re: #440 dangerman
What IS missing is any discussion that rights even the 2A come with responsibilities
This.
That is why I suggested some time ago that we bring back the militia concept that is actually part of the 18th century understanding of firearms ownership (IE it was a civic responsibility)
You want to own a gun? Great. You give 8 hours community service every month to law enforcement, local hospital or other approved civic org. Failure to meet service demands over three months mean you turn your weapons in to authorities until you catch up. Also…character will be used in determining your ability to own guns (just like it was in some of the colonies)
