And for the record, you fuckers, I didn't blow anything up yesterday.

You're presuming *we* already don't....YellowSnow said:
Well, in 1775 , Sled, all long guns were "military grade". If we follow you're logic then regular citizen patriots should be allowed to own M-60's, grenade launchers, etc, etc.Sledog said:

@Swaye I just matched with her. We already set up a date for tomorrow. I wouldn't be surprised if we have explosive chemistry.

About a quarter million do own such things. There have been two crimes committed with legal machine guns since the inception of there registration and government control. Both were domestic violence IIRC.YellowSnow said:

That is indeed what the founders meant in that the people should be armed similarly. Funny how people think there freedom of speech is protected on here but by your standard it's only protected when spoken in public or produced by pen or single plate printing press.
The bill of rights says what it says and means what it says. It is not a living breathing document. Most of those signing it were carrying guns and always had arms at hand. -

Sled, none of us can say with certainty what the founder meant on guns. If they had specific intentions they would have been far more explicit, but instead they left it pretty vague- i.e., "well regulated" and "shall not be infringed" are kind of contradictory are they not? Firearm technology was basically unchanged in the 100 years before Lexington Green (e.g., "brown bess" was adopted in the late 1600's). It's impossible for us to sit here 228 years later after the Bill of Rights became law and guess how they would have felt about guns in 2019. And whether you like it or not, it is a "living, breathing" document, be it by Constitutional Amendment, or by the fact that the courts have evolved over time in how the interpret the darned thing. Maybe this is why they wanted an independent judiciary in the first place.Sledog said:

All that being said, I don't care about your guns and am not looking to grab them. -
I get ya. Law abiding gun owners aren't the problem and the inanimate object is not the problem. The problem is and always will be people. One needs to be able to deal with evil people and evil governments!YellowSnow said:

Yes, for the most part "law abiding" gun owners aren't the problem. It's criminals and gun owners who were law abiding until they weren't. We aren't banning hand guns in the country - which are most of the gun deaths - so the gun control debate is just a waste and time and energy.Sledog said:
