2nd amendment was adopted on December 15, 1791. Think about it, that is over 200 years ago. The weapons evolved quite a bit over that period of time. I am a strong supported of our right to bear arms, but it is a good idea to ban certain weapons and high capacity clips.

Just curious why would you need one? And why few?

It makes sense, but yet there is a huge opposition to closing these shows or changing the format. The industry is very protective. For example, I believe there was an attempt few years ago to add something to guns to make them more traceable, it was successfully defeated.

No one is talking about banning the guns, this will not take place. But banning semi atomic rifles and high capacity clips might be a way to go. Also, background checks on national level, plus a much higher permit's cost for each additional gun after the first. All we can go as a society is...

Too many will. Banning gun shows, where virtually anyone can buy a firearm for cash, would be an almost impossible up heal battle, for example.

Same in my household. Only my dad has a spare key and knows combo to my safe.

That is exactly what he did according to latest reports. Most were shot via bushmaster, he used hand gun on himself, and a shotgun was left in his car. My main point is that firearms should only be sold after decent background checks to law abiding citizens. With each additional permit being...

I am liberal on many issues. I am a strong supporter of 2nd Amendment and a gun owner/enthusiast myself. It just makes sense to me that people must pass background checks before gun permit is issued. I went through the process in NYC and it ain't that bad.

Where did I say that this could have been prevented? All I said that, there could have been less casualties if he had only one hand gun with limited clip capacity. The latest I read, most victims have been shot via rifle. He used the hand gun on himself.

Correct, Believe it was semi with 30 bullets per clip.

I posted this on another thread as well: Gun controls is a tough dilemma to crack. Few things that come toy mind would be, banning gun shows where people can buy guns with cash and virtually no paper trail, making background checks mandatory on national level. I own a firearm and reside...

3. Totally see the point, that's why my idea is making it an expensive one, thus deterring many and yet allowing it for true enthusiasts. 4. I do not know much about rifles, I assumed it was an automatic or semi with 30 bullets per clip.

Gun controls is a tough dilemma to crack. Few things that come toy mind would be, banning gun shows where people can buy guns with cash and virtually no paper trail, making background checks mandatory on national level. I own a firearm and reside in NYC, it was not an easy process to get a...

Dude, I told you this before and will do it again, take a deep breath and Chill...... Show me one example where I said that I am any kind of authority. You doing the same thing over and over: attacks and insults. If you do not want to have discussions do not post on public forum.

The plot thickens. The article is leftist, but the points raised in it are very valid. Did not realize the stuff the execs did was legal. http://www.alternet.org/corporate-accountability-and-workplace/twinkie-ceo-admits-company-took-employees-pensions-and-put-it

Take away mortgage deduction, and RE prices will drop significantly. Raising kids in this day and age, is extremely expensive. That's the reason why many people opt out for 1 or 2. Taking child credits will not help with demographic. these are just 2 examples. Unfortunately, too many...

What is truly intellectually challenging is getting a surpluses and turning them into the biggest deficits this country ever knew, waging major wars and cutting taxes at the same time, and most importantly supporting a candidate who did this.

A lot of these $ are spent on president's security, I do not see anything wrong with that. He is the leader of our nation.

+1. Actions speak much louder than words. Obama said go, where McCain and Romney would say no according to them. Yes, the intelligence community and the seals deserve most of the credit, but if top leadership would have failed them, all their efforts would be at no avail.
