Double quote to address the rest. My wife wears glasses occasionally...drives like a bat out of hell...not to mention she is in need of psychiatric care. IMO.

 

hahaha. Now she is going to kill me.

I couldn't get anything for it, they wouldn't take it, wouldn't really discuss it. I just want it gone out of my house. I'm going to call my local substation and see if they will take it.

 

Sounds like a plan if that is your choice. Good on you for being responsible.

I refuse to sell to anyone in the open. You have no idea who they are. Thanks for acknowledging that I am trying to keep a gun out of criminals' hands.

 

I bought my guns through a gun shop, filled out the state and federal forms. I'm for background checks at gun shows. If that was the case, I'd sell there.

Just an FYI....find someone, anyone, to sell it to and just make an FFL transfer part of the sale.  It's usually $25 and most of the time buyer and seller split the cost.  All you have to do is walk into any gun store and tell them you are selling a gun and they will do the background check for you.  $25 and an hour of your day for piece of mind.

Good suggestion. I'm pretty sure my local gun shop has this service. I'll check out the next local gun show.

The gun control "debate"... another bit of stupidity. Let's take a look at the opposing viewpoints.

 

Side A: We have a serious problem. Can we take a look at this please?

Side B: Some people gave my political party a bunch of money to tell me no, we can't talk about it and I'm just gonna go along with that cause since I'm from Kentukeeeeeeeeeeee and I'm dum as ****.

I said i would stay out of political threads unless it was something really important to me.  And this is.  Your bad attempt to paint it as such an easy issue is a prime example of why nothing gets done.  But go ahead and try to make it a party issue.  I left my party a while ago.  Doesnt change my views.

 

Would you care to have a real debate?  Im always game.

Ok but I think you and I are actually in agreement (generally) on the topic if I recall from earlier conversations. I, of course, know that the subject is more complex than my little post. I wanted to rail on the GOP (I've only gotten to do it like 25 times so far today, not nearly enough) and I thought it would be fun to say "Kentuckeeeeeeeee". Here is what I want to do when it comes to guns....

 

Well, actually I don't know. I want to do whatever will do the most good. If everybody having 50 guns will save the most lives, reduce crime & accidents, etc then I want to do it. If 0 guns would accomplish that goal, then I want to do that. My best guess is that there is something in the middle that can save lives without unnecessarily infringing on people's rights. The problem is, we don't know what that is because the NRA (and others) block any attempt to find those common sense solutions.

pretending everyone who disagrees with you is stupid doesn't help to find common ground. 

I know that not everyone who disagrees with me is stupid. I'm only addressing the people who actually are stupid. Sadly, It's a much larger number than I originally believed. There's no finding common ground with them nor do I want to find common ground with them. I would rather find common ground with the coffee table that my feet are currently resting on. What I want is for people to stop suffering their foolishness. The stupidity must be crushed. Afterward, the not quite so stupid people can begin to work on that whole common ground thing.

If it is my coffee table. You are asked politely to take your feet down with an explanation of why it is rude. Not to mention you can throw your feet over the couch.

I ask again, you are asked to leave. 

You don't leave...you are an intruder. 

Roll the dice.

Let me scan this thread to get your thoughts on guns before I respond.

 

edit: Now that I look at it, I'm not sure if this even really is a coffee table. It's more of a trunk.

Well, i'm sure that most facists would agree with you, They only want to kill the stupid people. They only want to imprison the unjust. Their opponents must be crushed.

 

 

 

 

My view is they should give guns away, but make bullets almost impossible to buy.. currently in most states felons can buy ammo no problem, they're are no background checks for ammo. Guns can be used over and over again. There's a thing called a "hood gun"

 

Ammo can only be used once*. Sees like a pretty obvious fix. Background checks on buying ammo, and a limit to how much you can buy, and a limit to how much you can store.
