Apparently "not infringed" now means "mandatory"

QuoteFive South Dakota lawmakers have introduced legislation that would require any adult 21 or older to buy a firearm "sufficient to provide for their ordinary self-defense."
The bill, which would take effect Jan. 1, 2012, would give people six months to acquire a firearm after turning 21. The provision does not apply to people who are barred from owning a firearm.
Nor does the measure specify what type of firearm. Instead, residents would pick one "suitable to their temperament, physical capacity, and preference."
The measure is known as an act "to provide for an individual mandate to adult citizens to provide for the self defense of themselves and others."
Rep. Hal Wick, R-Sioux Falls, is sponsoring the bill and knows it will be killed. But he said he is introducing it to prove a point that the federal health care reform mandate passed last year is unconstitutional.
I'm not sure this proves any kind of point whatsoever, except politicians in America are exceedingly stupid and partake in grandstanding with other people's money for shits and giggles.
South Dakota would be a good place to test the effects of mandatory gun ownership
Because pretty much nobody lives there.
FFS, just another peacock strutting his tail feathers. I wonder how much his stupid is costing the state?
I guess we will all have to start shouting FIRE in crowded theaters. I believe it is now mandatory, for preservation of Free Speech.
We call it the mutually assured destruction tactic.
We observed that on a global scale that while tense, the countries who held MAD over each other had little to no violent activity.
We want this to filter down through every level of society. With MAD in place on the streets we would see less purse snatching, less stabbings even less verbal disagreements.
No longer will you have to worry about someone bumping into you on the street when they are moody, they wouldn't dream of it when you can open fire on them in retaliation.
Nevermind the fact that one is at the federal level and the other is at the State level. You know, like that Health Care Reform thing they have going on in Massachussetts.

Optimist. Rome was in the same boat in 50 BCE. We have another couple of hundred years of flailing around like syphlitic idiots, I think, though life will get tougher within the next 20 years.

Correction:
People fuck faster when you shoot at them.
Those that survive anyway.
Also, shooting others makes people fuck faster too.
Basically people fuck faster when they're stressed.

Yeah, but at least you'll get a 16 year or so break. Until they get their licences.
Unless, of course, in the meantime the GOP decide driving licences are a sign of liberal fascism and the creeping Sovietization of America.

QuoteGeorgia State Rep. Bobby Franklin is sponsoring the Right to Travel Act, which includes this clause:
QuoteFree people have a common law and constitutional right to travel on the roads and highways that are provided by their government for that purpose. Licensing of drivers cannot be required of free people because taking on the restrictions of a license requires the surrender of an inalienable right.
He can't be serious, right?
"One of your inalienable rights is the right to travel, the right to move about without needing your papers," Franklin told WSB in Atlanta. "You shouldn't have to have permission from the state to exercise a right that has been inalienably given to you from your creator."
At least one of 'em is already on it.
