[W:424]Parkland Students' Gun Control Proposal Is Beyond Radical

[WCH]

March for Our Lives, the gun control group started by Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students following the tragic shooting in Parkland, Florida, on Wednesday released their comprehensive gun control plan, know as the "Peace Plan."

"We don’t have to live like this: in fear for our lives and our families. The federal government has failed in its responsibility to protect the safety and well-being of the public with regard to the nation’s gun violence epidemic. The time for comprehensive and sweeping reform is now," the group said on the plan website. "We need ambitious leadership throughout the whole of government to stand in opposition to the gun lobby and industry in order to secure a peaceful America for generations to come."

• a national licensing and registry system. Specifically, gun owners would have to go through in-person interviews with law enforcement, provide personal references, obtain firearm safety training and wait 10 days for each firearm purchase. Licenses would expire every year and requirements would have to be fulfilled again.

• to require gun owners to pay an annual licensing fee.

• to impose higher fees on bulk firearms and ammo purchases.

• to raise the gun ownership age to 21.

• to expand the list of reasons to prohibit someone to own a firearm. Prohibited possessors would include: individuals with felony convictions, any level of domestic violence offenders (protective orders and misdemeanors), individuals with a documented history of violence, individuals convicted of hate crimes, individuals convicted of stalking, and individuals that make a credible and public threat against a specific person or institutions such as schools, churches, or workplaces.

• to prevent gun owners from obtaining more than one firearm per month.

• to prohibit online firearm and ammo sales and transfers, including for parts.

• a ban on assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, and other "weapons of war."

• a national gun buy-back and disposal program.

• to require safe gun storage on all firearms.

• to require gun owners to report a lost or stolen firearm to law enforcement within 72 hours.

• to declare a national emergency around gun violence and create a goal to reduce gun injuries and deaths by 50 percent in 10 years.

• to reexamine District of Columbia v. Heller, which says a person has a right to own a firearm in the home for self protection.

• to have the Federal Elections Commission (FECT) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) investigate the NRA.

• to repeal the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act.

• to appoint a National Director of Gun Violence Prevention (GVP) who reports directly to the president.

• to provide $250 million annually for research by the CDC and other federal agencies on gun violence prevention.

• urban violence reduction programs, suicide prevention programs, domestic violence prevention programs, mental and behavioral health service programs.

• to automatically issue voter cards to Americans once they turn 18

• to create a "Safety Corps," similar to the Peace Corps.

Go ahead. Sneer at them, tell them their opinions don't merit consideration. Thousands, maybe tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, of those people will be voting for the first time next year and the more the right beaks off to and about them the more determined they'll all be to show up at the polls.

They are getting used by the gun grabbing Left as convenient pawns in the war against the 2nd amendment. Another of "it's for the children" ploys.

Commies always use the children to gain power.


Beginning in 1966, Mao Zedong, who had withdrawn somewhat into the background of the Chinese leadership in the previous years, marshaled the youth of China in a new campaign against supposed party deviationists and class enemies

Does not really matter, very little of that list has much chance to become anything more than stump time rhetoric.

 

[Chillfolks]

I am ok with a voluntary buyback program. Other than that the list is ****.

Arrgh?
Which totalitarian regime?
I'm getting the feeling you're about to declare that people with totalitarian ambitions are pushing those students forward and telling them what to say. Is that what you want me to get from your posts here?

It matters for whoever is brainwashing these kids. I'm sure they believe they'll eventually succeed in convincing them all.

That doesnt make sense. I should listen to kids because my guns are more precious than their lives? What the hell? lol


We dont take the opinions of kids seriously about anything else...but we are supposed to take them seriously about Constitutional Rights? That is going to be a no from me, dawg.

Yes I am. The youth have long been used to help bring the worst people on this planet into power.

Rich white corporate super rich men who want us peasants disarmed - particularly poor black men, which is why they want fees. Across all of human history the rich and powerful want peasants disarmed while they themselves are behind their walls with their private armies.

The Democratic Party has always wanted to disarm blacks - and it used to be Democratic Party passed laws that a black man touching a gun was to be executed. The 1986 gun control law was specifically in response to the Black Panthers loudly calling for blacks to arm themselves.

Notice not ONE item on the list shows any interest in actually protecting kids in school. Rather, it is a bunch of mostly white kids demands to be defenseless victims, believe all young adults - particularly females - should experience rape and gang rape from when they leave home until age 21, and want all poor people - particularly poor black people - to be disarmed or imprisoned if they arm themselves anyway.

What they don't want is anyone even possibly able to stop mass murdering school kids. Rather, to advertise for mass shooting promising the shooter is safe to do so.

 

[joko104]

It is notable they want having any firearm even for self defense in your home outlaws.

Throwing in automatic voter registration at age 18 has nothing to do with firearms.

Good. Make sure that your side of the aisle keeps insulting young people. See how well that works out for you in upcoming elections.

Are you unable to make any arguments based not entirely on emotion?

[daeler]

There are about 2 things in there proposal that makes sense, The CDC funds for prevention and the urban violence reduction program.

Taking away rights is never a good thing, just look at the patriot act. At any time Law enforcement can declare you a terrorist and hold you indefinitely with no recourse.

people should really be more leery about just giving up rights, you have a very hard time getting them back.

The Republican proposal......

Do you actually think saying that people care more about their guns than humans is not an emotional argument?
