We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

It would be a crime to even think about rewriting our holy document that is being interpreted as obtuse as possible. The children should instead continue dying.
It would be a crime to disarm the people, but you're for that particular crime, right? Cant have the people able to defend themselves, right?
Some people should be disarmed (domestic abusers, felons, people who fail to prove themselves capable of safely owning a gun), and some people shouldn’t be disarmed because they are safe gun owners. That isn't a crime, that's common sense.
The chances of a gun saving your life are minimal, and are far outweighed by the fact that everyone having guns increases the need to defend yourself in the first place.
I don't have a problem with people (idiotically) owning guns for "self protection", but a minimum you should be able to prove you can safely own it and use it.
We used to have those kinds of laws. They were called Jim Crow laws.
Also, that's called a poll tax, and it's still considered racist today.
But of course, that's what gun control is, isn't it? Racism with some good PR behind it.
Are drivers liscenses racist too?
Theres an argument. Hell, requiring ID, like a drivers license, to vote is considered racist.
That's not what I'm getting at. Motor vehicles, being a dangerous tool that can lead to deaths, they require a level of training to safely operate.
Is it racist to require people to have drivers licenses to drive? Is it racist to take then away when people prove themselves incapable of operating them safely?
Firearms are protected by the 2nd amendment. It’s a right. Driving is a privilege.
My question is about what the law SHOULD be not what it IS.
The laws are fine as they are. They just need to be enforced

Quite a number of children would beg to differ. I'm sure their classmates would feel the same.
That’s not my problem to solve. Stop trying to defund the police and not enforcing the law strictly.
And if they’re dead. They can’t beg to differ.
Facts don't care about their feelings. Sorry pal
I'll remember that the next time an abortion debate comes up.
