Conservative New Orleans court ruling for people between 18 and 21 comes amid major shifts in firearm legal landscape
So they lowered the earliest buying age from 21 to 18? You can join the military at 18 (not that I think that’s a particularly sane thing either), so this makes a vague amount of sense.
Why are there comments here acting like they removed the age minimum entirely?
Is it unethical if they sell the kids rainbow coloured “fascist-seeking” rounds?
If you can’t be trusted with a gun you shouldn’t be in the military. No more of this “you’re an adult only when it’s convenient for us” crap.
I shot myself in the arm at age 3 with a pellet gun.
I learned to use a rifle at age 10, with full out safety training.
I learned to fix guns in machine shop at age 17.
As much as I’ve learned about weapons in my life, I still don’t trust 93% of people with access to them.
I mean… in the military you get training and supervision. Us civies can just walk out the shop with a brand new rifle: no training, few questions asked.
Then provide training?
Requiring training and a license to own a gun? That would go to court as being unconstitutional.
Yea, my opinions of you need to be X or Y age to do A or B boils down to: “IDC, just pick one got dang number and stick to it”
I believe we would live in a much better world if gunpowder and the gun had never been invented.
Would we? That still leaves a lot of weapon types open for business.
Gotta imagine there’d be a lot less mass murders at school if we taught the kiddos to assume the Testudo in response to one crazy with a sword.
You’re right. We need to ban sticks and rocks immediately!
I was thinking chemical weapons, but okay.
You’re right, farts are banned immediately!
Good idea, you have my vote.
What about fists? Anyone can make one and throw it without any license
A terrifying thought.
