In response to quickmajik a deer rifle makes an excellent weapon in combat. What do you think a sniper would use? 0 -

Do you mean that any criminal with a violent background has the right to buy and own a firearm in the U.S? Here in Canada, the only persons who do not have the right to own a firearm are people with a violent background. Some lose their right for 5 years, others 10 years. After this period of time, they must prove that they no longer have a problem with violence in order for them to be able to own a firearm.
What you're talking about is not a right but a privilege.
Yes you are right and that is exactly what the intention of my message was.....owning a firearm is not a right, it's a privilege.0 -

Perhaps in canada.
WE have a solid right to own arms here. Difference being, our reps won't awken and realize such, as it is NO advantage to them.0 -

Maybe in theory, freemind. Both, de facto and de juro, this right has been reduced to privilege. A LOOOOOONG while ago.0 -
A "right" is something that cannot be taken away from you.
If a person did have the right to "bear firearms", even inmates could have them.
There are very few basic human rights.0 -

You confuse `Rights" with reality.
I can take you money, your wife, your life..and there is little you can do about it. If you believe in God, there is relief there...if not, tough snit. You just lost the entire ballgame.
The reality is...we are required to judge mans' actions here on this earth ..and within certain parameters, the safety of society trumps `my' absolute "Right" to endanger innocent life through `my' stupidity.
While society has the duty to protect itself from the criminally insane, the Founders laid out a basestone for the protection of the entire system...that being the Second Amendment.
We do indeed have nearly absolute Second Amendment Rights..if we have the courage to fight for them.
In politics, in courts...and ultimately, in the streets.0 -

Don't forget to mention all the fighting that is going on behind computer keyboards.0 -
One very reasonable scenario in which the goverment will take guns and supplies is by
1. An 'Element' seizes control of the WH, with cohorts in Congress
2. A terrible event is staged on American soil, blamed on terrorists, and suspects are drawn up (framed)
3. Martial Law is declared, which is justified as necessary to protect the Public
4. Complete control of the media is assumed, and the populace is controlled by manipulating the flow of information
5. Civil liberties are curtailed, house to house searches follow, anybody resisting will be arrested
6. People resisting the Government are labeled terrorists and rounded up
This scenario could very well be enacted within ONE ELECTION CYCLE in todays political climate0 -

Gibberish written, or as you've said before, I think HB, "baby gabble".[:D][:D][:D]0 -
Some of you sound like the failed writer, the frustrated poet penning snippits, amassing a new American Gothic. I have been to hell, I flourshished there. These4 pages are filled only withe the unending ramblings of the scored, burned out Mass of wannabes. Those who have tasted, and I mean drank the blood, will be entertained as each kills the other. 0 -

A deer rifle if he or she could not find something better.0 -
Someone figured out my password and it seems they tried to get me in trouble, I'm sorry HB, I did not post that. 0 -
Well, Quick..since I could not figure out what was said...I didn't know to be insulted or honored.
No harm, no foul.0 -
Well, Alec411, now that you have established your bonifides, are you going to submit gracefully to the disarming...or are you going to be doing the disarming ? 0 -

Alec,
Abuse of methamphetamines has been proven detrimental to your health and well-being.0 -

[:D][:D][:D], Snicker, snicker, So I am not alone in that assumption then.0 -
quick,
Judging by the content of Alec411's post, i'd surmise we are way past the 'assumption' stage.
I looked to see if a pic was included in his profile, but alas, there was not one to be found. If he would be so kind as to post a photograph, preferably one in which he is smiling, we could confirm our suspicions by a visual examination of his teeth.
If they look like he has been knawing on a crowbar, then I'd say it is safe to say my statement regarding his indulgence in recreational pharmaceuticals is true. [;)]0 -
