WHAT opinion? I haven't posted an opinion at all. Lol. Please quote exactly what I said that you believe is my opinion.
What claim are you talking about?
What. Is. Your. Point?The first federal law regarding gun control, other than the Second Amendment, wasn't until 1934. The National Firearms Act of 1934 was implemented under FDR's leadership, during the sensationalistic crime era of the gangsters. National Firearms Act of 1934 legal definition of National Firearms Act of 1934. National Firearms Act of 1934 synonyms by the Free Online Law Dictionary.
Do you see any resemblance to current legislation tactics?
Now, did that law stop gangsters from killing, or did more aggressive enforcement of non-weapons related laws spell the doom of the gangster era?
Now, as to firearms and taxes, that is specifically already spelled out in law. Read 26 USC § 5801

Obviously not since you're arguing that basic economic concepts somehow don't exist. You're keeping an eye on the way YOU want the discussion to go: off on a straw man. And when you say tangents, do you mean like starting a discussion about imposing taxes on guns, that no one is talking about? That kind of tangent?You may think that you have knowledge, but in reality, I am already well-versed in pretty much every subject that you have tried to intertwine as tangents
WHAT do you want me to back up?Fact is - you have failed to back up your statements over the last couple of pages, and are simply attempting to deflect attention from your inability to support your own statements.
