Scott is presumably going to run against Nelson for that Senate seat, and it speaks to how the politics of this incident are different from the past ones that Scott thinks its a political winner to actually take some action. He's got a cleared primary field. Combine this with the Pulse shooting and it's not hard to intuit gun politics are different in Florida. I think it's entirely expected to lean left on some issues that aren't going to come to fruition anyway. 53 minutes ago, Martell Spy said: Hopefully the traitor congressman is indicted.

Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 With regards to the age of purchasing a firearm, what do we do about gifted and inherited firearms? I own three firearms, but I didn’t purchase any of them (I did buy one for my step-brother after he got a major award in the Army). I got my first gun when I was 14 or 15 from my grandpa. Are we going to regulate this too? I recall there being a school shooting a long time ago (I believe in Washington state) where a kid killed his parents and then shot up his school with the guns his dad bought him. Ironically, they bought him the guns because they thought that would lessen his interest in guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mexal Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Never mind. This got added in the new indictment from what I'm seeing. It also removed 4 counts of failure to report a bank account (included in EDVA indictment). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha, yeah not to destroy your hopes and dreams, but the chances of that happening are 0, since the people who made TSCC don't have the actual rights any more.

Ironically, they bought him the guns because they thought that would lessen his interest in guns. Gifts seem easy to regulate (although not easy to enforce). Simply make it illegal to gift someone a firearm under the minimum legal age of purchase, same as with alcohol. Alcohol has some exemptions surrounding parents, just don't allow those with guns. ETA: There's plenty of evidence that just the existence of laws, even those difficult/impossible to enforce, still lead to reductions in the behavior they are trying to curb. As for inheritance, one solution could be that to inherit a firearm, the weapon needs to be specifically declared in the deceased's will, along with provisions for a trust to hold the firearm until the inheritor comes of age. The trust could be as simple as an account and a key with a firing range or other business comfortable with storing a gun; they get paid a one-time fee of $300 (or whatever) to store the gun as long as necessary. I'm sure there's better ideas too. But I don't think there are any complicated policy problems surrounding successfully addressing firearms, it's entirely political/constitutional problems.

DMC Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 So the aggregate generic ballot is up to D+8 at RCP and 8.2 at 538. I think +8 is a good equilibrium and a good over/under for the actual outcome. Also, haven't been around in a few days, but the new Pennsylvania map does indeed make things look a lot better for the Dems. Sucks for Lamb though. Win or lose, Lamb will be best served challenging Rothfus in the new 17th. He shoulda/woulda won that based on the environment, but it's gonna look weird cuz he doesn't live there. Meanwhile Saccone - win or lose - can probably safely run in the new 18th (although he's likely to be primaried based on his lackluster campaign in the special).
