Reply #28: Totally agree with the first, not so much with the second.

A slippery, slippery slope IMO.

However, I think guns should be licensed much the same way cars are. Prospective gun owners should be required to take lessons and establish competence before being licensed; licenses should be issued for a set period of time; gun owners re-tested before licenses are renewed; and abuses of the privilege--for gun ownership is no more a right than is car ownership, willful misreadings of the 2nd Amendment notwithstanding--should be cause for revocation of the license and confiscation of the gun(s).

And no civilian, anywhere, anytime, anyhow, should be allowed to buy/own/carry military-grade weapons.


On edit: added "Prospective."
