Had to run a kid to cosmotology schools in Reno this afternoon and got to witness a Prop 8 couple working on their degrees. Not really sure where I stand other than the possible tax discussion of having more married couples filing jointly on their returns.

Of course regs and controls are great. Anyone serious about buying a weapon definately needs to be checked and held accountable for the purchase. I wish there could be a mandatory class for people considering a firearm purchase, kinda like the hunters ed classes NV people take before getting a hunting license. Perhaps not a pass/fail class (yet) but more of a safety briefing for resident purchasers. CCW carry permits require classes and qualification both as a class and on the range. The good teachers teach legal ramifications and shoot/don't shoot scenarios. Not a bad idea for resident purchasers.

Waiting periods are up to the state and municipality involved. Although it pains me to say it I do believe a waiting period isn't all that bad an idea. Seven days is a bit much. Three days seems plenty as it takes 48 hours to create a ding on the NCIC from anywhere in the US.

I think a safety briefing/qualification course isn't a bad idea at all. If you're really serious about purchasing a weapon, you should be willing to go through the necessary motions 'cause safety's something you just don't skimp on.

ok, what is Prop 8? is it a bill that's trying to ban gay marriage or something?
