Opinion Where do you draw the line on gun regulation?

[shankmcgank]

Were all rifles banned with the assault weapon ban?

Please stop wasting my time.

rifle or an assault weapon.

I don't recall rifles ever being banned.

Lol.

How do you figure? Ever heard of a musket shooting spree? Nope. Never. Under my proposal you get two extra shots. So most that would get shot is 3. Mass shootings would never happen like with muskets.

Because I'm not a fan of YOU limiting MY ability to defend myself and family . . . I want to have the advantage as much as possible. If that's having a 30rd mag then that's what I want. Heck, give me that 40rd mag and 60rd drum.

What percentage of shootings are actually legit "mass shootings"?

Do you even know the difference in an assault weapon and a non assault weapon?

Also the difference in an AR15 and a standard hunting rifle?

Why would you want an AR15?

 

[blaseblah]

Lol.

Are all rifles assault weapons? Are all assault weapons rifles? The answer to both is no. Stop wasting my time. If you want to contribute to this thread then answer the question: where do you draw the line at gun regulation?

Why would you want an AR15?

Have you had a chance to shoot one? They're actually really fun to take out to the range and/or use for actual hunting.

He probably thinks AR stands for “assault rifle”

Doubtful, even the OP doesnt know.

Once you've fired a cannon you've played your card and advertised your presence. It also takes a long time to reload. You wouldn't be able to make a quick getaway and take the cannon with you. Anyone could run up on you and fuck your shit up. It also sucks at hitting individual people, you would have to target a crowd. Good at targeting an advancing army in tight formation but impractical today.

wtf are you talking about?

yeah, one definitely couldn't be fired at buildings or something. or placed in a u-haul.

lolz @ whatever scenarios you're making up.

why did you even mention individual people/crowd? your own argument was that it was bad for killing en masse. ie: what firing at a crowd would do. like... what? pick one.

You think that's more efficient than the modern weapons available today? I don't see what point you think you are making.

 

[Lord_Impaler]

Why would you want an AR15?

To participate in major armed conflict as a non-state actor.

 

[bobgeese]

You literally just said owning a nuke is ridiculous. Are you going back on that?

I don't think so. I think you are rational enough to understand that people owning nukes would mean the swift end to society as we know it.

Please work on your reading comprehension, then re-read my last few posts. I specifically outline why YOU mentioning nukes is ridiculous.

Why aren't you answering my question? Lol.

 

[Archie Goodwin]

Why do you think people need assault weapons?
I'm all for protecting yourself and your property if you go through stringent mental health checks etc, but why do you NEED an AR15?

We don't NEED. But the Second Amendment isn't about "need" - shall NOT be infringed

 

[MoparOrNoCar]

Why aren't you answering my question? Lol.

So you ignored my questions and asked me a question and are wondering why I'm ignoring your question? lol

...WAT? for your dumb criteria of killing, en masse?

you don't think a freakin' cannon would be more efficient than a rifle? are you even serious? this is so laughably backwards that i feel embarrassed just typing this.

Define gun and what your limit on personal ownership would be.

I’m no gun expert, but semi automatics , hand guns, and shotguns should be OK if you have no criminal history…
I wouldn’t really feel comfortable if my neighbor had a working Panzer tank in his driveway..

You keep contradicting yourself. It doesn't matter who mentions nukes, the question is what level of weaponry should citizens be allowed to own. That extends all the way from basic knife to nuclear weapon capable of leveling a city. Stop dodging the question.

I'm basically in the same boat but ideally I think handguns should be more regulated.

A cannon is impractical in today's society. There's a reason we don't use them anymore. Also the idea that they could cause anywhere close to the same damage as a nuke is utterly ludicrous. It's a primitive device from an earlier time.
