The biggest threat is lazy ass people not getting out and voting.

Tell him to reread the Constitution. Each and every amendment.
Re: Mark Cuban to "Update" Second Amendment
Every form of licensing regarding firearms is a violation of the 2nd amendment. The 2nd amendment should stand alone. Licensing is corruption.

He may well know that now and is merely being deceptive figuring he will just add to the death by a thousand cuts disarmament strategy. If he is as naive as his proposal suggests, he will not go far in the Democrat Party because citizen disarmament is a litmus test for the Democrats at the national and state levels.

It’s easy to overlook the strides made if you weren’t part of the struggle. Constitutional carry wouldn’t ever had a chance without shall issue. Socialists are much more in sync with progressional changes to effect outcomes. Conservatives know they’re right, know it now and demand there correct view to be instantly implemented. People with the long view get derided and name called, and nothing gets done.
Oh yeah, this isn’t a rant against you. Just an opportunity to get a point out there. I sometimes rant on. :D
This may be true but it does not invalidate anything I said. You can not legally carry a handgun further than walking distance without LTCF, and you can be denied LTCF on the whims of the sheriff, regardless of your criminal record or lack thereof.

Well said, and that is an excellent analysis of Cuban and why he is making this statement about guns. He has to check the gun control box, but as you say he is doing it in a way where the uniformed voter would find "reasonable"". Nothing the Democrats want with MORE gun is control about safety, or reducing what they call "gun violence". It is all about disarmament of the Law Abiding Citizen.

He's for states rights is he? I wonder how he feels about nationalized healthcare and states banning abortion?
Re: Mark Cuban to "Update" Second Amendment
For a century or two, people like him would talk about "uppity Negroes that you Northerners have no experience with" and "the labor needs of Southern states".
Rights are rights. They don't stop at rivers or imaginary map lines. He'd be the first person to scream about any state imposing restrictions on who can vote, or abortion rights, or Texas executing murderous immigrant teens.

A down side of Trump getting elected is that every other ego-maniacal non-politician billionaire thinks he can do it too.

I love when people say the RKBA is a state's rights issue. I have to remind them that all the states agreed to abide by the Constitution, and the 2A clearly upholds a Natural Right, so legally, state's can not touch it, but they do. :mad:
