Precisely - the "Ugly Gun Ban". True assault weapons are already controlled
under the National Firearms Act. If you want one of those and aren't military/police, then you pay $500 in transfer taxes if approved. "Ken Fortenberry" wrote in message .com...

I own several guns myself, and I'm a card-carrying member of Pheasants Unlimited, but I've never needed an Uzi to kill a pheasant and neither do you. I've never needed an uzi to kill pheasants, nor for any hunting for that matter, but that's not the point of the Second Amendment, is it Kenny? In fact, I'm pretty sure the Constitution doesn't guarantee my right to hunt of fish. But it does guarantee me my right to protect myself from a tyrannical government, and it does allow me to be 'well-armed'. Luckily, we've not yet needed to actually express this right, regardless of what you whackos on the Right thought about Clinton and what you other whackos on the Left think about Bush. Neither could be considered 'tyrannical'; but simply our young country has been somewhat of a historical anomaly, hasn't it? We could easily get into the definition of 'well-armed' if you like as well, but I suspect that even a fully automatic rifle is kinda like bringing a knife to a gun fight when compared to the military's access to Abrams tanks, A10's, nuclear missiles, and the like. You know, Kenny, I've not seen much posted from you but asshole comments to people and OT posts. Clearly your only value to this group is that of functioning as the Village Idiot. -- Ken Fortenberry |

In other words, you weren't able to comprehend the two salient points of that website, even though they were clearly marked #1 and #2. If you are in favor of enforcing the Assault Weapons Ban, a law we already have, you agree with salient point #1. If you agree that gun dealers who break the law should be liable in civil suits, a law we already have, you agree with salient point #2. Geezus, unlike some of the whackos around here you really are as dumb as you look. While the website you reference poses item #2 in an inocuous light, and you also ignorantly perpetuate the misunderstanding, item #2 does not refer to dealers simply 'breaking the law'. There have been numerous lawsuits of late attempting to sue dealers and gun manufacturers for simply selling their product which later is used in a crime or accident. This has been done in an attempt to replicate some of the successes of the tobacco lawsuits. However, for the logic of the lawsuits to be the same, gun manufacturers would have to have claimed their products don't kill people and convenient stores, grocery stores and other outlets of tobacco products should have been targeted as well. -- Ken Fortenberry |

I wasn't aware that any legal body, at any level, has managed to determine precisely what the 2nd amendment intended. And for that matter, I'm quite certain the words "well-armed" are not in there. So don't be so quick to brush off the validity of the debate. --riverman |

If they aren't trying to say that their products don't kill people, then what are they saying? --riverman |

If the problem is frivolous lawsuits, then deal with frivolous lawsuits. Granting a blanket immunity would have the effect of making gun dealers who break the law not liable in civil suits. The law proposed by the NRA whackos is a bad one and I'm against it. -- Ken Fortenberry |
