More nonsense regarding Britain. I am unsure why some Americans think that the term "British Subject" means we are subjected to anything. Guess what, we dont have to justify why we do anything either, just like Americans. RealOne will be off on a rant about some long since abolished law, while having no real concept of reality. Pa gets all his free thinking from Alex, or worse still, from RealOne.

Dont kid yourselves, you guys have no more freedom than us, just different laws to abide by. As for being free thinkers because you are not subjects, thanks for the belly laugh.

You don't have to be a member of the Royal family to hide your secrets, just rich. So therefore there is nothing specific to the Royal Family in all this.

Hunk, considering how you and real are constantly criticizing the US, its government, etc. I have to ask the question, WHEN THE FUCK ARE YOU TWO LEAVING?

It was so much simpler when houses didn't have more than one exit.

Are you of your rocker? Whatever country would want to take him in? Keep your village idiot to yourself.

Besides, to leave he would have to get a passport, and that would make him owned property of the Rothschilds or some such.

I'm not an expert in gun rights, but pistols are non-assault rifles were in existence when the Second Amendment was created and as such are clearly addressed by it.  But a fair case could be made that assault rifles were not addressed by it, and should not be included with it.  The court would then have the tricky job of interpreting the intent of the Second Amendment and applying that imputed intent to assault rifles.





More like a flimsy case could be made that assault rifles were not addressed by it. The constitution is a set of principles that are timeless for the most part. Back in the day the Kentucky long rifle was the assault rifle of it's time. They were far more accurate then the British brown bess muskets and had  longer range capability. It would be inconsistent with the second amendment to give the government a monopoly on all the firepower, small arms that is, though an argument could be made that civilians should be able to own rockets, grenades or tanks and such.  IMHO we need to draw a line in the sand when it comes to small arms. One other point: the other poster was correct in referring to assault rifles as "so called". Technically assault rifles are capable of fully automatic fire with the flip of a switch. These weapons are highly regulated and must be registered in addition to an extensive FBI background check in order to own one. The "so called" assault rifles, the ones they are always trying to ban are simply semi-automatic look-a-likes.

As far as the gun expo goes, there is a waiting period before a gun purchase goes through.  I don't know what restrictions exist for online sales.
