People who want them will still get them, it will only make them harder to legislate, and less safe. I assure you that if they were made illegal tomorrow, I wouldn't give up my arsenal. |

i think one of the moderators should continue this discussion in another forum. | I think it is ridiculous they sell guns with such destructive capability such as a semi automatic. But I put none of the blame on the gun company, they cannot be responsible for the idiots that handle their guns... Its a ridiculous argument. | Wait a minute. I think you mean fully automatic (which they don't sell), you can not possibly mean semi-automatic. Do you know what a semi automatic is? | You are right I have no idea what the hell a semi-automatic or even a automatic at that even is. Like I have said, I have never held a gun in my life.

Like I have said, I have never held a gun in my life. | A semi-automatic is a gun that reloads it self, but it is still a single fire weapon. It fires one bullet each time you pull the trigger. This is the sort of gun every cop carries. 90% of all hunting weapons are semi-automatic, 98% of all hand guns are semi-automatic. A fully automatic weapon is an 'assault weapon' or a 'machine gun', you pull the trigger, and bullets will keep firing until you let go. | |

I'm surprised I have never held a gun before, Nebraska is big on hunting.

Level up: 4%, 38 Points needed | | Hahaha aMFLIBERAL here is a math problem for you....
what do you call it when 12% of a population causes 60% of the crime in a country?
Answer : you dont talk about it because it might hurt someone's feelings.
P.S. It's probably really fucking easy not to be racist when you are 100 miles from the nearest black person. | |
