Gun rights advocates?

Does it not bother you that any terrorist can fly into the country and purchase whatever they want at a gun show?

Update:

Hey folks, most terrorists don't wear a name tag that says they are a terrorist. Some are sleepers waiti ng for their chance to kill. Anybody can buy a gun at a show, online or out of someones trunk.

Make penalties for not checking their history stiff. That goes for the people who purchase guns for criminals too.

Update 2:

I've seen video of guys buying guns at a show without showing anything.

How about online?

Terrorists can buy guns in the USA. Fact!

    a million. Ever think of that it somewhat is the reason people bypass to shooting stages and objective prepare? i don't understand of all people that has a gun and hasn't had some sort of educating. 2. You propose the same drunk that fairly recollects his very own call? If somebody is drunk adequate to get right into a bar combat, then opportunities are high he is going to be too drunk to undergo in suggestions he has a gun, pull it out and hearth it in the past all people realizes what's occurring and/or protection overpowers him. additionally, many bars do no longer enable weapons on the premises hence. So this argument is improper from the initiating. Violent all of us is going to be violent without or with weapon. those people commonly 3. As became already reported: a device gun isn't comparable to an attack rifle. And the assumption at the back of it somewhat is that there should not be a gun that the government has that a qualified civilian shouldn't even have get entry to to. i'm no longer saying I do or do no longer consider this, yet I understand why all of us is for them. 4. WRG hit the nail on the pinnacle. The shape became written over 220 years in the past. there's a lot with regard to the country right this moment that won't comparable to that factor. It isn't smart to maintain changing the wording on a checklist inclusive of that each and each single time a clean invention includes easy. It additionally say would not actual say that we could have an Air rigidity because of the fact planes hadn't been invented yet. The Framers easily did no longer intend to avert using new technologies interior the U.S. and the very acceptable court has, numerous situations, made it very clean that many of the checklist is open to interpretation as our subculture and ideologies evolve.

    How do you figure that? You need to be a resident of the state your currently in for handguns or a verifiable resident of a US state for long guns. You also need to pass the NICS check. I've also never seen a face to face sale where someone would just hand over a gun to some strange foreigner. Propaganda at it's best. Also do you thing some out of country terrorist is going to just fly back with a gun....uh NO! Buying online requires a federal dealer on the receiving end. Do you think they just ship guns to your house? lol

    If your gonna be a gun basher, AT LEAST learn how stuff works so you don't make AS MUCH of an idiot out of yourself

    If your assumption is correct what really bothers me is that a terrorist can gain access to the country! Maybe instead of being so politically correct, we need to call a preverbal spade a spade and keep the scum bag terrorist out of the good ol USA. Oh and by the way, if I came face to face with said terrorist I would sure rather have a gun and not need it as opposed to needing one and not having it!

    What do you think ???

    They don't have to go to a gun show. All they have to do is call Holder and tell them they want some more of those Fast and Furious deals. You ever been to a gun show? Didn't think so.

    Does it not bother you that when the government goes rogue (it already it headed in that direction) people will have nothing except their hands and stones to fight back?

    Guns in the hands of the people are a guarantee that the government will never revolt against the nation - there is a price of course, crazy people ocassionally kill innocents, but this number is in the hundreds and thousands. A theocracy (like the one we have in my country) kills that number of people in a month

    there are limits to who can buy a gun and what are acceptable needs to own a gun

    but those do not really keep everyone from owning one nor do the laws always work

    Wouldn't stopping that terrorist from flying in or crossing the border prevent that on the first place?

    does it not bother you that a law abiding citizen is given grief for wanting to buy a gun to protect his family?? i'm pretty sure the number of law abiding citizen gun owners out weigh the number of terrorists trying to buy a gun. you are an idiot liberal who takes the minority of something and blows it out of proportion.

    Well, even if guns are banned a terrorist or anyone for that matter could still get a gun if they wanted to get it.

    My opinion: people have the right to have a gun in their home for self protection. But like most other rights, this comes with limitations. I support an assault weapon ban, a large capacity clip ban, etc.

    Source(s): No, I am not a gun rights activist. I am a gun control activist... I just wanted to put my opinion on here.
