[W:#389: 420, 790]Texas elementary school reports 'active shooter' on campus

lol how very fascist of you. passing a law you know is unconstitutional, that would immediately be stayed, purely intended to inconvenience and punish law abiding citizens, and that would have exactly zero effect on shootings in the US.

I know it is not unconstitutional... Just like the president can ban the importation of firearms and ammunition TODAY with no approval from congress... Biden should get off his ass and make it happen...
 
Where’s your source that soldiers primarily use their M4’s/M16’s on full-auto or burst?
Where's your source they primarily use them on semi?
I carried an M16 for 8 years in the Army including a deployment to Iraq. I used burst ONE TIME during my entire career and throughout the tens of thousands of rounds I fired: during Final Protective Fire training at Basic.
lol ok
Other than that, I used my rifle in semi-auto and it was practically no different from a civilian AR-15.
sure you did. But regardless, as I correctly pointed out. No army on earth uses an AR15. They are not in any way, weapons of war.
 
Similarly, the 1st Amendment doesn’t permit credentialing the Press. Anyone who claims to be the Press must be treated as the Press and the government can’t require them to get credentials.
For now.
 
I know it is not unconstitutional...
Because you are ignorant of constitutional law.

Why do you advocate the passing of "laws" that are entirely ineffectual? Most firearms are not imported. Most ammo is not imported.
 
Sticking your fingers in your ears doesn’t change that
I know. The constitution doesn't permit registration, no matter how hard you stomp your feet.
 
You can't ban any gun in common usage for lawful purposes. DV v Heller.

No it can't.
An AR style weapon is not for common use for lawful purposes. Same with the machine gun. It can be done.

Oh, I understand constitutional law. I also know that “conservatives” don’t give a shit about constitutional law.

I’m not the one who hasn’t quoted the constitution. I asked you to show me, but you’d rather just say I don’t know anything.
 
An AR style weapon is not for common use for lawful purposes.
It is the most popular and widely owned semi auto rifle in the US, and used in less than 1% of crimes. It is by definition in common use for lawful purposes.
Same with the machine gun. It can be done.
No, it can't. Machine guns are not banned. You can go to your local class 3 dealer today and purchase one.
 
Other countries... so what are we doing wrong?
Look to the division currently actively SOWED in this country today.

I'd start there. Stop the identity politicking. Stop telling your tribe that the others are evil and the enemy. Be kind.
The MSM, politicians, any and all power hungry elites are in the positions they are in because they divide. They divide to stay in power.
Term limits would go a ways to creating a more balanced and fruitful political sphere.

lol ok

sure you did. But regardless, as I correctly pointed out. No army on earth uses an AR15. They are not in any way, weapons of war.

That’s not true either. The Bermuda Defense Force does use the AR-15. Or at least did in the past.

But there is no practical difference between the ways soldiers use their M16’s/M4’s in 99% of combat and a civilian AR-15.

If you knew anything about the military, you would know that. Fully automatic and burst fire is highly inaccurate. Except for suppressive fire at close range, full auto from a rifle is basically useless. Soldiers fire their rifles in semi-auto and every single veteran on this site will confirm what I just said.
 
Because you are ignorant of constitutional law.

Taxing firearms and ammunition to cover the cost of firearms injuries and death is not unconstitutional..

Why do you advocate the passing of "laws" that are entirely ineffectual? Most firearms are not imported. Most ammo is not imported.

Then banning the importation should have no effect on the market. Afraid you are wrong?
 
I know. The constitution doesn't permit registration, no matter how hard you stomp your feet.

Does is permit registration for voting?
 
Explain.

The "gun culture" is not the problem.

It's our "sin culture" that's the problem.

A child s protected under 1A as a "person" since it does not set age limits.


By that logic and the logic we can't alter 2A at all, a child should also have those same rights since they are people with no age limit set. But we did alter the 2A so children can't buy guns. So don't tell me we can't alter the 2A because then you are also telling me a child can buy a gun.

It's a lot of things, including guns, that are the problem.
 
I've quoted 3 separate amendments it violates.

I've shown you. 2nd, 4th and 5th amendments.
You pointed to them. You didn’t quote them
 
That’s not true either. The Bermuda Defense Force does use the AR-15. Or at least did in the past.
Lol the bermuda defense force.
But there is no practical difference between the ways soldiers use their M16’s/M4’s in 99% of combat and a civilian AR-15.
Yes, there is.
If you knew anything about the military, you would know that.
I do. It's why I'm able to correct you.
Fully automatic and burst fire is highly inaccurate. Except for suppressive fire at close range, full auto from a rifle is basically useless.
I agree with most of this.
Soldiers fire their rifles in semi-auto and every single veteran on this site will confirm what I just said.
some do, some don't. The simple fact remains the same. No army on earth uses an AR15. They are not weapons of war. The simple fact remains also, even if they were, it's irrelevant.
 
Taxing firearms and ammunition to cover the cost of firearms injuries and death is not unconstitutional..
It is entirely unconstitutional.
Then banning the importation should have no effect on the market. Afraid you are wrong?
No. I just don't see the point of passing completely useless and ineffectual laws that will in no way have any effect on mass shootings.
 
Lol the bermuda defense force.

Yes, there is.

I do. It's why I'm able to correct you.

I agree with most of this.

some do, some don't. The simple fact remains the same. No army on earth uses an AR15. They are not weapons of war. The simple fact remains also, even if they were, it's irrelevant.

Explain the practical difference between a civilian AR-15 and a military M16-M4 with how they are used 99% of the time. Be specific.
