I agree. From what I have read and heard, he's going to go after the gun shows first(which I think the laws are pretty relaxed). He also may limit any gun in excess of 3 shot capacity, shotguns will have a permanent plug in them. What the hell???

My idea of gun control is that everyone who leaves a gun show that purchased a gun gets a gov. issued safe to keep the criminals away from them when they brake in. You should pass a background check and pay cash, no credit.
1. The power and responsibility is given back to the people where it belongs.
2. Incentive to put $ into the economy and being responsible doing it.

Marx's statement is interesting in the fact that it is envy and greed that has put this country in the position it's in now. The owners of capital being greedy for more $ and the working class being envious over what thier neighbor has.
Lets all remember the minibike owners Tenth Commandment: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbors CT.

EZ50,
I agree 100%. It's not the 99% of gun owners we have to worry about, it's the other 1% crackheads, criminals, rapists, etal. Very good post!

WORDS TO REMEMBER
​
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
Ronald Reagan​

I could go on trading profound quotes from past presidents, Sigmund Freud, Jeremy Bentham, Adam Smith, Friedrich Nietzsche, Robert Heinlein, Monty Python, et al but this thread has grown too heavy already. So, here's one to cap-off the first full week of `09:
