Well turtledude is a gun banner in those cases

that's like saying I am a kidnapper because I believe those convicted of armed robbery ought to be locked up against their will

just give it up-you are burying yourself in stupid posts. You're the gun banner and you aren't going to rehabilitate your reputation by claiming I am a gun banner because I believe people in prison or who have used guns to kill others in violation of the law should be banned from having weapons

that stupid tactic is up there with "if you think people should be able to own a GLOCK you must support them owning ICBMS"

its weak discredited nonsense that the anti gun moment has unsuccessfully spewed for years

If they are still violent they should not be let loose into society. Only stupid people would do that.


However once they have served their punishment and have been found to no longer be a threat to society they should have all their rights reinstated including the right to bear arms.

yep, dope possession, tax evasion, insurance fraud, etc-presumption that they aren't a threat society

someone who murdered others-shouldn't get out

armed robbery, rape with the use of a weapon. felonious assault, attempted murder, kidnapping with the threat fuse of a weapon-presumption they are a danger.

You have openly admitted that you are a gun banner. I will be happy to quote your statement of "I support gun bans" in my signature line if you refer to me as a gun banner again. And in every post I will let people know that you are a gun banner
 
vegas giants said:
You are a gun banner. You clearly said you support a gun ban. Those are your words. I will now refer to you as a gun banner everytime you call me that term. Or perhaps bannerhoid.

Or we could put this aside and have civil debate. Your choice

more dishonesty. You want gun bans. You are on record for wanting gun bans that have nothing to do with malfeasance on the part of the citizen. so stop the stupid nonsense. criminals, upon conviction, lose lots of rights. that is not "banning guns".

and if you are trying to pretend that you aren't a gun banner, we will laugh.

stop lying. no one with a brain or who isn't a troll is going to claim that saying those in prison should not have guns is being a gun banner.

I have 11+ years here. People know where I stand on this issue. and I think they know what your schtick is. so stop lying

that has nothing to do with gun control but rather felon control

so you believe in life sentences for all violent crime?
Click to expand...

They just want to control everyone and someone convicted of a crime is just easier to step on than the rest of us. The only difference between most criminals and the good citizens is the criminal has been caught.

My sergeant in the MP's used to tell the story about when he was younger how 4 people went out one night having pizza and a few beers. On there way home one was pulled over for DUI and became a criminal. He used to say I was at that table and drank the same amount of beer but I am still a good citizen because I wasn't caught.

4 other people did the same thing and 1 person on the way home had a kid run out in front of his car. He is now a felon. The rest are still good citizens. That is the real truth and difference between good people and a lot of criminals.

having spent 30 years as a prosecutor-some of what you say makes sense. People who rob a bank or hold up a convenience store are quite different than someone who was convicted of aggravated vehicular homicide which is not always a felony in some states.

He supports violent felons being banned, a thing that most gun owners agree with. You would just as soon see all guns banned. That is the difference. *facepalm*

Prove it. Why do gun extremists lie so much?
 
Moderate Right said:
Convicted felons and terrorists shouldn't be running around free to need be banned from guns.

Hmm... isn't multiple DUI and property crime over a certain amount a felony? The idea that every felony deserves an LWOP (at least for 2A rights) sentence is a bit much. IMHO, a better system (deal?) is if someone is not deemed so dangerous that they should never be released from prison then after their release they should have all rights restored. I am for stiffer sentences for violent offenses but nonviolent, intoxication or property crime should not carry a life sentence.
 
TurtleDude said:
well you posts are full of lies. so that proves I am right

That is factually incorrect. A gun banner like yourself should try to be honest on a gun control forum. You are failing

Like a shoulder fired Type 91 Kai MANPAD? No, not alone, not unless its my role on a squad that has other long guns as primaries. Not even an RPG would make a good "arm"

And I thought we needed guns to defend ourselves from our own government if they ever got out of control? How exactly do you expect to fight the United States military with nothing more than semi automatic rifles?
Click to expand...

Should a despotic future government warrant overthrow and target its people, why would you expect the entire US military to ignore their oath? Why would you expect anyone to try to take them on, head on, with rifles? You really think we would meet on a battlefield or something? Have you heard of the Oathkeepers?

Guerrilla warfare, interrupting logistical supply lines and the assassination of any despot who dares to poke his head out in public would be the way I would expect a resistance to go. Also that Government and military would require business as usual and an intact infrastructure to continually fund its operations. It would be foolish to unleash the full might of the military, engage in drone strikes, etc.. on US soil.
