Does your doctor ask you if you have guns in your home?

[QUOTE=DohcBikes;1296059]To address some of the above,,,,,,,,

Yep you guessed it, I smoke, a lot. Interesting how someone could come to that conclusion without me ever having mentioned it here before, other than in "private" messages with other members.........

It's amazing what some people will admit to on a public forum and in PMs, especially after all of the crap that is going down with the NSA.

The Boston lock downs were an emergency response to a terrorist threat, again, no comparison here.

One wounded punk b!tch is a terrorist threat? Talk about the pussification of America.

The FBI was informed well in advance of the attacks about the main guy who had gone to the middle east to attend one of those terrorist training camps, and they failed to do their job to monitor his activity. If they had done their job, the attack never would have happened. But it's OK to trample peoples constitutional rights because the government didn't do their job in the first place.

I don't have to buy a hunting licence anymore, because as an AVID hunter and gun owner, I felt it was my responsibility to the Game and parks commission to pledge my support by purchasing a LIFETIME hunting permit and a LIFETIME habitat stamp, you got one??????

*sigh* My comment about hunting licenses has nothing to do with asking you how you support gun rights or ownership, it has to do with the governments ability to tie your medical history to your firearms related activities. Government accessible medical records, drivers license,SS#, hunting license purchased by showing your drivers license to confirm identity, mood altering medication prescribed by doctors, etc.

If you admit on your 4473 that you smoke pot you can't buy a firearm. That's mild compared to some of the meds doctors can prescribe.

As far as answering your question about hunting licenses, no I don't have a lifetime hunting permit and a lifetime habitat stamp for Arizona. But I started hunting in Minnesota when I was 12 and purchase my licenses on a yearly basis dependent on what kind of hunting I plan on doing each year, so, yes I support my local hunting and habitat management agencies.

I'm a Lifetime member of the NRA, are you?
Supporting your local hunting and habitat management agencies is fine, but it does nothing for gun rights and the support of the Second Amendment:

A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

See anything about hunting in there?

Hunting rights will fall to the wayside as a result of gun control, not vice versa. Why do you think PETA and other animal rights groups support gun control? Control and/or eliminate guns, less cute furry little animals get hunted. It's a means to an end and that's how Progressives/Liberals work. They don't care whose rights they violate, as long as they get what they want and THEIR rights don't get violated.

Well it was pretty much implied (if one does not fail to read between the lines, sometimes perhaps intentionally) so I figure instead of beating around the bush and being accused of hiding my identity or personal information for any reason other than security (which seems to be a trend here) I'd just tell you.

Its just another part of NOT BEING AFRAID of the government as far as I'm concerned.

Personally I could not care less what someone sees me type on the internet. I'd gladly post my social security number here if it wasn't completely unnecessary to prove my point.

I'll let y'all speculate as to whether I'm a member of the NRA.

I buy guns all the time with no paperwork.What's a 4473? I'm not being facetious, I really don't know. I could have looked it up, but I figured hey I have the experts right here, why don't I just ask them.

Have you guys ever been to Arizona? I can ride my motorcycle with no helmet and a pistol on my hip right next to a cop and not get a second glance. I regularly stand in line at the bank next to people with pistols on their hips. That one was weird to get used to.

Obviously your views on guns and legislature will be different.

It seems maybe you think I'm too dim to comprehend what you are saying? I realize you were making the connection between the hunting licence and the giving of information. That's why I made it clear that I don't have to give that info every year. If they use the info I gave to get MY hunting licence, that will be searching for guns three states away. And for your info, I got my lifetime permit before I got my drivers liscence.

Quietly owning guns? Easy.

And there are many "quiet" guns in the desert.

But here in town they sure are loud, I hear about 10-20 gunshots per night on average.

A question for ya, how many of the people in this thread have been imprisoned for an extended length of time? Maybe that's another reason I'm not afraid of what they can do to me.

I have no children and never will,(which is my personal contribution to solving EVERY PROBLEM WE HAVE) does that factor in here? I think it might automatically make a difference of opinion with someone that does, simply because I only have to be concerned with myself if I get in trouble.

Oh to someday get to the promised land! I wish my state had HALF that tolerance for private citizens when it comes to firearms.....

Honestly I thought Nebraska was pretty lenient until I got here. It seriously still lives up to the name "Wild West". What few laws there are here are regularly ignored.

