Small town in northern Georgia, the conservatives there are trying to
pass a law that makes household gun ownership mandatory, and this has
already been a conservative made law in a county in Georgia. But, this
got me to thinking, the conservatives are all about LESS LAWS, at least
those laws that they don't like, and here they are telling everyone you
MUST own a gun....


That is old news. Kennesaw Georgia has had that law for 20 years.
There is an exception for anyone who doesn't want to, so it is just
symbolic.

Yeah, but jps' irrational version was much more fun to read.

Well, stupid, it was me who posted this, not JPS. Also, stupid, this is
about NELSON, GA, not Kennesaw, and Kennesaw is in the COUNTY that I
mentioned as previously enacting this law. BUT, none of this answers my
question as to WHY the right seems to think it's okay for them to
dictate whether or not I have a gun in my house, but they claim to want
less government intrusion in their lives..... purely hypocritical.

OK I was not willing to wait for you to try to find it (it wasn't the
top hit on Google so you didn't really have a chance)

The law includes this language

" Exempt from the effect of this section are those heads of households
who ... conscientiously oppose maintaining firearms as a result of
beliefs or religious doctrine"

I assume you would have a "belief" that would keep you from wanting to
own a gun so you are exempt.
Like I said, you don't have to if you don't want to.
It should also be noted that there is no penalty for breaking this
law.

That does NOT negate from the fact that it is a LAW, and as such is
enforceable. It also does not negate from the fact that the right wing
acts as if they want less laws but make more laws when it suits THEM. It
also does not negate from the fact that the new law is in NELSON, GA,
not Kennesaw and is a different law that does not contain the same
verbage as each other. There IS a penalty for breaking this law, and it
is the same as other city penalties. Also, there are other laws on the
books in other states that have similar laws.
