Does /k/ support any prerequisites to obtaining a firearm? Like background checks, mandatory safety training, mental health check etc?
>>
Nope.
>>
Nope.
If you're too dangerous to own a gun, you shouldn't be on the streets.

That said, I think gun shops would do well to at least offer safety training with purchases.
>>
No.

I'm ultimately against any kind of intelligence test for firearm ownership but sometimes I hear shit in the local gun shop that makes me reconsider the issue.
>>
If you're not a violent felon, or violently crazy/mentally handicapped you should be able to buy any firearm.

While that's not realistic in this world, I'll settle for getting rid of the NFA and Hughe's Amendment if that meant having soem dumb UBC law.
>>
>>29638513
has any of that shit actually ever prevented homicide/mass shootings?
>>
Money or trade in the amount of the price should be a prerequisite.

>>29638541
I'm sure people have died because of improper safety training, yes.
>>
>>29638541
Not in America

Maybe in some tiny homogenous Eurocuck country somewhere, but not here.
>>
>>29638513

While the 2nd amendment as written implies a nation-wide ban on any gun control, I'd like to make some small concessions for concealed weapons. (Prohibition on rifles ignores a decade of aggregate crime data in the US.)

Sadly, those same restrictions on concealed weapons I like are usually defeated by the weapons being concealed. It's only useful for tacking on additional sentencing after a crime is committed, or harrasing otherwise law-abiding citizens.
>>
No.
>>
Of course there needs to be restrictions.

Reasonable measures like universal background checks, initial waiting period, registry etc.
>>
A safety course and licence should be required, just like for driving a car. Also no guns for anybody with a history of violent crime or mental instability.
>>

Get out cuckshit.

Show me where in the consitution there are preresquisite requirements for freedom of speech, due process, or owning and bearing arms.

We either
a) Are going to follow the constitution how is was written and intended

b) We are not going to follow the consitution and rule of law doesn't matter.

There is no in-between legally speaking. Any prerequisites are an infringement on the part where it says "shall not be infringed." There is no fine print.
>>
Just a background check is sufficient in my opinion.
>>
>>29638639

Even so, I see no harm in making sure that people know how to safely handle firearms. The licence can basically serve as proof that you completed the course.
>>
>>29638657
Do you need a license to speak freely?

Do you need a license to vote?
>>
>>29638513
Yes, I'd support some sort of universal background check/safety course system if a)it couldn't be used to form a registry of actual guns owned (by nature it would still unfortunately be a de facto registry of gun owners, but at least with plausible deniability) and b) all existing laws restricting firearms no longer apply. no taxes for silencers, SBR, FA, etc.
>>
>>29638513
Privately? No

From a dealer? As long as the background check takes all of 10 seconds like it does now, then I'm fine with it.

Mandatory safety training, mental health checks, background checks, that's about it.
>>
>>29638670
I don't think they were, the bill of rights is pretty clear.
However, the founding fathers and intellectuals at the time were strongly against despotism from the grave, which is the appeal that pro-gun people are making by referring to the constitution as being sacrosanct.

The only argument either side can make, should only be made when considering adding another amendment to restrict gun rights. If they cant pass the amendment, they shouldn't be able to touch the guns. If they can, well that's just how the country works.

This isnt accurate.

Cite me where the framers or founders felt this was the case. I have gone through all the federalist and anti federalists, the various writings, and the AoC and BoR and our consitution.

They never intended for "adaptation to changing times or conditions" and in fact they had specific easy to understand language so that it could no be misconstrued by future infringers.

They never had this intention and no where did the founders or framers consider the "living document" BS they now teach at universities.

You either support RoL or do not. We have a process of amending the consitution, the supreme law of the land.

Harassment is a meaningless word like hate speech. There is no 1st Amendment provision prohibiting "harassing" speech.

>muh nuclear weapons argument
no. The 2nd Amendment protects the right to KEEP and BEAR *arms*. Those words have meanings.

You can't "keep and bear" a nuclear weapon. It's not a weapon you can "bear".

