kelpdiver 2 #51 March 6, 2006 Quote San Francisco, CA just passed a law (it is on hold and will be challenged in court) that bans firearm possession by those living in the city. This law orders the surrender of privately owned firearms to the city for destruction -- with no compensation to be made. the ban is only on handguns, though sale and transfers of all weapons would be banned. The latter part might have better odds of surviving. Judge may not answer until June. He asked the city to delay all implementation until his verdict. Not sure it answered. I'm not really sure how a resident is defined. I live in SF and have a lease. But I am registered to vote and for DMV across the bay. I suspect that I'd lose if I tried to claim I wasn't a resident, but it's an interesting thought. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelpdiver 2 #54 March 6, 2006 Quote I gotta admire the cool detachment in the face of having one's Constitutional right taken away... much healthier than flying off the handle constantly, before the courts are given the opportunity to do what even the supporters expect (toss).

MooChooser 0 #59 March 7, 2006 QuoteActually Jeffrey is not a loon...he has his points of interest and is willing to explain himself fully... I wish others were capable of the same He has his points of interest, that much is obvious however, I dont think his explanations explain his arguement fully. He obviously likes to debate on this forum and seems willing to ignore the facts in order to do so. What I find to be a little "eccentric" about all of this though, is that its the same thread every time...with many of the same posters argueing with him. Dont get me wrong, I find it amusing not annoying. I guess my post was taken in a bad tone because of the context. I should have just kept my keyboard untyped on. Sorry.

So if I piss someone off in the US - say by accidently denting their car - then I might get shot and you think thats a good thing? And you also think that a very high gun murder rate is an incentive not to commit a crime? What the hell were you actually trying to say?If you ACCIDENTLY do it that's OK. If you are a uncareing ignorant moron and do it I MAY shoot you. But only if you threatin me firstI hold it true, whate'er befall; I feel it, when I sorrow most; 'Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all.

QuoteAbout 30 miles from where I live there is the quiet town of Napoleonville. It has no more than 3 or 4 traffic signals and is located in a very rural area. An officer was killed this week in this quiet place, during an arrest of a drug suspect The police officer was working wednesday with seven other narcotics task force deputies on Georgette Street south of Napoleonville. The officer and another deputy approached suspected drug dealers parked illegally on the street. When the deputies walked toward the car, the driver put the vehicle in reverse, speeding down the street backward until it ran off the road into a ditch. The other deputy and the slain officer tried to arrest the driver who fought the other deputy, trying to take his gun away. During the struggle, the gun discharged, striking the slain officer in the upper chest just above his bullet-proof vest. The driver was booked with first-degree murder, aggravated flight from an officer and possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine. Might add some fuel to the debate.