But I'll say this, if you DO screw up here, the cops will draw on you in a second, among other things.

I DIGRESS, Now there's a story I won't tell on the internet....

As they should... Because with rights comes responsibility.

If you are buying your guns face to face in private purchases then no, you wouldn't know what a 4473 is, and more power to ya. The more guns you can purchase without a paper trail the better. A lot of people up here have been convinced by anti gunners that if you sell guns face to face you are selling your guns to gangbangers and murderers, so there seem to be less and less face to face sales in our state as time goes on, except for the more hardcore progunners

Open carry and riding motorcycles without a helmet (and both at the same time ) are legal here in MN. Although open carry is not as prevalent as in AZ.

Did plenty of stupid sh!t when I was younger and landed in jail a couple of times, but never been in prison, let alone for an extended time. Never had any desire to do the kind of stuff that lands you in prison. I value my freedom too much.

You are correct, not having kids does and will make a big difference if the S ever HTF.

Married but no kids, wife couldn't have them otherwise we'd probably have a couple. Even if I have kids, it wouldn't change how I would defend my Rights and Freedoms. Trying to punish you, me, Ride Red, and other responsible gun owners for the crimes committed by criminals is BS. If I'm going to be a criminal, it'll be my choice, not a bunch of candy politicians.

"If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything", "Better to die on your feet than live on your knees" etc, etc.

You and I are more than likely on the same page more than it appears.

[DohcBikes]

For some reason it seems like we just had a discussion about guns where no one completely agreed with each other, and no one got angry or started hurling insults.

I'm hoping that's what just happened, I just dont remember the last time I saw it.

Backing verrryyy slowwwly out of the room.........

[Scootertrash]

Lol
Even if we don't see eye to eye completely, I'm more than happy to have you on my side

If you're ever up this way, look me up and I'll buy ya a beer or two if you're so inclined, or a soda.

[300rman]

They don't have the man power to take our guns. There's too many of us with the "from my cold dead hands mentality".

As far as "people like me" there are probably not too many since my views on politics and guns are not educated, and often sound contradictory. I'm very happy not many are like me.

Its not something I'm willing to argue about...... I'm too busy getting ready to go shoot my Ak-47 and my SKS. I'll deal with it when they show up asking for em I guess.

No. too many people will see the few "extremists" get lit up, and plastered all over the news for months, the rest will fall into place and simply turn over.....

They arent going to turn up while you are home.....they will raid you while you are at work. Simple as that!

[DohcBikes]

I work at home, haha gotcha there bro.

[Chopsaw]

I have a lot of guns . Most are world war 2 collection . I have thousands of rounds to services all of them . M1 Garand , M1 Carbine , K98 Mauser , Springfield 03a3, Lee Enfield , Mosien Nagant carbine , plus a lot of hand guns and modern assault rifles . I'm not worried at all . My guns are safe with me . They know I have them , I'm not worried about it .

[DohcBikes]

111 degrees??? Thats a chilly day in the summer lol... The reported temps hit 120 regularly. My infared thermometer usually reads about 170 degress on the asphalt on the hottest days.

Id say at head level walking its around 130-140 degrees on the hot days.

I am not about to comment on Joe Arpaio in this thread

The bangers here are rampant, aint nobody stopping them now. When i take my dog to the park in the morning i always try to clean all the trash because it shares a fence with a grade school, and the kids walk through the park by the dozens before and after school. Ive thrown away more bags and crack pipes and other paraphanalia than i can begin to count, and the other day i had the pleasure of going twice.

There was a bag on one of the benches with a half filled needle. As i mentioned before, im not going bring the police to where i am for any reason if i can help it, and im also not going to leave this dirty needle laying on the park bench for a kid to grab, so i went home and got some ziplocks to put over my hand and i went back and dropped it in a pop can, crushed it, put the can in the bags and buried it at the bottom of the fullest trash can.

i wish we could do more about the real drugs, the ones that ruin your life and make you insensitive to others. My suggestions on this matter would be extreme and unacceptable, so i dont know.

[Scootertrash]

C'mon D! Everyone knows what the demon weed will do to ya!!
Haven't you ever seen Reefer Madness?

[DohcBikes]

Several times scooter^^....... and it gets funnier every time! Its a comedy right?.......hmmmm...Maybe I should watch it BEFORE smoking sometime

Seriously though kids, just say no. To propaganda.......