Explosive devices could all be classified that way. They aren't "arms" that you can "keep and bear". You don't "bear" a grenade or a bazooka or a nuke.

>>29638721
this. if you don't like guns, then pass a constitutional amendment that overrides or amends the 2nd. Until then, "shall not infringe" is pretty simple.

It doesnt matter about your feelings or how hard it is to understand that we have rights.

Yes, until we amend the consitution a "mentally sick person" can own a gun.

>background checks
No, but they'd be nice to have as an option. Straw purchasing completely defeats doing this though.

>Mandatory safety training
Sounds like a good idea but no, knowing how to use the gun isn't what makes you safe, it's establishing safe habits. Also, if someone needs to defend themselves now, I don't want there to be some bullshit waiting period/licensing.

>mental health checks
Would be wonderful but our current psych/mental health system is shit. Most of the time psychologists are just pill dispensaries. I also don't like the idea of someone being able to arbitrarily say "NO GUNS FOR YOUUUUU" and then chalk it up to some BS unprovable condition. You'd have to have some appeal system. And even if all this is implemented, you could still have straw purchasing or simple theft of a firearm, which defeats this whole thing. For example, the sandy hook shooter was 17, couldn't buy a gun, and murdered his Mom to acquire them.

I know all this stuff sounds reasonable, but when you really think about these ideas, you discover they just don't work.
>>
>>29638788
Good point.

So really only the mentally unstable then.
>>

>>29638782
Ah i understand you now.

Well the supreme law of the land makes it so that law is null and void. Nobody challenging it is irrelevant.

The consitution is the supreme law and so called "laws" that violate it are not law at all

>>29638513
I'm okay with a background check, but only if it can be done quickly (no waiting period) and if a concealed carry permit takes its place.

Other then that, fuck no.
I also believe you should be able to purchase pistols at 18.
Rifles are more deadly anyways
>>
>>29638812
And yet even with background check requirements they still easily get guns.

>>29638513
You can't prevent felons from owning guns anyway. Finishing an 80% lower is easy as fuck.

I do think that a mandatory training certificate would be nice, however, in order to not infringe on the right to bear arms, it would have to be included in the middle school curriculum.

"Oh, what, Ms.SoccerMum? You think your child shouldn't be given firearms education? That's your decision ma'am, but you're barring her from owning a gun, ever. Good day ma'am."
(not true of course, adults could ask to take that class for free, but I wonder how she'd feel to have her kid's rights infringed, while other kids get to enjoy their 2nd amendment).

Get your certificate at 12. You can now enjoy guns forever.
>>
>>29638818
Exactly.

How hard would it be to take a 3-4 hour safety course (here in Texas we do 6 hour course for DL) before going to buy a gun?

People are so stupid everywhere it hurts anon.
>>
You know with all this debate about gun rights, it makes me wonder why the legislation doesn't creep on ammo sales and distribution instead if The Man is serious about gun control.

Sure it might jack up ammo prices but from an economic standpoint so would black market prices hence could potentially reduce illegal access to them from a financial standpoint.

You're missing the point.

Chicago has some of the strictest gun laws in the country, and they have wildly rampant gun violence.

It's like the old proverb, "Locks only stop the honest man".

Besides, as I've said, accidental gun deaths are exceedingly rare. ~600 a year, out of 300,000,000. Most gun deaths are on purpose. I don't see how safety courses would prevent that.

Murder rates would be more accurate when discussing gun laws, since guns are more often fatal than other weapons.

Look buddy, I'm not trying to take anyone guns away.


What I'm saying is we need stricter laws to buy them from a point in time. Stricter as in a course in safety right before buying it.

Hopefully we can even bar anyone with at least a high school degree without being able to purchase one. Then due time associates.

Illinois as a whole has extremely strict gun laws. People can't just waltz out of state, go to Fudd n Co. gun shop in the middle of Iowa or Indiana and buy a gun. You can't buy a gun with an out-of-state ID, you have to have some form of residency to buy a gun in the state your in.

