Ubiq: I wouldn’t call it Bipartisan when only 8 Republicans voted for it.
Unfortunately, the mods don’t like posting my response, so I will not waste more time on this.
“you keep making the same silly mistake. The constitution and the supreme court are not torah Misiani lehavdil.”
That is your silly mistake. Until ruled otherwise, a law is torah misinai until another court replaces. You are living in La La land and basing your arguments on the “What If” scenario. I am being factual. The law is the way it is and there is nothing you can do about it until it changes. So yes, yell, scream and protest. That is your constitutional right.
you keep on bring up car registration which is an absurd argument.
1) Car registration is not federal. As you already pointed out, even gun registration is state level.
2) Car registration is a simple fee, same as gun licensing. The test is also very simple and majority of Americans pass it on the first try.
3) Car registration and licenses are revoked for a period amount of time if you misuse your car. Should the same apply with guns? No.
4) Nearly 1.25 million people die in road crashes each year, on average 3,287 deaths a day. An additional 20-50 million are injured or disabled. Based on your logic, we should ban all vehicles!
So what should we discuss, 40,000 people that die from gun violence (2/3 from suicide) or the 1.25 MILLION that are killed by a dangerous weapon??
” including a majority of Republicans and even a majority of nra members.” Seriously? You crack me up with your misinformation. Per your news source, NPR, “The vote on the first bill, dubbed the Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2019, passed largely along party lines 240 to 190”. I hardly call that support!
