Sikh community calls for gun reforms

[calamity]

Still not able to comprehend "shall not be infringed" I see. Or is it your inability to comprehend that "limit" and "restrict" are synonymous with "infringe?"

You missed a lot, like: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State..."

What makes you think any of those people are not US citizens?

Would you use the same language if they didn't look the way they do?

Are you questioning the 19 year old volleyball player's citizenship?

I personally don't care whether they are a US citizen or not. As long as they are not a convicted felon, they can carry as many firearms as the like, or none at all. Unlike you, I don't presume to determine the needs of others.

All militias are well-regulated by definition. It also has no bearing on the people's right to keep and bear arms. I have not qualified for either the federal or State militia in 22 years, but I still have the individual right to keep and bear arms.

You have to be an able-bodied male between the ages of 17 and 45, or a female member of the National Guard, to be qualified to be in the organized federal militia. The same is also true to be qualified to be in the Alaska State Defense Force (the State militia).

You are clearly unaware of why the prefatory clause was added to the Second Amendment. Under Article I, Section 8, Clause 15 of the US Constitution Congress has the authority to call forth the federal militia. The Anti-Federalists feared that the Federalists would use that authority to create a monopoly on militias and prevent the sovereign States from forming their own State militias.

The prefatory clause of the Second Amendment ensures that all 50 States have the same constitutional authority to establish and call forth their State militias, as Congress has with the federal militia.

Nope. The "well-regulated" part proves that we can regulate firearms and still remain within the framework of the Second Amendment.

Only those who follow the doctrine of the anti-American leftist filth adopt such utter stupidity. The Supreme Court and every rational individual says you are wrong.

They can't carry anything. They are dead.

Another ally joins the gun control movement. And, since they are brown-skinned peoples wearing turbans, I expect them to receive much hate from the racist element within the pro-gun crowd.

Indianapolis Sikh community calls for gun reforms after FedEx shooting

Members of Indianapolis’ tight-knit Sikh community joined with city officials to call for gun reforms Saturday as they mourned the deaths of four Sikhs who were among the eight people killed in a mass shooting at a FedEx warehouse.

Likely not a coincidence.

And he was just fired from there.

Perhaps if wwe knew why he was fired ?
Was it bad time keeping or something more sinister ?

So now you think you can dictate the content of my posts as well. Yet another stereotypical leftist that has utterly no clue.

It must be the natural fascism inherent with leftism, since you all think you can dictate what others should or shouldn't do, own or not own, say or not say. If only you were as diligent with your own BS, but then you wouldn't be a leftist. After all, is it their hypocrisy that defines leftists.

 

[TurtleDude]

there is virtually no police force in the country that wishes everyone was shooting at each other when they pull up

those who run police departments are often toadies to the big city mayors (mainly democrats) those toadies see people being armed as a testament that the police are not able to protect people from crime

armed private citizens are less likely to shoot the wrong person, and more likely to hit the criminal than police are

a well regulated militia has nothing to do with infringing on the rights of THE PEOPLE

My idea of police reform would be to abolish the union. All public unions should be abolished, as their mere existence subverts the will of the people. Private unions, however stupid I think they are, have the First Amendment right to exist. Government unions do not.

"All government employees should realize that the process of collective bargaining, as usually understood, cannot be transplanted into the public service." - Franklin D. Roosevelt, 1937, from a letter written to the President of the National Federation of Federal Employees.

The very nature and purposes of government makes it impossible for administrative officials to represent fully, or to bind the employer in mutual discussions with government employee organizations. The employer is the whole people, who speak by means of laws enacted by their representatives in Congress. Accordingly, administrative officials and employees alike are governed and guided, and in many instances restricted, by laws which establish policies, procedures, or rules in personnel matters.

All public unions need to be abolished, at every level (local, State, and federal). That includes the police, firemen, public teachers, etc., etc.

Face it, you don't want militias either, so you're just full of red herrings.

No, that's Winston. As far as I know, Captain Obvious is not a member. But, I haven't searched that name yet. So, maybe he is, but it's definitely not Winston.

go ahead and claim the second amendment was partially intended to give the government more power-because that is what you are claiming

One small problem with your delusions. It says "well regulated" militia. It does not say "well regulated" guns. Are you able to tell the difference between the two, or does that need to be explained to you as well?

That's stupid. Know why? Because the shooter was a lawful gun owner. So, your solution to fill the place up with more good guys with guns who can go bad is foolish.

Indianapolis FedEx shooter bought two weapons used in killings legally last year despite FBI concerns | CNN

The 19-year-old who killed eight people at a FedEx facility in Indianapolis late Thursday night purchased the two assault rifles used in the attack legally months after being investigated by the FBI due to his potential for violence, according to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.

So you want to ban guns for the %99.999 of the people out there because a handful of criminals?

Yes*

*Subject to exemptions previously discussed.

 

[RF667799]

Yes*

*Subject to exemptions previously discussed.

Because everything will be better in a decade or two (perhaps) from the "ban" when gangsters are forced to engage in their street duels with shotguns.

A well regulated militia has well regulated guns.

in the sense that a well regulated militia is one in good working order, yes, a militia in good working order would have weapons that work properly
