Every Adult Male Over The Age Of 18 Required To Possess a gun

[Backbacon]

TH.... I think we can all agree that most of the youth today need a sort of morality and ethical check? The disrespect for their elders and the ongoing increasing problem of the "THUG" life mentality displayed is utterly appalling.

Your question is fine, just the "What if, like Switzerland...." bit is misleading. That's all.

Your right for once, it is misleading, and as far as I can tell, you are the only one that said it. I had to go back and read it again just to see if I missed something. More proof that you don't really know what you are talking about

What if our government passed a law stating every adult male over the age of 18 was legally required to possess and carry a gun, would members carry, object to or refuse and why......We are talking about a law stating that if you do not carry a weapon at all times your are breaking the law and subject to arrest....

I could throw a joke in here,
but personally would consider breaking the law.

Plain and simple reason, I believe we have too many laws already to run our lives,
do we really need another ?

Chill out, hombre.

I would carry because I carry already.

Interesting reads, here. However, I don't get the idea that some would rather not be ready to protect their family, themselves, or neighbors when faced with a deadly situation. If an intruder entered my home, threatened my family, my neighbors, or was physically abusing to another who could not defend themselves, I personally, could not stand by and do nothing, but watch. I would pray, that if I am not around to protect my family and neighbors, that someone would be near and ready to protect them in an instant, as would I, if it were their loved ones.

Jesus said, "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends." - John 15:13

Great question TH. I live a simple life. I do not break the law or the Constitution. I feel this law would be unconstitutional, so it would not be valid. It's the same way I would feel if firearms were taken away from the law abiding folks of this country. I wouldn't feel right following a law I agrees with, if it was against the Constitution.

Okay, every male over 18 with no criminal record and no history of mental illness, question is "would members carry, object to or refuse and why"......We are talking about a law stating that if you do not carry a weapon at all times your are breaking the law and subject to arrest, would not matter if you believe in guns or not, the law stated all adult males must carry.....

Some people just don't get it. All this talk about constitution and yet people still haven't a clue, you cannot pass a law that is unconstitutional.

Making up scenarios that can never happen is not helping your cause either. To be fair the law would have to be all persons over 18 must carry, and that includes anyone here on a work visa, illegally, or just a plain tourist. There are some things you just can't nitpick, and that is one of them So back to the drawing board

Now, with all of the above mentioned guns crime will drop dramatically, once the smoke clears and no one is left

Not really. Just proof that TH altered his original post to remove what he'd written before you arrived and decided to insult me. I get official warnings for less than what you said here.

How do you recon this came about

 

[Rebel - KGC]

Just like a liberal to be telling me what I have to do. Our founding fathers died so that I could have the god given constitutional right not to carry a gun. And if this liberal dream of your comes true many of us will be willing to die not only for our right but for the right of our children and grandchildren. Your liberal government thugs can push that gun in to my cold dead hands.

Now if swords were required that would be an entirely different proposition.

LOL! "Founding Fathers" WERE the LIBERALS of their "days", using ENLIGHTENMENT principles to create the DOI, USC (BoR), etc. MOST of them were DEISTS (believers in G*D), rather than Christians and even Canadian Constitution has MUCH CSA "influence" added to it after the CONFEDERATE WAR (Civil War). AGAIN, Interpretations are "Situation-Specific".

 

[XLTer]

I would refuse on the grounds the law is unconstitutional . ( although I would have it close by ) But , as soon as it is repealed , I'd resume carrying just to protect myself from the idiots that should have never been carrying in the first place when the law took effect . LOL

 

[Rebel - KGC]

I believe in the right to own a gun if you wish and I believe you have a right not to. point, period

AGREE! I don't do "What If" scenarios, I am in the "here & now" ... POINTLESS! At 62, with TBI... LOL!

"Founding Fathers" WERE Liberals using ENLIGHTENMENT principles to create DOI, USC (BoR), etc. MOST of 'em were DEISTS, not Christians; THAT played a BIG "part" of "G*D given RIGHTS". Think about it... VERY Radical statements.

Dano, I took the part about Switzerland out of question because you objected to it as part of the question., see the reason posted for edit at the bottom of the original post....

That's exactly right. It's funny how the word liberal has been turned into an insult by the mindless media.

What is stopping these "idiots" from getting a gun right now?

 

[pong12211]

I agree in a man being able to make his own choices.. If he wants a firearm so be it but to make it a requirement would only put weapons in the hands of people who don't want them and who have no knowledge of them.. This will result in only bad results.. Owning a firearm is a choice and should always remain that way in my opinion...

Isn't me you should be pointing it out to. I knew why! Is Bos'n with the problem.

If the government passed a law that every adult man and woman had to carry a gun at all times then I would pack up my family and move to another country. If I didn't...I'm pretty sure I would be dead within a week.
