Got a reply from Dave:
Mark, have you ever heard of the black market on automatic weapons? There is one you know. I also know that people with knowledge of these weapons can easily make them automatic with a conversion kit, so don't play your games with me. I'll be waiting for your apology! Dave |

Failing that, he just throws the "redneck, Fox News watcher, extremist, racist" card. In short, he's a typical lib. |

My response to Dave. A waste of time I know, I just like playing with Anti-gun buffoons:
Dave, Thanks for your reply. Of course there is a black market in guns that supply criminals in Mexico (both bringing guns from the US and from central/south America), such actions are already illegal in both Mexico and the United States. If you look at the full trace data from Mexico (not just the data relating to weapons that originated in the United States) you will also find that the majority of weapons recovered by Mexican police (and all of the automatic weapons) did not come from the US. Of course people with knowledge can take a semi-automatic weapon and turn it into an illegal automatic weapon, doing so is already illegal in the United States. You are correct that people can take a conversion kit (such as the "lightning link" for AR-15 rifles) and turn a semi-automatic weapon into an automatic one, but guess what - those conversion kits are regulated the same as complete automatic weapons - no new manufacture after 1986 and they are illegal to possess without a tax stamp and background check. Really smart people can even take some pipe and metal bars/sheet and with extensive work create an illegal automatic weapon, not surprisingly doing that is also illegal. Your response though has nothing to do with what you claimed in your article - that automatic weapons are easy to buy at american gun dealers. Everything you are complaining about is already illegal, but I'm sure you already knew that - you are just telling your readers a lie (that automatic weapons can be easily purchased) in order to create concern and fear in order to push an anti-gun agenda. Do you even know how many times a legally owned automatic weapon has been used in a crime in the United States since 1934? (I believe the answer is once, and that weapon was owned by a Police officer). I have no problem with you being anti-gun, I have no problem with you writing anti-gun articles, that freedom is protected by our Constitution (just like my right to keep and bear arms), what I do have a problem with is you lying to your readers, something a good journalist should never need to stoop to in order to get their message across. Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend. Mark...... |

I'm not sure which pissed me off more.... Dave's original article, or the reponse he wrote to Mark....

2nd reply from Dave, now he's a Vietnam veteran and Nazis all have automatic weapons.
Thanks Mark. By the way, if you have a swastica, gang sign, ect., tattoed on your foreheard you wouldn't have any problem finding the assault gun of your choice. Lie is a big word. It's not about me being anti-gun - I have an M-1 Carbine, and my .45 from the Nam - but you assumed that I'm some bleeding-heart liberal whining about those nasty guns. Don't be so quick to judge. There's no lies in my column. There is a problem with assault guns and burying your head in the sand (via idealogy) is'nt going to change the fact. Dave |

My reply, not sure how much longer I will keep replying:
Good morning Dave, If the problem is "assault rifles" (aka semi-automatic military style rifles) why do you write about automatic weapons (which are already illegal) and call for them to be banned. Why not just be honest and write about "assault rifles"? Gang members can break the law and acquire guns illegally, that is already a crime, everything we have discussed is already a crime, there are two solutions to the problem: better law enforcement and tougher sentencing for people who choose to become criminals, or demonizing the tools they use as part of their crimes, why do you demonize guns instead of demonizing criminals? You wrote "I do ask for laws that would restrict sales of M-16s, AK 47s, or Uzi's.": Those automatic weapons are already restricted by law, yes or no? You wrote "It's no secret that automatic weapons are so easy to buy that American gun dealers...": Can anyone walk into a gun dealer and walk out with an automatic weapon, yes or no? You wrote "The only use for (machine guns), the use for which they were intended, is to kill people. Lots of people, real fast.": Thank you for your service in Vietnam, do you recall from your training and experiences overseas that full automatic fire is best used to suppress an enemy and that aimed single shots or short bursts are more effective for killing them? Who would kill the most people in a crowd - a guy with a swastika on his head armed with a full automatic uzi and 30rds of 9mm, or an experienced hunter with a bolt action rifle and 30 rds of 30-06? (I would put my money on the hunter.) Finally, you want to ban "assault weapons" yet you own one: your M1 Carbine is a semi-automatic weapon with a box magazine chambering an intermediate caliber round, what makes that any different to an AR-15? couldn't someone break into your house and steal your "assault weapon"?, maybe even convert it into a selective-fire (automatic) M2? why haven't you set an example for the rest of us and handed it into the police so it doesn't end up in the hands of Mexico drug dealers or swastika branded neo-nazis? Mark...... P.S. as you are a California resident I hope you never need extra magazines for your M1: the sale or transfer of those has been illegal in CA since 1/1/2002. |

So this guy is a former newspaper editor and publisher as well as a "columnist" for the Times Standard? He may want to update his Wikipedia info, oh wait he doesn't even have a wiki entry.

