The anti-gun left -hates- people that know what they are talking about.
The generic reasoning behind a want for any ban is that there are some weapons for which there is no legitimate interest and that the government has justification for banning because it puts our society at risk.
If you take the anti-gun/ban position --- ANY gun puts our society at risk.
If you take the pro-gun/anti-ban position ---NO weapon should be restricted.
The bigger question is what falls within the gray areas.
You aren't willing or able to engage in the discussion as it has been presented to you?
So noted.
Yes. Its exactly the same thing.That is as stupid as saying that a ban on Roman Catholic churches doesn't deny anyone religious freedom because they can go to Episcopal cathederals or Luthern houses of worship.
Yeah...because a ban on assault weapons sooooo infringes on your ability to have hunting rifles or even handguns in your home....:roll::doh
It was certainly Mickey Mouse in nature :mrgreen:What an ignorant statment. :roll:
Simple posession of any firearm is no more a danger to public safety than the simple posession of penises.The ARCs arguments are based on a false premise-they pretend that public safety motivates them.

But then, isn't anyone with a penis is a potential rapist?
Shouldn't they then have their rights restricted accordingly?
Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the peoples' liberty's teeth. - George Washington
To anyone who thinks the constitution "allows" restrictions, or bans... consider these words.
Many liberals despise Washington and what he stood for just as many of them hate the constitution as being a roadblock to the imposition of a "peoples' paradise"

So now, it is official White House policy to reinstate the AW Ban.
Seems to me we were told there was no rational reason to express concern for our right to keep and bear arms under the Obama Administration...
An olympic shooter ,dureing the Cliton admin, was disallowed possession of her special weapon ,in Kalipornia ,becuase the appearance of the weapon was "not unlike an assault weapon"... /Kalipornia law. Single shot 22,bolt action ,with a fancy stock and stabilizer protrusion.The idiots who wrote the law don`t know a gun from a firearm...or one of those things we use for fun. Socialist law is a little trickyer that conservative law, So look out for Joe and Barry.
The olympic shooting team for the U.K. don't even live in the U.K. because they aren't allowed to shoot or own their OLYMPIC SPORTING ARM there.
How big of a slap in the face is that? "Compete for our country, but keep that **** out of here!!!"
the 3000 dollar 22short rapid fire pistols used in the olympic pentathalon and RF pistol events were classified as assault weapons by the Peoples' Republic of Kalifornia because they were semi auto and had a magazine in front of the trigger guard.
I could never live in California.
Especially in the line of work I'm going into... I'd be pissed off carrying the weapons I would be for work, then going home and not having the same courtesy extended to my family.
ABC News: Obama to Seek New Assault Weapons Ban
So... does anyone STILL think gun owners are paranoid?
Holder said that putting the ban back in place would not only be a positive move by the United States, it would help cut down on the flow of guns going across the border into Mexico, which is struggling with heavy violence among drug cartels along the border.
"I think that will have a positive impact in Mexico, at a minimum." Holder said at a news conference on the arrest of more than 700 people in a drug enforcement crackdown on Mexican drug cartels operating in the
I have felt there should be a logical gun tracking system in which the registered owner should have to account for all their guns if audited.
Any gun transaction should be through a background check etc. If a gun gets stolen then it should be the owners responsibility to immediately file it. May not be perfect but it is a start until a better tracking system can be implimented.
That being said I would never support a gun ban on recreational hunting rifles or self defense handguns to responsible citizens.
