Are you under the impression that the VC and Taliban only had semi auto rifles? Both had tech beyond that, and if you're advocating that civilinas be given access to explosives to fight off a potentially oppressive government then just lol.

i dont understand why youre participating in this anti-authoritarian govt thing he's presenting, considering the us govt has been authoritarian af and no one is shooting the shit out of them

Aww...it's Hairstotle's first big word.

The customer's preference is always right (i.e. even if you believe the customer made a bad choice, don't try to sell them on something different unless they ask for your opinion) was the original intent behind the saying.

Sorry TC, but rights are not defined solely by needs. If some people prefer to own an AR-15 instead of a Mini-14 (legally of course), then that should be their undeniable prerogative. If you want to control what people can or cannot do with their property, join a HOA.

They already can be on an emergency basis, but only for 72 hours without a court order ordering them to be held for longer. Barring that, the person being held is to be allowed to leave if they want to after the 72 hours is up.

Hmm...

It's far more difficult and costly to own an assault rifle than you give credit for, and only guns made on or before 1986 can be purchased legally making them very expensive (often around $15k).

The mother contacted police because she was worried about her son owning the weapon given his age, maturity level and lack of experience handling such a firearm, attorneys Chris Ayres and R. Jack Ayres said.

If that's all they had to go on, then they probably noted her concern as your typical concerns of a worrywart mother. Not even Red Flag laws would have acted on this.

New Riddle:

A farmer outside of his home attaches his horse to a 24-foot chain and then goes inside to sleep. The horse stands around for a while and sees an apple on the floor 31 feet away.

The horse then eats the apple.

How is this possible?

Chain is tied to something with wheels/can be pulled/etc.

Or the other end was not attached to anything at all.

Every developed country has mental health problems, every developed country has violent videogames, every developed country has access to hateful online content. Only one developed country has all this gun violence and mass shootings.

Could it be... all the guns?

None of those things added up to be a problem until the late 80s, and many shooters didn't play games let alone violent games. One country does over-prescribe psychotropic drugs like SSRIs and other antidepressants to minors and young adults which have a positive link to greatly increased violent tendencies.

Good for you. Doesnt mean readily accessible weapons of war is a good thing.

The military primarily use bolt-action rifles for anti-personnel sniping (they still use the semiautomatic Barrett M107A1for anti-materiel), so I guess you want those gone as well since it is technically a "weapon of war."

The military also carries around semiautomatic pistols (usually chambered in 9mm) alongside their main weapon, so I guess those are also considered "weapons of war" so let's get rid of those as well.

The military also uses shotguns for breaching locked or barricaded doors and can also be used against enemy infantry, so that also makes them "weapons of war" so those have to go too.

Is there any class of guns left that can't be considered as a "weapon of war"? I guess revolvers, but they used to be the main sidearm of soldiers before the advent of the M1911, so those are also gone.

are there background check laws that would really catch these people?

Currently? Nope. If they were more comprehensive like obtaining a security clearance in the Military was, I doubt very many people would be allowed to own firearms.

2nd amendmenters would never allow that. they didn't even like barring people who receive welfare for mental illness to be able to buy.

This is a bad take when you take into account that even the ACLU disagreed with the law.

so you think 2nd amendment proponents would be ok with required military clearance prior to buying a gun lol

That fails the undue burden standard so hard that no one sane would ever seriously suggest it.

Take away the fact that guns are a right.
Institute a waiting period and more extensive background checks.
Abolish conceal carry (sorry not sorry, terrorists ruined it for you).
For those that dont comply, take guns from their cold dead hands

You wouldn't even make it past the first step before the citizens fought back. Good luck with that.

Lol. The citizens have no chance againt the government if the gov went serious. Any resistance would be crushed in days, if not hours.

That explains why adversaries like ISIS and the Taliban were defeated overnight...oh, wait. LMAO!

As surely you could amend the amendment? Hell article 5A says it can be.

Any part of the constitution can be amended. Hell, it could theoretically be amended to make me god king of the US for life. However, at this point in time, the likelihood of the 2nd amendment being repealed by a new amendment is about the same as my theoretical amendment being ratified because both would require 38 states to ratify the amendment before it becomes effective.

We all know the answer is due to the black market. We have strict gun laws in Canada and have mass shootings whether it's gangs or someone frustrated with life. You can't tell people with today's technology how weapons are still being sold underground? Like how stupid is our government that in the year 2019 they are still letting it go on? Very rarely do mass shootings occur with people who got the gun legally.

Nope. Black market guns are a fringe minority of mass shootings. 80% of mass shootings were done with legally purchased guns. Simply patching up the holes in the NICS background check system will go much further in reducing mass shootings and other gun violence than virtually all of the proposed laws by gun control groups.

It's that thing with relativistic mass - as you move faster, your mass increases, and it does so in increasingly large amounts. Eventually this levels off at the speed of light, where you'd need an infinite amount of mass to be at the speed.
So anything that doesn't have zero rest mass (eg. light) can't get there.

https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-89989dd5f56dc4ff39f141344fa12f97

There is no such thing as relativistic mass. Kinetic energy and momentum are the relativistic variables. Both kinetic energy and momentum have their Newtonian formula multiplied by the Lorentz factor =1/(1-v/c).
Relativistic kinetic energy=mc(-1)
Relativistic momentum p=mv

Didn't the LHC recently create a particle that was observed moving faster than the speed of light? Doesn't this disprove the comments in this topic? Did I imagine the fine people at the LHC doing this?

The anomalous reading that was caused by faulty equipment was later corrected. The speed of light in a vacuum is still absolute.

Obviously she escalated the situation quickly but you cant arrest someone for speeding. Reeks of extortion.

She initially refused to sign the ticket, failed to follow instructions to exit vehicle, drove off before she was released from the traffic stop, and resisted arrest.

https://www.reddit.com/r/NEET/comments/ck0b96/parents_owe_it_to_kids_to_take_care_of_us_for_as/

Parents owe it to kids to take care of us for as long as we're alive. They brought us into this world against our will.

Look at it this way. You have the option of bringing a child into this world right now... there's a very real possibility that this child won't want to spend their life being wagecucked and slaving away for someone else their whole life. Sure, most of them will be fine with it - as is apparent in modern society - but just what if they are one of the chosen few who doesn't want to live like that?
The decisions a potential parent can make are:
A) Don't have the kid.
B) Have the kid, but the onus is on me to support it if they don't want to spend their life wagecucking.
C) Have the kid, but decide that if they don't wanna wagecuck, just throw them to the curb and let them starve to death.
Option C is the most popular one in today's society.

And the only moral decision at that. As long as the child is taking good faith efforts after high school to become financially independent, the parents are obligated to continue to support the child until such a time they can take care of themselves. A child that tries to laze around all day doing nothing constructive is to be given the state-required eviction notice and given the boot once their time is up.
