Delaware lawmakers are returning to this year's legislative session with a number of gun control measures, including a proposal to raise the minimum age to purchase a gun or ammunition to 21 years old. House Bill 330 would set the minimum age requirement for whom a person can sell, give, or transfer a firearm or ammunition for a firearm at 21 years old, the earliest age someone is already able to buy a handgun in Delaware. An amendment filed Tuesday would carve out exceptions for active service members and qualified law enforcement officer and excludes the restriction from applying to bows.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
