My guns are loaded, and never use a safety. If a gun is unloaded, you might as well use a rock. (Thursday Oct 2 | post #2166)

Since the words weapons and firearms are not mentioned in these executive orders, how do you interpet this? http://www.whiteho use.gov/news/relea ses/2007/05/200705 09-12.html (Thursday Oct 2 | post #2084)

Zak, Please study carefully before you make your decision. First of all, it isn't Obama that will take away your rights. Look at the past statements of Charles Schumer: http://www.ontheis sues.org/domestic/ Charles_Schumer_Gu n_Control.htm Voted NO on prohibiting foreign & UN aid that restricts US gun ownership. Amendment SA 2774 to H.R. 2764, the Department of State's International Aid bill: To prohibit the use of funds by international organizations, agencies, and entities (including the United Nations) that require the registration of, or taxes guns owned by citizens of the United States. Proponents support voting YES because: Sen. VITTER: This is a straight funding limitation amendment. Many folks who haven't followed the proceedings on this in the U.N. may ask: What is this all about? Unfortunately, it is about an effort in the United Nations to bring gun control to various countries through that international organization. Unfortunately, that has been an ongoing effort which poses a real threat, back to 1995. In 2001, the UN General Assembly adopted a program of action designed to infringe on second amendment rights. The Vitter amendment simply says we are not going to support any international organization that requires a registration of US citizens' guns or taxes US citizens' guns. If other folks in this Chamber think that is not happening, that it is never going to happen, my reply is simple and straightforward: Great, then this language has no effect. It is no harm to pass it as a failsafe. It has no impact. But, in fact, related efforts have been going on in the U.N. since at least 1995. I hope this can get very wide, bipartisan support, and I urge all my colleagues to support this very fundamental, straightforward amendment. No opponents spoke against the bill. Reference: Vitter Amendment to State Dept. Appropriations Bill; Bill S.Amdt. 2774 to H.R. 2764 ; vote number 2007-321 on Sep 6, 2007 Voted NO on more penalties for gun & drug violations. The Hatch amdt would increase mandatory penalties for the illegal transfer or use of firearms, fund additional drug case prosecutors, and require background check on purchasers at gun shows. [A YES vote supports stricter penalties]. Status: Amdt Agreed to Y)48; N)47; NV)5 Reference: Hatch Amendment #344; Bill S. 254 ; vote number 1999-118 on May 14, 1999 Joe Biden: Voted NO on more penalties for gun & drug violations. The list goes on. And polls lean toward a veto proof congress coming up. Look what the congress did in 1994, and research what some of the liberals think about gun control.

I agree with all but the first sentence. A tool is something I cause to do something. Therefore the Republicans and Democrats are both tools of the NRA if there are pro 2nd amendment. The NRA spend a lot of money supporting R's and D's alike to help form a pro 2nd amendment congress. Yes the NRA is a SIG, but it is supported by 3 million Americans. (Thursday Oct 2 | post #2057)
One additional problem with this: " The bill banned ammunition that “may be used in a handgun” and can penetrate the “minimum,” type 1, level of body armor" A Thompson Contender is a single shot handgun with interchangable barrels for nearly every pistol and rifle bullet made. If you outlawed every bullit that you can shoot from a TC, it basically be every one. (Thursday Oct 2 | post #2045)
Kinda like my dream world. You are searched at the state line and if you don't have a gun, you are issued one. (Thursday Oct 2 | post #2044)
Armor piercing Ammo has been illegal for private citizen ownership for years. The problem is calling any round that will penetrate a bullet proof vest armor piercing. (Wednesday Oct 1 | post #1761)

Hey sista', you are the same one that thinks a doctor should allow a baby to die after being born alive after a late term labor induced abortion. You never did answer my question about that. How long does the mother have the right to kill her child? 5 seconds, 10 minutes 3 days, 4 years where do you draw the line. Can your mama still abort you? You want to murder these babies, but tell me I can't shoot some thug breaking into my house. You need help in the worse way. (Wednesday Oct 1 | post #1717)
Fight over open carry gun policy in Texas
What I said was you can open carry on property you own or control. A city cannot outlaw it. The state legislature does outlaw open carry on other than the above mentioned property. It is a state law they want passed to allow open carry. I do have a CHL, but don't particularly like the idea of open carry, for it would be too easy for someone to take it away from you if it is in the open. It happens top police officers all the time.
