Bill in Missouri would require every person between the age of 18 and 35 to own an AR-15

[Stratovarious]

Are you talking about the bill introduced in Missouri? Or some other city ordinance in "one of the cities you mentioned"?

Anywhere.

No City should 'mandate' this kind of ordinance .

[Superfluous Man]

Anywhere.

No City should 'mandate' this kind of ordinance .

I totally agree. But the link in the OP isn't clear about what this bill does, and it says it does require it.

Conscientious objectors can train and serve as medics or leave the state.

I have a better idea. Instead of anti-slavery people leaving the state, politicians who reinstate slavery (which is exactly what requiring military or militia service is) can leave the earth- in a body bag. Drafting someone into a militia or the military is the most evil thing a government can do.

"Of all the statist violations of individual rights in a mixed economy, the military draft is the worst......One of the notions used by all sides to justify the draft, is that “rights impose obligations.” Obligations, to whom?—and imposed, by whom? Ideologically, that notion is worse than the evil it attempts to justify: it implies that rights are a gift from the state, and that a man has to buy them by offering something (his life) in return.

I don't believe anyone enforces it, they're trying to instill in their towns that we should
rely on ourselves for protection which would mean with firearms, and not expect law enforcement
to stop crime, they can't , they can't protect any of us from thugs.
The attempt is to send a very clear message that they are in full support of the 2nd amendment.

It should be changed like some of the other towns, 'encouraged' to highly encouraged.


They wouldn't be out of line to offer incentives to self 'arm' as it will ease the burden of law
enforcement, through diminished frequencies of assaults/ home invasions etc.

There's nothing to enforce. It's not a law yet, just a bill that will never pass or even come up for a vote that some legislator introduced to be cute. But I would want to know what the bill actually says before praising or condemning it.

If you said blue was blue and I agreed , you'd find a way to turn it into a fkg argument.

"If the bills were to actually advance in the state legislature, McDaniel says that he would strip out the ownership mandates and focus on tax credits."

Focus on SB613!

The AR-15 bill was more to trigger the left than to accomplish anything.

I'm just throwing shade here, fella. No, I don't believe anyone should be compelled to fight. Just saddened that nobody is willing to fight for anything but lone white supremacists and Jihadists.
Everyone else seems quite the pussy these days.
