The Supreme Court is reinstating a regulation aimed at reining in the proliferation of ghost guns, firearms without serial numbers that have been turning up at crime scenes across the nation in increasing numbers.

    Do you get equally upset my people that collect knives, old tools, or cars?

    All of those can be dangerous too.

      Ah yes, nobody talks about the daily news of someone killing dozens of people with knives, old tools, and/or cars! We should absolutely not worry about guns while these clearly significantly more dangerous weapons are allowed to proliferate so easily!

        According to the cdc, about 42,000 people died from car accidents.

        In 2021, the worst year for gun deaths, about 48,000 people died from guns.

        So yes, cars are just about as Dangerous as guns.

        We need to ban all these maniacs from owning full automatic transmission vehicles.

      No, and I’m not upset. I just think it’s excessive to think you need that many guns for 2-4 people. I saw one gentleman that had an arsenal of 250 guns and 90 handguns in the guise of self defense, for one person. He carried 3 ar-15’s in his car at all times and walked around with 4 handguns 2 on h hi is hip and one on each leg in ankle holsters. His gun belt carried 8 magazines at all times.

      If you ask me that’s stupid, if he got into a gunfight with someone he might have enough time to use 2 or 3 shots off one gun. Sorry but that does not put the odds in your favor.

        You have a right to bear arms. No guise needed.

            If we were cut back to only what we need we’d all be miserable.

              I only have what I need and I’m quite happy. There are a lot of people that are the same way. Besides guns aren’t a need, unless you live off the land and don’t use a store at all, they are mostly a want, based on different reasonings.

                Ah. So you’ve gone full ascetic? I have a lot of respect for that. I like spices and shit so I’m gonna fight for wants being important, too.

                  Oh don’t get me wrong, very one has wants. And a lot are able to achieve that. I guess what I’m trying to get at is there is such a thing as being too much or excessive
