FTGs.
I only read the headline. -
So your FOR murder and violence?

And they're right. There is literally no point in civilians having high capacity magazines. They serve no purpose

We should be able to own any gun we want to. Full auto. Infrared. High capacity. Fuck off.dhdawg said:And they're right. There is literally no point in civilians having high capacity magazines. They serve no purpose

Maybe you're right, maybe I'm right. I like you man (75k), but why does it matter if you die by the federal gun while holding a fully auto rifle versus holding a shotgun. Unless you have a nuke you're pretty much fucked.
Better to accumulate enough capital to get the government on your side. It's the usual method after all. -
I you want a handgun to protect yourself fine, I'm a believer in the constitution and respect the 2nd amendment. When was the last time a high capacity magazine was used in any way other than to commit mass murder? (excluding shooting contests, at ranges, etc.)PurpleJ said:

Don't be so quick to dismiss all legal use of full capacity magazines as an "etc.". You're putting the 0.001% case a head of the 99.999% of the rest of the time.dhdawg said:

And what % of that legal purpose can you not get from a handgun?GrundleStiltzkin said:

The only thing that stops a dictator from seizing power in this country, or some asshole official/cop from going way too far, is the the 2nd Amendment. I'll take thousands of dead every year in gang and domestic violence, over millions to billions dead in inevitable purges, because the balance in power between citizens/military is annihilated. -
@dhdawg
Most murders are committed by handgun, to refute your point. Banning "assault style" weapons that are semi auto with 30 round clips will solve nothing (they are simply bigger pistols that hold a few more rounds - most pistols hold around 17).

But that isn't the point anyways. We should be able to own any gun we want to protect ourselves from a tyrannical government or foreign invader, if and when that day comes again. It has nothing to do with legislating safety.
And some food for thought, most illegal weapons tend to come from nations like Russia where guns have been made very hard to come by. The black market would simply take care of any demand deemed illegal by gun control laws. -
People are going to have a much tougher time shooting up a church with handguns than with high capacity magazines.
If you want to make the tyrannical government argument I can see that and accept it as a difference in opinion, I just don't see how that can happen in a country so big and with so much individual wealth -
Hitler and I shared a good laugh over this post. George Washington had a laugh, too.dhdawg said:People are going to have a much tougher time shooting up a church with handguns than with high capacity magazines.

Yeah because rednecks with no formal training are a huge threat to the strongest military on the planet.priapism said:

I think you might be surprised at how many members of the military would flatly refuse to do active battle with US citizens. The military respects the constitution and citizens more than the jack booted thugs in police ninja suits do.UWhuskytskeet said:

I always find it shocking how many people just assume all or even the majority of the military members will just blindly follow orders in that kind of situation.Swaye said:

Better to accumulate enough capital to get the government on your side. It's the usual method after all. -

And there's the difference between existential and non-existential threats.

So how many of you fucks, pimpin the NRA, actually own a fully automatic assault weapon with high capacity magazines.
I doubt any one of you do. But please do carry on. -
If the government wants to take control of the country by force, some assault rifles and high capacity mags won't do much against tanks and planes.priapism said:

I totally respect the 2nd amendment, but to cling to guns as a method of limiting control of the government is FS. -
Fuck off. Everybody know why CAIR wants to seize guns.
