Re: Proposed: Must be 25 to own a semi-auto long gun
I see.... at eighteen a person can sign a contract, be in a War zone making life and death decisions including shooting and kill others, go out on an Ambulance call to save someone's life, do one of the most dangerous things most of us do - drive a car - but they're not "mature enough" to buy a semi-automatic rifle?
As our friend Jennifer put so well, someone is tossing things against the wall to see what sticks. This is one of those items that smells like the stuff we pour on rose beds.

Re: Proposed: Must be 25 to own a semi-auto long gun
This one's tough...those kids are young enough to keep their parents' health insurance until they're 26, they live in their parent's basements into their thirties, how can you argue that they're old and responsible enough to own a gun? Maybe what they need to do it change that from age based to criteria based, and the same with voting. In the military? check, check. In the basement? no check.

Re: Proposed: Must be 25 to own a semi-auto long gun
The frightening thing is I know people on our side of the argument that would jump on this for guns or cars or whatever because, "Well, I know what I was like when I was a teenager" or "Oh, yeah, I wouldn't trust my 17 year old with blah blah blah." And maybe those statements are true, but it's just further proof that we're infantilizing our youth to the point that today's 18 year old has the mentality of an 8 year old a century or two ago. It's not a good trend, but I do know a couple families who are raising their kids right, so maybe there's hope!
