I'm not? Besides, what are you even arguing, that restraining orders are unconstitutional because they restrict freedom of movement? I don't get it

And people with restraining orders against them can't buy firearms anyway, they're supposed to turn them in as soon as the order becomes effective. If that's where you were going, somehow

So your stance, and the stance of all conservatives and the majority of gun owners, is that the constant murder of estranged wives, girlfriends and children of abusive men with restraining orders via firearms is not worth doing anything about, so long as it doesn't effect the 2nd amendment. The same I assume goes for school massacres and RaHoWa crusades?

Hiding behind the "Rule of Law" and smugly intoning that we "should just get 3/4 of state legislatures to agree to eliminate the 2nd amendment" is a fig leaf. We're fully aware of the task being made impossible by conservatives, just as they've made most helpful or useful uses of government impossible. What I want is to see just how far you people are willing to go for your guns.


If you get a restraining order against someone, they are legally barred from possessing a firearm. That is already the law in all 50 states.

It hasn't been made impossible by conservatives. It was made difficult by the framers of the constitution, on purpose, to restrict the removal of constitutional rights

Drug purchase in multiple Southern States is tracked by computer, with your ID and Address.

Gun Registry and purchase forms are paper only and not required to be sent in, even the passed background checks are not logged by law. Most are never even forwarded, and often destroyed upon closure of the store.

I'm arguing that your analogy is bad because restraining orders restrict a fundamental right in a gigantic way, yet are still constitutional and acceptable.

See, this "we won't actually confiscate anything, just make it impossible to sell or replace the things you already own, totally different" is exactly the argument California trotted out when the state banned new 10+ capacity magazines in 2000, but this year Los Angeles followed San Francisco's lead and banned previously grandfathered magazines, so gun owners have no reason to believe that "no one is coming for your guns (yet)" is a promise made in good faith or will be adhered to in the future.

so you honestly see a legal restriction on selling your gun to a teenager or felon with a violent criminal history as "basically impossible to sell a gun"

who exactly do you think buys guns? i thought it was honest, law abiding citizens? why then do you think the government should not ensure this is the case? i'm confused by what you want, and i think this is because you are also confused

yes, i see a paranoid person who is entirely worried about what one local jurisdiction is doing and extrapolating that into a zionist plot to disarm patriots across the nation. i mean i also disagree with the disarming patriots part, i think that gun owners should have as many guns as they like and use them as often as possible since they most often use them on themselves, but that still doesn't preclude me from calling out paranoid delusions when i see them

I disagree because I don't think staying 100 feet from another person is an undue restriction, while i do think that taking all your firearms away "because a cop or a stranger said so and got a GVRO" is an undue restriction



Alright last thing I'm gonna say is firearms are pretty fun and if anybody on either side of the debate lives in SE Pennsylvania and would like to see what all the fuss is about, shoot me a PM and maybe you can come shoot at a local event sometime. Maybe I'll run a background check because its not an onerous requirement imo, har har har

It's funny to think of how far "self-defense" firearms have come

Like 100 years ago you would have just thrown a .32 in your pocket and said "that'll serve to put paid to the 'wrong element' if need be"

Now that'd be seen as almost negligent, you don't have at least 30 rounds of 9mm or greater on your person? What if society collapses while you're at whole foods?

No it's not, gently caress your property, it's not worth a human life. That's why no one has been sentenced to death for theft.

Had you said "that try to kill you" then ok. But seriously, if you believe that your stuff should be defended with lethal force, your sociopathy makes you unfit to own a gun.
