    you are not being truthful. no one is harmed if your stupid form is not passed into law.

    people will be harmed by having to fill out a form when it does nothing good and can lead to their weapons being confiscated

    in your thousands and thousands of posts, you have demonstrated you don't have any concept of probabilities

    you want us to accept clear and guaranteed harassment and diminution of our rights in the FAITH BASED HOPE that those harassments and diminutions will PERHAPS impede a few criminals. yet you have never proven your schemes are GUARANTEED to decrease violent crime

    and you refuse to explain why US gun owners should accept absolutely certain harassment, inconvenience or even confiscations of our weapons in order to PERHAPS prevent a FEW criminals from getting a gun ASAP

    sorry, I and most gun owners are not going to give up our rights for some faith based DREAM that it will deter criminals

    Well the scientific evidence....you know that stuff I provide that you never provide...says otherwise. So your claim is dismissed for lack of evidence

    for someone whose arguments are generally nothing more than silly one liners, and who fails to address

    1) constitutional rights

    2) millions of honest and lawful gun users

    3) lots of studies that contradict the anti gun propaganda

    you really aren't in any position to dismiss anything. In fact I suspect if there was a poll of whose arguments are the weakest , yours would be a top contender.

    You left out number 4. Saving lives. That is the most important one. And you have no studies. That is hilarious

    There are no studies that conclusively prove the restricting of firearms does anything to save lives.

    No, this is a Forum, not a Form, the Gun Control Forum to be precise.

    Protecting people's freedoms and liberties are just as important as saving lives; maybe moreso. "They who surrender essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

    And just because you refuse to acknowledge them doesn't mean there are no studies. But your ability to delude yourself is clearly and obviously highly developed.

    Perhaps circumstantial evidence that meets the preponderance level of proof, but such is not actual evidence and does not conclusively prove anything.

    They've been presented. You've ignored them. My time is too precious to waste playing your game putting out that which you have already refused to acknowledge.
