Attention CD5 voters

Keep the below email from Democrat candidate in CD5 Jay Fawcett in mind when going to the polls this Tuesday

"Weapon safety is an important issue. All weapons should be sold with trigger locks. All weapons should be fingerprinted for both ballistics and pin strike on the cartridge at the factory and the data should be turned over to the FBI. Caliber and rate of fire should be the determining factors in whether or not you need a Federal Firearms license to purchase a weapon.

Thanks for your patience. We get many request for information and we do try to answer everyone in a timely manner.

Jay Fawcett"

And we should require all candidates running for office to pass a test regarding their knowledge of the Constitution of the United States, Bill of Rights and the applicable state constitution...... :twisted:

If they fail, they walk the plank? [pirate]

Perhaps requiring all candidates for office to submit their fingerprints and DNA to the national crime database would be applicable? I can hear the squeals of protest from polititicians now.

Problem is that human fingerprints and DNA do not change but the marks a firearm make alter over time and with mechanical alterations.

A criminal who uses a Glock to commit a crime can change the barrel and dump the suspect barrel in a dumpster. It goes to the landfill never to be seen again. Cops test the gun, negative ballistics test. Criminal is guilty but walks.

The obvious anti-gunner response would be to criminalize changing barrels. Criminal counter response would be to fire a few rounds of ammo coated with some abrasive. It wouldn't take much to alter the marks enough to show a jury "look, not the same gun!"

Anyone supporting widespread "fingerprinting" of firearms clearly doesn't understand the worthlessness of the system. Anyone supporting microstamping clearly doesn't understand the worthlessness of that system.

What works is locking up the bad guys and keeping them locked up. Letting them out due to overcrowding, plea bargaining and squealing on one another is really working against society.

I tend to listen to NRA News online every weeknight. Cam Edwards is the host and one of his daily features is "The Deal Of The Day" where he takes a newspaper story about a criminal who commits serious crime and gets a slap on the wrist. Very, very often the criminals profiled are not people who were strangers to the law. They were career criminals with multiple convictions. They work the system, plea bargain and are back to commit more serious crime after only a short stint in prison. These aren't accusations. These are convictions. God only knows what these guys did that wasn't proven in court.

I like this idea!

I say we bring back public execution for 'em!

Hey Hyunchback,

Unfortunatly alot of these clowns do know how worthless these programs are. But they are either pandering to the stupid or trying to make it so diffucult and expensive to own a firearm or ammo that most people won't bother. The ones who will go through the hassle are easily identified by the registration or whatever scheme the politicians come up with.

Just like Cali, NY, NJ and other places that have registered owners or guns or both now know who and where most everything is. Once they change the law they know who to send the letters to for turn-in. Like Boxer or Fienstein said if I could do it "I would say Mr. and Mrs American turn in your guns".

Now those same assclowns are now in power.
