If we could just agree on "Common Sense" Gun Regulations......or

"If it would save just one child isn't it worth trying?"

Yes, I'm pissed. Allow me to enlighten you.......Here's the deal. Now lean in close......

We already DID that!

We already have compromised on "bipartisan" and "common sense" gun regulations.

Here is a fun short list from Wikipedia:

• National Firearms Act ("NFA") (1934): Taxes the manufacture and transfer of, and mandates the registration of Title II weapons such as machine guns, short-barreled rifles and shotguns, heavy weapons, explosive ordnance, silencers, and disguised or improvised firearms.

• Federal Firearms Act of 1938 ("FFA"): Requires that gun manufacturers, importers, and persons in the business of selling firearms have a Federal Firearms License (FFL). Prohibits the transfer of firearms to certain classes of persons, such as convicted felons.

• Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 (1968): Prohibited interstate trade in handguns, increased the minimum age to 21 for buying handguns.

• Gun Control Act of 1968 ("GCA"): Focuses primarily on regulating interstate commerce in firearms by generally prohibiting interstate firearms transfers except among licensed manufacturers, dealers and importers.

• Firearm Owners Protection Act ("FOPA") (1986): Revised and partially repealed the Gun Control Act of 1968. Prohibited the sale to civilians of automatic firearms manufactured after the date of the law's passage. Required ATF approval of transfers of automatic firearms.

• Undetectable Firearms Act (1988): Effectively criminalizes, with a few exceptions, the manufacture, importation, sale, shipment, delivery, possession, transfer, or receipt of firearms with less than 3.7 oz of metal content.

• Gun-Free School Zones Act (1990): Prohibits unauthorized individuals from knowingly possessing a firearm at a place that the individual knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is a school zone.

• Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act (1993): Requires background checks on most firearm purchasers, depending on seller and venue.

• Federal Assault Weapons Ban (1994–2004): Banned semiautomatics that looked like assault weapons and large capacity ammunition feeding devices. The law expired in 2004.

So for 84 years now we have been taxing, regulating, monitoring, restricting......etc.....

Infringing, as it were......

And what do we get for all our good faith compromise?

Those who choose to exercise whats left of our right to bear arms get called...

• Child Killers
• Gun Nuts
• Wanna-Be Soldiers
• Seditionists
• Rednecks
• Extremists
• Vigilantes
• Troublemakers
• Anti-Authority
• Anti-Establishment

Then we get MORE regulations...MORE monitoring...MORE restricting...MORE infringing...

And You Wonder Why We Are Pissed?

Take ALL of your gun laws and regulations and infringements and shove them straight up your ass.

Your contract with us is Null/Void.

These compromises we agreed to are hereby rescinded.

---

We are reverting to the Original Wording of the Second Amendment. Period.

If you don't like it PISS OFF.

Go pass a Constitutional amendment or shut up.

Interesting side note:
The NRA has been instrumental in lobbying for and passing every single one of the illegal laws mentioned above.

The NRA is NOT a friend of freedom
