are u kidding? columbine,sandy hook, denver, army base,washington, D.C.. assault stlye means weapons that are used in war,with high capacity bullets. such as ak47,ar15.
Yep spiked at 58% and has been declining since. What is your point? - - - Updated - - - Nope. Columbine was used with post ban firearms. Sandy hook was a shotgun. The army base was a handgun. DC could have been done with any rifle. "Assault style" does not mean anything. No military in the world fields an AR-15 or GP WASR-10 (the civvy legal AK), why would they when they can field automatic weapons? Tell me, as you seem very knowledgeable, what is a "high capacity bullet"?
Nope. They account for some 2% of all gun crimes. More people are killed via blunt force trauma than by all rifles combined.
The statistics provided by the FBI, the chief law enforcement agency for the entire united states, say that you are wrong in your statement. - - - Updated - - - Police officers are trained to view all firearms as equally dangerous; especially when it is with regard to them. - - - Updated - - -
No. But you are. Military firearms are already tightly restricted and regulated. The firearms on the general market are not weapons of war, regardless of what they look like. There is no such thing as a high capacity bullet. You speak of nothing but nonsense.
I really do not know why we debate with ignorant gun control proponents. They have no logical, factual or constitutional reasoning behind their desire to control guns. Additionally, I have no intention of registering or allowing a single gun, mag or bullet of mine to be confiscated without a bloody fight. IMO, gun control nuts need to beware of the real war they will cause if they do not back away from there ridiculous gun control wet dreams.
Then why are there a record number of inmates doing life? Why weren't they paying attention to the laws?
Automatic weapons are used in war. Not the civilian weapons that are popular, and most commonly owned in America. It all makes sense now ... All along you have had a false belief that the weapons you refer to are machine guns.
That was the core of the legislation here and quite frankly, there are ways of making it available when needed but less available when not - not that I believe the whole thing about shooting home invaders because that is not really that common unless you are in the drug industry in which case - just desserts
Please enlighten this firearm safety instructor how you keep a firearm at the ready for the unknown, and at the same time keep it "less available". And in addition tell me how storage legislation can be enforced. Keep in mind, we already don't prosecute irresponsible parents for leaving guns out where children have access.
The only way such laws could be enforced is the removal or the 4th and 5th Amendments, which basically gut the entire Bill of Rights. I suspect the anti-gunners goal is such.
weren't there a lot of Jews and a large number of Russians that ended up in death camps who proudly proclaimed they had nothing to hide? - - - Updated - - - This portion of your post will be overlooked......
If you disarm the crooks you don't need the gun. Why is it that Aussies, Brits, Japanese, Singaporeans, even bloody Kiwis do not feel it a requirement to sleep with a gun under the pillow at instant readiness?? Why is it only Americans? There are gun safes that do not require forever to open http://www.gunvault.com/ Just as taking tablets out of foil wraps can be enough to stop an attempted suicide so can the few seconds this takes stop a homicide/drunken attempted or completed suicide - - - Updated - - - No loss since you Americans seem to want to dismantle your vaunted first amendment
