They’re using the “they’re not old enough to buy a beer, but they're old enough to buy an assault rifle” line. I’d say “if they’re old enough to vote, old enough to take out a loan, and old enough to fight for this country, then they’re old enough to protect their house.”
It’s all about one-upping these idiots.
Hasn't she been 100 for like 30 years now!?! Her & Ginsburg. What gives!?!
We need to reintroduce personal responsibility into US culture.
I think we also have a lot of delayed adolescence these days. I don't agree with the varying ages for drinking, voting, signing up to possibly die for your country, etc., etc.The problem isn't that buyers are too young now. The problem is that guns have been pushed out of the youth culture of responsibility. Our youth should be trained and comfortable with rifles. This would engage the youth and adults together and build a shared trust. Then it would be easier for everyone to spot the outliers who need more attention. We need to reintroduce personal responsibility into US culture.
The thing that needs to change here is the age to buy a beer, and the age to buy a handgun. If adulthood starts at 18, everything should be at 18.This is bullshit. So many kids get their rifles at that age and don’t do a damn thing except hunt and target shoot. A win for her in this department will be her tasting blood and giving the Dems more inspiration for more bills.

Republicans should introduce an amendment repealing highway funding provisions of the National Minimum Legal Drinking Act of 1984.The thing that needs to change here is the age to buy a beer, and the age to buy a handgun. If adulthood starts at 18, everything should be at 18.DiFi said:"If you can't buy a handgun or a bottle of beer, you shouldn't be able to buy an AR-15," she said. "This is common sense and I hope my Republican colleagues will join me in this effort."
Guaranteed. Such a bill could be as simple as ""In 18 U.S.C. § 922(b)(1), (c)(1)...That is what the bill is going to be portrayed as, then with the same name only with "....and for other purposes." tacked on it will include a whole pile of other stuff.
18 U.S.C. § 922(b)(1) said:any firearm or ammunition to any individual who the licensee knows or has reasonable cause to believe is less than eighteen years of age, and, if the firearm, or ammunition is other than a shotgun or rifle, or ammunition for a shotgun or rifle, to any individual who the licensee knows or has reasonable cause to believe is less than twenty-one years of age
See post #16.The thing that needs to change here is the age to buy a beer, and the age to buy a handgun. If adulthood starts at 18, everything should be at 18.

Whittle any at the 2A. That c*** has picked at it forever. She should be tossed out on her ass. I hope one day she needs to be saved by a firearm and there isn’t one available.
She's a hypocrite. She's one of few chosen ones in San Fran who has a carry permit
edit: I stand corrected. She used to have one but states she no longer does.

I have no problem with background checks - the kind that this guy passed - the kind that the locals could or should have reported to or that the FBI should have added to with their reports. I do have a problem that every time this comes up, they want to include a registry - never a good idea.
