I get where you're going Andy, and generally, I try to take that line myself. Harder to do when folks come here and insult the entire forum. That said, I've said my piece, I'll leave it go from here.
Same. Not worth any more keystrokes.

Again, this all comes down to the Counties willingness to support or Ignore, and what the county Sheriff will or will not do! Remember, the Sheriff IS the top dog law enforcement officer in his county, all other LEO are subservient to his authority including Fed agents and enforcement personal! So, This is the more important question, where do our Sheriff's stand?
I was talking with a friend of mine about the 2A. He brought up a very good point. When the Constitution was being written, it was being written for the absolute latest, greatest and most modern firearms of the time.
That should be the way it is meant today!
As does my current one! in Marion County!
We should do a list of our sheriff's posting their stance on such things and the 2nd and the sanctuary state status, be pretty telling to see it all listed out!
Yea, I wonder about that guy! Too bad, as your county is pretty solid Blood Red!
The only 'restriction' necessary, was handed down by Moses, long before guns were invented: "You shall not kill". Not religious, just a good moral value that I don't think is taught much any more?? Could solve a lot of our problems??
The argument that the 2A only protects our right to muskets is frequently made by antis.
A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, unless I say it's reasonable.
§ 4003. Carrying dangerous weapons
A person who carries a dangerous or deadly weapon, openly or concealed, with the intent or avowed purpose of injuring a fellow man, or who carries a dangerous or deadly weapon within any state institution or upon the grounds or lands owned or leased for the use of such institution, without the approval of the warden or superintendent of the institution, shall be imprisoned not more than two years or fined not more than $200.00, or both.
It was not "you shall not kill", it was "you shall not murder" (if you look at the original text before translation). There is a difference.
I haven't read any of the thread, but I will say this; for the most part, the only "reasonable" restrictions that I can think of off the top of my head are:
1) Adult supervision - i.e., ownership/possession of a firearm should be age restricted to whatever we consider to be an adult capable of "consent" - otherwise there needs to be a supervising adult present while a non-adult has possession of a firearm.
2) Someone who has proven (not probable cause, proof as in a witnessed action) that they cannot be trusted with a firearm. E.G., a person who committed a violent crime where a firearm was involved - e.g., armed robbery, murder, assault, etc. - included in this might be someone who negligently used a firearm, e.g., negligent homicide, negligent use of a firearm in such a way that negligently endangered other people.
Those two pretty much covers most of the situations I can think of where a person would be someone that should not be trusted with a firearm such that their rights to own/use a firearm should be constrained. I think there are a LOT of people out there that own firearms that probably shouldn't, but I would not be willing to take away their rights until such time as they prove that they shouldn't have them.
Sixth Commandment:
"Thou shalt not kill" (Exodus 20:13). God values life; each son and daughter is precious to Him. Under normal circumstances, you do not have the right to take someone else's life. Only in times of war, self-preservation, or other extenuating circumstances would killing be necessary or acceptable to God. As a general rule, God makes it clear that killing is wrong.
