SENATE BILL: Firearms Act of 2013 (Law'd)

[Napoleon]

Abstain

[Napoleon]

My apologies for my limited presence in this debate thus far. I am in the process of moving and am struggling to maintain what activity I have been able to. That said, there is no way I can support allowing law enforcement to carry if the general population cannot. Law enforcement is a profession, not a higher level of being. For every Adam Lanza there is a Chris Dorner.

I understand this only applies to federal property. What is the purpose?

[Napoleon]

I offer an amendment to strike Section 5 entirely.

[Napoleon]

I must admit I've never understood this argument in relation to gun policy. "This is a very limited proposal that will only prevent a small amount of incidents, why do it at all?!" Because it's a limited and respectful proposal that prevents a small amount of incidents rather than none, guys. That's why.

This is an attempt at snipping off the very tip of a weed when we need to grab and pull it out by the roots. All the attention is on mass shootings, yet those consist of less than 1% of gun murders. To really stop violent crime we need a renewed War on Poverty.

Exactly! I suspect our liberal drug laws have worked toward reducing crime in Atlasia.  And another big step would be to reduce racism and other problems related to law enforcement so they can gain the respect of their communities instead of an antagonistic relationship.

[Napoleon]

Perhaps we aren't missing the point- there just isn't one.

[Napoleon]

3-5, I haven't voted yet.

[Napoleon]

AYE

[Napoleon]

Didn't Vote (0): ewww its a miracle (not really, it did take the full time)

Only because I waited for Clarence to vote.

[Napoleon]

An amendment:

Friendly.

I thought I posted my rationale for proposing this last night...I'm happy you accepted but I still feel I should explain why. I think three is a reasonable number for license that doesn't put too much burden on a citizen trying to exercise something which, to this point, is a constitutional right, while still keeping the spirit of the bill and not making too big of a change.

[Napoleon]

NAY

[Napoleon]

Aye
