So do you think that all citizens should have the same access to all the equipment and procedures and tasks that police, fbi and military have ?
I think that the FBI and police should not have any weapon that a civilian cannot own. No, I'm not answering your question. I'm stating my belief, related to your question. I don't think that the police (including federal ones) should own weapons that ordinary citizens cannot own. If the police can own it, civilians should be able to own it. So the answer is based on what weapons you think that the police should be allowed to own. Military is a different matter. I don't think civilians should be allowed to own any weapon that is not usable by a single person. (no crew-served weapons).
Why aren’t you answering the question ? Weapons are just equipment for police, fbi and military. Why shouldn’t citizens have access to all, the equipment and procedures of the police, fbi and military ?
First, I do think citizens should be allowed to own whatever equipment the police (including FBI) are allowed to own. Second, I think the military is a different situation. We shouldn't have everything the military is allowed to have--namely crew served weapons. What are your views on this? (answer your own question, please)
i have not heard any Dmocratic politician say to ban all guns or to confiscate guns. You want to show a quote?
Salwell, Booker: “I support gun licensing. You need a license to drive a car; using a gun shouldn’t have a lower standard,” Swalwell said. “I want to know if Sen. Booker’s assault weapons ban would include the 15 million on the streets now, or just future sales. My plan bans both Swalwell has advocated for a ban on the “possession of military-style semiautomatic assault weapons” that includes an estimated $15 billion federal mandatory buyback of those guns and criminal prosecution for firearm owners who attempt to keep the weapons. When asked in a CNN interview Monday whether he, like Swalwell, thinks people should be “thrown in jail” if people don’t give up assault weapons, Booker said that there should be a "reasonable period in which people can turn in these weapons." https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/...-booker-swalwell-lead-2020-democrats-leftward
No he did not. I asked if the average citizen should be allowed access to all equipment and procedures allotted to the police, fbi and military ?
Again as I said no Democratic politician has proposed the banning of all guns or the confiscation of all guns. I understand the slippery slope theory or fear by seriously this has not happened and will not unless we do not solve the mass shootings plague. If do not take steps and have background checks, restrict certain things maybe such a 100 round magazines eventually the volcano will build and when the volcano of mass killings using large magazine weapons will go boom and we could lose our right to bear arms. We may have to give up a little to hold onto a lot.
Banning assault weapons sales is a restriction. Even if some crazy Democrat or anti gun liberal wants to confiscate all guns thatbwould be impossible. Also very inadvisable.
That's not going to happen. Too many guns out there, too many people opposed. You're stuck with what you have.
It’s within the capability of any enforcement agency and local, state or federal govt. Making a weapon type illegal to own without proper license and registration has been in existence for decades.
It doesn’t matter how many guns are out there. There are more privately owned cars then guns, and registration and licensing has been handled for decades.
You said in post 307 "i have not heard any Dmocratic politician say to ban all guns or to confiscate guns." You were given examples of Dem politicians that want to confiscate guns. These things will do -nothing- to stop/prevent/reduce mass shootings. Giving -anything- takes us closer to having nothing.
You missed the part where they also want to ban the possession of existing 'assault weapons' - that is, confiscate them.
That's a bad comparision. I really don't think there is any way guns are going to be restricted in any meaningful way, there's no public desire for that.
His answer was only concerned with guns. If you never served, you’d never realize the weapons you use, is dependent upon your mission. If you have served, you forgot that important point. It doesn’t sound like many of the group that wants police and military weapons, were ever in the military.
A simple yes or no would suffice . All you can talk about is guns. You don’t seem to have clue about the mission and other equipment of police, the fbi and the military as they’re related. It seems to be over your head.
