Human seem to have some propensity for putting themselves into dangerous situations with a disregard for bodily consequences.

Ah yes.

read the highlighted part, what you are saying is wrong

Not about hunting.

why is a 17 year old totally omitted?

Because it's about hunting. If it's omitted, it is therefore in compliance with the idea of hunting.

29.304(3)(b) Restrictions on possession or control of a firearm. No person 14 years of age or older but under 16 years of age may have in his or her possession or control any firearm unless....

>Hunting<

no mention whatsoever about a 17yr old

What in the world has happened? We had GUN Club in high school where you brought your rifle to school. Not one person ever misbehave with their rifles to hurt or kill anyone. WTH is wrong today?

29.304  Restrictions on hunting and use of firearms by persons under 16 years of age.

think logically for a moment, why are 17yr olds totally omitted?

@Saxson Polarization and subversion

Because they're not as regulated when it comes to hunting?

you are wrong sorry

Because this statute is literally talking about hunting?

hunting and? then what does it say

I mean, it seems to me that I'm right according to a judge (twice), a DA, a prosecutor, and more!

use of firearms

and illocutionary intent of law, @Maw

beyond even possession it says control

No, the statute it was linked from is entirely based in the idea of minors in possession of firearms.

its the law here sorry if u dont like it

This is not the statute you read when you're looking at possession of weapons in a general sense.

So now you are a judge, @Ghostdog ???

its well established law here, find a ruling on it if u can, without other circumstances

"without other circumstances"

The level of mental pretzels here is ridiculous.

like someone declared not mentally competent yes

No rulings exist without circumstance. Its why you have judges.

@Ghostdog Does your state have a law prohibiting anyone below 18 to be in possession of a firearm?

does such a law exist?

its one of the reasons you can be tried as an adult at 17 here, it even states it again within the statute

the law only allows rifles and shotguns, not all weapons
