Small town in northern Georgia, the conservatives there are trying to

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.












Salmonbait








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.

Poor kevin. Proven wrong again.




You should learn to read, and research better.


YOU wrote: "WHY the right seems to think it's okay for them to *dictate* whether or not I have a gun in my house..."

But the law you are talking about actually says:

(2) Exempt from the effect of this section are those heads of households who suffer a physical or mental disability which would prohibit them from using such a firearm. Further exempt from the effect of this section are those heads of households who are paupers or who conscientiously oppose maintaining firearms as a result of beliefs or religious doctrine, or persons convicted of a felony.

So, if you lived there, you would not be required (dictated) to posess a gun. I beleive you qualify for an exemption on more than one count.
