Yea, seems like a good way to refocus our efforts on the root cause of mental health crisis.

Great idea!!!

The crisis is widespread retail access to assault weapons.

To that point, there's some sweet deals here if you're in the market:

But, yes, the new term (replacing soggy old, failed "gun control") is Massacre Reduction.

“massacre reduction” is a democrat talking point. See also “common sense gun safety laws”


At least have the honesty to call it what you actually want: “gun bans and gun confiscation”


Just be honest about it. Let people decide on the real goal, rather than hiding it in deliberately non-specific euphemisms.

Idiot,

Massacre Reduction is not a Democratic talking point, but it should be. See

I’m noticing a prevailing trend here: gun grabbers and hoplophobes like you always seem to begin their retort with an insult.

Why is that? Why are you incapable of discussion without insulting others? What do you attribute that to? A lack of self control?

Here's another prevailing trend: Mass shooters killing people. Didja hear the latest? 19 children were slaughtered last week, most of them by having their face blown off.

Non-sequitur.

Can you please try to answer the question?

Why does anyone need an AR 15? Why do these bloody slaughters happen mostly in the USA again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again?

There's lots of reasons to own one, but you will likely dismiss them.

+1. I use one for terminating chipmunks and wild boar, both of which wreak havoc on our farmland. The latter also tastes awesome. The other big thing that they can be used for is as an insurance policy against a tyrannical government, i.e. as the founding fathers intended. If just 5% of a 300 million population country owns weaponry, it makes going door to door and sending people the the gulag very costly for a government that gets out of hand. It’s hard to imagine a situation where the US government is going door to door and sending people to the gulag, but who thought it would happen in Germany at the time.

I cannot disagree after 2020...We didn't have quarantine camps for Covid patients like Australia or China. Our government did contemplate all large employer mandates, but never all citizen mandates like some countries in Europe. Our SCOTUS thankfully threw away OSHA mandates. Most of the country didn't go with Covid insanity and mandatory shots. I know this is a wrong audience for this, but imagine living in NYC where your kids are banned from indoor public places, all organized child activities, and where toddlers are still mandated to wear masks when EVERYONE else isn't. I know even on this extremely pro-mandate forum many were hesitating to vaccinate their young kids at first or ever until enough long term data, etc. But if you lived in NYC with 5+ kids coercion would have been very hard to overcome, and ultimately you would not have felt like you had any decision power at all. You simply would not have had so much "luxury" to wait and see like some of you here did when it came to 5+ kids, especially Covid recovered kids.

So the reason the Govt didn't overreach as you state above (like china and europe according to you) was because you had an AR15?

The gulag was in Soviet Russia...

Da, comrade PP obviously was using this metaphorically. Australia of all places had quarantine camps, that didn't look anything like comfy hotels, they were essentially prisons for people who committed no crime. There were and are camps in China now as we speak, what happened there and is still happening would not happen in the USA. Go get a ticket to Shanghai and enjoy, bring your pets too, have fun.

Awwwwww .. you poor thing. You might have to choose a different gun for your hunting and protecting and the earth will spin on.

DP

You need an appropriate tool for hunting. You can use a screwdriver to hammer nails into a piece of wood, but its not going to do it well.

There are far more "deadly" rifles for hunting, as the AR15 shoots a relatively small bullet at a high velocity. You could pick a much heavier/more destructive round, but its going to destroy more of the meat you want to eat (and you don't want to "explode" the animal) and with a louder sound is more likely to scare off game should you miss. Likewise the larger recoil makes a follow up shot more difficult, because if you wound the animal, you want to end its suffering as soon as possible.

You may be unaware that a traditional hunting rifle is no different than a "sniper rifle". Indeed several currently military sniper rifles are based off civilian hunting rifles.

There are plenty of people who do believe that the high ownership rate of firearms acts as an effective deterrent to government overreach. We haven't seen any sort of pushback since the 40's.

If you think your gun can out gun the US miliary you have no idea what they spend a DAY on defense weaponry.
May the odds be ever in your favor Tribute.

