Quote:It is a lot easier for someone who is homicidal to murder with a gun than a knife. A hell of a lot easier, but then we have to ask ourselves; does that mean we should ban all guns to prevent this, which is where we are going with this issue. Of the anti-gunner's and sympathizers only 1% of that group would want that.
Quote:A good example is the Virginia Tech shooting. The maniac used a .22 and a 9mm rifle.
Quote:This board usually debates that balance point. Of which I am for making illegal fully automatic weapons, weapons like the M249 and B240 machine-guns but not semi-automatic weapons like the AR15 and civilian version of the AK-47 of which both can penetrate type 2 body-armor which is worn by most police.
Quote:I would be supportive of even a national firearms license card, that like a driver's license where you could include licenses for conceal carry, class 3 license, and of course to get the license, you would have to take a firearms safety course for the basic section. For conceal carry of course it requires an extra class, and class 3 etc. etc. This would get rid of the multiple cards and wondering if you were able to carry in this state or that. I have a Florida conceal carry and a Utah one and I have to figure out which state I am legal in or not. It would satisfy your requirements and many pro-gunners requirements.
Quote:Also understand that many pro-gunners have been burned in the past so many are against any form of gun licensing. even a national firearms card or state one. Talk to pro-gunners and find out what their concerns are, and the top one would be gun confisgation. But that is because it has already happened with gun registration and/or licensing. I have even been told that the Illinois FOID card system was designed to restrict blacks from purchasing guns. I'll have to check on it more but from what I have seen, it wouldn't be too outrageous to think Daley wouldn't think that way.
