Laws - View Law: GUNS & WEAPONS |
Guns & Firearms:
Laws are set to protect kids and adults when dangerous instruments are involved. This applies to driving a car as well as to possession of guns. In Arizona, the law states that kids under the age of 18 are not allowed to carry guns. (ARS 13-3111). This law also provides some exceptions where kids are allowed to have and use a gun under certain restricted conditions. For example, a kid can carry a gun if he or she is with a parent, grandparent, qualified hunter, safety instructor, or qualified firearms safety instructor as long as there is permission from a parent or guardian. When involved in lawful hunting or shooting events or marksmanship practice, kids between the ages of 14 and 18 are allowed to be in possession of a firearm.(ARS 13-3111). Because there are many exceptions and details in this statute, you may want to read the law or consult a gun expert or lawyer before actually possessing a firearm.
Deadly Weapons:
Arizona Law (ARS 13-3101) says that a Deadly weapon is anything that is designed for lethal use, including a firearm.
It is against Arizona law to carry a firearm or any deadly weapon on a school campus. (ARS 13-3102)

alright kids, you know what? guns are tools. period. used to fun, sport, defense, and to kill. period. how do you act around a hot stove? carefully. what happens if you dont? you get burned. period. a gun's a tool, just like a hammer, a drill, an axe, etc. opposing guns is like opposing cars because "cars kill people". we all know cars don't kill people. recklessness in vehicles kills people. just like the stove, reckless? you get burned. careful? you're not burned and you end up with good results. we need guns. people need to learn about them, need to be safe. need to be careful. period

BB guns are also very dangerous, what I don't get is why having like real guns without a license is illegal, while having a BB gun without a license is OK while not having a license. When a BB gun is almost exactly the same. this is super dooper opper true!<----not >>;

I think kids that bring guns to school just want to be "cool", and some people even pretend to think that it's awesome or something like that just to seem all bad. So yeah, that's all I have to say.

Or you could just accept that the responsibility for ones actions is ones own and not the governments right or business as long as it does not infringe on anothers rights as clearly stated in the Constitution ( which we so "strictly" <*insert voice dripping w/ sarcasm here* follow and obey. If you think that the government banning guns, think again. Look at other countries where that happens. They are called dictatorships. Also when entertaining the idea of legality in purchasing guns ( handguns @ age 21 ) criminals don't obey the law, so how would that help? Think about it.
