Just like any other product. If you make enough of them someone is going to use it in the wrong way. criminals, police, citizens good and bad......will find their way to the product and use it. In this case the usualy way is to fire it at another human which results in death.....The less of them you have the less murders you will have, its simple.

I know plenty of civilians that carry concealed, and have gone to the trouble to train for high stress situations. From what I've seen, the people that go to the trouble of getting a concealed carry license, invest in the gear necessary to take advantage of that license, and actually carry a heavy lump of a gun around with them on a day to day basis tend to take firearms training very seriously.


And I know plenty of civilians that carry concealed.........that are too arogant to believe they need any training at all. All they believe they need is many guns and many more shells to put in those guns.

Everyone that believes they have a right to carry concealed, also believes they can and would perform better than the average bear in a high stress situation. We have examples of the braggarts on this thread.

The fact remains........most would freak out. I don't like the idea of being caught of a crossfire of mental nut case and wanna be Clint Eastwoods, freaking the fuck out. One nut job at a time please.

Anyone can keep a firearm they own legally in their vehicle. You don't need a concaled carry permit for that.


That depends on where the vehicle is located, Ken. If the vehicle is on private property (say a parking lot of a business) the owner or tenant of the property can prohibit firearms if he or she wishes. This is what the NRA is trying to kill.
I feeL that property rights supercede right to carry so they can go pound sand.
One of the most basic property rights is "Right of Exclusion".


Question. Is that right a complete right? Of course not, venue depending. Public/commercial venue dress codes exclude X in favor of Y. Personally I agree fully with bolded, to the same extent I agree fully with the right to free association in all circumstances. But I'd ask if leaving my firearm in the car (my property) as to patronize (or as an employee) a NO GUNS ALLOWED ON PROPERTY business not within the spirit of the business demand?

The simple fact is that such right to exclusion is not complete. There is a marked difference between venues; business v non-business, commerce v non-commerce.

Your post points to commerce/quasi-commerce, say a parking lot of a business, not ~Jack's private property residence. Is it the commercial aspect the NRA is addressing?

the vehicle is property. hence it too comes with property rights.

How about eminent domain. Right of exclusion only means you can use the law to keep someone from saetting up house in your living room.

If you think you have the right of exclusion try not mowing your fucking lawn and see how long it takes for the city to have their foot up your ass.

A vehicle is personal property, land is real property. Surely you know the difference Mr legal eagle.
Right of exclusion means that I can exclude anyone from setting foot on my real property if I so wish. This means that I can tell you to keep your personal property (vehicle for instance) off. I can also exclude certain practices. If you refuse, you are subject to arrest.
Eminent Domain means that the government can take property for public works, etc (although that line has become blurred as of late) but thay must give fair market value.
As you should realize (I have a feeling you're being deliberately obtuse here) municipal employees in the furtherance of their duties may enter property. This means that you cannot disallow entry by meter readers, police, building inspectors, etc as long as they are there as part of their official duties.

While it is not illegal to keep a gun in your car in any state I know of, in most of them there are specific rules about that.  I am willing to bet that in over half the states you may not have it loaded, you may not have both ammo and gun within reach of the drivers compartment simultaneously, and I believe in the states you can, it has to be clearly visible from the outside, like the gun rack, unless you (even the states that forbid it) have a concealed carry. 

And in most of the states allowing concealed carry, lets just say you throw it in the cubby and forget it and then drive drunk....you got a gun beef as well as a DUI all hooked up.

It is the comercial aspect.
As for a car being property, there is a difference between personal property, (car for example and typically portable) and real property (land which is not portable).
I still make no distinction between residential and commercial property. If someone wishes to carry and doesnt like the fact that a property owner wishes to disallow firearms, they can shop or work someplace else. Isn't that what the Far Right conservatives say when supporting an employers so called right to not supply health care or something similar? "You don't like it, go work for someone else" is what they say. Then, they turn right around and say "You don't have a right to say what does and does not occur on your own property"
Owning a firearm is a second amendment right. Carrying it is a privelege. If it weren't, a permit wouldn't be required.

Are you not pointing to one right of exclusion while, on the other hand, often decrying other exclusion(s) on the other? Now, I'm just going to use your own tactics against you here. Under your rubric here, one can exclude based upon race, sex, or religion within a commercial venue, you stating I still make no distinction between residential and commercial property.

Owning a firearm is a second amendment right. Carrying it is a privelege. If it weren't, a permit wouldn't be required.

How so? People carried well prior to any establishment of such as privilege. Please justify your statement in light of Vermont.

Sucks for her...........but it still does not mean she would have the ability to use her gun and use it well. Hindsight is 20/20.

Since the beginning of human kind, people have been killing one another. The reality is that we are ALL going to die someday. Some of us will die young due to disease and some will die young due to random acts of violence. Most that die young, not due to disease, will likely die in an accident, not a random act of violence. Perhaps the gun right activists would better serve humanity by fighting for safer roads, cars, motorcycle helmets, etc. But they won't because they would rather argue reasons to keep their dick extensions.

Wouldn't it be awesome if we all had the opportunity to grow old and die peacefully in our sleep, surrounded by loved ones. It will happen for a few of us. But the reality is, for most of us it won't.