A lot of the guns used in Crime come from Chicago. Gangs will take some kid with no criminal history, have him go through all the hoops to get a FOID card, and straw purchase through him. Either that, or they'll get a gun that's been in criminal circulation since the 90's.

tightening requirements to get the implements of self-defense disproportionately harms the lower classes: those who do not have the time or the money to spare to take a course, and yet simultaneously those who arguably need the right to self-defense the most. Raising barriers to entry will do more harm than good, and it will do that harm to those who are least able to recover.
>>
>>29638942
Why? What problem are you trying to solve?

As I've said several times already, only ~600 people are shot and killed accidentally each year.

>>29639001
>why should they even get a gun if they don't have the money?
because the right to self-defense is not derived from economic class or social standing. There's a reason companies like Hi-Point exist: they fulfill a market need.

>>29639001
It is already small enough.

If you want to save lives, why not start with the things that actually cause the most accidental deaths?

Pools cause over 6 times as many accidental deaths as guns.

>>29639001
It's not really an equivalent.

I got it because of medical issues, and could no longer stay in school. Most colleges won't accept it even with a SAT score of 2100. So I'm forced to do 2 years at a community college, then move on to a state school.

I'm patriotic as fuck, but hear me out. Some kind of one time basic knowledge test could benefit gun owners, and weaken gun centralization advocates.

Pretty often, we compare guns to cars to prove how retarded leftists are on gun control (picture related). So if they are so similar, then it likely makes sense that, like cars, there should be a very basic knowledge requirement to own them. The classes would be dirt cheap, but it could be subsidized for poor people (welfare recipients). It would be a simple quiz with 10 to 20 questions regarding safe use of firearms and how they work. You only need to get 80% of the questions correct to pass. Even idiots could pass it with some basic studying. I seriously doubt anyone wouldn't be able to own a gun because they were too stupid or poor to pass/take the test.

It is a good idea because there will be less dumbasses accidentally shooting themselves or otherwise furthering the cause of gun centralization advocates. So, in theory, this would, in a way, PROTECT gun rights.

The only way this could go wrong is if the class became too expensive over time, or if the requirements to pass were stricter.

Just something to consider. It has pros, but also cons.

FIRST, my personal belief is any non felon who hasn't exhibited and been diagnosed with serious nmental illness who has taken etiquette safety training should be able to own any rifle or hand gun on the market.

That being said.....
>Does /k/ support any prerequisites to obtaining a firearm?
Only the sane anons capable of rational thought with a firm grasp of logic. Only edgy underageB& anarchists think anyone should be able to walk into any LGS and walk out with a gun.This is the mark of an immature mind that has yet to grasp the complexities of civilized life in modern societies.

There will always be a percentage of humanity that is capable and willing to commit violence and denying the need to deal with them is inviting murder and mayhem into your communities.

We have driver education with testing that keeps you from behind the wheel in you can't achieve a certain lever of competency. Should we cease driver training because anyone who makes the effort can steal a car? This is the illogical thinking of those who say people can steal guns or otherwise acquire them illegally.

It's not a simple question and those who make short concrete statements are idiots.

Maybe adults are treated signifantly different,but I doubt it. The adult psych ward was next door and it seemed to work the same. I agree that mental illness shouldn't stop you from owning a gun,but we should at least have a system to stop really unstable people from owning guns. Maybe have a therapist or psychiatrist sign off on it if you have a history.

>This is the mark of an immature mind that has yet to grasp the complexities of civilized life in modern societies.
Your belief that gun control is in any way effective is the mark of a moron who's never taken a cursory glance at a crime statistic in his life. There is no gun control in modern history that has demonstrably reduced violent crime rates. It is a failed concept. When you cannot demonstrate that your restriction on freedom conveys some greater benefit, it is absolutely amoral.

But you see, what if the therapist is ardently anti-gun? You have some light depression, but love guns and shooting them, the hobby gives you satisfaction and improves your condition. Therapist finds out about this? NO MORE GUNS, FUCK YOU. People here in Finland have to literally choose between owning guns or going to a shrink, since getting treatment has a massive chance of you losing your guns.

