| The Problem With Gun Control |

| "The loudest voices are echoing for limiting the ownership of guns to those Americans who are 21 years of age, or older. "And here's the conundrum. "When my boys turned ten years, I bought them B-B guns." --snip-- "So, let us confront the conundrum. "In Oregon, to hunt big game, you need a Youth License. At age 12. To hunt upland game and waterfowl, youth 13 and younger need to answer HIP validation, and that license is free. "To hunt small game, youth 11 or younger do not need a license." My kids have the same Constitutional Rights as any other American. Except for the unborn. We've taken their rights away. . |

| #9 Age is not a factor in these shootings. If 18 year olds are old enough to go to war and vote, they are old enough to own a firearm. The statists here will be trying to grab guns long after all of us have gone on to greener pastures. That has not worked out well for people where it has been actually been done. |

| #8 My problem is the fast grip squeeze. Different weapons, different grips with two fingers or three. A changeout of the EDC and I always roll the first rounds down and to the right...what? Oh, right. |

| #7 (1) If your gun is used in a crime and you haven't reported it stolen or somehow proved you had it adequately secured, you are considered an accomplice to that crime. Do that and the vast majority of gun deaths (suicides mostly) would disappear. If you commit a crime with a gun you get life in prison without possibility of parole. Doesn't matter if anyone was injured during the crime or if the perp was a minor. Do that and gun crimes will drop dramatically. |

| #5 Amendment II A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. - §311. Militia: composition and classes (a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard. (b) The classes of the militia are— (1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and (2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia. Only the blind, deaf, or mentally impaired can not connect the dots. Its those bent on evil themselves who refuse to see the connection. |

| #3 Question: any of the, non-Islamic, mass shooters was a hunter/veteran i.e., somebody who actually shoot living things before? |

| #1 If you are willing to draft them or conscript them and have them roll into war at 18, I would say they are also able to become personally responsible for their own lives and the lives of their Brothers in combat with their own expertise. All their narrative of arguments are stupid. This Tragedy was the government not protecting their people and had nothing to do with guns. All their ideas are stupid. Why do we always get sucked into their stupid narrative? Talk past those idiots. They are not listening anyway. |
