Replace congress? Won't happen. What else ya got? Did you somehow miss the recent election results. Sorry if it hurts your feelings but I stand by my statement that passing laws that only benefit a select few is a stupid idea. No feelers hurt at all. I know you to be a good man and I have no problem with you speaking your mind. I didn't miss the election results. What baffles me is that you actually think the results of this election mean that we will have those freedoms under the constitution as a result of this last election. You trust them more than I do, I guess.

I don't see how proposing a change from the status quo towards the direction we all want to end up at is "going along to get along"

As a Vet I like your idea but I would much rather see every law abiding citizen able to carry in every state. If you can pass a background check you should be able to carry open or concealed in every state.

Why not? If you can pass a background check you should be good to go. That is really all you have to do in WA to get a permit.
Just curious on your reasoning my friend.

Now there's something we can agree on, but for you to have more gun rights than someone else just because you're a vet isn't something I'd ever vote for. Again,,,, no different than exempting congressional staff from O-Care just because they're "civil servants" as far as I'm concerned. Two wrongs don't make a right. The same laws for everyone,,, and enforce the dam things,,,,,,,, and that's my last word on the matter:)

I'm with you 100%, FG.
Creating special classes of people is one of the things ruining this country.

Instead lets take "one giant step for mankind" and do away with unconstitutional laws beginning with the GCA of 1968.

Do you really believe that Congress would do that?

Creating special classes of people is one of the things ruining this country. So, when the founders made it so that only male land owners could vote, they were ruining this Country?

Ya' learn as ya' go (hopefully). Extending 'special rights' to certain segments of our society, but not to the rest of the citizens, is fundamentally wrong. Equal rights for everyone, and special rights for no one...it's a sound concept. Do you still think that only male land owners should be allowed to vote in our country...?
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Article I. All men are born free and equal, and have certain natural, essential, and unalienable rights; among which may be reckoned the right of enjoying and defending their lives and liberties; that of acquiring, possessing, and protecting property; in fine, that of seeking and obtaining their safety and happiness.
They got this part right.

I know I said I was going to zip it but I'd just like to go on record that I'd be happy to give vets a complimentary CCW permit if only male landowners were allowed to vote or own guns.

LEO doesnt mean familiar with firearms either.
As said above, if you can legally own, you should be able to legally carry. I agree. If you can legally own you should be legal to carry. That does NOT mean all eligible citizens should be carrying. It's like having children, just because you can have them does not mean you should have them. Some folks just can't be trusted with kids or guns. kwg
