I am a gun owner, I would find this harassing. QED.
Terrible, no laws which TurtleDude feels harass him shall be made from now on.
as to your second point massive fail
If I own guns and my son brings a gun to school, they still have to prove it was a gun that came from our home-not one my son got from Billy for a pair of Nike shoes.
Hey! Now we're getting closer to where I want you to be. By ensuring the school knows you own guns, you can save procedural time and doubt that it's
your gun when the police come knocking. Now imagine if you will:
Scenario A:
Kid A shoots Kid B after school with gun he bought from Jamal the Drug Dealer and runs home to safety, ditches gun on the way but still the police figure out he's the killer.
Police aren't sure where the gun used in the crime comes from as they can't find it.
Police pull school records, find that parents (of Kid A) own some guns.
Police ask parents to see weapons, they can't match them to the weapon used in the crime. Automatically, parents aren't held responsible for breaking any state/federal laws on gun storage.
Scenario B:
Kid A shoots Kid B after school with gun he bought from Jamal the Drug Dealer and runs home to safety.
Police find the gun but can't figure out where it came from.
Police pull school records, find that parents own some guns.
Police ask parents to see weapons, they can't match them to the weapon used in the crime. Automatically, parents aren't held responsible for breaking any state/federal laws on gun storage.
In neither scenario is there a harassment of gun owners. :shrug:
You are just arguing for the sake of arguing. You seem to think stigmatizing people doesn't restrict their rights, The supreme court disagrees with you. In Title VII and related cases, anything that MIGHT reasonably chill a person from exercising their rights (as opposed to preventing them from exercising their rights) is a prima facie case of retaliation .
and you have still failed to prove any value to this.
Alright, moving the goalposts some more eh Turtle? Fine. I'll play.
How does reporting that you own a gun constitute a stigma? For example, do you believe that in any scenario where a gun must be reported/registered constitutes a stigma? Because that just means you're hypersensitive. Nothing else.
PS: I'm glad you moved away from the "do blacks have to register" argument. That just seems silly given the fact that every year, parents/children provide information on their race, gender, color etc.