And try and hard as you might, you are not going to fucking change that.

The NRA has nothing to do with defending the Second Amendment. The NRA has nothing to do with sensible gun ownership. The NRA is about opposing ANY firearm restriction whatsoever and promoting guns in places they otherwise aren't, in both cases to promote increased gun and ammo sales.

People complain about corporate influence, but remain blissfully blind to direct NRA manipulation. They consistently use the threat where there isn't one to create stockpiling. Used to be 1 in 2 Americans owned a gun. Now one in three does, but total guns is way up. It's about selling guns and ammo, as much as possible, and to do that, they need threats--including allowing armed people to invade your own property, so that you'll need defense.

My guess is that the kind of people to have a concealed carry permit are not the type to go to opening night midnight movies. At least not the the ones I personally know


Actually, that theatre has a no weapons policy and the city has upheld their right to do so. So, there wouldn't have been anyone armed in that theatre. Rumor has it, it's one of the reasons he chose that particular theatre.

Whose rumor ?
The NRA's ?


Law Enforcement. Not the answer you were hoping for, I'm sure.

Could that be why everyone is expatriating from the gubafia?






“The people of this State do not yield their sovereignty to the agencies which serve them. The people, in delegating authority, do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is not good for them to know. The people insist on remaining informed so they may retain control over the instruments they have created. [Brown Open Meeting Act]

Lip service


Constitutional Law and Law of Contracts

A permit granted by the sovereign, generally for a consideration (Smith v Commonwealth, 175 Ky. 194 S.W. 367. 370), to a person, firm, or corporation to pursue some occupation or to carry on some business subject to regulation under police power. State ex rel. Guillot v Central Bank



NOTICE
ENFORCEMENT OF CITY/COUNTY CODES PROHIBITED

California Law prohibits Cities and Counties from enforcing City or County Codes and Ordinances upon property that is not OWNED by the City or County – even if the property is within City limits.
More lip service

California Penal Code: Chapter 5b CITATIONS FOR VIOLATIONS OF COUNTY, CITY, OR CITY AND COUNTY ORDINANCES – Sections 853.1 through 853.4 was repealed in 1967.

The Supreme Court ruled that Municipalities cannot exert any acts of ownership and control over property that is not OWNED by them, see Palazzolo v. Rhode Island 533 US 606, 150 L.Ed. 2d 592, 121 S.Ct. (2001) (no expiration date on the taking clause for City’s illegal enforcement of its Codes on the man’s private property and restricting the man’s business), affirming both Lucas v South Carolina Coastal Council, 505 US 1003, 120 L.Ed. 2d 798 (1992). (butterfly activists and Code Enforcement cannot restrict development of the man’s private swampland unless they lawfully acquire the land FIRST, surveying with binoculars constitutes a “takings”), and Monterey v. Del Monte Dunes, 526 US 687 (1999), 143 L.Ed. 2d 882 S.Ct. (1998). In the Monterey case, the California private property owner was awarded $8 million for Code Enforcement’s illegal trespass and restriction of his business, and another $1.45 million for the aggravation of a forced sale.

Black’s Law Dictionary 5th Edition (page 1140): Recaption. At Common Law, a retaking or taking back. A species of remedy by the mere act of the party injured (otherwise termed “reprisal”), which happens when anyone has deprived another of his property in goods or chattels personal, or wrongfully detains one’s wife, child, or servant. In this case, the owner of the goods, and the husband, parent, or master may lawfully claim and retake them, wherever he happens to find them, so it be not in a riotous manner, or attended with a breach of the peace. Prigg v. Pennsylvania, 41 U.S. (16 Pet) 539, 612, 10L.Ed. 1060.



If you allow the vehicle on your property you allow whatever is in it on your property as well and you do not have the right or authority to search ones private property, the vehicle though carrying a split title is none the less construed to be subject to the beneficial donor. (you) as owner in equity.

If you operate a public or quasi public anything you forfeit your right to stop anyone from coming onto your property with an arm, however if your property is purely private that is not the case.

Now even residential property is quasi public, by force of the gubafia.

George nailed this one bang on target!

You need to understand the way concurrent law works.

My lack of knowledge of her ability, OR LACK THEREOF...given the odds, means that yes, it fucking sucks that she lost loved ones but the odds have it that there is a good chance, if she'd been shooting back, more innocent people might also have died.

And how you may, or may not feel about my mortality does not match my own for you, or any one else. I have no emotional attachment to your mortality, or any other random stranger's.

Bad things happen. Bad things happen to both good and bad people. It is reality and will always be reality. Regardless of whether or not you like it.

*edited to add.....you seem to be making the assumption that bad sucky things have not happened in my 50 years of life.

Allowing armed invasion implies, in context, permitting an illegal act. An oxymoron by definition. There are armed invasions though, by criminals (and sometimes even government peoples).

You really are emotional, aren't you?

LOL.

Now making an observation is "emotional."

You guys are SO hyper-defensive about this. Insecurity 101.

When you can't answer the point, you have a weak position. <-- Use this handy red flag.
