Can't buy any new full auto anything. It's a machine gun and BATFE has not been registering new select fire weapons since 1986. If it wasn't made before 1986, it ain't legal.
As long as the minimum standard is no permits and no training, I'm all in.
When you end your statement with a question mark it makes me think that you feel that a Federal law is a good idea. If you are referring to the 2A as a Federal law, I wouldn't call it a Federal law.
I think your standards are totally unrealistic. It should be mandatory that any person in possession of a firearm must have been born and be alive at that particular moment.
I don't think that clones and zombies should be allowed to posses firearms, call me a birther or zombiephobe if you will but I believe very strongly about having tough standards.
"Senator Boxer's legislation would require all states that allow residents to carry concealed weapons to establish permitting processes that would include meaningful consultation with local law enforcement authorities to determine whether the permit applicant is worthy of the public trust and has shown good cause to carry a concealed firearm."
Is it just me or does it sound like Boxer is trying to do a Kalifornia style "good cause" requirement subject to LEO approval on a national scale?
And of course that was immaterial to the crime or its motivations. He didn't kill six people because he used marijuana. I'm sure he's every bit as much of a fruitloop stone sober as he is stoned.He had to lie on his purchase forms. Seems there was this question about habitual use of marijuana or something. His process was in order but his lie made it an illegal aquisition.

Requiring law enforcement commentary eliminates "Shall Issue". I am sure this is the point of the excercise. SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Domestic enemies are unfortunately all too common in Congress.
Actually, considering how the question is written, saying that he is not a user might not be a lie. The question is written in the present tense. Should you answer yes if you tried marijuana ten years ago? One year ago? One week ago? I would say that, if you are not currently stoned, an answer of no could be justified. The question would be effective if it asked, "Have you used....in the past....?" As it is worded, a user could answer no and still reasonably claim not to be lying.
I am asking that if you consider the Second Amendment to be a law, than is it a joke?
The Second Amendment is an affirmation of a fundamental right to self-defense, but focuses in on firearms as being a tool for self-defense, but generally for protecting self, and Constitution.
"Senator Boxer said, "The tragic events in Tucson earlier this month are a reminder of why we need common-sense gun laws.
This measure will establish reasonable permitting standards for Americans who wish to carry concealed firearms.
According to a recent poll, more than 60 percent of respondents believe there should be a reasonable permitting process for those who wish to carry concealed firearms."