Quoted:
Dave Stancliff/For the Times-Standard Posted: 09/13/2009 01:27:16 AM PDT The Beatles were spot on with their song lyrics that suggested “Happiness is a warm gun.” That gun has to have bullets, and these are at a premium right now, for several reasons. The National Rifle Association (NRA) scare tactics claimed when President Obama came into office he would take people's warm guns away from them. The response was almost immediate. Sales of guns and bullets skyrocketed on this rumor. And make no mistake. It was a rumor. That fact doesn't seem to bother the people who went on a buying spree. There seems to be no end to this spree while people believe they may lose the constitutional right to purchase and own weapons. In California alone, about 60,000 more guns were sold in the first seven months of this year, than in the same period last year, a 26 percent increase, according to the state Attorney General's Office. It amazes me that people take so much stock in rumors, but the statistics don't lie. While guns and ammunition are both hot selling items, it's the sales of ammunition that's exploded nationwide. Industry experts are ecstatic because ammunition suppliers are working around the clock to meet the demand. Lawrence Keane, senior vice president and general counsel of the National Shooting Foundation Inc., recently told the Los Angeles Times, “Nobody has ever seen this kind of demand before.” About two billion bullets were made in America last year, bringing in about $7.5 billion, according to the foundation. Private consumers are not alone on a bullet-buying binge. The military has quadrupled its purchases of small-arms ammunition in the last decade, because of two wars that use lots of bullets. There was a time when military ammunition was made exclusively at the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant in Independence, Mo. Now other suppliers are needed to keep up with growing demand. Police departments around the country report shortages of ammunition. For example, the Riverside Police Department used to get orders filled in a couple of months. In a recent interview, Lt. Vance Hardin, who orders ammunition for the department, said they've been waiting 10 months now. Internet sales of ammunition are doing a bang-up job of getting those bullets out. One online site, “Cheaper than Dirt,” has seen a 30 percent increase in bullet sales this year, according to Chief Executive Michael Tenny. Never underestimate the power of fear. The omnipotent NRA understands this. They launched a website during the presidential campaign, “GunBanObama.org,” to get the word out that Obama would be the most-anti gun president in American history. I've seen no signs of new gun control legislation since Obama was elected. The NRA spent millions of dollars to plant the idea that Obama's gun stance would threaten their 2nd Amendment rights. It looks like their investment paid off as paranoia turned into cash for the gun and ammunition industry. Let's not forget that because we have an African-American president, racists across the country are loading up on guns and ammunition like Armageddon is around the corner. Hate groups are gaining record memberships because Obama is black. That should raise some alarm. These nuts are arming themselves in record numbers. It's troubling that the NRA has such a powerful lobby that lawmakers in the Senate and House are afraid to confront them. If they weren't afraid, then why haven't they challenged the NRA and passed meaningful gun control laws? Why hasn't someone in Congress called the NRA out for spreading lies that benefit the gun and ammunition industry? The answer is, it would be political suicide to take on the NRA and the gun and ammunition industry. I don't ask our politicians to take on honest citizens who believe they need protection, who want to hunt, or those who enjoy the sport of shooting. I do ask for laws that would restrict sales of M-16s, AK 47s, or Uzi's. I don't care what anyone says, hunting with machine guns makes no sense. The only use for them, the use for which they were intended, is to kill people. Lots of people, real fast. It's no secret that automatic weapons are so easy to buy that American gun dealers supply the Mexican cartels with 90 percent of the weapons they use to terrorize people on both sides of the border. What to do? If Obama does take steps toward a meaningful gun control bill, the NRA will have a heyday. They'll tell Americans that Obama threatens their constitutional rights, as they've claimed all along. As It Stands, the only winners seem to be the gun and ammunition industries who are thriving in this down economy. Dave Stancliff is a columnist for The Times-Standard.

