    When you support your arguments with fallacies - and you have done nothing but - your arguments are unsound.
    It's really that simple.
    When you think you can stop doing that, let us know.

    Why do you refuse to understand this violates the Constitution?

    Unless you are a nut job and just point in a direction while pulling the trigger ( like most terrorists or crazy white kids), somehow I don't think aiming is of much importance.

    He does have an interesting point, though. Even a handgun typically fires at a high enough rate to be dangerous to crowds of people. Banning assault rifles is probably not going far enough.

    Hard to do with 15 million guns. That, and even registration of guns has proven problematic. In Connecticut, which started the registration of ARs, they have an estimated 5% compliance in registration.

    Love the way the left adopts fascism so fast....... Man, are you guys authoritarian by nature....

    Yes, really.
    Passing a law that forces the law abiding to turn in their guns absolutely violates the constitution.
    You cannot honestly think otherwise, and you most certainly cannot present a sound argument to that effect.

    13 states will prevent any repeal of the 2nd amendment. It requires 38 states to approve a constitutional amendment. If 13 states refuse, it's a no-go.

    No evidence that crazy white kids aren't aiming.

    I can't think of many organizations that don't function better with a leader. Just look what's happened to us in just one year with a imbecile in the White House.

    You'd think by the things they call the President, anti-Christ, Dictator, Hitler, the leftness would be arming up not banning.

    They look forward to the time when their Hitler takes power -- the left doesnt't have an issue with authoritarians, just those with an (R) next to their name.

    The paper work is amazing let alone the cost to buy a machine gun legally of any type as I happen to know a few people that had gone through the pain of buying them.

    So give that barrier to ownership they are in fact defacto ban.

    I myself would love to own a BAR but given the hoops to legally buying one it is not worth the trouble to me.

    If you can get them legally, they aren't banned.

    Show of hands of those who think the 'AR' (AR-15) stands for Assault Rifle?
    Do you think handguns should be banned? A handgun can and has been used to kill a large number of people in a short amount of time many times.

    LOL they had been defacto been ban for 80 years or so in the US but if you feel otherwise then let just do the same with assault rifles able to do mass killings even in the hands of non-experts and everyone will be happy and schools will be far be less likely to look like slaughterhouses from time to time.
