[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An AR-15 is not automatic, is not a machine gun, and is not an "assault rifle."  It works just like any hunting rifle but fires a smaller bullet than most.  The tragedy in Orlando could have been accomplished with just about any gun, and banning the AR-15 because it looks scary won't change a thing.[/quote]

+1.  This is an attempt to get the low-infos on board to ban a gun that they know nothing about so the gun-grabbers can later make the argument that  all semis are actually just like the banned AK and should be banned as well.[/quote]
OK, so explain how a handgun could do as much damage as an assault rifle in the same amount of time?[/quote]

Jesus Christ.  NOTICE ALL DCUM PEOPLE WHO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT GUNS.  PLEASE READ A WIKI PAGE ABOUT HOW GUNS WORK.

This has been explained numerous times on several threads here.  There is no difference between semi handguns and semi long guns.  The AK looks like a machine gun, but it's actually not.  Large capacity magazines can be bought for either.  Some states restrict the number of rounds in a magazine.  Regardless of this, empty magazines can be quickly swapped out with new, full ones, with a little practice.  A 9mm Beretta handgun can accept a 33 round magazine and then re-loaded an unlimited amount of times.    Also it would probably be more convenient for a shooter to have two semi handguns rather than a bulky AK.  Easier to shoot someone a t short range with a handgun also. (This is why cops carry handguns and not AKs).[/quote]

Whatever blah blah blah who cares!? What we are saying is we don't want any guns that can shoot as many bullets as I just heard in the snap chat video from Pulse club! Watch the video. Bang bang bang it all you can hear one after the other and very close together. We should not have any guns that have this capacity on the streets - it that means getting rid of more than Ak 15s than so be it.  I guess I can also understand the other side of the argument though is they are worried that if law abiding citizens get rid of their assault rifles and the "bad guys" don't get rid of theirs then that's a problem. We would have to figure out how to enforce it and I think pro gun folks are worried there will be an underground black market for these items if they become illegal and they may be right. We need to figure out how to enforce a ban.[/quote]

OK - I'll cut through the "blah blah blah."  PP is saying that even little handguns could go "bang bang bang very close together."  Rifles, AR-15s, handguns, etc.  You would have to ban the vast majority, if not all, effective weapons to ban "bang bang bang" guns.  And there already is an underground black market for guns for those people who can't get them legally.  This is not a hypothetical concern.[/quote]

Handguns have to be reloaded though after less bullets, correct? Ar15s can shoot hundreds of billets without being reloaded, correct?[/quote]
