We had an assualt weapon ban and a high capacity magazines ban and it was fine. It was not struck down....pathetically it expired. It will be even more pathetic if we do not reinstate it. |
Recent bans have been ruled unconstitutional. It's highly likely that the original ban was also unconstitutional given recent court outcome. So again, you have the burden of proof. |
? "Mental health crisis" is a Republican talking point. See also: "Criminals." The crisis is widespread retail access to assault weapons. To that point, there's some sweet deals here if you're in the market: https://www.sportsmansoutdoorsuperstore.com/category.cfm/sportsman/ar-15-rifles But, yes, the new term (replacing soggy old, failed "gun control") is Massacre Reduction. |
Scotus can be better insulated from the nra or daniel defense or whoever you are. The constitution is ours and so are the amendments. |
In your mind, does only the US have mental health issues? |
Recent bans have been ruled unconstitutional pending appeal. It's likely scotus will rule on this again. It's highly likely that the original ban was also unconstitutional given recent court outcome. So again, you have the burden of proof. |
Well, tt's that terrible trifecta of "mental health issues" and "criminals" and "propped-open doors." It is not the ease of purchase of assault weapons. p.s.

2A definitely says "well regulated militia" If SCOTUS isn't specifically addressing that then SCOTUS would be behaving unconstitutionally and shouldn't be allowed to overturn regulation. |
Proof? Dear mass-shooting fan: I can think of 21 (freshly dead) Exhibit A's. |
You can't be this stupid, but yet you are. The US has one of the highest rates of depression in the world, especially depression experienced by men. We also have one of the worst mental health care systems in terms of rates of intervention. The quality of care is the best in the world, but it's just not well utilized. |
Proof? Dear mass-shooting fan: I can think of 21 (freshly dead) Exhibit A's. Horrific crimes may be proof of need for weapons ban, but not such a ban is constitutional. Try again . Use your brain. |
That clause does not allow a ban on so-called assault weapons. |
Horrific crimes may be proof of need for weapons ban, but not such a ban is constitutional. Try again . Use your brain. Another proud voice from the Pro-Massacre Community. Pedants welcomed! |
Scotus? One scotus rules a right is constitutional and the next one strips it away. Scotus is political and the rulings will change according to who is on the court. |
