MessageSince we have already debated the issue shall we move to a vote while we continue to do so?

MessageA registration system would be wise, but we would need proper enforcement, but...at what cost? Maybe attach the gun license to a driver's license? But, either way, privacy of our people should not be violated.

MessageFirearm use needs to be regulated, my party believes that the law shoul dbe extended to ban friearms use by all except those who professionally require them but this is a suitable compromise.

Licences should be shown before people can buy guns.

MessageThey should never be banned, but we are not opposed to this. Regulation drives criminals underground without punishing law-abiding citizens. Complete bans just create a black market.

MessageMany regulations are better than none.

ToDebating the Firearms Licensing
MessageA few regulations are better than none, but many are worse than none. These licenses should extend no further than minimal safety training and a criminal background check.

MessageCriminal background checks already exist that is but obvious ...why can't we make it mandatory to have training in the private sector instead?

Message"Adult individuals are allowed to own and purchase guns freely."
makes no mention of any sort of check though.

MessageWell I am not opposed to that ..what I am opposed to is a license which will take atleast a week to arrive. If you want i'll pass the original bill stating background checks explicity along with mandatory training ....but please don't leave people to the tender mercies of bureaucrats.
