Wait, you too?

Remember, this is about gun ownership. Whether I can own a stripped down shell of a fighter jet to proudly keep on my front lawn is irrelevant. Are you seriously, really, honestly trying to tell me that it's perfectly legal for a private citizen to own and operate an operational and armed strike fighter?

Is this really, truly, the proposition you're trying to sell me on? Do you think I'm that fucking stupid?

Or are you just incapable of remaining on topic?

Pathetic.


So its agreed, you are incapable of supporting your claim.
What would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive? Or if during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? The Organs would quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!

Oh thank god, you were the same guy I was originally replying to earlier. You weren't memorable enough to recall your name. That's a relief. For a moment I thought there were two of you running around.

An armed fighter jet CANNOT be legally owned by a felon, if you think otherwise then just leave.

His interpretation of the GCA of 1968 is incorrect.

Let's check an F-16's weaponry, eh? Typically it carries either ATG or ATA missiles, which are definitely verboten, along with the rockets it carries. And unless the M61 Vulcan has been in civilian hands since before 1981, you're fucked with that too.

Oh for fuck's sake. An M61 Vulcan is a sustained fire gattling gun. Automated machine guns that operate by a powered crank are extraordinarily illegal

In fact I have not. I don't know the first thing about civilian ownership of military weaponry like the Vulcan cannon or missiles mentioned. That's why I have been asking you to support your own arguments and explain to me what the fuck you're saying. You say I could, if I was rich enough and not a felon, buy a fully equipped F-16 fighter jet. Cool. That's awesome. But I'm not really inclined to take your word for it, so maybe you explain how you came to this conclusion?
