These are the morons writing our laws

[packerbacker]

Just so you know rebel, you don't have to be 18 to shoot a gun. You can get a California deer tag at age 12. There isn't any minimum age to learn to shoot.

So, you see rebel, there are CHILDREN all across this country that know more about guns than this Colorado law maker. (And I'm stickin' to THAT)

Picker, you said: "And this will all be part of our wonderful political process. I'm sure she will get the boot and all these laws will be overturned if that is the will of the people." That's what one would like to think picker but that isn't the case. No matter how dumb she appears to be, the voting left will vote for her anyway just because she is left. No need to look at her fitness for a law-making position or all of the dumba$$ statements she makes. She has already blamed the gun lobby for her stupidity so she's off the hook. her and her brilliant "staffers".

Thanks TH. I do notice it happens quite a lot over time. I generally just use deductive reasoning to sort them out lol.

@Chadeaux - Yeah sorry. Usually i'd have just deleted and redone the whole post but was on my way out of the house i think. Hopefully no misunderstandings were caused.

I KNOW that, already; shot a 410 at 10... shot a 12 gauge at 12. At 3 or so... with 22, killed rats that was killing our chickens; sat on a wooden box in the chicken pen & waited... BANG! Chickens were NOT amused... PROBABLY killed about 5 rats; Dad was PROUD!

As is in Virgina. I shot a 410 at 10, 12 Gauge at 12... got hunting license for small games hunting.

So rebel, what did you mean by this statement? " MY "take" is RESPONSIBLE "voicing" of such knowledge & experience is AFTER a child becomes a LEGAL ADULT at 18 years of age" Even though you used a gun at a younger age you don't think you should have? Not sure I'm reading you correctly.

In Michigan you must be 21 yrs old to apply for a pistol licence. Should be voicing why long before. A daughter who shot from cross sticks before she could hold a rifle standing wants to know why she is not allowed to have a hand gun to and from and while at college.
Her knowledge of weapons i am confident surpasses many who are involved in law making. And has for many years.

Same reason she can't buy alcohol! It's the law!

Rebel,That was a highlite in my younger years,going to the dump shooting rats,some were pretty darn BIG too!!

A German friend said look,learn the effects of drinking,then learn to drive. Not learn to drive,go drink when you come of age and discover the effect behind the wheel.
Regarding my post, alcohol not going to defend you on the streets at night.

She should restrict her freedom of movement and only place herself in designated "safe zones". Then, if the perp can't read and attacks her anyway, she should wet her pants and blow a whistle like some lawmakers have suggested. I know, she will probably only get a small, short tweet out of the whistle before the perp smacks it from her face but, in the wisdom of Colorado congresswoman Diana DeGette, she will probably get raped anyway. Our lawmakers are here to protect us so, if you do everything they say, you'll be safe. They are soooooo much smarter than we are. As heathens we think that the only successful response to being violated is with violence. We must learn to be kinder, gentler victims.

Response to "post" # 6; "IQ of 50-69"... MANY Vets have this range of IQ due to TBI "Blast Injury" (IED); INSULT to them as well as ppl with Mental ******ation. MORONS... HA!

Is there supposed to be some correlation between my statement of historic fact and your specious assumption of my intention?

She is probably the result of an educational system that gives potential voters a trophy for participating . . . so she gets a seat just for having a D before her name.

No worries Dano.
