The Second Amendment may be the dumbest statute still standing in the modern era.

Hey, I've found a statement of yours with which I couldn't agree more strongly...
Yeah, the fact that a guy who is probably a Nazi sympathizer is proclaiming the need for guns to be taken away from civilians doesn't really help your argument.

Thinking the 2nd amendment is crazy doesn't equate wanting to take all guns away. Although even the wording "take guns away" is an oddly American sentiment.

So you're one of those "the Nazis took guns away!!" people?

Gun nuts are so cute when they think that they can resist a tyrannical government with their rifles.

If only Heller would have been ruled the other way, we were only one vote away from a void 2nd amendment. I dream of that America.

People in DC are killing each other with guns! What would the solution be? More guns!

(Obviously, the ruling is sound, but I've never understood the obsession with guns)

If only Heller would have been ruled the other way, we were only one vote away from a void 2nd amendment. I dream of that America.

Such a ruling would have made a mockery of the Constitution, and I'm glad it didn't go that way. I'd like to see the 2nd Amendment rolled back myself, but I don't support rulings that are founded in opinion and not constitutional law- pro-life or pro-choice; I think we can all agree the ruling in Roe v. Wade was essentially constitutionally baseless, for example.

I would love to hear why Franzl is a nazi sympathizer. I mean it's not for the usual retarded reason you think so?

This is not a positive step at all.  DC is a crowded city swarming with cops, it's insane to carry a gun for self-defense.  Maybe a few people will walk around strapped because they're scared of black people or whatever.  But, mostly this will have no effect on law-abiding citizens. 

The actual problem could for the police.  Imagine they've searched a suspect and they find an illegal gun.  He can claim it's a legal gun and perhaps they'll be forced to allow someone to go free and murder someone.  It could also interfere with police using an illegal gun charge to get someone off the streets so they can obtain warrants or prevent imminent violence.

Er I doubt police use the honor system to determine if a gun is legally held or not.

Now the DC police is ordering its officers not to arrest any residents with legally registered handguns. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/jul/28/dc-police-chief-orders-officers-not-arrest-legal-g/

Care to explain that teensy bit of hyperbole?
