Actual weapons of war

Lately, I've been reading a lot of journalists calling AR-15 type semi-automatic rifles "weapons of war." Far from it. This article links to actual weapons of war owned by terrorists in a high gun control country--Germany.

its a stupid term anyway because the Bannerrhoids want to make the low wattage sheeple think a weapon of war is "more dangerous or deadly" than a non weapon of war

The Ka-bar fighting Utility Knife is a "weapon of war" given it has been issued to US military forces for decades. A Howard Clark L6 or 1076 Katana has never been issued to fighting forces but its far more lethal than the Ka-bar. The Mauser 98 was issued to German soldiers in both world wars, was used by many other countries as well and was thus clearly a weapon of war but so what? most modern hunting rifles are either direct copies of that firearm and for years many hunting rifles were actually Mauser 98s that had been customized with better stocks and scope mounts to be hunting rifles.

 

Civilian marksmenship program, their argument is incredibly invalid.

 

And your refute is........?
Most firearms are decedents of war machinery. So what?
Thousands of military advancements have found their way into civilian life.

 

One of the the obstacles facing the BM is the fact that the US GOVERNMENT sold 2 million or so MI carbines to us civilians (I have 5 or so of them-some came from the DCM others came from its privatized successor CMP)

There is no legitimate way of banning an AR 15 without banning an MI carbine.

I think he was saying the BM arguments are incredibly stupid

 

The argument that we have to ban "weapons of war" is invalid crue. THEIR argument is invalid because THEIR GOVERNMENT sells things FROM the armory of the US government that were ACTUALLY manufactured for ACTUAL war.
As icing on the cake, good old president obama recently authorized the addition of 1911's to the program. Should become active in 2017.

So any argument he makes going for a ban on this is the product of a diseased mind.

 

"Weapon of war" or some similar construct is a fallacious to emotion, ignorance and/or dishonesty.

If those that seek to ban these guns had a legitimate argument for doing so, they would not have to reset to fallacies in the justification for said ban.
