shocked at the level of agreement concerning disarming the citizens of the USA.

Almost half voted for Gore and some will no doubt vote for Kerry - demonstration of gross mental incompetence is a disqualifying factor for gun ownership in my opinion.

I suspect that I have exhausted your patience on this one, but let me ask one more time a question I think is important:
Do the restrictions you propose apply to small arms like handguns and rifles?
FWIW, if you believe that such small arms should be available without any training or other restrictions, I am prepared to withdraw the remarks about you being liberal and anti-gun. I'll even apologize. Anything to get you to testify against that communist anti-gun medic from Texas.

NDD and TR - You are full of Donkey Hooey! Why not make it so that only the rich can own a weapon? Crap people there are plenty of ways to learn to use a weapon responsibly. NDD, obviously you did not share your wealth of weapon handling knowledge with the geek room mate. Maybe if you had he would not have flagged the next time.
Guys, it is the responsibility of ALL gun owners to educate NOT be the all knowing and all slamming of those with less knowledge. TEACH them, They do not need a 250.00 class on it. NDD, when you were a young private, could you have afforded that money? TR, why can't the friends teach responsible gun handling, why must it be a sanctioned course costing big bucks? OH yes, that excludes the poor that do not need to defend themselves.
I agree with RL, you guys are closet gun banners!!!

The geek roommate attended the same courses of instruction I did. Had another "operator" ND a 12 gauge and slay the tailgate of an M880.
I refuse, at this juncture of my life, to continue to attempt to overcome the lack of education of children other than my own.
I have learned that some people are truly just stupid and there's nothing I can do about it.
I am at peace with it.

Obviously, you're not. You're trying to regulate to address the stupidity. And not in a sensible way either.

I concur. I am still shocked.. I viewed Reaper as a pro-gun rights ally before this thread???
Signed,
owner of guns that would not be allowed to own a gun in NDD/TR's "People republic of Bradybill-land" due to the lack of completion of some ridiculous $250 safety training course by some fat guy at a gunshop that took a one week "trainer" seminar from the ATF.

Do you have to show to a competent authority a basic level of ability in handling an automobile before you are allowed to have a driver's license?

I never said that. What I am talking about is driver's ed for guns. You can go to Blackwater or Gunsite or Thunder Ranch. Or, for $30 an hour, I will come to your house.

For some reason I find the idea of taking a firearm safety class from the ATF very funny. Something about target discrimination and Waco, Tx...

Like so.

Yes, but there is no constitutional right to drive a car.
