The exact details of such a program, in every possible situation, I don't know. We're talking in general terms, which should be enough unless you want to nit-pick it to death instead of just arguing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09806175370305006933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-4515247466278629382010-12-02T22:01:54.364+01:002010-12-02T22:01:54.364+01:00What is he doing spraying solvent on a fully assem...What is he doing spraying solvent on a fully assembled gun?<br /><br />MikeB, I am addressing one of your comments in Japete’s blog to you here since not all comments go through there:<br /><br /><i>Brett asked me, "what other misdeameanor convictions do you think should result in a permanent deprivation of a constitutional right."<br /><br />All misdemeanors with a gun. At the judge's discretion some paperwork crimes or other really minor deviations might be overlooked.<br /><br />All misdemeanor violence whether in the home or not.<br /><br />Of course, one negligent discharge of a weapon also results in loss of rights even if no misdemeanor is involved.<br /><br />I think that'll do it.</i><br /><br />I get that you draw the line at misdemeanors while I draw it at felonies- fine, it is consistent with you beliefs on gun ownership. But I have big problems with your first line. Often times this will mean someone losing their gun rights for the crime of… owning a gun. There are way too many misdemeanors (and even felonies) that vary from state to state and locale to locale regarding the ownership of guns (as opposed to crimes while using guns). Can we at least agree to only strip away rights for doing something wrong- something MORALLY or negligently wrong?TSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-14409145674457602422010-12-02T18:34:49.481+01:002010-12-02T18:34:49.481+01:00I'm pretty sure he already learned the best le...I'm pretty sure he already learned the best lesson he could in this case.Colinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04410036643192254380noreply@blogger.com
