Why youtube and guns should both require IQ tests
- hga 16y agoAs someone with I gather a high IQ and who's spent a lot of time around people with much higher IQs and who's been shooting since kindergarten, I'd say anyone with an IQ somewhere over 110 most definitely could use a safety test after some safety training. However: "In sum, it is clear that the Framers and ratifiers of the Fourteenth Amendment counted the right to keep and bear arms among those fundamental rights necessary to our system of ordered liberty" (McDonald v. Chicago, page 31, http://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/09pdf/08-1521.pdf http://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/09pdf/08-1521.pdf) And applying prior restraint to such rights is subject to serious scrutiny (ought to be "strict scrutiny", but that's TBD since both D.C. and Chicago's effective total handgun bans would fail any level of scrutiny).