Oh dear, I think Dave's friend broke the law (unless the shotgun was more than 50 years old). http://ag.ca.gov/firearms/pubfaqs.php What is the process for purchasing a firearm in California? All firearms purchases and transfers, including private party transactions and sales at gun shows, must be made through a licensed dealer under the Dealer Record of Sale (DROS) process. California imposes a 10-day waiting period before a firearm can be released to a buyer or transferee. A person must be at least 18 years of age to purchase a rifle or shotgun. To buy a handgun, a person must be at least 21 years of age, and either 1) possess an HSC plus successfully complete a safety demonstration with the handgun being purchased or 2) qualify for an HSC exemption. As part of the DROS process, the buyer must present "clear evidence of identity and age" which is defined as a valid, non-expired California Driver's License or Identification Card issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles. A military identification accompanied by permanent duty station orders indicating a posting in California is also acceptable. If the buyer is not a U.S. Citizen, then he or she is required to demonstrate that he or she is legally within the United States by providing to the firearms dealer with documentation that contains his/her Alien Registration Number or I-94 Number. Purchasers of handguns are also required to provide proof of California residency, such as a utility bill, residential lease, property deed, or government-issued identification (other than a drivers license or other DMV-issued identification). (PC Section 12071) How much is the Dealer's Record of Sale (DROS) fee? The State's DROS fee is $19.00 which covers the costs of the background checks and transfer registry. There is also a required $1.00 Firearms Safety Testing fee and a $5.00 Safety and Enforcement fee. If the transaction being processed is a dealer sale, consignment return, or return from pawn, the dealer may impose other charges as long as this amount is clearly shown as a "dealer fee" and not misrepresented as a state fee. In the event of a private party transfer, the firearms dealer may additionally charge a fee of $10 per firearm transferred. When settling on the purchase price of a firearm and before completing the transaction, you may want to ask the dealer to disclose and identify any and all fees he/she is charging to complete the transaction. (PC Sections 12076, 12082, and 12806) I want to sell a gun to another person, i.e., a private party transfer. Am I required to conduct the transaction through a licensed California firearms dealer? Yes. Firearm sales must be conducted through a fully licensed California firearms dealer. Failure to do so is a violation of California law. The buyer (and seller, in the event that the; buyer is denied), must meet the normal firearm purchase and delivery requirements. "Antique firearms," as defined in Section 921(a)(16) of Title 18 of the United States Code, and curio or relic rifles/shotguns, defined in Section 178.11 of Title 27 of the Code of Federal Regulations that are over 50 years old, are exempt from this requirement. Firearms dealers are required to process private party transfers upon request. Firearms dealers may charge a fee not to exceed $10 per firearm for conducting a private party transfer. Example:
(PC section 12072(d)) |

My reply to Dave. Not 100% sure on the jail time but it is hopefully close enough
I see over on his blog that people have already spotted that his friend probably broke the law and his response is his usual line of ranting insults and BS. What a Kook! Hi Dave, I saw the update on your blog, thank you for referring to your issue being with "assault weapons" instead of automatic weapons. I was shocked however to see you mention a friend of yours in Fortuna CA selling a shotgun without a background check, was the shotgun over 50 years old? if not your friend committed a serious crime punishable by up to 4 years in prison (if the person he sold it to is not legally allowed to possess forearms, is a minor, or is a gang member) or up to 1 year otherwise. In California all firearms transfers (even face to face private sales) must go through a firearms dealer and all CA laws regarding the 10 day waiting period, fees, and criminal background check must be followed (see below for info on this). If the shotgun was less than 50 years old I suggest your friend talks to a lawyer before some well-intentioned person reads your blog and reports an illegal sale to the California authorities. Regards, Mark...... http://ag.ca.gov/firearms/pubfaqs.php (I followed this with the FAQs as posted above) |

Someone needs to point out to him that there is no black market in the USA of fully automatic assualt weapons in the movies. When was the last time a crime was commited with a illegal full auto, maybe once every ten years tops? I think the ATF has a list of most common guns used in crimes, non of which are assualt weapons. |
|
Got my comment in: Dave, There is no huge black market of full auto weapons in the USA like in the movies. Here is a legit source for stats Time Magazine and the ATF: http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,320383,00.html Out of over 88,000 guns confiscated from crime scenes how many were full auto? Yeah, thats what I thought. |
|
Wasn't as polite as others
Mr. Stancliff,
Can you please direct me to where I can legally buy an M16 with no waiting period on the cheap? Last I checked, you had to undergo an extensive background check and pay a $200 tax. Also, the price for a M16 ranges from $10,000 to $18,500 - so if you know where I can get a legal one for cheaper, I'd love to know. I hope you will correct your article to fix the inaccuracies you portray about fully automatic firearms. Please educate yourself before you spout off non-sense. I would assume as a professional journalist you would know how to do research, shame on you and your editor. |
|
These things have been common in the US since the barrels full of M1 carbines in the 1960s, but we are the extremists.
He doesn't see that it is the gun grabbers that are the extremists. |
