By that (ridiculous) standard, denying gun ownership to violent felons is gun control too.
Yeah it is. The very definition of gun control is controlling who owns guns.

If the position of this crowd is going to be that the right to keep and bear arms is completely unlimited with absolutely no qualification, then count me out. I'll work within organizations that can actually make a positive difference with respect to gun rights.
So we have to let schizoprehnics and bipolar people wreak havoc on society, screaming at people and themselves, and can't do anything until it's too late? No thanks.

Just throwing this out there:
Heard a very interesting interview on the radio today with a psychiatrist who was saying that there is no such thing as an identifiable mental illness that predicts mass murder. There’s no test for it, no clear correlation between a specific mental illness and violent behavior.
Sounds like all the talk about screening for mental illness is just so much smoke - no real substance.
Oh, get over yourself. Even in the landmark "HELLER vs. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA", the Scalia dicta (no puss hombre, he) stipulated no bazookas, etc.
As for "felon gun control" not being in the Constitution, get over yourself, 2.0.
Common Law dating back to the Magna Carta has kept weapons away from dangerous people and the crazed. Instead of a Tribal Council around a camp fire, we have now involuntary commitment, which in Florida is the Baker Law--the law that we know the corrupt Broward Sheriff Debbie Wasserman Shultz Israel never invoked because of incompetence and/or corruption.
And finally, what's this (odd) working "within organizations that can actually make a positive difference with respect to gun rights"?
I think you mean you want to work within organizations that can actually make a positive difference with respect to gun control? (Lock him up! Lock him up!)
Right, not every schizophrenic will be violent, but society is still better off with them institutionalized. Even if they're not dangerous, they're annoying and disruptive.

You are absolutely right, we as a nation must bend over backwards, take away the rights of others to insure your happiness above all else. How silly of us not to have realized that right off the bat.
I would rather have a useless item banned than all semi-auto firearms. Seems you would rather lose everything.
What do you think compromising with the left and arguing with your fellow gun owners is going to get you?
Not. One. Inch.

First, they came for the bicycle riders ........
Short answer no. Shorter answer no.Would you agree to a ban of bump stocks in exchange for a repeal of the out of state pistol purchase law?
Have you been on a NYC subway train with some random schizophrenic running around screaming? Schizophrenics shouldn't have any "rights" other than to be locked in a cage.
