[QUOTE="DrivesGuy, post: 2351579, member: 24974"] You are probably right, considering all the bullets, brass powder and primers I buy. Frankly I just fail to see the reasoning why you need a license to carry a weapon provided you have no prior convictions of felonies. If you are trained in the safety and proper use of a firearm, then why do I have to have a bureaucrat tell me that I should pay them money so I can exercise my 2nd Amendment Rights. To me the OBSI is just another bureaucracy designed to take money from people who are exercising their God Given Rights. You see a similar tactic in Communist China. Churches must register with the Government and only teach what the Government deems appropriate. In my military mind, the same thing is being done here by the OBSI. While it is true SCOTUS has stated that states may regulate firearms, just because SCOTUS says something does not mean it is Constitutional. Look at Roe V Wade as a prime example. To me when the Founders said that the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, it means just that. To magically put something in the Constitution that does not exist is just another liberal chip away of our freedoms. While the Oklahoma Constitution does say that the legislature may regulate the right to keep and bear arms, Section II-26 cannot supersede the Federal Constitution. Section II-26: Bearing arms - Carrying weapons. The right of a citizen to keep and bear arms in defense of his home, person, or property, or in aid of the civil power, when thereunto legally summoned, shall never be prohibited; but nothing herein contained shall prevent the Legislature from regulating the carrying of weapons. So in my military mind, every time a liberal gets a seat on the city council, the state legislature or the Governor's mansion, we see an erosion of our God Given Rights. Just look what is happening in Colorado. I know I am probably preaching to the choir here and I apologize for digressing from the thread. But unless we vote in every single election, no matter what is on the ballot, the Soros machine will slowly and methodically chip away at the very foundations this nation was founded on. [/QUOTE]
