Remember .. it's not really about "gun control" ... it's about "control".
Yeah... no shit.

How did these people get into a position of power without even having the basic knowledge learned in a high school government class? :icon_rage
Must have been one of those "kinder & gentler" classes where they were more concerned about feeling all warm and fuzzy about eachother's feelings.
There are only 7 FFL holders in DC, 1 of which is the ATF and 2 of which are theater companies. So, I don't think DC residents are realistically going to be able to buy handguns "legally" and get them shipped to a local FFL anytime soon.

Another DC FFL holder in that search which will probably not get you a cheap transfer is http://www.gunslive.com/dealerlocator/results_details.php?id=111&dist=1 miles
The phone number and name match the executive director and PAO contact number for the Violence Policy Center. Wonder why gun grabbers would need a FFL - maybe he was hedging his financial bets on the outcome of the case
?
How many FFL's do you think it takes?? 10?? 15?? 500??
It only takes one.
And why the "legally" ...?? Is there any other way?? I'm certain you mean ... legally, without the quotation marks.
I meant rather legally with emphasis, not quotation marks.
Not everyone with an FFL will do a transfer for random Joe citizen, and having just a few around makes it likely that they can charge an exorbitant fee.
It was mentioned before in this thread but three pages ago just isn't frequent enough. This would not have happened if a President Obama where appointing Justices. Justice Stevens is 88 years old!. Justice Ginsburg has some health issues. They are both hanging on for a DEM in the White House. Not only must you vote this November but you must actively participate by talking to friends and neighbors and contributing what money you can to an organization you can stomach that will help elect McCain. Forget the economy, health care, drilling or social security. If Obama is elected the supreme court of 2010 will start to dismantle your rights. A vote for McCain is a vote for more victories like this one.

Change I can belive in
Unions. Chicago is run by the unions. Heck i didnt even live downtown and i had joined two of them in my pre full time job days.
And in that same vein, im not so sure my vote counts for much if i vote for McCain.
I am afraid I don't get your comment. I did just get back from a run in 90+ degree heat so my brain is a little fried. (My keyboard will be if I keep dropping sweat on it.)
I have stated before that I am against ALL gun laws, because they are redundant. We already have laws in place to cover anything that you could do wrong with a gun. Murder is murder, it doesn't matter if you use a knife, a baseball bat or a gun.
I noticed that it was mentioned that the SCOTUS ruling distanced gun ownership from the statement in the 2nd Amendment about militias. Anybody want to guess why? If they would have tied gun ownership to militias, they would have created a precedent by which the Federal laws on automatic weapons could be challenged. It would have opened the door for ownership of military weapons.

And least we forget the so called Fairness Doctrine, the intent of which is to limit Free Speech when it involves conservatives. Seems I recall the Obama campaign refused to allow Fox News into several events, refused to participate in a Fox News sponsored event.
Just vote!
