the customers the NRA doesnt want to buy guns

Well, surprised the NRA isn't lobbying to change that. Why shouldn't minors be able to defend themselves?

What's a lawful activity? walking home from the store seems lawful.
there are alot of laws that restrict or deny rights to minors, gun laws being some of them. which gun laws would you like to see repealed to allow minors to defend themselves?
 
so you don't allow black children to have a gun to defend themselves but you allow domestic violence perps to have one so they can hunt black kids in the dark?

What age would like you to see people legally able to carry guns?
 
Really? Illinois Law STATEWIDE requires:



The purpose of the Apprentice License Program shall be to extend limited hunting privileges, in lieu of obtaining a valid hunting license, to persons interested in learning about hunting sports.

Provides that an Apprentice Hunter License may be issued to a person of any age.

Youth under the age of 18 years old must be supervised by a validly licensed resident or nonresident parent, guardian, or grandparent.

Provides that a person with an Apprentice Hunter License who is 18 years of age or older must be supervised by a validly licensed resident or nonresident hunter who is 21 years of age or older.
The Apprentice License shall be a one-time, non-renewable license that shall expire on March 31st of the following year.

when did that change then? because from 1979 to 1984 I was legally able to do what I said.
 
simply not true. I was able to carry a rifle/shotgun while hunting in Illinois without a parent present and under the age of 17, though parents were required to sign for consent to get an FOID card and a hunting license.

In Oklahoma, up until '82 when I turned 16, I was able to carry long guns hunting by myself...and did quite often. I just needed permission from my parents.

Yes, I carried my .22 rifle to school on the bus on Fridays a lot of the time so I could have it when I rode the bus on to my friend's house to spend the weekend. Then when I was old enough to drive I had the rack in the window of my Ford Courier pickup, guns in it, doors unlocked, windows open ... all day at school.
 
so its illegal for a child to hold their parents gun in florida?

NO..

They must have a Valid Junior Hunting license and be under Parental Supervision.

I am sure someone posted this but yall have way to many post to check each one , but according to Florida stats Blacks use the Stand your Ground law a 1/3 of all cases in Florida

http://dailycaller.com/2013/07/16/bl...rtionate-rate/

I think it was Howey who posted a good article refuting that stand your ground laws help black people more than white people; it had to do with when you look at the victims, if the victim was black or hispanic, then SYG laws were said to apply a lot more often than if the victim was white. Maybe he'll post the link again. Think it was him...
