Obama throws tantrum!* Proud Day for Washington
- Thread starter dmnEPC
- Start date
It's no secret that temporal relevancy fuels the fire of many a political debate. I don't necessarily think this is a bad thing considering how shitty and apathetic the vast majority of Americans are. I'd rather people argue about gun control than motherfucking lady gaga or something equally meaningless.
How about this then: Why does the .gov need to know (and collect $$) if I decide to pass on my VEHICLE to my children?
How about this then: Why do i become a criminal for borrowing a friends VEHICLE w/o being properly licensed myself?
I'm admittedly ill-informed about this topic so I'll refrain from answering.
Why is it bad to add additional impositions to law abiding citizens? You aren't taking anything away from them, just making it a little more challenging to acquire something in the interest of increasing safety all around. It would be no different than making the driving test harder.

Is this not exactly what I've repeatedly said I think we need more of? More thorough safety and operational training and licensing processes for an objectively violent and dangerous piece of property?
There's a reason Americans don't want registration/universal background checks...
England and Australia BOTH Had confiscation of firearms years after they were registered. IN the case of Australia, they stole hundreds of millions of dollars (If not in the billions of dollars) of firearms from gun owners because they decided the firearms were illegal. No ability to get permits or licensing, just theft.

It's not written in the Constitution that you have the right to own a vehicle. Driving is a privilege.
Gun ownership in America is a RIGHT.

Right but what about slavery? Or female suffrage? Pretty weak argument yo
There is a common law right to travel.
The notion of rights protected by Constitution is a delusion.
You have NO rights. The Constitution doesn't apply to anyone. It's not a binding contract. The government apes minimum compliance with it to keep the suckers believing it matters.
Guns are not objectively violent or dangerous. A gun with no one to use it poses no greater risk than almost anything else.
Guns don't kill people. People kill people. If you believe gun control is necessary, then why not knife control? Baseball bat control? Hammer control? Screwdriver control?
Agreed its none of their business what I do with my vehicle.
Again I agree you shouldn't be. Its no one's business who you borrow your property to. Unfortunately I wasn't alive to fight this battle. This same battle that provided the .gov a way to enslave its people and issue them their "papers". So they can easily identify you, so they can use anything they decide what you have done wrong against you.
Its well documented, but that was a nice diplomatic answer.
The .gov has already imposed on every part of our lives why not 1 more.

These process's lend itself to "infringe" on people's rights. Our .gov has nothing better to do than to make laws. This is what we pay them to do. They have to do something so they always pass more laws. There is no arguing that "laws" dont limit someones right to do(or have) something. Over time the qualifications get tighter and tighter. And sooner or later you will wake up and find they have "regulated" all of your freedoms away. All in the name of "progress"
The 2nd amendment is the one "right" that protects the rest of the Bill of Rights and the Constitution. When the .gov fears its people you have democracy. When the people fear the .gov you have Tyranny.
I really hope you don't believe this stuff because everyone tells me you're really intelligent.
I'm sorry. I have been too distracted by Sandy Hook and the Boston tragedies to have noticed this. Must be coincidence.
edit:
Just like he threatened to veto NDAA right before he signed it. You should open a new thread. This is just as serious and dangerous to the people and deserves its own thread.

Not in Virginia. It's state by state.
Oh really? Why did I watch the Sandy Hook victim(s) give the prelude to Obama's tantrum today? Why were several of the victims standing beside Obama as he threw the tantrum?
It's disgusting how the victims of Sandy Hook are being used as pawns for political agenda. If it's not for his agenda, then why are they there? I guess it must apply to them then..
How would've this law stopped Sandy Hook from happening? Why should the victims care? The current background checks stopped the gunman from purchasing a firearm several times. (Yet you never heard about this) He had to STEAL guns from his mom (Who obtained them legally). This law wouldn't have stopped Sandy Hook from happening. The victims are being used as political pawns.
How are the gun control laws working out in Chicago?
Will criminals have to undergo background checks for guns they buy off the street or steal from someone else? Oh, I forgot. Criminals disobey laws by definition.
FWIW, driving is not a privilege. Black's Law dictionary:
http://thelawdictionary.org/privilege/
Everyone can drive if they pass a test. That is not a privilege.

There was a time when you had to pass a test to vote.
Governments don't grant anything, least of all a privilege or a right.
