    what's stupid is saying you'll make a bet on something when you don't know what you're talking about

    Several of my questions to start and many more from other contributors.

    I was going to take time to find them and regurgitate, then I started to re-read your "answers" and it hit me that you are so unwilling to admit a truth that you have willingly (or unwittingly) subjected yourself to hours of browbeating.

    You repeated, ad-nausea, that you don't care what they "call" the gun, you simply want all those you deem "rapid fire" to be banned from private ownership. In your mind rapid-fire=semi-automatics and includes all of the semi-automatics that have been presented to you as clear examples of non-assault weapons throughout this thread, hand OR long.

    That's it isn't it? Why don't you either come to grips with it and admit your true desire?

    It would make things so much easier on all of us.

    Your OP

    What did you mean by: "if these kinds of weapons weren't made available to civilians, this sort of thing would be preventable"

    If not a ban?

    Circle much?

    Why???? Is it because of your irrational hatred of guns? The gun Adam used was not "rapid-fire" but had a common semi-automatic trigger.

    Remember Vtech murders. That guy killed more people with weaker guns. In addition, the people he killed weren't small children but grown adults who could run. At the end of the day, mentally unstable people should be given help as soon as possible. People should stop trying to exploit the massacre for their political gains. And for the love God, stop this nonsense regarding "gun free zones"; as long as we have crazy people, there's no such thing.

    no, i grew up hunting in north louisiana

    as i've said repeatedly, it's because rapid-fire, military style rifles have little benefit and a great capacity for harm

    it fires rapidly, despite your bs

    so what?

    Why is it that you do not see that, when you are given all of the functional similarities between that and a common varmint rifle, that it is clear to the informed your problem is really just the cosmetic aspect of a weapon that inspires your desire to ban?

    And that view is entirely irrational.

    what a joke, nothing i said is even remotely related to cosmetic characteristics

    you're like the idiot that said he would bet that chicago's population exceeds the rest of the state

    Right, 'cause I know the difference between an assault weapon and a squirrel gun and refuse to sensationalize the squirrel gun.

    hehe, you sure have me pegged.

    I think he's an alien, or a figment of our imaginations sent here to make us run in circles. Either way there is no one who could be this lost and be for real.

    Well, most handguns have a max 15 round clip while assault rifles can have a 30 round clip. If we did a test which 100 bullets were fired, the assault riffle would win since it takes less time to reload than a handgun.

    Not true. The Ruger Ranch Rifle holds a 30 round magazine and has the same firepower as the AR-15 but was not banned during the last AWB. I just didn't look as scary.
