Me at the shooting range with my AR15M4. Killed no one and perfectly legal.

No, target shooting is just damn fun.

Again, get back on the topic.

Target shooting, fucking duh.

Also, get the fuck back on topic; if you want to talk about guns, go to the gun thread.


He can't do that. His arguments will be shot down again.

If guns didn't exist, we would just use swords and crossbows. You know, like we did for those other thousands if years.

Here's a picture of me firing a Short Magazine Lee Enfield #4 rifle last year, live, on a British Army range.

Fortunately I didn't hit anyone - thus no injury or death occurred.

I have a feeling that Brown would be at LEAST missing an arm or a leg. The cop felt the need deadly force was warranted, so regardless of being racist or not, some form of weapon that had deadly effects would have been used.

I'm more interested in how they will improve relations between the cops and the people of Ferguson. The fact that the rioting occurred points to a problem.

The protests I understand and support. The rioting and looting were uncalled for and counter-productive.

Oh I agree, but it still points to a problem. Rioting should never happen. It isn't an answer, makes people question the side the rioters are supporting, and in general only causes harm.

I use my guns to shoot the tops off of bottles because I don't own a bottle opener. I also use it to communicate with my neighbor in morse code and by shooting messages into his door.

Still, using chemical weapons to solve the rioting is just disgusting.

Non-lethal is always preferable. I can understand a police presence, But I wish they would focus on the looters.

This right here is flamebait. I understand that this is an emotional topic but refrain from baiting other players. You appear to be new so I'll let you off with an unofficial warning, I suggest you take some time to cool off and read the site rules.
