I just love the myth/fact presentations. I wouldn't even waste someone else's bandwidth looking up that balderdash.
As for the driver’s licenses vs. firearms licenses point of view...
THERE IS NO AMMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES preventing the infringement of driving privileges.
Sensible gun control is NEEDED...that is for sure. We don't want children (under 12, I think) with firearms, nor do we want felons with them. Probably don't want mentally retarded or the blind to use them either. I'm sure a reasonable list of restrictions could be developed.
AS for the weapons themselves. IF THE GOVERNMENT or its agents get them...SO DO THE PEOPLE. PERIOD. No restrictions what so ever on the types of ~arms~ the people can posses.
There is a method to modify this creator-given and constitutionally guaranteed right (2/3 of congress, and ratification by all states, I believe). We should give that a try for once....
out,
bear
