Below is a quote from the comments section of an article about a huge turnout of 8,000 at a local gun show. The readers should feel free to respond to this individual.
How many more children must die in order to satiate the right wing gun nuts?
The Second Amendment was targeted at a Militia and the world has changed – the Constitution is a relic that must also change… we’re no longer talking about muzzle-loading muskets.
It’s time for some common sense Federal gun legislation:
- No automatic or semi-automatic weapons (i.e. only manually operated actions allowed – e.g. bolt, pump or lever action)
- No external magazines or clips (these are too easily re-loaded)
- No speed strips or loaders
- No ammunition capacity greater than five rounds (give the poor deer a chance)
- No hollow-tip or +P ammunition (hollow-tips are banned by the Geneva Convention)
- No steel core ammunition (can penetrate Law Enforcement vests)
- No bi-metallic jacketed bullets (can start forest fires)
- No lead bullets (too harmful to the environment)
- No bayonet lugs
- No handgun capable of muzzle energy greater than 250 ft-lbs
- No rifle capable of muzzle energy greater than 750 ft-lbs
- No handgun with a barrel shorter than 5 inches
- No plastic or “polymer” framed firearms
- No rifle or shotgun with a barrel shorter than 18 inches
- No rifle or shotgun with a pistol style grip or retractable/folding stock
- No flash suppressors or threaded barrels
- 100% registration of all firearms (with serial number & ballistic print on file)
- A 10 business day waiting period on all firearm sales
- No concealed or open carry
- No sales of firearms or ammunition through the mail
- No sale or possession of more than 100 rounds of a particular cartridge type
- Gun locks required for firearm transport and in homes with minors under the age of 21
- Limit gun purchases to 1 per month
- A 75% sales tariff on all gun and ammunition sales
- All gun owners required to purchase mandatory liability insurance
- Federal annual permit required for all gun ownership... includes fingerprinting, photo and mental health evaluation
This would be a small step in the right direction. We must protect the children.
