Hmmm,
Are you going to arm your self with assault rifle and 200 rounds
magazine or drum?


"Assault rifles" are and have been strickly controlled since 1934
* * (They are machine guns don't ya know...)
You have to jump through all kinds of hoops with the Feds and local
police and pay a $200 tax before you can get one.
If one the other hand you are babbling your ignorance about "assault
weapons" then you are talking about CERTAIN SEMI-automatic (single shot
to single trigger pull) rifles that have certain cosmetic features like
a bayonet lug that magically turn them into "assault weapons" while
changing NOTHING about how they operate, or anything else about their
performance.


Owning a 200 round magazine or drum is really a novelty item that you
would only use for fun but not for serious shooting
They have a NASTY habit of jamming at the worst moments.
Smart shooters stick with what the firearm was designed to use normally


You know wackos will come there with such a weapon with mass killing
power in short time.


And ???
What ??


All I need is just one shot to stop them
* * And then what ?


I am not against owning fire arm, first step should be banning the
ownership of assault type automatic weapons and high capacity
magazines/clips.


LOL
Are you really this ****ing stupid ?
IN the same sentence you declare, you're OK with owning firearms but
let's just ban firearms


And owning a gun is one thing using it properly and well is another,
*how many owners are like that?


Just about most who own them
The seem to be much better qualified to using their guns properly than
car drivers with all the training and licensing they go through...
Let's see
Gun owners with about 330,000,000 guns, have about 600 deadly accidents
a year, about a thousand injuries, and property damage that is so low as
to be negligible.
Car owners with about 300,000,000 cars have over 43,000 deaths, injuries
in the millions and property damage in the Billions


Maybe you should worry more about car owners.


Are always ready for surprise attack? If teachers are armed can they
concentrate on teaching or be on the look oiut for the sudden danger?


If you carry, you don't become a defact security guard
* * It's much closer to carrying an umbrella in case it rains.


IMO, the more gun, the more possibility of trouble. No thanks
no gun for me or my family.


Apparently stupidity is a requirement for hoplophobia.
* * I feel sorry for your defenseless family.


Hopefully your defective genes will stop with you and yours.


Empty cart rattles most!!!
In my 55 years driving, I never had road accident. i handled so many
different weapons light and heavy in the service. Trained as sniper,
sharp shooter in boot camp. Never missed assigned target, never had fire
arm accident. *When I was done working overdes, I did not choose to live
in the states for obvious reason. I never regret that decision
yet. Good people can defend themselithout using weapons. Only cowards
needs weapons.(they are usually mentally unsecure, that is why)
Illogical debates produce nothing progressive.


Like the dead Principal defended herself without a weapon?


The outcome would have been the same, perhaps worse.