1) You will never placate gun grabbers. They will just demand more. You'll institute your 30min course, and a year or two later, someone will get shot and there will be a media circus around it. They will then go right back to bitching about "common sense" gun reform.

>background checks

All this does is push felon firearm sales to the black market or private sales where it's harder to trace the sale. But this is only important in cases where the weapon is the key piece of evidence. But as long as it's illegal to sell guns to felons, fun stores need background checking systems to comply with the law and be safe from accusation. I'm also sure they don't like the idea of selling guns to felons either. What does bug me is our justice system has so many felonies that have nothing to do with violence, those people deserve guns when they've done their time.

>mandatory safety training, mental health check etc?

I love safety training but I prefer shall not be infringed.

Mental health checks are fucking impossible. The only reliable evidence someone is crazy is if it's in their medical record, which is not obtainable by anyone selling a firearm or even a court of law.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physician%E2%80%93patient_privilege

There's no way to know if someone is violent based off the fact they are crazy. Most crazy people aren't violent at all, and our society is now stigmatizing them.

There's also no due process system for that, you can't be convicted of being crazy. No due process means infringement. You'd have better luck taking guns from the legally blind, and they'll tell you to go fuck yourself.
>>

>You don't question a psychiatrists opinion on anything else they do.

Psychiatrists have a bad reputation for not knowing what the fuck they are talking about. They're just an opinion and someone to vent to for most patients. Even doctors who deal with hard science are commonly fucking morons.

You didn't answer his concerns either. A psychiatrist could be politically motivated in his opinion about you. And sick people could deliberately avoid treatment because of the potential to lose their rights/privileges. It's called phase 2. People strategize against the law and produce unintended consequences.
>>
>>29638513
No.

Anti-gunners love to implement "reasonable-sounding" policies and then abuse the shit out of them.

Mandatory safety training? Here, take this course that is only taught in one place in the state, costs $1200, and has a seven month wait time.

Mental health check? Have your rights revoked without due process because someone who hates you feels like calling the cops on you.

ANY increase in gun control, no matter how ostensibly minor, is an attempt to erode your 2nd amendment rights.

exactly.

The only people who should be trusted to deal with gun safety and accident prevention are pro-gun groups. Pro-gun groups can run training courses, safety courses, etc. like they already do. And you know, if people want the government to do something, have the government subsidize those courses and pay to advertise them. But no government regulations forcing them.

I could support a licence if it meant greater freedom for those who obtain a licence.

For example, having some sort of driver's test equivalent where you show up at your own expense, bring your ammo and gun, shoot some targets, prove you know how to not kill yourself, etc. would be totally fine if it meant I could buy SBRs and suppressors without the NFA ever being involved.

Let me take an "enhanced" firearm safety course and give me a gold star on my licence to purchase machine guns too.

I'm for any law abiding citizen owning any rifle or handgun on the market. I'm also in support of organized militia's having the same weapons and ordinance any platoon sized unit in the Army or Marine Corps has.

I just don't hide from the FACT that not everyone can live in a polite civilized society. Therefore we have to have laws.

That's not all. Note that you can't purchase a gun if you're a fugitive from justice. You can be classified a 'fugitive from justice' if you missed a court date for something minor, like a traffic citation.

>>29639533
I won't. For two reasons. First, If someone is too dangerous to trust with a gun, either because they're a violent felon or because they're mentally ill/disabled, they shouldn't be walking the streets. Even if your regulation manages to be 100% effective at preventing dangerous felons and the insane from getting guns, it won't stop them from getting knives, cars, or gasoline.

Second, as I explained before, it's never enough with gun grabbers. Say we acquiesce to whatever minor legislation you suggest. In 10 years, it'll be criticized for being full of "loopholes" and you'll be right back to crying about common sense gun reform.

I support background checks as long as they are free, near instantaneous, and no record of it kept. It is the only thing that prevents a criminal with a record from strolling into a gun store and walking out with what he wants.

