Georgia town passes law requiring citizens to own guns and ammo

[koalabear]

A Georgia town has passed a law requiring its citizens to own a gun and ammunition — a measure one councilman says is similar to putting a security sign in your front yard to deter criminals.
The ordinance in the town of Nelson, population 1,300, contains no penalties, has exemptions for felons and the mentally ill and allows anyone to opt out. Town leaders said they wanted to make a point about gun rights.

Let's waste taxpayer money by passing stupid laws.

They're not forcing anyone to do anything. They gave an opt-out to anyone who doesn't want to comply. Tough law.

"No speeding, but No Enforcement!" Take that liberals!

What money did they waste?

It's no Obamacare money funnel that's for sure.....what did we get for a trillion bucks? Slightly expanded coverage to a few million? Much to the roaring cheers of big pharma and insurance over the hundreds of billions they will TAKE under penalty of law and shove right into the pockets of the richest people on Earth.

Yea that's what I thought.....stfu dumb shit.

Funny, but the version I read had a different last sentence.

"Town leaders said they wanted to make a lot of money in kickbacks from the gun dealers."

I predict a lot of "I shot my shelf in the foot Merle!" type accidents in this town.

If you already have them, you can keep them. Great law, they had an AR ban before the shooting too.

Oh I know.....epic stupidity...have you herd NY? "You can keep your 10 round mags but don't load more than 7 rounds!" LOL

Then by default they are going to force people. I don't believe in opt out schemes personally.

I think anyone in a position of responsibility (especially 'authorities') encouraging others to hold a weapon is way off the mark. I mean, I believe in freedom and certainly in the right to protect yourself from tyranny so I don't generally support Obama and his fellow politicians' (yep, Republicans included) long held intention to disarm the public by law enforcement, but I certainly don't believe it is appropriate to encourage people to arm themselves.

I'm assuming they get paid. I'm assuming they spent time passing this law. That's the money they wasted. Then again, I just wasted time trying to reason with a jerkoff like you.

OH yea...that's a Right wing only behavioral trait isn't it? Wasting time and money...good thing the dem's never do that.


Christ...you couldn't be more of a partisan hack if you tried, go beat your tribal drum lemming boy.

Be honest--were you this moronic before the THC took over?

Oh here we go with the pot bit again.... that's always the default for dumb fucks who don't have shit.

Were you this moronic before you ever drank alcohol?

See how fucking stupid that question is? On an individual level alcohol is FAR more destructive than cannabis both physiologically, mentally and economically . In terms of sheer human life cost both alcohol and tobacco make Cannabis look like Vitamin Green.

Care to try again with some more of your lame bullshit?

I'm not suggesting cannabis makes everyone a moron. But you are one.

So why mention THC at all? What does THC or cannabis have to do with the price of tea in your mothers cavernous vag?? Not a mother fucking thing....


Why not just say "you're a moron" ?? I would say "Fuck you too buddy!!" and that would be it.

Oh...that's right.....you're a horrible communicator who probably shouldn't be throwing rocks from a glass house.

Take it easy Kettle, oh....and fuck you too buddy!!

Not to mention the costs to lawyers and such to update all the law books.

And, don't forget, those costs get passed on to consumers.

Bloody politicians wanting to make a name for themselves passing some stupid public safety laws and nobody realizes that these laws cost millions of dollars to enact and they never get enforced.

Okay, Petunia, let's try this. I made a comment about money being wasted and you chimed in with a load of crap about the right wing, Democrats, and then called me a dumb shit and told me to shut up. So what's this about glass houses and kettles? Sorry, but you seem to have a tenuous hold on sanity, at best.

The town has 1300 people, they keep the laws on a yellow ruled notepad.

And THC had nothing to do with any of it.......yet you felt compelled to mention it b/c you thought it would be a clever little pot shot (HAHAHAHA who's clever now bitch?) at me.

But you couldn't tie it into anything...because you are a horrible communicator and a total dumb shit asking a total dumb shit question like

"Be honest--were you this moronic before the THC took over?"

THC took over? Really? Did you not pass middle school biology? Or are you so fucking old you actually bought into

Sorry, but you seem to have a tenuous hold on sanity, at best.

You are more than entitled to that opinion....doesn't smell any different than anyone else's.

Seriously, put BB on ignore. All posters that can be identified as BB are worthless peices of shit who should be ignored by the entire board.
