Gun control debate (merged)

Well, this is interesting...

Democrat lawmaker blasts bill blocking gun purchases with EBT cards | Fox News

A New Hampshire Democrat lawmaker is speaking out against a bill that restricts what people can buy with government entitlement funds, saying booze, tobacco, lottery tickets and even guns should be permitted.

“It’s not up to me to make that choice for people,” Horrigan told FoxNews.com. “I’m not saying that they should be allowed to use their benefits to buy up an arsenal, but they have a right to purchase guns for hunting or self-defense. If you or I have those rights, then they should as well. It’s not my place to tell them what to do.”

Is it just me or is that dude trying pretty hard for the Ben Franklin look?

Just as long as you have to pay $500 for every word you type...

I mean, if we're going to start paying significant money to exercise Rights, let's be fair about it.

Neither owning ammunition or typing are constitutionally protected rights.

Just saying.
 
then you leftist idiots could ***** about the ammo industry's "excessive profits"

Some who you undoubtedly consider leftists would argue that the thug killed in the waffle house got what was coming to him.
 
Neither owning ammunition or typing are constitutionally protected rights.

Just saying.

That'll be $5500 to invoke your 1st Amendment Right please (not counting punctuation, we're liberal about that)
 
Neither owning ammunition or typing are constitutionally protected rights.

Just saying.

That's ridiculous. A firearm requires ammunition to function therefore it is logical to conclude that owning ammunition is just as much constitutionally protected as the firearm it shoots out if

Yep he was a respectable young man alright. That's why he tried to rob a store with a weapon. People are dumb

"Was" might be the operant word. "Was" before he committed armed robbery. "Was" before he got shot dead. But I know what you're saying. There was some guy out in Cali who was victimizing an old lady with burglaries. The lady got a relative to stay with her, and he shot the two burglars dead the next time. The burglar's girlfriend said he was a good guy who was misunderstood. Same attitude.

If you can't get legislation passed, might as well use that executive authority:

Targeted? Gun sellers say 'high risk' label from feds cuts off banking options, restricts business - Washington Times

Gun retailers say the Obama administration is trying to put them out of business with regulations and investigations that bypass Congress and choke off their lines of credit, freeze their assets and prohibit online sales.

Since 2011, regulators have increased scrutiny on banks’ customers. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. in 2011 urged banks to better manage the risks of their merchant customers who employ payment processors, such as PayPal, for credit card transactions. The FDIC listed gun retailers as “high risk” along with porn stores and drug paraphernalia shops.

Colt = XXX World?

Stay classy Obama Admin.
 
It is just another new idea from people who don't know what they are doing. All it will do is make guns more expensive. Flip those people.
 
Not unexpected:

Chipotle Tells Its Customers Not To Bring Guns To Its Restaurants | MTPR

Chipotle Mexican Grill, the fast food chain, is asking its customers not to bring guns into its restaurants.

The announcement is similar to one the coffee giant Starbucks made back in September. Both companies were thrust into the middle of the national debate on guns, when gun activists brought guns into the establishments to make a point.

Out of the blue, right? No, this is the reason for the sudden change in what was a neutral policy:

You know, it's retards like this that cause all sorts of problems for law abiding citizens like most of us are. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. If you are retarded enough to carry a modern sporting rifle into a restaurant just to prove your "rights" you should know things like this are going to happen. It's not like the two were open carrying a pistol or the likes, that's an AR15 and a highly modified SKS.

Stop being ****ing retarded and stuff like this won't happen.

Who the heck open carries anyway? I wouldn't want to be in the same place as those morons.

Sounds like they are not rules (gun ban) but requests (please don't but you aren't breaking the law if you do).

Keep it concealed and no problem.
 
I have no problem with those who want to open carry. But at least keep it freaking reasonable. A pistol, sure. But those morons caused more damage to the 2A fight than they helped. How long before Bloomberg, Feinstein, Schumer, et al and their ilk get a hold of this and classify ALL gun owners as being irresponsible and ignorant as these two idiots?

I can't see any upside to a "statement" like this. None.
