here is a great site in case anyone is interested in acquiring wt property in brooklyn heights.

Confidentiality and non disclosure agreements are standard in large real estate deals. You don't want potential buyers slipping information to each other.
I thought this website looked very professional, whoever put it together knows what he's doing. Either they have more NYC properties to sell than what they're show casing right now, or maybe the plan to start selling Kingdom Halls through this group. The sure have enough property around the country.

I don't think its being disingenuous. Simon asserted that rights are not absolute (in general I agree by the way). The question is, does that apply to all rights? Any attempt to place any restriction on abortion is quickly turned into a fight over a fundamental right. Yet pretty much the same people think other rights can be restricted. Which is it? My question is theoretical , as with gun ownership, the Supreme Court has spoken.
Back to the main topic, here's some interesting numbers. Out of 12,000 plus murders per year, rifles are used in about 300. I don't see that an assault weapon ban will move those numbers by very much.
Also from what's on CNN right now, this is looking more and more like a terrorist attack, not a work place shooting. They had bombs and thousands of rounds of ammo in their house.
Also I'm hearing rumors that they purchased the guns legally in California, which has some really strict gun laws, including an assault weapons ban. I haven't been able to confirm if they did fact buy the guns in CA.
PS I do not currently own a gun.

That's a ruling. They need to make a better one.
The constitution can be amended and / or re-interpreted and laws change all the time.
The right has already had conditions placed on it ... just add some more. Nothing mandates the type of arms or the quantity. Are people allowed nukes? No - that would be crazy. We just need to find a better line of where "crazy" starts. An arsenal of weapons is crazy.
It just needs some political will.
I have no problem with some restrictions. Background checks are reasonable. Here in Washington State it's illegal to take a gun into a bar even if you have a concealed carry permit. I've known since I was a kid that guns and alcohol don't mix. This is a reasonable restriction.
Food for thought, how do the members of this board advocating reasonable restrictions on guns feel about reasonable restrictions on abortion?

the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia
i.e. the only ones that have the right to bear arms.
2nd amendment doesn't need to be rewritten or changed, just applied as intended instead of being perverted by the gun lobby.
Simon, this is not correct. The U S Supreme court has ruled that the 2nd amendment confers a right on individuals, not the militia. The organized militia, as defined in the statute, did not exist when the amendment was written and ratified into the constitution. Like it or not, this is the current state of the law here.

What needs to happen is that every gun is tracked from manufacture to sale.
Read Adjusted Knowledge's post above. This is already done, per federal law.
Also, I have no problem with requiring a gun owner to have liability insurance, but don't expect it to cut down much on gun ownership. I have a one million dollar umbrella liability policy that costs twelve bucks a month.
While we're at it, the "gun show loophole" doesn't exist. If you are in the business of selling guns, you have to do the federal paperwork no matter where the sale takes place. If you are only conducting "casual" sales you don't have to file the paperwork no matter where you are. The obvious solution to this is to require that everybody file a report of sale.

Where is the well regulated militia and are they required?
Current through Pub. L. 114-38. (See Public Laws for the current Congress.)

watchtower released at tv.jw.org a new gb video with samuel f. herd, with the theme:.
why reduce the number of special full-time servants?.
it seems there is a reason to release this special message.. http://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodstudio/pub-jwbrd_201511_4_video.
Why is he reading the whole thing?
I've seen this kind of thing many times in the business world. It was almost certainly prepared by the legal department and they told him to read it exactly as written.
there was a letter sent to elders in australia on 18th november 2015 asking for details of publishers that are solicitors, barristers and accountants.
what would be their motive for these details?
the rest of the letter outlines 8 specific pieces of information to compile and send to bethel's legal department, and reiterates to collect the information only be "as you understand, without consulting the publisher.
