obama not after your guns ?

I personally DO advocate for that. I don't think it's too much to ask that ANYONE applying for a gun permit/buying a gun must undergo some kind of test to determine if they are minimally mentally fit to own a gun. Such tests wouldn't be infallible, obviously, but they could at least weed out the real nutzos. Of course, doing this would require building a real infrastructure. It's not like someone could just snap some fingers and voila, there is a way to administer tests of mental stability to everyone who wants a gun.Gern Blansten said:
wait....so you advocate a mental health test for ANYONE who wants a gun permit rather than weeding out those who have already admitted it through SSI benefits?Godfather. said:
that would depend on the person, but really anybody with all those problems that obama identified already have been blocked from gun ownership, it just pissed me of that he would use SS as a baseis to restrict gun ownership on anybody. but to answer your question I believe anybody with violent mental issues should not own a gun but the only way to find that problem is to do a medical or criminal background check.......not target people bassed on the source of thier legal income.WhatYouTaughtMe said:
So I will post again, hoping for an answer from the OP. In what circumstances would someone unable to handle their own business affairs be able to responsibly carry a firearm? I'm really asking without my mind made up. Is there any situation you would deem this to be safe?Godfather. said:
good for you, how do not understand ? I have said twice that obamas admin stated PEOPLE ON SS.. .. and that is just opening the door to restricting people from owning guns because of thier age, what part of that do not understand ? it was a simple fucking statement, what if he had said black or brown people who can't control thier affairs can't own a gun...what would you think about that ?WhatYouTaughtMe said:
Based on his reponses I don't take it seriously, but I don't mind if he keeps invalidating his own argument by presenting no reasonable position.Bentleyspop said:I can't believe people actually take godfoxer serious enough to try and reason with him, to debate him, and attempt to alert him to reality.
Give it up.
or was it my obama name calling that got you and everybody else in a tizzy ?

Yup, a real "tizzy" I am in.

Anyway, I see absolutely no problem with gun owners having to jump through hoops to own guns. If they think it's so important that they have them, then they should be willing to get through the red tape. There is shit loads of red tape to get a LOT of shit done, so why not for gun ownership??
That said, since that kind of system isn't the case, I think using flags like people (old and young alike) collecting government benefits through someone else because they're incapable is a perfectly reasonable place to start.Post edited by PJ_Soul onWith all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.

You think the GOP is the only party with their hand in the Haliburton cookie jar??Lets not start putting either of these sides up on a soap box.There is enough wrong doing and dirty laundry from almost all the idiot politicians in both of the above referenced events.InHiding80 said:

Though some may not agree with GF he's pretty cool and generally rolls with the punches. Though I'm big opponent of lifetime bans can see how some kept pushing when asked to chill. GF not one of those. And just look at the colorful threads he's created and kept going. GF Is an institution and so glad he's here along with you.imalive said:he's not after mine...I don't own any...I don't need to "compensate."

Disagree. If you have a gun in your home you increase your odds of someone in your family being injured or killed by gun and some criminal breaking I to your home and steeling it.Godfather. said:

That's an easy one...they did this same crap when Clinton was president. Scare the rednecks into thinking the gubmint is goin ta git yer gunz and it never happens....ever....yet they keep saying it over and over.goingtoverona said:cover your own ass?
off topic kinda but who do you guys think is responsible for selling more guns and ammunition....liberal politicians that say they're going to introduce restrictive legislation, or conservative politicians that say the liberals are coming for guns you better stock up?
Edit: I still can't believe people put up the whole "being able to fight off tyranny" mantra regarding the need to have multiple guns. As if they will be any match for drones and tactical nukes.

So comes down to all the reasons a person may need assistance with SS benefits. Not sure there's a defined list. So because of that agree with GF that this may not be the best way to weed out incapable irresponsible gun owners.
Now in my utopia all guns would be made illegal. Govt pay fair value maybe little extra and then caught carrying felony with minimum. Oh how deaths would go down.10-18-2000 Houston, 04-06-2003 Houston, 6-25-2003 Toronto, 10-8-2004 Kissimmee, 9-4-2005 Calgary, 12-3-05 Sao Paulo, 7-2-2006 Denver, 7-22-06 Gorge, 7-23-2006 Gorge, 9-13-2006 Bern, 6-22-2008 DC, 6-24-2008 MSG, 6-25-2008 MSG0 -

no guns = less deaths, agreed but I wouls also say gun deaths are less than drug, auto and some other weapon deaths like hammers and knives and the gun has played a key roll in the history of the United States and most every country in the world as far as keeping the peace and freedom from being take naway...but without guns at all in history who knows how the world would be,,maybe more peaceful ? maybe not ? humans seem to have a need to kill to settle disputes (not in general) but signs of killing are found all over the world that date back long before guns, as early as the first known (recorded) humans evidence of killing one another for verious reasons has been found so blamming guns for killing is not the answer for me, we the people are the ultimate killing weapon and it seems to have been that way since we have had to learn to survive and we have become experts at killing even without a gun and that's where the real shame lays, us not our guns.callen said:So comes down to all the reasons a person may need assistance with SS benefits.

......politics is merely the decoy of perception Well if the President said PEOPLE ON SOCIAL SECURITY...that's just a perception, just words a politician has blurted out. You know politicians spout out BS everyday that's what they do. The key here to me is not what he says but reading what the proposed bill/law ACTUALLY says. I'd put more credence into what the bill says than what comes out of President's or ANY POLITICIAN'S mouth.
