re: firearm restrictions. Only for NON citizens and violent felons, and my viewpoint isn't from the perspective of: "they should not have a right to self protection". It's from the perspective of: we are the United States, if we go to war with ANY other country, we have tens or more lightly hundreds of thousands of foreign nationals within our borders, armed. That sounds like a dumb ass idea to me. I might add that watching 2 skyscrapers fall up close and personal 23 years ago made more AMERICA FIRST than most. YMMV
You already mentioned other countries and they oppose their own citizens being armed which is very much inline with what the crowd in New York City vote for.
So...
How are police going to know if someone is a citizen and allowed to be armed?
How will a citizen have to prove it?
What arms do you want prohibited for non le US citizens?
Where do you want non le US citizens prohibited from possessing arms?
And a really good question, how was this guy armed prior to the ruling?
