    You've dodged this question two times now. Will this be the third, or will you actually answer?

    Which of the following weapons should be classified as "assault weapons" and banned? Why?

    Their hasn't been any studies that say the AWB had any effect on gun violence from those banned weapons. I don't think just banning a certain kind of gun will make a difference.

    What will make a difference, is proper oversight of gun sales. Records of gun sales should not be destroyed, as well anyone buying a gun should have to be documented (the gun show loophole for starters). Which should also mean that you must be a citizen of the country, have no criminal record, and must pass a certified safety course etc..etc..

    Taking peoples guns won't do much to stem crime, but keeping guns out of the hands of those who haven't proven their responsibility would help moreso.

    Yes this time and we swallow it and:
    My kids have a good home, my wife loves me, I have a bike, V8 vehicles... So they want to ban a gun or two? So what...

    Five years later; Certain books and chapters of the Bible are deemed hate speech and can not be mentioned in Church.

    Five years later; so they want to leave me with a revolver and one long gun. I can live with that...

    Five years later you are under arrest as an enemy of the state! Why? Your kids mentioned that their daddy did not like the president.

    Ten years pass and you are released. No charges or trial as the NDAA said they could do this. You look around and the Churches are closed (all deemed hate groups that catered to the mentally ill). You get home and your kids are having a drug/sex party in your home. Your wife is serving time for undisclosed reasons...

    Velkom to Amerika 2037. Believe it!

    She can't answer... because she is either ignorant or intellectually dishonest.

    By the way... they are all .223... so your statement is double stupid.

    Firing two hand guns at the same time like Major Hassan did at Ft. Hood massacre, and Cho did At VA Tech massacre is the equivalent of holding one .223. The military major was knowledgeable of a good substitute from not having accessibility to what Lanza used.

    So banning the assault rifles is the beginning, before the handguns used in the VA tech/Ft. Hood massacre could be banned.

    It is easier to use the Bush master instead of two hand guns as used in VA tech, so the mass shooters learn from each other.

    You implied that I was with your post responding to me. You "LOL'd" that I didn't mention both parties, you made sarcasm that I only criticized the left...

    Only a small minority of insecure, paranoid gun fetishists are getting themselves into such a tizzy and exhibiting stress incontinence. The American People, most gun owners included, will approve such reasonable measures in taking back the Second Amendment from the extremist pifflewits who hijacked it.

    Squinty LaP and his brownnosers will indulge in the usual hysterics, but they've been coddled long enough. Their defending the right of homicidal crackpots and criminals to firearms to gun down innocents must end.

    Power to the People - where it belongs in a democracy!

    They are all the SAME GUN, just with different cosmetic packages. They all fire .223 rounds at the same rate of fire, and at the same speed as all of the others. But some are categorized as "assault weapons" and others are not.

    Does that make any sense?

    Dental - it doesn't make sense. But that doesn't mean it shouldn't be addressed. Maybe changing the definitions to relate to bullet size and speed and chamber amount. Streamline it so their is a fair analysis across the board, rather then. Just throwin up ones hands in defeat

    School killings go back a VERY long way

    Note the worst was way back in 1927....and they used a bomb.

    The truth of your contention will be easy to see. If he demands registration, he plans to grab. If not he only plans to annoy

    He can demand registration all he wants to. The only thing, and I mean the ONLY thing, that he could do to enforce that would be to allow unrestricted police access to the homes of US citizens.

    There are an estimated 100-200 million unregistered firearms in this country...If the citizens choose to simply not register their guns then what exactly is he supposed to do about it? Kind of hard to force people to register unregistered guns that technically belong to "nobody".

    The thing about registration, is it doesn't really effect criminal gun crimes. What it does do, is bring down suicides and assists police in accidental shooting incidents. I know because we had a long gun registry and that's pretty much what it did.

    I understand that but that's not my point. My point is that there is absolutely nothing the federal government can do to force people to register unregistered firearms. Unless they adopt the authoritarian policy of pissing on your rights even more and kicking your door down whenever they feel like it.

    Something tells me if that were to happen fishing workers would lose the number one spot as most dangerous jobs.

    Which is exactly why very few law enforcement officials would actually go along with it. Most wouldn't go along with it based on it being flat out unconstitutional. And most of the rest wouldn't do it for the reasons you just stated.

    First if you admit registration doesn't really effect criminal gun crimes, and the reason some are flipping out and pushing for gun grabbing and or stricter regulations is to reduce gun crimes then doesn't it seem stupid? If it won't have the effect you want then why push for it?

    Secondly, how the hell does requiring registration of guns bring down suicides with firearms? That makes no logical sense whatsoever.

    Confiscating guns is unconstitutional.

    There has to be a limit to this dictator's power over our country.
