All-purpose gun legislation thread

Stand your ground laws are an easy license to kill and used for intimidation along with open carry. She’s right.

Good, fuck them all.

Missouri, the Shoot Me state.

Residents could be eligible for a tax credit equal to 75 percent of the cost of the gun under the bill, KFVS reported.

Socialism is bad. Now here is our bill dictating what you must buy.

Edit: Also I like how it specifies the brand. So most people who own similar rifles would have to buy another one. Wonder how much Armalite paid for that? Dude is begging to be investigated, imo.

Seriously, that’s insane. You KNOW that guy is getting money from Armalite.

While the bill is idiotic, it appears from my reading of the article and the Wikipedia page for the AR-15 that the bill is referring to the design and does not require purchase from a specific manufacturer. Apparently, the most common manufacturer of that design, today, is actually Colt but that there are a large number of other manufacturers, as well. It’s also apparently the most common military-style semi-automatic rifle in the US.

Now, that doesn’t mean the dude didn’t get a ton of money from Colt, for example.

I could be wrong as I have very little personal knowledge about the AR-15.

Recall that the main argument the GO PRO and against the ACA (besides SOCIALISM) was that it was wondering for the government to mandate that people buy something.

I’d rather there be a GO PRO party.

That’s true; and the funniest thing about that is that one of the earliest acts of Congress - passed by the founding fathers - was a requirement that every citizen buy weapons.

Well if the government can FORCE YOU to buy health insurance, then why can’t it FORCE YOU to buy a gun?!

I’m just gonna go with the Google autocorrect from now on.

I mean, i clearly already do, but from now on, it’s on purpose.

Oh, I see Timex anticipated me. Need more training!

Fuck my shitty-ass state.

Wow…without training, without permit, without background check…also without bullets? That’s the only way that bill could possibly come across as sane.

Don’t they realize that any black Ohio residents will also be able to carry a gun like this? Oh wait…law-abiding is code for white in Ohio, isn’t it?

Almost half of Ohio House Republicans are pushing for passage of a bill that would allow all law-abiding Ohioans to carry a concealed weapon without obtaining a permit — a measure that GOP Gov. Mike DeWine supports.

And wtf is this? If you don’t inform a cop that you have a gun and they spot a concealed gun then aren’t they going to assume you’ll be using it on them & open fire? Hell, they do that now even if you don’t have a gun, if you’re the wrong hue.

The bill also would repeal a current requirement that concealed-carry owners notify police officers they are carrying a gun when stopped.

Outside of the liberal havens, sadly yes.

Aww shucks, someone’s blood has to water the gun tree of freedom though.

Thoughts and prayers.

Those poor kids. Both the little girl and her brother. He’s only 4. He can’t possibly understand the magnitude of what he’s done. And when he finally gets old enough to do so, he’ll have to live with it the rest of his life.

The mother should be in jail.