Actually yes. We had privately owned top of the line warships in the 18th century.

I think the american constitution would allow you to own artillery. I'm not sure that's such a good idea..

I don't think mentally ill people (tough call on who counts) should own guns. But I also think they should be making that call during their sane moments. There should be the possibility to write yourself out of gun ownership.
And writing yourself back in. Just put up a voluntary barrier.
>>
>>29640162
here's what the laws would be if they were constitutional and logical:

1) all vehicles are permitted. So yes, privately owned tanks, ships, fighter jets, etc. This is already the case.

2) all ARMS are legal to own AND carry. ARMS includes weapons that you are able to keep and "bear". So no, you're not allowed a crew-served artillery cannon (debatable though), or have the gun on your tank operational, because that's not an ARM that you can BEAR, it's a weapon mounted on a vehicle. A machine gun, however, would be fine. So yes, privately owned humvees with .50 cals. would be fine.

3) nukes or large bombs, explosives, missiles, etc. are not protected because A) they are pretty much never ARMS that you can KEEP or BEAR. You can't "bear" a missile, it's a heavy weapon with a launcher. A nuke or even a large bomb is also not an ARM that you can BEAR, but further, the radioactive material and/or the specific explosive material would not be protected.

the gaps and grey areas would be with explosives. Is a grenade launcher allowed? Rocket launchers? Cannons? Hard to say. That's the big grey area.

but everything else is solved. ALL man-portable firearms are allowed. The key is KEEP and BEAR. They define the term "ARMS"

>>29640240
maybe. but we can't know because it didn't happen. We can only go based on how the constitution IS, not how it may have been
>>
>>29640224
Maybe one day they will be back. I know I grew up in California and was blessed with a childhood away from the liberalism and I was actually taught good values and educated about firearms in an fun and educational manner that encouraged it to become a life long hobbie.

Yes it has a double meaning. But in combination with "shall not be infringed". The basic idea is that you don't have gun-restricting laws.

Don't try and defend the constitution as a well thought out law. This was a time well before you had weaponry capable of such immense devastation as we do now. And especially weapons which don't hold you well accountable. Drones, ICBM's, artillery to some extent, IED's/mines.

Some people scream for 2A ONLY PERMIT NEEDED but while I am a heavy supporter, I think it would be best to at least ensure anyone who wants to own firearms is required to have a safety course and pass a check on the issuing of their license.

which is why I said it's a grey area. Personally I agree, and would lean towards allowing cannons and such. But I could live with not including them and classifying them outside of "arms which can be kept and born".

sure, the problem is that it's not an arm that can be kept and born, it's a large destructive device.

Like I said, personally I would say cannons and such can be allowed. But I can see the argument against it, and hence why I said it was a grey area.

They had mines and bombs back then. They had artillery back then. Drone's and ICBM's aren't magic, you're just as accountable with those. I'd say MORE accountable.

To achieve what? There's only 600 accidental firearms deaths each year. For a comparison, 3500 people accidentally drown every year. If accidental firearms deaths are a public health problem, drowning must be a public health catastrophe.

If you are pro-gun, you must fight the gun grabbers tooth and nail. You of all people, being from the People's Republic of Massachusetts, should know they'll never stop. "Compromise" with them now, and in 10 years they'll want more "compromise". The only answer is total resistance.
>>
>>29640379
I think it WAS pretty well thought-out. The argument that they couldn't conceive of more powerful weapons is silly.

At that time, guns like the Puckle Gun, or the Girandoni Air Rifle, already existed. They were rapid fire weapons, not just single-shot muskets. And explosives, mines, bombs, etc. certainly existed, as well as cannons.

Drones are not a fucking weapon. It's a small RC aircraft. Irrelevant.

>>29640384
yes, I know.

>>29640403

They do lode other rights. The right to vote. In many states the right to hold a business licenses and others.

>>29640379
It's really not a big deal. You can fly to Vietnam or Cambodia right now and shoot rpgs at a car on a shooting range for like $15.

