how many of you CA residents plan to register your "assault rifles"

36. Eh,

rights change. I can certainly debate whether it is a valid right. I wonder what other right we have that takes at least 8g's or more to fully use that right? $2700 to a federal candidate in an election and $5k to an super pac per year. That comes pretty close. I look at gun rights like I do SS, the individual right of a person to not have their money taken by the government does not supersede the inability of most people to save money for retirement and without it we would have millions in abject poverty and worse. Same thing with guns, sure your or my right to have a gun is really strong and we are probably responsible gun owners but there are millions of people every year that are effected by gun violence. The chances of a gun owner to have to use it to protect themselves is so very small compared to the amount of people killed each year by guns from violence. Not trying to be a jerk or anything and I appreciate the conversation, too much lately most discussions I get in (not on du) have me being a libtard within two exchanges.
