Gun laws in the United States (by state)

As you are a frequent contributor to this article, you might want to weigh in on the discussion Talk:Gun_laws_in_the_United_States_(by_state)#2009_Brady_Campaign_State_Scorecard. Niteshift36 (talk) 23:09, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Haynes v. United States

I've started a talk page discussion. Let's continue the discussion there. Shadowjams (talk) 09:30, 24 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In doing the research on that page, I found a book that looks to have a lot more information about much of the NFA and its challenges, but unfortunately Google book preview isn't available. If you're inclined to find it in hard copy, it might be of some interest: Guns in American society: an encyclopedia of history, politics, culture, and the law, Volume 1, Guns in American Society: An Encyclopedia of History, Politics, Culture, and the Law, Gregg Lee Carter, Gregg Lee Carter, ISBN 1576072681. I have no clue what the tone/politics of the book are, but it looked relevant. Shadowjams (talk) 22:00, 24 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thanks. Next time I'm at the library, I'll see if they have a copy. Hoplophile (talk) 22:03, 24 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Hoplophile. I hope you will agree to this mediation, by posting the word "agree" and your signature at Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Gun laws in the United States (by state)#Parties' agreement to mediation. We might need that for the mediation to proceed. Your subsequent participation in any discussions would be encouraged but optional. Thanks. — Mudwater (Talk) 13:41, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You are in violation of the 3RR rule

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. DocOfSoc (talk) 01:18, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The excerpt does not belong in the lead paragraph. Please familiarize yourself with the following policy [1] Please avoid changes that smack of racism to a large portion of any population.

Please Remember to edit in "Good Faith." In addition, the info is already contained in the body of the article so is redundant. I see you have not made many edits and in good faith I am assuming you are not familiar with Wiki's policies or pillars. You may want to do so. Happy Editing! Shalom!
