But a person can still illegally obtain such a gun within the state, or get one from another state--then simply go into the state that "bans" the item.

After a state "bans" an object it does NOT stop every person coming into the state to check their belongings for possession of the "banned" object.

So a person, very easily in some cases, can still bring a "banned" object into a state where it is illegal. In the instant case, Woodson probably just drove up Virginia.

Not a big feat, really.

Why thank you for the explanation, Professor Hank, I guess no one could've figure that out. Maybe you should go teach that to the antis who tell us these bans make us safer.

Or, here's an idea, why doesn't NJ close its borders and require a passport to enter, and search every person and vehicle that crosses the state line. After all, you want the ban to be effective, doncha? It's just a little bit of liberty, ya know, you're still free to travel, you just have to wait a few minutes for thenice man to make sure you didn't smuggle any of those evil guns from that awful place Virginia.
Come on guys, even I recognize tongue-in-cheek when I see it.
He was pointing out the stupidity of trying to eliminate the illegal use of a weapon by banning it's possession.

But wait, didn't NJ ban .50 calibre weapons in their state, how did he manage to get one in???

Well excuuuuuuuuussssssse me, Hankie ol pal. I had assumed, given your superior intelligence, that you were wise enough to recognize sarcasm when you see it. Sometimes such an indication might be needed, but to not recognize Comrade's comment as sarcasm without an overt cue would be to assume he was stupid.

Well, you know the saying about "ass - u - me".

Hey yata yata swing. :dude:

Rut-roh. I have maps (military-grade maps!) of several U.S. military facilities, both CONUS and overseas. I have guns and ammo. I even have cameras and telephoto lenses.

:shock::shock::shock:

Am I off the hook because those maps were issued to me by the military facilities they portray?

If not, I better burn 'em quick. It's a good thing I can't download and print satellite views that are far more current....

A Grenade Launcher IS a Flare Launcher. The only difference is if you have a Grenade or a Flare in it....

37mm.com

You can call it by whatever name gives you the most gun-hating sensationalism...

Fortunately THAT 'armor' is made to explode when it comes in contact with anything it was meant to protect it's wearer from. A single round would take out the whole lot.

'Retard Armor' presumes it was out of incompetence. But it is quite deliberate and known.

I mean it was purposely designed by Democrats to do that.

Like everything else they do, the whole plan is to have it do the opposite of it's name and advertising; doing as much damage to absolutely everything they can in the name of saving us from it. Thus, requiring more of their 'help' when it all goes horribly wrong, exactly as planned.

Besides, I would NEVER insult a Retarded Person by using that word in the same sentence with "Democrat," or any of it's derivatives.