Just because someones hobby involves spending hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to keep his panzer two running does not mean it has any effect on society. The idea that if everything was legal that there would be chaos is a myth. Tens of millions of people in the US strap on guns and wear them on a daily basis. The only places where we have a significant violent crime rate involving shootings is in liberal run cities where it's fucking illegal to even think about a gun but there are still like 50 niggers shooting each other every night in the street.

Well lets take a step back and just consider a V2 rocket with a warhead.

They're not particularly hard to deploy in a space where a citizen wouldn't be accountable really. Assuming you do basic Opsec you can't really be caught well. And the devastation is rather immense.
>artillery
Not to the same capability. The artillery was cannons. Sure, very devastating weapons. But back then they pretty much needed line of sight. Artillery nowadays is insane.
>mines
Yes sure. Perhaps a bit out of line.
>drones aren't magic
Imo they're pretty "magic". They're very easy to build, they're consumer products which are used en masse. They can carry quite a bit of dangerous material, even simple drones. All the traces that exist are only capture in the moment (triangulating the position of the person controlling by registering whatever signals being used to control it).
And I don't think even that's enough. You could have it control itself. Then if you blow it up well enough there's no actual trace without major privacy infringement on the entire population.

That's a bit hyperbolic. What concerns me is the terrorism and how people ignore Europol's assessment of the situation completely. As a religion and a ethnic group they're extremely irrelevant. Being a Swede we take far too many obviously, we're not that big a country. But Europe in general doesn't have these issues.

That said Islam is a terrible religion and (proper) practice should be illegal because it conflicts with the law.

It's less about prevention and more just as insurance. And like I said, national license. No one who is into gang shit is gonna go for the course or the license. And this also promotes safety and responsibility in a sense that the anti-fun brigade can't oppose.

It's not a compromise at all. It's "fuck you, here's my license, try and talk about how I'm a monster."

Then tell them who's idea it was to have Alice shoot herself and when they give you the blank stare of ignorance you can show them the Brady campaign ad.

I'm not really arguing about the constitution still. It's pretty clear, everything is permitted.

But I think many destructive devices should be controlled in some form at the very least. Who does the controlling is another matter.

What about biological or chemical weapons?
Those were unlikely what's covered in "arms". I don't consider poisons "arms". And that's what they had back then (I think, not an expert).

>>29638513
I'm all for background checks at FFLs, so criminals and people who are otherwise prohibited from owning a gun can't just walk into a gun store and buy a gun. Private sales are a different matter.

I don't view them as a major impact in that way. They're very non-violent if you look at the stats. I don't see how their efforts to close borders (which many countries are even doing themselves now) would somehow be good for Islam.

I'm much more concerned with economic consequences and how it will affect the country politically because we have a large group of people who are likely to rely on welfare for at least 15 years. (think it's like 1/3d have had a job after 15 years).

That's gonna wreck us because a large amount of the population consider politics a humanitarian endeavor before all else. That's a major problem.

What I wa s saying is that they want to breed antiislmisy sentiment so that the moderates are treated poorly and attacked thus causing them to radicalize and the army of radical Islam to become stronger.

I was saying that closing your boarders and deporting all of them is the only way to stop that from happening.

You have three choices

Let Islam take over your country

Deport them all

Or try to ignore the problem because of political correctness while they bleed your country dry and your people get fed up with it and start trying to solve the problem on their own.

>groups of refugees raping women
Yes I'm sure that's true. Is that the general case though? I think they're a problem because they're more prone to it. But that doesn't exactly justify closing out refugees (note, not migrants). I think we should have gender/children/religious quotas on refugees. Because it'd solve a lot of problems. I'm generally opposed such discrimination but when the originating region openly discriminates we're actually doing counter-discrimination. Also having a quota system allows them to take more safe routes. Would also have the inadvertent effect of prioritizing higher-education/richer people. Which I think is good in many ways. Since there's no reason to prioritize either on an ethical basis we should prioritize higher education people because of their value and potential contribution to the world.

