@Kwek00 because she's a hillbilly, don't know nothin bout nothin.

@Casun06 Do you kiss your mom with that mouth?

Bingo!!!@Casun06

@Thevy29 Very fine point.

@Casun06 I own the gun. Libs own guns too. Has your mind been blown yet? You think about that next time you assume your side would win a war.

Yes. Thank you!!!@Easygoing1

@PTCdresser57 - honestly, rifles such as the AR-15 are excellent home defense firearms. And people do use them to hunt when configured in the proper caliber.

@BizSuitStacy Well. I am glad to live in a place where people don't feel the need to have an AR-15 for home defense.

Yes you can and people do @PTCdresser57

@SW-User I'm saying the solution is multifaceted. It may require banning assault rifles.

@Sarin [quote]Assault rifle: a rapid-fire, magazine-fed automatic rifle designed for infantry use[/quote] um, no - not rapid-fire. Select fire. An assault rifle is a light weight, mid caliber rifle with select fire capabilities. Select fire = capable of fully automatic fire and/or 3 round bursts. True assault rifles manufactured after May 1986 are banned from civilian ownership. Those manufactured prior to May 1986 are heavily regulated, require licensing from BATFE, intense background checks, registration - AND will set you back a minimum of $25K. Are you intentionally trying to mislead people?

@StevexStephie - they're already banned if manufactured after 1986, and heavily regulated if manufactured prior. A Viet Nam era M-16 will set you back a minimum of $25K. Hardly anyone owns these things legally. Criminals, on the other hand...who knows how many they may have.
