What gun freedoms would you give up? - Page 2 - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Ive lived in Europe, so your options dont hold much for me, since we are still not as expensive as Germany was in the 1980s...

Besides, in all honesty, any gun owner that is willing to give up anything, anything at all, should be beat. The right is guaranteed us, with NO restrictions, quite similar to how the media uses THEIR rights.
Ok..a bit different...but the fact remains, why would you be willing to compromise on a part of the Constitution.......
I dont follow your logic sir.

The Bradys are not willing to compromise...nor am I, and as of right now, I/We still have the upper hand....they dont.

Bah!

The above is very well put and thought provoking!

Maybe we're like frogs that would jump out of boiling water if droped in, but remain in warm water as it slowly came to a boil....

Yeah, I'm with everyone else here.
I abstained from voting.
We've already given up enough and have gotten nothing in return.

What part of the 2nd Amendment don't you understand

**NC Dave** · 04-25-2008, 07:31 PM

Give up nothing.

Besides, how in the heck could anyone "Guarantee that gas will go back down to $2 per gallon?" Be taxed 10 times a much so that the government could then subsidize gas prices?!?!? No Thanks - it is just too silly.

Poll OptionsJust curious, nothing good on TV, so...
Free prescriptions, generic and name brand
No tax money given to people without job for more than 6 months
No more welfare for women with no job and more than 3 kids
Guarantee that gas will go back down to $2 per gallon
No more jobs to be sent overseas to exploit cheap labor
All CCW holder can carry on campus(all levels of education)

? What does Poll Questions have to do with the Title :

"WHAT GUN FREEDOMS WOULD YOU GIVE UP"

To me the thread is misleading as all questions have no bearing on the Gun Freedoms with the exception of CCW Holder carry on School Campus.

My response as a CCW holder is the same as someone else mentioned above NONE of my Gun Freedoms as there enough laws on the books presently. Just Enforce the ones on the books now.

The only new legislation I would support at this time is the bill in either both or one of the Houses of Congress, which would make it legal for CCW Holders to carry in all fifty states plus D.C. without the fear of confiscation and/or imprisonment. It would simplify conceal carry laws Nationwide.
