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.
You bypass all the checks and balances if you buy privately and 40% of
all gun purchases are done this way.
If I understood the NRA, I agree only partially with them. *I like the
idea of armed guards (professionals) in schools but not armed
teachers. * But armed guards in schools will not solve the overall
problem of mass killings because the criminals will just move from
schools to churches, malls, stadiums, train stations, etc... or other
places with less resistance.
I too was in favor of no semi automatic weapons in civilian hands but
I now I prefer to say it differently now.....I don't want civilians to
have guns as good or better than the military or police use, unless
they already own them. *In other words, I don't want military or
police to be out gunned by civilians. *If they satisfy this, civilians
can get whatever guns they want.
Do you realize that we did ban "assault weapons" and high
capacity magazines for a decade, starting in 1994. *Study after
study done by various organizations, including the CDC, which
clearly has no pro-gun agenda, concluded it made no difference
in crime rates, murder rates, etc.
So, either:
A: *You know so little that you don't realize the above
B: You do, but want to do it again, even though it's proven not to
work.
Further, I learned that some other countries have very tight gun
control and the mass killings are few or none but if that means to
remove guns from owners, I do not support that.- Hide quoted text -

How many times must I say it? You continue to astound us with
your knowledge and grasp of the subject. I and others post fact
after fact, with references, etc. that completely demolishes your
nonsense. You respond with "this is in dispute with CNN
information".
As if anyone even knows WTF you're talking about. You do
accomplish one thing. And that is demonstrating the total
ignorance and inability to respond of the anti-gun crowd.
Make sure you stay on that side, OK?
