      @Glenn Krenz like "Shall not be infringed". In all honesty liberals claim that the second is about muzzle loaders. So if they can take things out of context, why not us, even just a little bit.
      Another example of this would be Muller. "We found no evidence that the president was culpable, but that doesn't exonerate him either".
      Well, I think Muller goes home every night and beats the crap out of his wife.... I have no evidence that he's culpable of that, but it doesn't exonerate him either...............

      @Glenn Krenz rocket launcher is not a fire arm nither is a nuke. These are not covered under 2a A grenade launcher could be considered a firearm as most used a casing with primer and gunpowder. 2a how ever covers any form of gun sword knife axe etc any 1 v 1 type weapon not mass casualty weapons that 1 single shot from can kill or injure more than 1 person under normal conditions. Even though a full auto fires dozens or even 100s of rounds 1 single round can only hit 1 target (not counting through and throughs) I would say this was what the founding fathers had in mind. I don't think anyone thinks everyone should be able to own rocket launchers with live warheads.

    Having been a long time Military and Civil Police Officer, my take on this dilemma is the major problem lies in the outlook additude that these Civilian Police Forces have towards Citizens.
    As when a Civilian Police Department erroneously contemptfully refers to Citizens as; "Civilians" there in is your major problem factor.
    As such Civilian Police Departments are assuming the defacto role of a Standing Occupying Army.
    They have forgotten they are " Civil Servants" to adhere to the US Constitution as the base of the rule of law. As well as to the adherence of the Peelian Principles of Policing.
    Instead they often act like a;"Sanding Occupation Army" of "Civil Serpents", who arrogantly view the Citizens as "Subjects"!.

      Literally what the second amendment was for, the people being able to for non government created groups (militias) to either fight the government or aid in fighting foreign or domestic threats. Allowing them access to the the very armaments that the government has access to and the only limiting factor to a person being their interest and budget. But the politicians over time were able to convince the civilians that firearms aren't needed for their safety, that the state can take care of all of it. And over time of course the state has also tried to talk the civilian population into removing other responsibilities which in turn will remove their rights and create a dependency on the state. Which even worse will eventually turn into the whole "don't bite the hand that feeds you".

      @JZ909 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To be quite blunt, the safest pistol you can buy is probably a Beretta 92FS, a gun from 1976. That thing is almost comically loaded with safety features. Contrast that with a Glock, and the myriad of guns that are functional clones: They have a drop safe, that's it. The trend in modern pistols is to make them extremely simple to operate, which means removing most of the safety features. There's a case to be made for this, people often forget things while under combat stress. A simpler gun means a smaller chance that the person forgets how to use it in the heat of the moment. However, this makes the gun less safe for routine handling.
      I don't think it's the government's business to dictate what guns you can and cannot own based on safety, especially since the risk of an unsafe design is overwhelming to yourself. However, I'm not going to argue that newer guns are safer. For the most part (especially with pistols), they're not.

      Don’t forget New Zealand’s 🇳🇿 knee jerk Firearm legality reform resulting from the Mosque mass shooting we had in 2019… Now we are no longer allowed. semi auto centre-fires, shotguns with removable mags or tubes longer than 5 shots, many many classic Antique and new Lever Actions that held over 10 rounds, think Marlin, Henry 45lc or 45 colt, 44 mag etc. Some dwindle in value from $8k down to $1200 after being permanently modified to hold less. Pistols are going to become even harder to attain. Already have to visit club 10 times a year, can’t. but one for 18mths, has to stay at and only be shot at club. 3 gun is now very different , as is 2 gun 🤨(1 now being a semi auto 22msg or 22lr instead of a .223 or 7.62x39 or in some cases 300blkout. Service rifle shoots are now 1 third the size they were! No AR 15’s etc. It’s terrible 😢 I personally had to hand back over almost $4,000 in firearms. i used them for sport, hunting, target shooting.

    This is accurate. Before I escaped from there, I went through the frustration of trying to find a handgun I wanted that was on the approved list. All handguns are unapproved by default and the manufacturers have to go through the very difficult and expensive approval process, and repeat for every single different model and version they want to sell. I think even if 1 version just has different sights than another, etc. it needs to be approved separately. Apparently this doesn't count as infringement....

    Colion, the “roster” is just the start! California now has a roster regulation that says for every one new handgun that gets on the roster, they can arbitrarily drop three models OFF the roster creating a de facto gun ban. Before long, you won’t be able to bay ANY handgun in California. There is currently a challenge to the roster (BTW, the roster was created by our current vpotus harris the tyrant when she was AG of the state) creeping its way thru the court system as being unconstitutional, but by the time there is a SCOTUS ruling, it will probably be too late.

Say "Glock 19 black" and "Glock 19 FDE" are on the roster, but if Glock took a black G19 and painted it pink, that's a different gun and has to go through the "add a whole new gun to the roster" hoopla.

Anyone moving into CA with a non-approved firearm had better leave it behind, because it's probably a felony with mandatory multiple years jail time just to have one in your possession. For example, I think the G19 gen3 is allowed, but the gen5 is not, so anywhere else in the country you can own a G19 gen5, but CA will lock you up.
