Gun ban list

To me it would be, and I love my guns, but we got to start somewhere. There are a lot of other areas that need addressing also, mental illness and helping those in need would be another, Violence on TV and some of these video games our kids play everyday, another ....

Are you kidding? That was almost verbatim what is being gargled on mainstream news.

You are talking about banning weapons that will have no impact on crazy crimes. In reality, mass killings are at an all time low in the US and statically these school shootings DON'T happen.

Airplanes flew into the towers and everyone quit flying, or a plane crashes and everyone freaks out, but STATISTICALLY it doesn't even happen, so why does it warrant such drastic reactions mandating government intervention? TSA is a joke, and a massive drain on our tax dollars for absolutely no gain.

The media has played your emotions and your conscience like a flute.

Lets get this clear, what happened to those children is absolutely devastating, gut wrenching and sickening to me as a parent. But, I keep it in perspective and don't let a tragedy that is being glamorized by the media shape my decisions. It has to be kept in perspective.

Further, before TV and Video Games the world was just as messed up, if not more. Stop reaching for something to blame and think a little deeper. People blame those things because it is easy. Romans were sick people, I'm guessing video games were the cause? Medieval times were sick, musta been TV... I guess all the freedom the children in the Middle East have to play MA video games is what we should blame for their behavior?

were already banned in Connecticut.....didn't seem to help did it? How about cutting out "gun-free" zones 'cause that's where most all of the horrific shootings occur. In other words, put one or more good guys in these zones with guns. Ever hear of a mass shooting at a gun range? Just ain't gonna happen!

I was watching an interview the other night of a teacher at the school who was huddled in her room with her class. She said the shooting continued for 20 MINUTES! Many people could be killed by a lunatic in 20 minutes with a bolt action gun if they had no way to defend themselves. He picked the school and class on purpose and it was because he knew they could not fight back.

Lets start by taking away the guns of his body guards and see how safe he feels. Lets see how long a gun ban would last when he can't be protected from the criminal who bought the illegal gun on the streets. Criminals in prison can't have knifes or drugs but they still get them.

No more than taking guns away from law abiding citizens. If guns were banned then why would law enforcement need guns. Ok I'll go ahead an answer this for you because the CRIMINALS would still have their guns.

So how would a ban on assault weapons be an act of taking your guns away? It is a ban on buying assault weapons, the government is not coming to your home to take away your guns that you own. That won't happen, it would take both Congress and the Senate to amend the constitution to have that done. I don't see it happening. Hey, if you want an assault weapon go by one now, before a ban, if a ban happens. No one stopping you now.

My point is, to take away our guns, it would literally take the act of Congress and the Senate to do so, personally, I don't see it happening.

[SULPHITE]

Try and find them...you know what a gateway drug is right...this is potentially a gateway to banning non "assault weapons"...

If you don't know the ar in ar15 stands for "armalite rifle" not "assault rifle" ****ing media

Anything's possible, but I think those that would vote for such a thing would be looking for another job when the american people vote them out.

I'm just curious of how many of ya'll had the government come in and take their guns away from them when the last ban was in effect?

[Msucowpoke51]

Stricter screening for purchasing of Guns and "assault rifles" that's my compromise if they don't like it, well I'm from the country and I'm hard headed, it's the way of my people, and its against my religion. If others can use these excuses and be untouchable so can I haha

Wag,
Quit drinking the kool aid. One ban on anything is only a stepping stone for the next thing they want to ban. Wake up.

So how many guns did the government take away from you on the last ban, and what other weapon did they ban after that ban? Not saying it couldn't happen just don't think it will? I'll be waiting for your answer.

[SULPHITE]

They think its a one stop solution for an issue beyond any human control. Evil or whatever you want to call it will find a way regardless of a ban on hi cap mags or a "named" weapons group...he'll we helped funnel hundreds and hundreds of "assault weapons" to Mexico...lmao isn't that ironic. Eric holder is going to tell me what I can't have when he has blood on his hands...yeah I trust the GOV....that blew over didn't it? Bet this wont.

This is a whole new ball game wag...times have changed the media will not stop and the dense turds will believe everything the read/hear from the media. So the potential for more to develop this time is greater than ever...again how is the koolaid

You are right on with the media, thank goodness that we do have the constitution, the 2nd amendment and unless there is an act of Congress and the Senate, they can not take our guns....PERIOD! The media can't take our guns away, they can influence, and they are good at that, but it's our Congress and Senate that have to vote to take away our guns away, and I don't see that happening.
