Oddly enough, it is legal for an 18 year old to own a handgun. We trust 18 yr olds to do many things. Why can't they buy a handgun? They can buy a shotgun or a rifle but not a handgun? It's stupid.Then he should join the army.
And now the Court has ruled, any store owner caught selling guns to 18-year-olds will go to jail.
Two of the cases were NRA backed, not three. People will donate. It helps to protect their Constitutional Right.This this will come up again? One of these court cases started in 2008, and now the NRA is going to have to explain to its donors about the waste of money that went to fighting the law in three different courts. I doubt they'll be able to convince them to donate for another four-year battle when the opportunity ever comes up again...
Gun Control types have also failed to tip the courts fully in their favor as well. And lax would be the wrong word. It's sensible gun laws.IF it does. Even Scalia is pro-gun control, and he's getting old. I doubt that the next Justice will favor lax gun laws, especially since the GOP's first goal is trying to come to a situation where they control Congress and the White House enough to appoint a pro-life Justice will be nominated (and for over forty years, they've failed to tip the Court fully in their favor on that one).
We'll see.They're going to be in for a big disappointment when a Justice actually has to retire.
As for the Ukraine, LDS, you do know, of course, that their president was just ousted in a coup and he's a fugitive now? Yanukovych was as different from our President as night is to day.
And some of the people behind the coup want to add a 2nd Amendment type law to their constitution. They recognize the importance of it.
