Gun Control III - the Gunnening

[Wysten]

Abortion discussion continues here.



It's no more or less inherently military than any bolt-action hunting rifle manufactured in the last 100 years or so, virtually all of them are based on the Mauser.

That being said, you can't pull off 12 head shots in 15 seconds with a Remington 700, you can with an AR-15.

Also, did you know that the banana tree isn't actually a tree, but is in fact an extremely large herb?

I thought bannanas were a fungus?

Do you have any idea how fast it is to use the lever?

Yeah, not fast enough to replicate what Martin Bryant did. The first 15 seconds of his rampage were sound recorded. There is no fucking way you can pull that off with a lever gun. Neither is it possible to pull off a Las Vegas shooting with a lever gun.

Nope, an herb, actually a type of berry plant. The banana is technically a berry, and the 'trunk' is just the leaf stems all bundled together.

Bryant was just a damn good shot tbh, for supposedly being retarded he could shoot better than most people I've ever met.

It's not possible to pull of a Nice ramming with a Radio Flyer wagon.

Not even Jerry Miculek can fire 17 rounds of 5.56 from a lever gun in that time frame.

That being said, Australians were aware of this and banned pump-action firearms as well as semi auto firearms. Recently they were debating restricting restricted lever-action firearmstoo.

Say what you want about Australian gun laws, they were designed from the start to close any potential "loophole" before it could be found.

Say what you want about the Germans but they sure do know to wipe an ethic group off the planet.

Ah, yes, because horrific abuses are better if they ensure complete coverage...

Apparently, gun control = Hitler.

Every democracy on the planet other than some states in the US have managed to implement it without devolving into a genocidal rogue state.

The only AR-15's you can get here are Armi Jager .22 versions. I voted in an election last year and I shouted at the Prime Minister in 2016.

I feel pretty safe and free thank you very much

Good thing we are a Republic then.

How clever.

Practically every damn country on earth calls itself a Republic and has a type of republican government. Free democracies and republics do not always overlap. Many monarchies are more free and democratic than many republics.

When most people refer to democracies they refer to Western liberal representative democracies. Japan, US, Britain, France, Germany etc.

Well, no, gun control is a policy, Hitler was a person.

As for the rest, would you like a cookie?

Congratulations to Australia for making laws that are pretty good about taking guns away from ordinary law abiding citizens.

Have these laws had any major effect on their homicide rate? Because last time I checked the jury seamed pretty undecided about that, leaning towards no.

[Grinning Dragon]

Oh shit fam. That Defense Distributed news is big.

I can't name names but I know someone in DD has plans for a working full auto M16 lower that can be 3D printed that they also want to release.

I agree it's a good win for DD. The whole ITAR thing is bullshit imo, it would be nice if parts or most of ITAR would be challenged in the supreme court on constitutional grounds in regards to actions against companies like DD, as we all know treaties cannot supersede enumerated constitutional rights.

So did the Russians.

They drastically cut down the number of Mass shootings and accelerated the decline in homicides.

To be clear, I do think the Australians went overboard. I would not implement gun control laws the same way they did.

That being said they are a very good case study that shows you can drastically reduce the number of mass shootings with gun control.

Australia's NFA objectively did not do those things.

Australia never had all that many mass shootings to begin with, and has been repeatedly noted mass shootings are extremely rare.

I have seen little evidence that shows their gun laws had a major impact on homicides, which have been decreasing in general for developed countries, including Australia and the US, both before and after they implemented their gun ban.

White people of purely Germanic descent.

They were actually unnervingly common for such a small country, and it is highly unlikely that the change in mas shootings after the gun ban was a conicidence, even with the recent mass shooting in Australia this year.

Any number greater than .000 is unnervingly common.
