Kind of like when you give a relative your car. that's not a background check as a placebo claiming to improve public safety.... right? it's to check for insurance and to collect taxes, and to provide a little income for the licensing bureau..... but I think you're hitting a real reason here.... I am wondering where to get my concealed car carry training though. That and carry permit for my house... ...

and apparently criminals can also get belt buckles and fancy holsters....we should 'control' those too I wonder, if in the end, this all just a means to collect sales tax on another form of private property sales between private citizens.

and watch the fees for an FFL transaction skyrocket clearly closing the 'private transaction allowance' is racist and elitist. If they do this, I think a new tax on yachts will be needed so the government can pay the FFL fees for the underprivileged. ...

so it has nothing to do with "gun shows" I wonder why they choose to call it that? Why is the implied lie such a popular term? ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants

Burglars Hit Home of Gun Owner ID’d by Newspaper

great....I make a standing joke that even pilots (at least all those I know) find funny - and you do that. ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants -

Except all pilots always want everyone to know they are pilots. So that's easy. And I've never really seen someone hide their home in a safe......in their home. Different physics involved there. I know that your comment is clearly a tactic to propose that everyone has ALL their property listed publicly - since, obviously, the government owns it all and people are just borrowing. i.e., there is no such thing as private property in the perfect world - per some people. ...

Burglars Hit Home of Gun Owner ID’d by Newspaper

From the article: "...a state lawmaker said it appears the burglars may have used the newspaper’s map to target the residence." “The police are doing a full investigation,” the unidentified man told NewsDay. Police said it appears the burglars targeted the homeowner’s gun safe. 1 - that a law maker "Said it appears" - that's nothing 2 - the fact that a thief targets a safe is nothing earth shattering. If was a thief and I came across a SAFE (any kind of safe, including a gun safe) I'd take some time and try to get in. That's where the valuable items are kept. no kidding I don't like the fact that a newspaper printed a list of people that own something valuable and put it out there. The analogy of printing a list of people that owned a lot of jewelry is absolutely analogous. But whether that list is directly causal to this particular robbery? I don't know or care. We can't know unless the thieves are caught and say so. However, that random speculation does open up a good discussion topic. ...

anyone - how is it assumed in the first place that the thief went to this house because of the list? all I see is a house got broke into, and a safe was screwed with (SURPRISE - a thief will muck about with a safe.) after that, a bunch of people jumping to conclusions..... ...

guns hold a lot of value - are you saying that it would be ok for the newspaper to post a list of addresses with rare coins, or expensive cars or lots of jewelry? your premise also acknowledges that criminals will get guns illegally ...

I understand your point, but we need to acknowledge that we aren't talking about affecting that 60% or that 90% you note are agreeable. We're talking about how to change the behavior of the fraction of a percent of people that are mixed up enough to be criminal. applying mass behavioral methods to the outlyers of the population is likely not to be effective on those you are trying the get to - only those that don't need it in the first place. Your DUI analogy is a good one, but we're talking about the chronic alcoholics, not the weekend drinkers. I am very glad to see a discussion about the people, not the object though. edit: Ooops, I see you do acknowledge the point... Now it's just a matter of finding agreement on what level of effectiveness we think is possible... ...

this is pretty short sighted, IMO. cautious and responsible people will behave cautiously and responsibly. Those that aren't won't - I don't think the law matters one bit in the way you are assuming.

agreed, and that includes - "it's a FACT" - "nuff said" - belittling the other poster instead of debating - talking about how they "feel" about an issue - etc etc etc but "nuff said" and "STFU" pretty much guarantees I won't even bother with the poster at all ...

Texas lawmaker wants to make federal weapons ban illegal in texas
rehmwa replied to regulator's topic in Speakers Corner
They do. the best legal action for a state to take.....

90% of jumpers are open minded.... the other 10% are regular posters here. I still find it funny how people want to take "skydivers' and act like the group is any more or less special than just any other cross section of people. It's clearly a need by some to 'feel' like they are special and, therefore, they imagine that any group they belong to must be. "I'm a skydiver, I'm better than others" "I have (this job), I'm better than others" "My skin is this (color), we're better than others" etc etc etc so, convince me that any of these are really meaningful. But if it's just a choice of hobby, or a cosmetic item, I doubt you will. but those statements do tell one a bit more about the individual that makes the claim ...

I dunno - biased social manipulation based conclusions driven by an agenda targeted at getting more funding not based on data or results but just pandering to those with the dollars? perhaps even peer reviewed?

So please explain how raising taxes solved all these problems as you claimed. He's so much more enlightened that all of the rest of us drones. Using statements like "If you would just use your brain a little bit even you could comprehend" indicate his superiority over the rest of the plebes of the world. Really, why should he even try?
