At what point in getting my face smashed in by a trained dude twice my size am I allowed to start using a gun?
it punishes people like me that type multiple lines to make them easy to read instead of one long line...
Lol but they do use them responsibly
slow mode is on so that people actually type out what they want to say instead of just spamming multiple lines
it's only down to 5 seconds now
@@I AM ERROR Who said the person has to have dementia? I am disabled, should I just role over and die if someone wants to harm me?
yeah that should work, I guess.. better ๐
Miss America 1945 iirc defended herself a few years back with a snub nosed pistol
basically, encourage people to put more thought into what they're saying
DONT PUNISH ME FOR QUICK THOUGHT AND TYPING ๐
A little old lady isn't going to get the upper hand against a 30 something fit dude
^unless they have a firearm
If she were a real man she'd beat him in fisticuffs
Aye but that's the point
well my idea is this, get rid of the NFA stamps, if i want a howitzer, i should be able to buy a howitzer...
Can you not?
There are private citizens who own tanks and AA guns
it's no longer considered small arms....
@Schedrevka no, you should defend yourself to the degree allowed by law
Takes a higher class license to own stuff like that if I'm not mistaken
well, you need nfa stamp for the artillery then you need nfa stamps for each of the rounds :V
In Maine
17-A M.R.S.A. ยง 2(9) Dangerous weapon: A. "Use of a dangerous weapon" means the use of a firearm or other weapon, device, instrument, material or substance, whether animate or inanimate, which, in the manner it is used or threatened to be used is capable of producing death or serious bodily injury. B. "Armed with a dangerous weapon" means in actual possession, regardless of whether the possession is visible or concealed, of: (1) A firearm; (2) Any device designed as a weapon and capable of producing death or serious bodily injury; or (3) Any other device, instrument, material or substance, whether animate or inanimate, which, in the manner it is intended to be used by the actor, is capable of producing or threatening death or serious bodily injury. For purposes of this definition, the intent may be conditional. C. When used in any other context, "dangerous weapon" means a firearm or any device designed as a weapon and capable of producing death or serious bodily injury.
So firearm is equivalent to a knife for the purposes of that law. Also depending on intent could equal a vehicle.
since the round are in of itself a DD
well i am in kommiefornia, where sheet metal is considered a firearm :V
oh... disclaimer: i'm not from the US so i have different perspective by default
forgot to mention that
I'm not from the US either
Obviously all states are not made equal. New Hampshire and Maine are "Constitutional Carry." While convenient for me personally I do believe that is taking it too far. I think that firearms safety classes should be a requirement.
@I AM ERROR My right to life shouldn't be dependent on the law. The law should be dependent on my right to life.
it's fine, i mean if you understand how US does have laws against government intervention on bearing firearms...
as long as your don't think firearms should be regulated like cars, i am fine with a healthy debate, but if people like to ignore the constitution because they feel it doesn't matter in this one argument, i will resort to ignoring freedom of speech also :V
stop using lived experiences in debates ๐ ๐
firearms safety is VERY important to the point that I believe in the US it should be taught in school, but the fear is that some states would make passing the class such a hassle that it would be a loop hole to de facto ban guns
^they said no one needs to learn about gun safety, then when accidents with guns goes up, they blame the guns so they try to ban them all :V
Honestly I am all for gun education in schools
the law is (should be) there to make sure no one infringes on the rights of others, not to protect YOU
The law should not get in the way of my fundamental ability to defend myself or those around me
I personally own a Mossberg M500A1 and a Sig Sauer 1911 full size. Based on a little bit of personal experience I do not believe in "Constitutional Carry" I think Concealed Carry should be "Shall Issue" and all States should reciprocate and accept other CC permits.
There can be examination to make sure my claim is honest
As far as Open Carry, you do you.
