a proper holster. Again this wouldn't apply to on-duty law enforcement, military, or licensed private security firms who are actively performing their duties.

4; Active prosecution of any state or local clerks or officials who fail to properly log mental health or criminal histories into the federal background check database. Cases of neglect, would result in misdemeanor charges. Cases where a person is found to have intentionally refused to properly report this information would result in felony charges.

5; Automatic accomplice charges for all cases where a gun is knowingly sold to a criminal. What this means is that if a personally knowingly and intentionally sales a gun to a criminal, they will be automatically charged as accomplices to any crimes committed using that gun. If the criminal uses the gun to murder someone, the seller will be charged with murder.

6; No second amendment rights to any person who is a member of any organization which is designated as a terrorist group, a criminal organization, or is currently being investigated for a violent and/or gang related crime.

You forgot to include the explanation of why Second Amendment proponents should compromise at all. Also, where's the part where the "I'm so SCARRREEEED of you, so disarm!" crowd give anything at all.

So no. Hell, no. And look up "compromise" because you clearly don't know what it means.

 

[scruffy]

Yeah, I am only imagine how this would work out. Currently, speaking out against teachers at board meetings would put you on the terrorist list. It wouldn't take long for anyone NOT supporting the Democratic Party to be added. This would be total disaster.

lol

Those lists have existed for a long time.

They're bought and sold by corporations now, they call it "personsl information".

 

[Devils_Advocate]

Correct, but I'm not sure the OP understands that...

Since Cain used Able head for something to beat the ground with humanity has been fixated on killing each other, so unless we eliminate the cause ( Humanity ) the cycle will keep on going and no matter how many laws we pass human nature will triumph and will kill as usual..

Great point. Instead of trying to "fix" humanity we must deal with it realistically. Only God can fix us.

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

The assault ban in 1993 did a lot of good, Bush Jr let it sunset in 2003.

Total bullshit.
It didnt do a damn thing.

 

[Anathema]

NO.

I didn’t even get past item #1. O chance it passes and no interest in reading the rest.

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

In May 1994, former presidents Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and Ronald Reagan, wrote to the U.S. House of Representatives in support of banning "semi-automatic assault guns."

That list is bat shit crazy.

Gun control laws do nothing to stop gun crime. The laws are nothing more than placebos for stupid Moon Bats.

Absolutely and in the meantime these Left Wing terrorist organizations like BLM would never be added to the list.

 

[my2¢]

I believe the constitution's 2nd amendment needs amending with some clarification before any national legislation takes place. Any constitution change requires overwhelming broad support from a mix of red, blue and purple leaning states. Plus, changes at this level prevents any proposed changes through law from being declared unconstitutional.

 

[OKTexas]

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No more compromise on anything related to guns. There are more than 2000 gun laws on the books, how about we see rigid enforcement of those first.

LMAO you can't compromise with Democrats, they LIE through their teeth and plan to screw you over from the start.

 

[Rogue AI]

Why does liberal 'compromise' only benefit gun grabbing trash? Where is the actual compromise?

Here's my compromise, get an amendment or STFU.

7. Biden and Dem politicians are criminally responsible for any crime an illegal commits. Deal?

 

[lantern2814]

Where is the "fair compromise" here"? The Gun Control Freaks don't give up anything at all and just get a lot more control.

And even if this was enacted, the Brady Bunch and other extremists would just push for more, like they did when Clinton signed the Draconian Assault Weapon Ban of 1993-94. They didn't even wait to see the effects of the bill before asking for more.

BTW, violence did NOT end in America during the ban. The Clinton Ban resulted in the attack by the Trench Coat Mafia on Columbine High School, if you'll remember.

Dems never look at the consequences. When Cuomo first signed the odious “SAFE” Act”, he didn’t even know he had just made all the State Troopers guns ILLEGAL. More laws don’t stop criminals, who don’t follow the laws anyway. Hence, why they’re called criminals.
