I am proud of being American. I’m not proud of our countries actions, but we WILL end up with these guys jailed. It will happen

He’s a megalomaniacal egomaniac presenting with extreme narcissism

In other words hes an asshole

How the hell would this guy know? He’s not qualified to run a game of RISK much less comment on anything that really involves defense

Me Rodgers, we need you more than ever

That would explain it

Hmm. I’m 58 and I’ve written many.

I guess it just depends on what people like.

Um. You ok ? What have I said to offend you so? Did I call you a name or something?

I’m a bit confused as to why you won’t just have a civil discussion?

It has been established as I shared it earlier. .

But quite frankly in this timeline it doesn’t matter trump and his Nazi cronies will do as they please

Umm. I don’t own a modern firearm

Don’t be so antagonistic. No one’s asking for sympathy. Why so angry?

No. In my state you cannot unless you pay for the classes , fingerprinting and background checks , etc…

Do not get me wrong I am for classes , and background checks.

I don’t believe those should cost the prospective owner though.

Now if there was no cost and those were required, I wouldn’t say a word. I hope my point is a bit clearer

Miller v. US, 230 F2d 489 “The claim and exercise of a Constitutional right cannot be converted into a crime.”

Shuttlesworth v. Birmingham 394 U.S. 147 (1969). “Persons faced with an unconstitutional licensing law which purports to require a license as a prerequisite to exercise of right… may ignore the law and engage with impunity in exercise of such right.”

US Supreme Court in Hurtado v. California 110 US 516: “The state cannot diminish the rights of the people.”

Sherar v. Cullen, 481 F2d 946(1973) “… there can be no sanction or penalty imposed upon one because of his exercise of constitutional rights”

Also in Murdock: “a person cannot be compelled “to purchase, through a license fee or a license tax, the privilege freely granted by the constitution.”"

Jesus Christ what’s the matter with you! I didn’t think id see the same type of insulting children here as on reddit. What ever happened to civil discourse?

It is though. The constitution is the law and it does give supremacy to the feds. Meaning a state or municipal law gives way to federal laws when there are none.

In your state.

Removed by mod

in your state. Where I am there are requirements for everything. from buying ammo to getting separate licenses for long guns and pistols.

the weapon itself is not what I’m talking about. of course that’s taxable.

is there an Amendment that bans a tax on any right?

if not then your argument has no standing.

Point is, requiring people to pay to exercise rights is now enshrined. and we watched it happen.

here’s the issue.

There’s been a tax on the second amendment for decades. Having to pay the fees for licensing, and the classes, means there’s a cost to exercise the right. Since people with no knowledge about the subject made sure to make it as expensive as possible to enjoy a right, the psychopaths in office now have precedent.

one cannot tax one right and hand wave another. So . which do you think will fall first?

they are called collaborators. Nazi Collaborators…

Oh it’s a problem, but not THE problem, that is a statement I can agree with
