DId the Maine shooter have the right to bear an AR-15?

[SmarterthanYou]

my life and my families life does not need protecting. We are safe.

so you have private armed security with you at all times??????

 

[SmarterthanYou]

I am not against that, but seems like it would be a conflict of absolute rights.

hyperbolic extremism, again. you should stop throwing around words and terms when you don't know the meaning of them.

He TOLD people he was considering mass murder. He went and picked his guns up from his brothers house with that intent.

Ok so who will get to decide when peoples rights should be suspended because of the words they've uttered? You?

 

[SmarterthanYou]

I am not judging him, I am simply pointing out he did not believe in liberty at all costs. His life is riddled with compromises in liberty that he made. Anyone who lives to the age of majority's life is.

you most certainly are judging the past by todays standards.

 

[Yakuda]

All gun murderers were legal gun owners. Until they weren’t.

Very good! Their rights should've suspended when they've shown that can't reasonably exercise that right. Apparently there's hope for you

 

[SmarterthanYou]

I disagree, I believe in limits, just like you do... its just a matter of degree.

the degrees that lead you to believe that limits should make others safer.......which is in direct conflict with the founders and the constitution

Where do you set the point?

 

[volsrock]

Do you think the right to bear arms is absolute?

Do Americans have any absolute rights?

I asked for a link to back up your claim ...guess u dont have one

 

[Jarod]

you most certainly are judging the past by todays standards.

You are, when you consider an AR-15 is not a musket.

 

[Jarod]

You wont answer the questions?

 

[SmarterthanYou]

Where do you set the point?

you use due process of law.........if someone appears untrustworthy in public, poses a threat to others, then you give them the hearing they deserve. After that, if proven he/she is a threat, you involuntarily commit them for treatment

Good question, we will elect people to make that call. We are a Democracy after all.

 

[SmarterthanYou]

You are, when you consider an AR-15 is not a musket.

another false equivalency. do you believe that the founders were ignorant of the advancement of technology?

 

[Jarod]

hyperbolic extremism, again. you should stop throwing around words and terms when you don't know the meaning of them.

I seem to know "absolute" better than you.

 

[SmarterthanYou]

sorry, I will not leave the final decision of my rights to elected zealots who will do anything for money

 

[SmarterthanYou]

I seem to know "absolute" better than you.

you clearly do not.

 

[Jarod]

so you have private armed security with you at all times??????

No, but never once been threatened. Except by a cop, but I handled that.

 

[SmarterthanYou]

No, but never once been threatened. Except by a cop, but I handled that.

that's not safety, that's living in ignorance.

 

[domer76]

false information is not being schooled.


and you've never answered the question 'is there a right to drive a vehicle'.............your lack of cognitive abilities has now been exposed...........again.

No need to answer that stupid fucking question. Especially for you, who thinks vehicles cannot be necessary in modern societies.

The stupidity of those four words will never be matched on this forum. Ever.

this is you, avoiding reality so you don't have to admit you're wrong.
