Re: 0 Days Since Last Shooting: Reset The Calendar Again

Something else about this whole "good guy with a gun" and the idea of arming teachers is even if you overlook all of the actual reasons (many covered in this and other similar threads) why these are myths and horrible ideas is the notion that even with armed and effectively trained teachers, kids would still have to be shot before the teacher springs into action. So even if you think this IS the solution and even if it ACTUALLY WORKS, before Mr. Smith or Ms. Jones can do his or her best Death Wish or Rambo moves little Suzy and little Johnny are gonna have their brains splattered all over the blackboard. Who here will be OK with sacrificing THEIR kid first so we can prove that adding more guns to the mix is the solution to having guns where guns don't belong in the first place?

Oh and if there is a Hell, all of the people who are claiming the teens who are now protesting are just dupes of the fake media and the liberal press can burn there for a thousand eternities, along with the politicians who ALL have blood on their hands.

Full ban on private ownership of anything semi-auto, no need to limit it to assault weapons.

This is where you lose me. I use my autoloader for trap. Most people also use them for waterfowls as well. Semiauto isn't the problem, it's this specific use of a semiauto.

Handguns, for example, have already been upheld by the SCotUS in Heller. You aren't banning semiautos.

Somebody call a waaaaaaahmbulance. You'd adjust, just like people who whine about having to wear seatbelts.

No, I won't have to. Scotus has already ruled on it. Sorry.

If you want change, then start with change that responsible gun-owners will support. Your proposal is a nonstarter even among the liberal and moderate gun-owners.

I agree. Ban schools. If we privatize them we don't have to worry about it.

That is awesome. About time we had some equality going for all the NRA money. Hopefully it has staying power.

Yeah, semi-autos aren't happening. You might get support on something limiting magazine size. I never took more than 5 out with me when deer hunting.

Agreed. I'd be for limiting magazine size. There is no reason a semiauto rifle needs more than 5-10 rounds. A semiauto shotgun already is limited to, at most, 5-7 depending on the manufacturer and style.
 
Re: 0 Days Since Last Shooting: Reset The Calendar Again

I was responding to Fade’s post where he disparaged gun owners.

Wrong! I didn't disparage gun owners, I disparaged a specific type of gun owner - specifically, the gun nut who has virtually no respect for the firearms he (or she?) owns, and continues purchasing far more of them than they really need.
