The defining moment for me was Sandy Hook, when it was "decided" that the murder of 20 six to seven year olds was an acceptable "but regrettable" price for the freedom to bear arms.
It makes me genuinely depressing sad, but its completely true.. the right to bear arms, is deemed worth having children shot regularly. Breaks my heart.
They can apply for the privilege of having a gun. Just like the rest of the world.
An automobile is hundred times more essential than a hunting rifle for most Americans, yet America has no problem making driving a privilege. Somehow nobody's worried about evil government confiscating everyone's vehicles so that they will be forced to march on foot...
Yes. Here en Denmark hunters can own rifles etc. But you need a hunting permit, that requires training in gun handling, safety, shooting etc. It also consists of an actual test. You need to keep the rifle safely stored, I believe it needs to be locked away, with the firing pin, kept in a different place, away from the rifle.
