You asked for guns:



Not being racist:

The blowtorch would be of use during black fly season. But Jesus Christ, that's probably more guns than Pablo Escobar had.

Ugh. . Deepak Chopra is not a serious person. It's not guilt by association if they're at the same meeting, but like CNN's resident Dr Gupta, had "his friend" Deepak Chopra on to talk about coronavirus. That's ridiculous and I can't take Gupta seriously after that. But being on a debate stage or zoom call with Chopra in attendance isn't necessarily cause for concern. All of the people who shared a platform and challenged him were not discredited for it. Someone has to do it.

It's just the Vatican inviting them. None of them have said whether they want to go enjoy the service of the Vatican, and its no doubt healthy and dedicated alter boys.

Does anyone find those pictures normal? For me personally those are so disgusting. No one can justify that sort of possession.

Pretty fragging impressive collections.

Some people collect books or comics, others stuff animals, some like cool toys.

At the peak of my gun engagement in my late 20's, I had 4:

* a .22 Ruger semiautomatic, a sweet little rifle that did for many a rabbit and one fox
* a Mossburg pump action 12 gauge
* a .303/.250 bolt action Mauser, with a scope
* a WW2 vintage M1 semi auto .30

All gone long ago, sold to the Marxist government of John Howard during our gun amnesty...

But those arsenals in the photos are utterly insane!

I don't get it, but there's no need to justify it, it's a constitutional right.

I''m just an entry level gun nut, only have 5. Ruger Mini-14 5.56mm, Steyr M95 8x56R, Remington Autoloader 12 gauge, Bersa ThunderPro 9mm, Walther P-38 9mm. I had a few more but sold them. I probably need another larger caliber rifle, 308 or summat, the Steyr is more of a collector's item, manufactured in 1917.

I had trouble shooting even an air rifle. It did hit the paper, somewhere on the outer circle. I'm right handed but left eyed. Aiming with the right eye would have eventually worked, I just never tried.

It is? It's just a confusing line. Mostly it seems to imply that the feds should not interfere with state run militias.

Some people collect DVDs, or actions figures, the little toys from breakfast cereal, stamps, train numbers, or photographs of electricity pylons. There's lots of completists out there - usually blokes. "I just want one of everything in the set!"



Collecting guns like that is a bit strange though - but you can see why people end up with 4 tanks and half a dozen fighter aircraft etc.

I had a bolt action .22 rifle, Remington I think, and my Dad's old 12 gauge shotgun for birds.

They have been arguing over that one for a long time. But, SCOTUS has stated it applies to individual ownership, and that has always been the reality. Or course, when we have 2047 judges (all progressive Democrats) that may change. In the USA, at least. However, down here in the CSA (Constitutional States of America, coming soon to a theater near you) it will still apply.

An interesting ruling was 1875 US vs Cruikshank, which held that the 2nd does not prohibit state level restrictions, but only acts to restrict Federal powers. The inverse of that is states may have a MORE liberal stance than the Feds. That would be interesting, eh?

[Tero]

It's always been the reality because the founding fathers left it to states to state gun rights. All states of the original 13 had it in the state constitution.
