Reply #117: You could take frag grenades home with you?

Now that doesn't sound particularly well-regulated to me.


I can afford to buy around any bullshit law morons pass.

But... you're a law-abiding citizen. You certainly wouldn't advocate violating the law because then, by your own definition, you should not be allowed to own firearms.


Here's the key: you couldn't buy your way around gun laws if we had sane restrictions on the manufacture and import of weapons. The problem comes in when so-called pro-2nd-Amendment advocates turn themselves into a lobbying arm for the gun manufacturers.

If gun makers were prevented from overproducing for the black market or, even better, if Congress restored our Seventh Amendment right to sue the gun makers for negligence, a lot of these problems would go away. And you could keep your guns.
