link plead the 5th on me...
Yeah I could so see me putting 3-12" w3 JL audio subs with a 1000w rockford fostgate amp in my little hatchback ! I would have to drive around with my range hearing protection on
Besides, I like to feel and hear the bass, not be beaten into submission by it ... Just enough bass to compete with the road noise/wind while making my slow jams sound smoothe as silk and the rap songs beat like I've got someone tied up trying to escape my trunk
As far as 2A, since the requirements are promulgated by the states, not the federals government the 2A is irrelevant.
Well you guy are forgeting that, even though a crimnal can get thier hands on a gun illegally, he can never use it or show it to anyone without commiting a crime. If I am in an accident, or traffic stop, or whatever and am carrting legally, nothing bad happens to me. If your "banger" with an illegal wepon get pulled over for a broken tailight and the cop discovers his wepon, he is going to jail. And this happens alot. If there was nor regulation, alot of the very bad people who are in jail now for gun crimes would be out on the street.
I dont mind taking a driving test to get my drivers license and I dont mind taking a training course to get my ccw. It wont deter me because I am Legal.
There is one benefit to the training and proficiency requirements: it keeps the stats on CCW related shootings to an almost non-existant level.
He was right."First, the freedom to own and carry the weapon of your choice is a natural, fundamental, and inalienable human, individual, civil, and Constitutional right -- subject neither to the democratic process nor to arguments grounded in social utility."
So are the stats on CCW related shootings in Vermont worse then Texas or Florida etc.?
MY BIL is a gangster and through him I have met many more. Nothing you can say or do will stop them from owning/carrying guns. I have met people in their 20's who have shot or been shot many times and their resolve will not decrease through any legislation. They will get guns and they will use them. Period. They do not carry cheapo .25's, most of them carry at least 9mm and although thier range time is not on par with ours, they do shoot often. Anybody who lives in da hood can attest to constant late night gunfire in the backyards. These people do not care for laws and will not respect them. If you think laws will stop them, you are a fool. Most of them are already have warrants for their arrest, live criminal lives, and are a threat to those with whom they have contact. If they want what you have, they will do anything to get it.
The only defense is awareness and logic. Do not underestimate your enemy.
As far as CCW requirements, anyone who has a pulse should be allowed to carry. I myself have been denied because of honest youthful mistakes.
The finally left after deciding they weren't FLAT enough. Flat as in sticking it in the waistband flat.
