    well lookie here even the grandfather clause 0ver 10 rounds is being removed, that will sure stop those bad guys from shooting each of us up on the streets of los angles NOT! and what about if there is another rodney king riot ?[​IMG] when the Korean store owners defended there propertys with high capacity magazines not anymore there going to be out gunned and be killed..

    And this affects who? Surely the gang banger thug is now going to turn in all of his/her high cap magazines so as to not get in trouble with the law....

    Sarcasm, correct? There is nothing common sense about such an approach.

    High capacity magazines are nothing more than a means for one person to have the ability to start a small war, if that person so chooses to do so. No person possessing common sense, would support such madness.

    Roof was able to reload 5 times. Didn't slow him down much at all. Only a progressive who has never handled a gun in his/her life would think this is going to do anything. And criminals are still going to be able to get these magazines easily. Like always, only law abiding non violent gun owners will be affected (perhaps that's the idea?)

    Let's be clear about this for non-Angelinos: the Rodney King riots wouldn't have happened the way it did if Police Chief Gates wasn't trying to "send a message" to city hall. The riots became out of control because the Police Chief didn't do his job!

    Yes, but you just dropped your guard by referring your argument to pipe bombs. We are talking about guns with high capacity magazines, not pipe bombs. Seeing that pipe bombs are illegal and guns are not, shows how weak your argument is. [/quote]

    Criminals don't abide by your "common sense gun restrictions"...er...unconstitutional gun control laws.

    These stupid council members just opened up another black market which the criminals are extremely happy for.

    Hey, how is that drug war going for ya?

    Lol! Dude, you are typing to a guy who has lots of guns. And I certainly know how to use them. Unless you are at war with the people around you, or are part of a gang that sells drugs, high capacity magazines are not necessary. If a man breaks into your house and you can't kill him with three rounds of three inch magnum 12 gauge buckshot, you haven't any business handling a gun to begin with.

    It's not that hard to change magazines.

    He doesn't understand anybody with a small bit of knowledge about metal work can make a gun.

    Anybody with a basic understanding of math can make a gun.

    The blueprints are everywhere, for most types of firearms. In 5 years I guarantee you there's a fully automatic 3-d printable firearm.

    Anybody with a basic understanding of chemistry can make a bomb.

    The only thing that's going to stop the bad people, is other people.

    Well the "Gun Free Zones" in L.A. didn't work. When the liberal city council initiated "Gang Free Zones" the Crips, Bloods, MS-13, 18th Street Gang all had a good laugh.

    You know how liberals are always calling for change, hoping maybe once they will get it right. :roflol:

    Even if they were ever to get anything right they would want to fix something that wasn't broken, that what liberals do.

    Who the gangs are really fearing right now is Donald Trump since 50% of all gang members in the sanctuary city of L.A. are illegal aliens.

    Unless there's four of them?

    Or unless their gun holds more rounds than yours.

    This is not a sensible gun restriction.

    High capacity magazines have many legitimate uses including self defense.

    This law strictly and absolutely serves one purpose which is to make ordinary people weaker.

    No form of gin control exists for any other reason and the arguments in favor of such laws fail all tests of logic.

    The definition of any criminal is one who breaks the law. How will more laws stop a.criminal?

    Or you miss some of your shots or they are tough enough to be shot and still press their attack

    And the comments from the stupid reporters about that guy's UZI is disturbing.

    This is the stupidest statement that I have ever read.

    No person with commonsense would listen to your ridiculous fear mongering.

    Any politician even advocating the removal of the rights of Americans to bear implements of defense is in violation of the Law, unless they First get the American people to accept a Constitutional Amendment to negate the 2nd Amendment.

    Thus, most politicians are convicted already.

    So someone who has a lot of guns is trying to limit other people's access to them. Typical.

    Now waitaminit, if the higher capacity magazines don't really make much difference in speed of fire why do YOU want them? In fact, given the way you're talking, what good are they at all? The Roof guy only shot 9 people, so didn't have much use for high capacity. The VA tech shooter lined his victims up execution style. The guy in Newtown did use high capacity, and this did enable him to kill 20 little kids before they could all scatter and escape or hide

    Again, it seems you are arguing that you need the hc magazine because you may need to kill several people rapidly in a riot, then you turn right around and say that they don't really help shooters to do exactly that. You can't have it both ways.

    Technically, could the Illegals in Mexifornia sue the State for infringing upon their right of interstate commerce and ability to obtain high cap mags in their pursuit of happiness through violent narco trafficking? :roflol:
