In both cases you have a requirement that a procedure be followed before a sale is made and (in the hypothetical) in both cases you're selling something untraceable. Enforcement is still feasible by having cops try to make these purchases without going through that procedure.

Your tears are delicious.

How do you enforce ID laws without booze registration?

Seconded. I found a huge mine system with two cave spider spawners close to each other. It's a long ass run every time.

It gives the kidnappers unprecedented leverage over the president.

Hitler was a Kenyan?

You're retarded.

It's not a derail. This is a specific instance of larger issues with its own unique particulars. The shit you are talking about is all also in our ability to change (the mutability of the constitution was one of the few things the founding fathers got right). However the mundane legal issues...

...Soysauceonrice said while staring at a mirror.

Again, I didn't advocate that no constitution should exist. Also, you should really learn the difference between legal and ethical justifications and the philosophical foundations of rights. Here's a helpful hint: the reason we could tell that slavery was bad and abolition was good was because...

He's doing a better job than you.

I'll consider allthese pointsdropped then and take my victory lap.

While we're talking about strawmen, I never said anything about abolishing the constitution. I said we should consider the merits of the law on its own. The constitution is mutable (maybe not easily, but not impossibly either). If it were the case that we should ban all guns, that would be a...

This idea that the government is allowed (either ethically OR legally) to interfere in people's lives in any way that it is not explicitly restrained from doing so is not a given. Your continual need to insinuate it without any kind of supporting argument is obnoxious.

It isn't ethical to use the threat of government violence to stop them without sufficient justification. They're not mutually exclusive. In fact, our society is, in historical terms, more peaceful than ever. No that doesn't follow at all, particularly when you look at the decidedly un-peaceful...

I don't know anything about you so I can't tell if you're being sarcastic.

Well banning new assault rifles is an unjustified imposition on people who would like to own them (since it drives the prices through the roof), and an imposition on the manufacturers (for obvious reasons). The registration and magazine limitations are unjustified impositions on current owners...

And if this particular jack off does just want to "mow down the range" (my targets, not the other shooters, obviously) why shouldn't I be allowed to do that? Because someone else might be psychotic? What does that have to do with me?

I think you just answered your own question.

Logic? Morals? Ethics? The constitution is mutable. Should it be in the constitution? For that matter, does its presence in the constitution actually matter? In other words, would governments, federal or otherwise, be legally empowered to ban weapons if it weren't? These are not trivial...

Who gives a shit about hunting? What if I want to shoot a high-caliber gun at targets for fun? Why should the possibility that someone else might do something fucking crazy with a totally different gun preclude me from doing that?

Within the confines of the law?

How about a discussion of the merits of the law irrespective of its constitutionality?

Yeah but they don't require that you carry them on your person as proof of your citizenship to ZE FATHERLAND.

Like I said before, I'm a pro-gun commie pinko leftist. That often puts me in strange company on the issue of gun control. However my stance against gun control is one of principle, not utility. That means that I don't have to feel any degree of self-consciousness when it comes to the issue...

Shhhhhh. Remember, that's not for us to talk about. Our state representatives have to exercise the will of the majority and then the supreme court will decide. Ours is not to reason why.

Yeah sorry for being the one that's trolling here.

God you're dumb.

Another thing that we can do is talk about the validity of shitting on the rights of the minority (even if the constitution allows it!) and use that conversation to inform the choices we make when we go to the voting booth. Yeah you're right cause there's no overlap between the debate about...

Are you saying there's something odd about his desire that, at all time, we carry around IHNEN PAPIEREN?

Voter fraud isn't a real problem. Saying "come on" won't change that.

You made an argument defending the law on the basis that it was in line with the will of the people (as evidenced by the fact that it's a state law and not a federal one). I pointed out why that since it's laughably trivial to find historical examples of "the people" shitting on a minority's...

lolwut So majority rule is how our system of government works except that the court actually decides and, apparently, that means we can't even talk about how theyoughtto decide. Jesus.

To be fair, the founding fathers actuallydidoverlook that part of the constitution. The supreme court granted itself the power in Marbury v. Madison in 1803. In fact, Hamilton explicitly said that the various branches of government should decide the matter for themselves and that no branch had...

That's nice. Sometimes the people are shitty and should have their rights protected from the will of the people. You're acting like it's a good thing that it's easier to shit on people at the state level. It isn't. If you're unclear on the ethical mechanics at play, rewind the clock to...

Hard Truths Cut Both Ways

Only if you assume that "the government" only applies to the federal government. But that would be ridiculous.

Is Cube 3 Cube Zero or did they make another one?

1. They're just crawling over each other. 2. Fast zombiesisn'tdoing something different. Fast zombies are old hat by now. In fact, I think if you were to go through the entire zombie canon and stack all the fast zombie movies in one pile and all the slow zombie movies in another, you'd be...

I'm pretty sure all you wrote was "stuff," Draegan.
