Sure, there was the attempted assassination of Reagan and the fears for Obama as the first black President, but in those cases it was a lone nutter rather than a conspiracy.
How long can Trump crash the market before an angry billionaire decides to take him out? The remaining Koch brother is already pouring money into legal challenges against Trump…
If youre in america, even as a tourist a few states allow you to buy guns because you dont need an id. That means, lets say a european goes to georgia for example, they could buy a gun and shoot trump without problem, in minecraft of course.
Bullshit - 100% fiction
Apparently never been to a Walmart.
Will need to know which states, precisely. Because I don’t think that’s how anything works. This is a pure fictional hypothetical with made-up rules.
It probably isn’t hard to buy a black market gun, though; the laws don’t seem to stop the lawbreakers. Look at Chicago. 🙄
Luigi used a ghost gun.
Some kid tried that from a rooftop already
In Australia that was the case until around 1987. No permits for rifles. Some tourist from Germany went to Australia, bought a rifle and went on a shooting spree.
As an American, the craziest thing about that story is that Australia changed their gun laws after that happened. Imagine a government taking reasonable action to save lives… Wild.
One must entertain the notion that maybe this was intentionally perpetrated to bring about those laws, disarm the general populace.
Could have been a lone gunman psycho.
Could have been a planned event, psy-op.
No, one doesn’t have to entertain any such notion. And, one speaking like a monk doesn’t make one sound mysterious or intelligent…
What you’re essentially saying is, we should let something terrible continue to happen, causing many real people (often children) to actually die, because some people are paranoid about something that isn’t happening… In reality, government’s need their civilians. Especially in late-stage capitalist societies were civilians act as value generators or cannon fodder for the ruling class. The more people they have to feed into their profit machines, the better.
There are many counter arguments to the sentiment you shared that show how silly your stance is. I won’t waste my time writing all of them because I think you’re too steeped in your own soup to consider anything that counters what you already believe.
Like all the car crashes that now require us to get a driver’s license…; can’t mow down the government if you’re trained on the rules of the road!
People can’t just use tools that impact the lives of others outside themselves in peace; smdh…
While trying to be a smartass, you are unintentionally correct. Fun fact, driver’s licenses weren’t always required to operate a vehicle. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Smdh…indeed
We now live in cages, carefully crafted by laws & legislation over time. I am never shocked or surprised when governing powers place laws on commoners, anything to put their boot on our neck, nail down our identity for verification, or most importantly extract money from our bank accounts to give to the state to be wasted.
Smdh.
Not unintentionally correct…because that was my very intentional point.
In spite of car manufacturers claiming seatbelts and air bags were unnecessary, the sheer number of resulting deaths caused us to actually do something about it. I don’t look at the lack of driver’s licenses as anything approaching a rosy past. I will never be sympathetic to the argument that a lack of common sense safety regulations which saves lives somehow grants us more freedom (other than to abdicate all of your freedoms instantaneously via early death, which overwhelmingly impacts the poor and marginalized); sorry.
FFL dealers can only sell to residents of states in which they are licensed to operate. It is unlawful for a resident of one state to sell to a resident of another state, without involving an FFL dealer licensed in the receiver’s state.
Broadly yes, and also including private sales. I will however point out that you can buy a long gun (rifle or shotgun) from an FFL dealer in a state other than your state of residence provided the item you purchase is legal in your home state. Handguns in this situation must be transferred to an FFL in your home state, however. The former you can take with you, the latter you can’t.
Has every state closed the gun show loophole yet?
Irrelevant to the issue at hand: Even private sales are prohibited between residents of different states unless the sale is conducted through an FFL dealer in the buyer’s/recipient’s state.
But to answer your question: Very few states restrict private sales beyond federal requirements.
The only viable means of being able to reliably prosecute private sales to prohibited persons is to make NICS checks available, freely and anonymously, to the general public. With such checks readily and freely available, sellers cannot reasonably argue that they “didn’t know” someone was a prohibited buyer. With those checks available, “I didn’t know” is no longer exculpatory evidence. With those checks available, you can reasonably know their status; you should know their status; your failure to check is evidence of criminal negligence.
But every time “Public Access to NICS” has been proposed in the past 20+ years, Democratic leadership stops it, because it conflicts with their “no guns for anyone” ideology.
Wrong
