    what do you think that term does in terms of conveying powers to a government that was not given any such powers in the main body of the constitution

    That is based on what? Because you want it to be so? The truth is you have no idea.
    I can't demonstrate otherwise? Do you have any idea of the gun violence in this country? Are you serious?

    That's WAY too vague. Be more specific.

    Should there be a limit on how many assault clips I can own, and how many casings I can put in mine?

    and why?

    Guns don't affect public health in any way.

    Just because you find the idiots to vote in a poll doesn't mean that they represent the country

    no guns don't do that they're just objects.


    Listen to yourself. We're hiding behind our rights that's what they're for. To protect us from people like you it would take all the rights away from people if you had the opportunity.

    It is a stop gap between Liberty and your fascism.

    Yes. Vast majority wants to do something about the killings, while at the same time retain the right for law abiding citizens to own guns. We should not pretend the to are mutually exclusive, because they are not. Background checks, which we already have is a common sense thing to do. There is no need for blanket bans of any kind of firearms, as long as we keep them away from criminals and in sane people.

    Now you're making things up. Never said that. Not even close.
    Yes I have. You don't "get" it yet most Americans do. Not my problem.
    No, I don't understand it at all. I'm not anti gun. I hunt. I don't think what the American people want is "harassement" in any way, shape of form. It's not silly. People are dying.

    There is no burden on me to explain anything and yet I have. You don't like it and it is YOU that can't explain or have a counter argument.
    Because there isn't any that covers everything because of people like you.
    No, what has been shown is that you will make things up to suit your needs. You have no counter argument.
    Nobody is harrassing anyone. That, again is a made up scenario of your imagination.
    Yeah, like making people stop smoking indoors was harrassment and political and yet, guess what? Society was helped. Wise up.

    A nonsensical argument.
    At least you admit you're hiding because you are hiding behind a bastardization of the meaning of the amendment.

    Are conservatives ever on the correct side of anything?

    If you look at youth polling even up into gen y the numbers are even more stark especially with younger Republicans.

    The installed corrupt USSC might ignore peoples voices for as long as they can but change is inevitable.

    Everyone aside from FORCING mental health screenings are already law and adhered to by legal firearm purchasers.

    Another example of how ignorance of the law confuses the issues..

    Wait? Why are you asking that when I just said I would not be against banning assault clips. That is your answer.

    Wow, just wow. THAT is a denial of the reality of life in the U.S.
    Do you have a poll that says the opposite that isn't just gun owners.

    Believe the polls as you like, but when it comes down to the thick of it and folks are confronted with it really happening! Those numbers and percentages will be nowhere near accurate ;)

    but it's an argument which is more than you have.

    Explain how a lump of steel put you in more danger or makes you safer.
    But not in practice explain how it's bastardized tell me what they intended when they wrote the amendment

    I meant no need for additional bans

    Its a FOX poll, and many of their readers are conservative. Its in line with what gun owners have also expressed

    Then why would people be so desperate to ban firearms?

    You don't do that unless they're an obstacle for your dictatorship.

    Compared to say obesity, fatty livers, smoking, drug overdose and sitting around staring at a monitor all day? GUNS, hardly a public health issue LMFAO ;)