I don't tend to make too many judgement on highly emotional topics based on what's seen in videos.
There's reliable crime statistics all over Europe (but not here, they decided to break the trend and not consider ethnicity/migrant status for some inexplicable reason). It's not nearly as bad as it seems. They're bad people. But it's not a "major issue" aside from the potential future terrorism.
https://www.europol.europa.eu/content/european-union-terrorism-situation-and-trend-report-2015
This is concerning. We have the most migrants and no terrorist attacks or arrests. There's clearly shit brewing, or our government lied to europol (god damn hope not).

Rights are no longer rights if you allow a third party to regulate, legislate, or control them in any way, shape, or form. If it can be limited, it can be revoked. If it can be revoked, it's not a right, now is it?

I am for eliminating life in prison in favor of death or long sentences.

Our government is actually changing. They're far more opposed immigration than they used to be. And their efforts are targeted on getting migrants jobs and shit.

I think there should be a test. Of all the shitty laws here in cuckafornia, that's one I kind of support.

The only problem is that the questions are retarded as fuck. Like, "should you aim your gun at people when it's not loaded?" kind of retarded. I have a hard time imagining any human being capable of getting to a gun-store on their own volition being retarded enough to fail. I think there should be one specific to the type of firearm you're trying to get, including some basic anatomy of the gun, and demonstrating understanding of when the gun can and cannot fire, and what might cause it to fail.


We also have a safety demonstration thing here. The gun store employee will show you how to lock the slide back, drop the slide, load and eject a dummy round, etc all using the exact gun that you are purchasing. Then you show it all back to them. It's pretty quick and unobtrusive, and I think it has the potential to prevent accidental gun deaths.


Mental and criminal checks should be restrained to convicted violent offenses. There should be absolutely no records of who was checked, when, and how often. All paperwork involved should be purged after purchase, or else given the same protection as the information lawyers get from their clients.

Ok? So where do we draw the line. Because EU law is stupid. You're supposed to seek asylum in the first country you arrive in. There's no way of proving they didn't fly in, which they're allowed to legally. Making them legal asylum seekers.
>Then send back the refugees you volunteered to take.
These are the large majority. Assuming by volunteered you mean the legal migrants who came here.

It's against so many different laws though. Swedish law, EU law and International law. But sure, that doesn't stop us. We have mandatory ID checks on the Danish border now. Practically trapping them in Denmark. That's perfectly counter to EU law. So I suppose it can happen. That would be a rather massive undertaking though.

Well the immigration issue isn't the only issue in this world.
If we leave the EU we have to enter NATO and that's a major security issue with Russia in such close proximity. It's also unlikely we will be able to since it's so politically unpopular since we have this pseudo-neutrality thing going on.
Also EU isn't bad as long as you're not in the Eurozone. It improves your political influence. If brexit becomes a thing there's a lot more to consider.
Also there's more pressing issues. Like the TTIP coming up. Gonna seriously infringe on our democracy if it passes. THAT would be a good reason to leave.

I doubt anyone with common sense will buy this. The underlying assumption here is that a felon's actions and his character exist independently of each other, which flies in the face of common sense. You have your occasional "good person who committed a serious misdeed that is at odds with his normal behavior getting the book thrown at him by an overzealous prosecutor" but these are cases that are as statistically insignificant as mass shootings with respect to gun crime. Your average felon commits felonies because of his nature--he has no regard for the life/property of his fellow citizens or because he is stupid to the point of being dangerous to the people around him.

Basically, the 70% rate of recidivism among criminals in the United States is just a testament of how difficult it is to change the character of an individual rather than the government somehow entrapping them into being career criminals, as you are alleging.

>>29641177
You're right that there is a problem with paroling criminals in order to free up space in prisons, and you're right that only those who can demonstrate beyond a reasonable doubt that he will no longer be a danger to others or the property of others should be let out and get their rights and freedoms back. What you have no outlined is the kinds of reforms you are proposing. Could you elaborate?
