Guns are NOT toys!

Number of Chuck Norris films divided by the number of skulls on a given gun...*mutter*...cosecant of the muzzle velocity times the cheesiness of the beard...*mumble mumble*...carry the two... Gives us the value of 'Too many Chuck Norris movies' as Boru

One's enough to damage some brains permanently. But when you consider that people like my cousins can recite dialog from most of the movies and have actually tried to power out of a grave in an old Chevy Blazer the magnitude of the problem becomes clearer.
Yeah, guns aren't toys. You don't have a constitutional right to own a toy.
Yet for some reason we sell a constitutional right...  (June 28, 2016 at 10:05 pm)Ayen Wrote: Yeah, guns aren't toys. You don't have a constitutional right to own a toy. People aren't allowed to steal toys from you. If the do, they get in trouble if caught. The 4th Amendment protects you from unlawful searches and seizures, and that includes the toys you own. So, without probable cause for the police to take your toy, said toy, and your ownership of it, is constitutionally protected. As for selling constitutional rights, well, that's a matter of convenience we are paying for. We could make firearms in our garages, but it would be a pain in the ass. It would also be expensive if you didn't already have a lathe and mill. Materials would also be a bit expensive, as you want the good stuff to prevent failures during firing. So, the price we pay for firearms really is a pretty good deal, and convenient.

But isn't denying me a gun if I can't afford one in violation of my second amendment rights? I don't have to pay for freedom of expression. I don't have to pay to have a belief system. I don't have to pay for due process. And I don't have to pay to be protected from unlawful searches. Why should I have to pay for a gun? RE: Guns are NOT toys!

Nope, you can't deprive another person of their property (the gun you can't afford). You -do- pay for all of those rights, that's what all those taxes are for, lol. Aint nothin free up in this peice... cept airborne, a course.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
Boots cost money

I don't remember the constitution telling me I have the right to wear boots, though.
