    Outdoor retailer L.L. Bean is to no longer sell rifles to anyone under 21. The company joins other big retailers Kroger, Walmart and Dick's Sporting Goods in changing its policies in the wake of the Florida school massacre.http://abcn.ws/2FaRdEE

        I didn’t know half these stores sold guns. Lol! I’m expecting to hear, “CVS pharmacy has decided to not sell shotguns to folks under 21” any day now.

        It is fantastic to see corporations showing some social responsibility, and dare I say, some spine which seems to be sadly lacking in many law makers.

        Not meaningless. It is commonly called 'taking first steps'. Guns are not toys. MOST reasonable ppl understand cars are not toys and there is a requirement to demonstrate competency through passing a test. Have your 2A guns, but what is wrong with an age limit & tests?

        MMM, So constitutional rights are bestowed with no implied requirements for responsibility? I assume you would be ok with 10 year olds purchasing a gun.

        I’m sorry can’t follow that one? Age matters in Constitutional Rights. Toddlers here in WI thanks to #ReplaceScottWalker can get a hunting license with an adult. #FlipItBlue #NRAIsATerroristOrganization #NRABloodMoney

        Really? I was being sarcastic. I am Australian & most of us cannot get our head around the easy access to guns in USA. So 'wild west'. We can have guns but we have strict rules to comply with if you want a gun. No online purchases etc & Fed register

        No I am serious. Toddlers here in WI can get any kind of hunting license and shoot the gun themselves, in theory. Well a lot of us here in America can’t get our heads around it either, we look to Australia as a place of sanity in the gun debate world !thank you

        Not to worry, you can still go to your local honeycomb hideout/white supremacist supply center and by suppressors, A.R. 15’s,50 caliber sniper rifles, whatever really. I don’t know why you’re whining.
