Actually, yes, I can buy whatever is offered for sale
I can pass any background check, or at least have so far, includimg that Secret Clearance thing back in the Navy, so I can buy what most folks can walk into the store and buy, under the same laws.
No, I can not knowingly sell firearms to certain people.
Knowingly being the key word there
Yes, one can buy some obsolete military vehicles and aircraft that have been de-weaponized.
That is not anything like buying the weapon, and is not the point.
I do not want your guns.
I do want all of everyone's rights to receive the same attention and defense and support that is lavished on guns and the second amendment.
Where is the outrage for "law and order" violations of the 4th like sobriety checkpoints and random drug testing? Yes, I know that the conservative appointed judges have ruled that the public safety trumps the individuals' rights. Really? A citizen can be stopped, compelled to give evidence, detained and possibly arrested with out any hint of probable cause? And "conservatives" support this in the name of "law and order" and "feeling safe"?
That is just plain Orwellian.
Conservatives in general and the NRA have plum gone off the reservation from the responsible and rational positions held by their heroes and predecessors just a few years ago.
All the while, They proclaim that the mentally ill, or medicated, or stressed, or this one and that one should not have access to guns - and simultaneously oppose any sensible effective improvements in the laws that would facilitate the very thing that they say is needed.
That is just plain stupid.
I said facilitate, not acheive perfection.
That ain't happening.
Comservatives clamor for the government to "protect them", and "keep them safe" from every.damn.thing. Including "those people"
And then cry when government's' attempt to do so to do affect their little world.
That is just plain hypocritical.
I personally recognize that if we choose to have some freedoms, we will also have some risk. BFD
Live with it.
Stop being afraid of life.
I'm not.
BTW, it was Dell deflecting, and I am not a Flight Attendant. I have however known a great many of them who were very intelligent people, successful business owners, no-**** real-life War Heroes, and many other things deserving of great respect, and able to engage in a more coherent and reasoned discussion on any subject than you have ever demonstrated on this forum.
Anyway, All honest work is honorable, and deserving of respect.
Unless one is an insecure ass, and must raise himself up by tearing others down for such superficial reasons, I guess.
