How can QTHUGS STOP people from wearing guns in ANY Federal building, congress, court houses? My thoughts are How the hell do the courts get to choose WHERE they are allowed? IF they cannot be worn in Congress, Court houses, then they should NOT be allowed ANYWHERE PERIOD!!

Locales aren't barred from making certain restrictions on the carrying of firearms, nor of possession of various types of firearms.

It's the grenades that are restricted.

(36,744 posts)A gun is useless without ammunition. To purchase ammo, you should have to possess a near FFL level license and be extremely limited on amounts you can purchase.
Anyone caught in the sale or manufacture of black marketing ammunition should be guilty of a felony and imprisonment.

Then offer a buy back program on the guns themselves.

(36,744 posts)Gun control wont solve this problem. Killing off the supply of ammunition will solve it over time.
But I hear ya and sadly you are right.

(34,163 posts)Private businesses and dwellings always control this issue as they see fit.
Public spaces are mixed in many states where carrying is legal.
Moderation is still a good approach to gun laws.

(16,860 posts)WHO makes the decision for carry in CONGRESS and Courthouses? Seems like the SC and QTHUGS are all for right to carry UNLESS it's in front of THEM!!

(4,448 posts)Judges have almost unlimited ability to set rules for courtrooms and court houses.
Congress has wide discretion as well (although not as much as judges)
