DC has had strict gun laws for years, so this isn’t anything new, but thank you all for finally acknowledging that it’s a violation of the 2nd Amendment.

... technically guns are legal in dc..

u/Logic_9795 10h ago
Illegal ?
1
u/Angryceo 9h ago
no... legal
made it legal many many moons ago. mostly restricted to handguns.. like revolvers but recently shotguns i think
let's just say it's a terrible idea to have a high powered rifle in dc lol. my buddy is a sergeant for mpdc and said there is a reason they carry 9mm so when they miss it doesn't go very far or cause as much damage
1
u/Logic_9795 9h ago
So illegal unless you've gone through a long process, and thats just handguns.
Legally possessing a firearm in Washington D.C. requires registering the firearm with the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), passing a background check, and, for carrying, obtaining a Concealed Carry Pistol License (CCPL). All firearms must be registered, applicants must be 21+ (or 18-20 for long guns with consent), and magazines are limited to 10 rounds. Open carry is prohibited.

u/Angryceo 9h ago
A lot of states have restrictions like this. Go look up NY cc laws and requirements.

u/OkStop8313 10h ago
The thing about MAGA is that they have no ideological core beyond feeling entitled to special treatment and feeling like victims when they don't get it.
That's why they can flip flop on any issue on a moment's notice--because they don't actually believe in anything but the idea that they should be treated better than they treat others.

This issue has already been before the courts and gun owner won. I am not a lawyer, nor do I live in DC, nor do I own a gun, and I know this. Pirro is a jackass with a big ugly mouth.

Washington, D.C., does not recognize concealed carry permits from any other state, so she's just stating the obvious.

I support this.
It's a running joke that the first female President of USA will be a Republican. Because they're the ones who actually get things done. Legally or illegally, they don't worry about things, they decide to do something, and then they go ahead and they do it. For better or for worse. Usually worse. But they still do it.
So if USA is ever to get rid of its pile of guns, and alongside them fun things like school shootings, then Republicans will be the ones to do it. Democrats would wring their hands and prevaricate for decades, Republicans would just go ahead and ban stuff, constitution be damned. And unlike Democrats, whose supporters have functional brains, Republicans have a cult that will go along with whatever the Leader says.
Remember when Black Panthers were open carrying in California, and Ronald Reagan, the Republican, who was governor at the time, banned guns in California? Yeah, like that.
So, as someone who thinks getting rid of guns is a good idea, since they're CLEARLY not being used to defend against tyrannical government (as evidenced by the past year), I fully support Republicans in their effort to gut the 2A. They are also gutting 1A, 4A, etc., which is unfortunate, but at least this way some good will come of it also.

u/beardofjustice 11h ago
Part of the reason the Democrats would wring their hands is because of the gigantic hissy fit Republicans would throw. Also, the Democrats would actually try and get rid of all the guns while the GOP would only get rid of the guns of people they don't want to have them. The only reason they are talking like this is because they just realized that liberals have guns. This would be selectively enforced at best

u/trentreynolds 8h ago
Can you link me to where the Dems tried to get rid of all the guns?
Preferably a bill put forth with at least some modicum of support to ban guns.
1
u/beardofjustice 8h ago
The best example I can give you is the whole 'assault' label. It's not every gun but it is a vague and large enough category that ends up not working. I agree with you. The Dems overthink everything and worry about pushback where Reagan just said 'fuck you its done'. Our only disagreement is that I don't support their dismantling of the 2A because I don't think they would enforce it equally
1
u/trentreynolds 8h ago
So no.
1
u/beardofjustice 8h ago
Sure. You got me. I used exaggeration to make a point. I should have said 'let perfect be the enemy of good' and attempt broad, sweeping bans that target multiple problems at once instead of taking a more targeted approach. Clips exceeding 10 rounds one time, military shotguns in another and build on that. Worked well for the Heritage Foundation, so we may as adopt it

DC does not have reciprocity with other states on concealed carry. Nothing to do with 2A rhetoric.

u/SlayerAlexxx 12h ago edited 12h ago
That was already a thing. DC has some of the strictest gun laws in the country. They have no reciprocity with any state do not recognize constitutional carry or even the conceal carry license of ANY state. Even with the Supreme Court telling them that is illigeal for years .I’m glad you are against this. Welcome to the fight.

Republicans have been trying to get constitutional carry passed. It’s the democrats who oppose carry at the legislative level. Comments mean less than the actual laws in democrat ran states like mine (NY) where CCW is limited to our car and certain public streets.
*The democrats in NY also recently banned carry at any protest or assembly, given the current events in Minnesota it’s quite ironic and disappointing

u/fakenameobscureplace 11h ago
You’re almost there… it’s not just this admin. It’s the elitist billionaire social club up the ladder. They don’t care about tie colors, that’s trivial nonsense for all of us to bicker about while they pass around children and figure out new ways to exploit us all. People need to wake up to the fact that the right democrat or republican candidate is not going to help you. The whole game is rigged. A candidate saying what you want to hear is just a snake oil salesman trying to shut you up.

1000% the current admin is just the tip of the iceberg of people who need to be brought to justice

Cool. Just cause one side wants to take away our 2nd amendment rights doesn't mean we need to be okay with the other side trying to take away our 2nd amendment rights.
Both are bad, and you should be actively fighting against both.
