You're going to post ignorant crap that makes intelligent, responsible gun owners look bad?

And there's that stupid and idiotic notion once again that somehow, gun control advocates are demanding a ban on all guns. Sheesh.

In case you hadn't noticed, this thread happens to be about guns being banned... Also, Sen Feinstein's proposal does call for guns being banned.
In addition, there have been people advocating banning all guns in this thread.

Not nessesarily infallible, but a hell of a lot better than John P. Civilian in most if not all cases. That is rather the point of them, yes.
Most people aren't. Myself included.
But those who are? That's why we have Class III Licenses. So those who are not can get autos
Hey, me too, what a coincidence.
Are you ex-Military/Law Enforcement? If not, then you don't. And you don't have superiors and hundreds of armed people around you constantly to enforce those rule.
Like me.
No, not like you. You don't need an automatic weapon, and if you happen to be insane, then the harm outweighs the negligable benefit
So we have to punish the majority for the few people who are stupid, then? Everyone needs to suffer?
The needs of the potential victims of gun violence outweigh the wants of a few people, yes. Though I wouldn't call not being allowed to own an automatic weapon suffering in any sense of the word.
You don't have the authority or knowledge of me to say that. You know nothing about me.
No, I don't know anything about you. Which means I must consider the possibility that you are a crazy wacko. Oh, and assuming that everyone in the US is identical to yourself is a fallacy, by the by
The police will not instantly show up and put their life on the line the second I need them too. They aren't magic, they aren't angels, and they aren't always self-sacrificing or even always great shots. I can't count on police, though I do respect them and recognize them as necessary.
Not always, no. But the chances of you actually needing them too? Slim to none. Even less if people are not walking around with automatic weapons. And in the case of needing to? I hardly think you'd need an automatic.
This is also true.
I disagree, I disagree a lot.
The only thing you need an automatic weapon for is suppressing fire. That's something only the military and law enforcement needs. All you need is a decent pistol to protect yourself from attack by most if not all criminals.
"durr u think ur an akshun heroo lol"
Then stop acting like you do, and get a grip on reality.
Jesus Christ, all of this argument for you to end up AGREEING with me? holy shit
I never said unqualified people should be able to own weapons. I argue AGAINST that all the time.
Well, why didn't you say so? Seemed to me you were arguing for any Tom, Dick or Harry being allowed to own an M249 because teh ebil gubernments. But, if we agree that regulation is required, and that the current regulation of automatic weapons is sufficent, then your arguement is rather moot...

Saying "Gun Ban" is far too vague. It could either mean repealing the 2nd Amendment or simply banning specific type of firearms, in this case the assault-weapon happens to be a popular target. As for Feinstein's proposal, it's to reinstate a new assault-weapons ban and improve on removing potential loopholes for gun makers to exploit that was present in the 1994 FAWB. Either way, this isn't in direct violation of the 2nd Amendment, and certainly, all notions that Obama wants to take people's guns away is very asinine. But don't expect to convince gun nuts otherwise.

And if not, would that mean Conservatives may have to grudge once more to blame Bush again? Cause that's what happened the last time when one Conservative Supreme Court judge ruled in favor of Obamacare.

It does matter. Weapons are design to kill, destroy life! Cars are not designed as weapons, they are designed to take you from point A to point B, period! Stop trying to compare apples to oranges. I've seen that rhetoric crap far too many times.

With the precedent of the '94 AWB, I think this legislation would be ruled constitutional, though the bill's effective banning of semi-auto handguns would get a long look in light of SCOTUS's recent rulings.
by Caninope » Wed Jan 30, 2013 4:12 pm
so no surprise there, just as they ruled in 2008 that the 2nd Amendment meant individual rights, instead of rights towards militia.
