wtnhunt Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Re: Gun confiscation has started in Canada Dont know how I overlooked this thread. Sluggo, wake up buddy. Check out what has happened in other parts of the world. There are people in our government, some of whom you seem to show support for who would like nothing better than for us law abiding citizens to have no guns at all. It is a shame to see what has happened in Canada. To say it could not also happen here would be pretty naive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slugshooter Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Re: Gun confiscation has started in Canada [ QUOTE ] And what you believe is WRONG. The Second Ammendment is not a part of the "Bill of Privileges". [/ QUOTE ] But I'm still entitled to believe that still aren't I? Drinking alcohol is a right, but not everyone can do it can they? [ QUOTE ] And it already is regulated to the point of being strangulated. "Any old joe" must pass the instant check every time he attempts to purchase a firearm. I don't have a problem with that. Felons, alcoholics, druggies, illegal aliens, mental patients and people whose citizenship is not "in good standing" should not enjoy the same rights as a law-abiding citizen. [/ QUOTE ] You know those little boxes you have to write yes or no on, on the 4473, the ones that ask if you use drugs or smoke pot or whatever, well, what if I am a raging pothead who gets stoked every night and decide to hold up a liquor store, I go in there, lie on the form, I don't have a record, so legally I can buy a gun, even though I am not a law abiding citizen and go hold up a store or shoot someone. I was a law abiding citizen, according to the form and the fact I don't have a record, so my right to buy a firearm was fulfilled even though I am a raging idiot pothead. Just because you are a criminal doesn't mean you have a record, just means you haven't been caught yet and can still legally buy a gun. [ QUOTE ] So you wanna regulate everyone as "guilty until proven innocent"??????? [/ QUOTE ] Happens every day doesn't it, I don't speed, but because some idiots do I have to drive the speed limit, I rarely drink and never while driving, but I have to stop at alcohol checkpoints to see if I am drunk. I don't poach and I follow game laws, but I still have to give the warden my license when he asks for it [ QUOTE ] And the Bill of Rights is not a god given UN-alienable right, our UN-alienable rights... [/ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] That's "inalienable", by the way. [/ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Nope, unalienable, by the way, check it out, alienable meaning not able to be sold or transferred and the unalienable meaning not able to be sold or transferred. Of course, if it is inalienable, you might want to discuss it with Thomas Jefferson. [/ QUOTE ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParrotHead Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Re: Gun confiscation has started in Canada You guys just don't get it...we have no rights given to us by God, it's all been given to us by the government! That's why your guns will soon be taken away just as the nativity scenes that depict the baby Jesus are being taken away. This country is very quickly going to **** and it's the people that believe that God should be taken out of the equasion that are at the wheel.

wtnhunt Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Re: Gun confiscation has started in Canada PH makes a great point here. Our rights have been created and taken by man. [ QUOTE ] Did you know that the founder of the ACLU was/is (not sure if he's still alive) an avowed communist? [/ QUOTE ] aclu is an evil organization! They do not seek to stand up for the rights of the American people. They are anti everything that America has stood for since the time it came to be.
