Still confused about the details. Supposedly this woman rammed a barricade, but pictures of her car afterwards show a front end in pristine condition. Did she ram it in reverse?

    If you have been convicted of a violent crime, if you are a habitual drug offender, if you suffer with certain mental illnesses, if you are a 'anti-gun' Democrat like Feinstein, then you are not permitted to own or possess a weapon.
    If you do so illegally, then you go to prison for five years.
    If you do so during the commission of a crime, then your prison term beyond the other crime is an additional twenty five years.

    A while back we had a "lively" discussion on gun control and the 2nd amendment. Why are we going over these issues again? Has anything changed?

    I thought the problem was solved on December 15, 1791. That is the date the Bill of Rights was ratified.

    And slavery was legal then.  Still in favour of that?  Do you live in 1791?

    Slave states also had laws that prohibited blacks from owning or using guns. Why was that? They knew that an armed slave was no longer a slave. The reason the founders of this Nation provided for the ownership of guns by the populace was because they knew that unarmed citizens would be at the mercy of a tyrannical government.

    It is human nature that those in power will seek to increase their power in all ways possible. That innate desire is offset by the checks and balances provided by our Constitution. One of those checks is the second amendment.

    Your argument leaves out any civilizing factor in society.  It assumes that people are still basically neanderthal.

    [quote]Your argument leaves out any civilizing factor in society.  It assumes that people are still basically neanderthal.  [/quote]Proof of power corrupting is rampant throughout history-and so it is the government that should be considered inclined to being uncivil once the law abiding citizen is disarmed.
    But, Soupie; the positions of those who oppose the Second Amendment leaves out civilizing factors in society and assumes people are basically neanderthals. That law abiding citizens are not responsible-shall we say not evolved sufficiently-to be trusted with firearms. It assumes that only those in power-those who are subject to the temptation of corruption-should be trusted with firearms.

    [quote][quote]  Video of police car striking pop up barrier, causing the horrendous damage to it, seen in many pictures. Many stories implied the woman caused this damage by striking the vehicle herself.