I'm the one with the dementia-stricken parent. I am absolutely for gun control. The idea that someone needs an assault rifle for massacring chipmunks is laughable. And if I'm wrong about that, then only allow people who can demonstrate a valid need due to feral hogs or whatever to purchase those kinds of weapons. Just because John needs an AR to protect his farm from wild animals doesn't mean Tony needs one in the Boston suburbs.

NY state had a bill proposal that would give the state the right to isolate people into quarantine facilities if they consider them to be "danger to public health", no criteria was stated, it was pretty much up to whatever government decides. Think of it what you want. Logically speaking it's much more difficult for the government to engage army vs. police and start rounding up masses of citizens who are armed vs. those unarmed if such government's goal isn't to exterminate masses of citizens. All of this is hypothetical, but it gives people comfort knowing that they aren't an easy target to be subjugated by anyone bearing arms.

Bullsh**. Nobody hunts (anything other than humans) with an AR-15. You'd look like a complete dickh**d out in the woods with one of those.

This point seems to get missed far too much. We are more willing to regulate personal freedoms that only affect individuals and families on the basis of others' morality (e.g. whether I have certain medical procedures, whether my neighbor marries his boyfriend...) than we are to regulate personal freedoms that are potentially harmful. Even if your gun never shoots me, forcing me to go into public spaces with open carry has a measurable impact on my levels of physical stress.

You could pick a much heavier/more destructive round, but its going to destroy more of the meat you want to eat (and you don't want to "explode" the animal) and with a louder sound is more likely to scare off game should you miss. Likewise the larger recoil makes a follow up shot more difficult, because if you wound the animal, you want to end its suffering as soon as possible.

You may be unaware that a traditional hunting rifle is no different than a "sniper rifle". Indeed several currently military sniper rifles are based off civilian hunting rifles.

Bullsh**. Nobody hunts (anything other than humans) with an AR-15. You'd look like a complete dickh**d out in the woods with one of those.

Disagree, its not uncommon to see them for feral hogs. .223 is a good enough round for them. Plus you typically find them in large groups, so if you're trying to control the population, being able to shoot 30 rounds to take several hogs in quick succession is quite useful. They can travel in packs of up to 50-60 hogs.

If you live in the southern portion of the country, they can be a large problem.

Yea, seems like a good way to refocus our efforts on the root cause of mental health crisis.

Great idea!!!

? "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:

But, yes, the new term (replacing soggy old, failed "gun control") is Massacre Reduction.

“massacre reduction” is a democrat talking point. See also “common sense gun safety laws”


At least have the honesty to call it what you actually want: “gun bans and gun confiscation”


Just be honest about it. Let people decide on the real goal, rather than hiding it in deliberately non-specific euphemisms.

Idiot,

Massacre Reduction is not a Democratic talking point, but it should be. See

I’m noticing a prevailing trend here: gun grabbers and hoplophobes like you always seem to begin their retort with an insult.

Why is that? Why are you incapable of discussion without insulting others? What do you attribute that to? A lack of self control?

Here's another prevailing trend: Mass shooters killing people. Didja hear the latest? 19 children were slaughtered last week, most of them by having their face blown off.

Non-sequitur.

Can you please try to answer the question?

Why does anyone need an AR 15? Why do these bloody slaughters happen mostly in the USA again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again?

There's lots of reasons to own one, but you will likely dismiss them.

+1. I use one for terminating chipmunks and wild boar, both of which wreak havoc on our farmland. The latter also tastes awesome. The other big thing that they can be used for is as an insurance policy against a tyrannical government, i.e. as the founding fathers intended. If just 5% of a 300 million population country owns weaponry, it makes going door to door and sending people the the gulag very costly for a government that gets out of hand. It’s hard to imagine a situation where the US government is going door to door and sending people to the gulag, but who thought it would happen in Germany at the time.

Awwwwww .. you poor thing. You might have to choose a different gun for your hunting and protecting and the earth will spin on.

oh yeah, I forgot about the feral hog problem. The meme used to be "30-50 feral hogs." And now it's 50-60!

Somehow I think we can find another way to dispatch a bunch of hogs than letting everyone in America have AR-15s.
