I am a constitutionalist and educated in matters of various aspects of the law, both academically and professionally.More than familiar with legislative historical intent, purpose and application of the laws application.
I thought all you whack job, Trumpers were pro law enforcement. Oh, except the ones at the Capital. I know gun nuts all have fantasies about rescuing a woman from a motorcycle gang or saving the country from tyranny, but that’s not gonna happen. More likely you’ll get depressed after a divorce or losing your job and you’ll take your gun and kill a bunch of people, perhaps your boss and some co-workers or you will simply commit suicide. That’s much more likely. Half of all gun deaths each year are suicides - about 24,000.
"Of course, of course. You know what this country needs is to hear the opinions of more retired baby boomers."
"Well I see you are retired. How did you gain all this expertise in the law and legislation?"
Have you ever read about a mass killing with a stabbing object?
Well I see you are retired. How did you gain all this expertise in the law and legislation?
Really, prior experience and personal education. That’s so interesting. What are you trying so hard not to say? You don’t have a law degree but you play a lawyer in your mind? And did you retire at such a young age because you were so financially successful?
No, you did not prove me wrong. The stabbings were not mass killings. They were mass stabbings where few victims actually died. That’s the point. You saying we shouldn’t ban assault weapons because then people would just replace the rifles with pointy objects is stupid because pointy objects aren’t nearly as effective at killing as an assault rifle.
Mass shootings are defined differently based on number of shot and killed. Not all need be killed, only shot.
This is funny, you must really be proud of that education you got in a correspondence course. Two degrees in the legal arena. So we established you are not a lawyer but you like to pretend you are one. Were you like the top paralegal at minor law firm or are you certified in arbitration?
Mass shootings are defined differently based on number of shot and killed. Not all need be killed, only shot.Wrong again! What do you think the definition of a mass shooting is and cite a credible source.
The Second Amendment reads as follows: A well regulated Militia...
Do tell.
What makes you think I haven’t read the 9th amendment?
Do you think I’m advocating banning all firearms?
Are Americans allowed to buy automatic weapons?
Thompson machine guns like the Al Capone days or a .30 caliber belt fed machine guns?
If we can ban those, and we have, why not Semi-automatic rifles with detachable magazines?
Do you have any experience with firearms?
I was a Captain in the Marines
and I own several guns.
-->@TWS1405Um, do you think because you cry ad hominem every time I mock you it some how makes your personal attacks totally different? That’s very strange. Were you enlisted in the Army? I’ve got to believe so.
And so you have no idea what the definition of a mass shooting is. It absolutely is about the number of people killed. (Not shot) You can Google it.Try the FBI definition or the CDC

It doesn't really guarantee rights though. The government doesn't provide venues for speech nor does it produce firearms for people to own.
