Democratic presidential candidate Cory Booker is proposing that all gun owners be licensed

[livingston]

Democratic presidential candidate Cory Booker is proposing that all gun owners be licensed by the federal government, a process that would include an interview and safety training.

National licensing is one of more than a dozen specific proposals in a sweeping gun control agenda the U.S. senator from New Jersey released on Monday. It's his second policy rollout in three weeks as he tries to break through the crowded Democratic primary field .

While current gun owners and first-time buyers would be subject to the federal license requirement, a transition period would allow current owners to come into compliance, the Booker campaign said.

Rights don't require licenses. Fuck you Corey Booker.

 

[Podmonkey]

Booker is a perpetual also ran. Nobody takes him seriously. Nothing he says has any chance of becoming reality.

 

[Catskillkid]

Hey Corey, just remember what happened to the historical Spartacus.

 

[BDinPutnam]

I propose "almost Spartacus" take a long walk off a short pier.

 

[Dr. Evil]

I would propose the same for scumbag politicians wanting to be in office. They need to be interviewed by we the people.

I would also like to add that a 'voting test' be implemented that would be based on currant events and pollical positions BEFORE a person can cast a vote.

 

[VietnamEraVet]

What I don't see included in that utterly obnoxious POS's proposal (which I totally oppose), is this: with some kind of a federal permit, then it seems only right that such a permit should be valid in ALL US states, DC. and all territories and possessions, right? As if NYC, and all of the anti gunner locations like HI, CA, and so on would go along with that...

 

[E the massive]

Interview Deees.

Cory Booker’s Gun Control Plan Calls for National Licensing Program
Mr. Booker’s campaign said the process would involve submitting fingerprints and sitting for an interview, and would require applicants to complete a certified gun safety course. Each applicant would also undergo a federal background check before being issued a gun license, which would be valid for up to five years.
Other parts of the plan include banning bump stocks, which enable semiautomatic weapons to fire faster; limiting bulk purchases of firearms; and closing the loopholes that allow domestic abusers and people on terrorist watch lists to obtain guns. And the plan calls for the I.R.S. to investigate the N.R.A.’s tax-exempt status, an issue the New York attorney general is also exploring, causing considerable turmoil among the group’s leadership.

There's nothing new there.
We NYers, depending on county, pretty much are already burdened by similar regulations.

Finger prints...yep
Background check...yep
Gun safety class....yep
interview....some counties
5yr renewal....yep

And the ability to buy, use and possess Destructive Devices, Suppressors, SBRs, etc. anywhere in the country without jumping through another set of hoops. If you're gonna bend over, make sure it's worth it.

 

[Greywolf224]

This guy is a Spartacus sized hemorrhoid.
Only idiots from New Jersey can vote this guy in as a senator.

 

[Bustedknees]

I propose any lawmaker that tries to pass a bill that violates the Constitution does mandatory jail time..

 

[libertysnake]

All citizens should have to go through an interview and licensing in order to exercise free speech...

Does that sound appalling and disgustingly brown shirt to you? Like your given rights are being taken away? That's what they're doing to other second amendment, which is a right on equal footing with the first.

 

[GoodGuywitha9mm]

Downfall noted. Check. Everyone needs to give a reason why they won't be elected!

Dems have guns too. Closet Dems, Dems in name only, and who knows what else is out there... He won't make it.

"Booker, a former mayor of Newark, New Jersey's largest city, said gun violence is an issue close to him, with several people being shot in his neighborhood recently."

Who want to bet me that there wasn't one legally owned gun involved.

It annoys the fuck out of me that people don't get the quote right, because in context it reveals how dissembling and self-serving this douche really is- "this is about as closes as I'll ever have in my life to an 'I am Spartacus' moment."

 

[ArmedCorgi]

How cute, he wants to be president. You can tell he was spoiled and sheltered as a child. I wonder if they come up with these ideas before reading the BoR or if they actually forget it exists. Probably, they just don't care. Is there such a thing as being held in contempt of country?

 

[Grimscale]

I think it's time politicians get background checks and licenses, and be registered in databases.
No, not just the sexual assault database.

 

[Deplorable Me]

......but opposes positive ID for voting.
