[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The people who keep passing laws and trying to ban guns don't seem to know much about the things they are trying to ban.  I love the people who say the AR in AR-15 stands for "Assault Rifle" (news flash, it stands for Armalite Rifle as in the company that developed it in the 50's) MD bans the M1-A1 in 308 but not the SCAR-20 in 308?  The SCAR-20 is a modern battle rifle, the M1-A1 was used in Korea and Viet Nam as the M-14.  [/quote]

And none of them belong in the home. They are weapons of war, came as tanks and hydrogen bombs.[/quote]

Right, because there is zero difference between a gun and a nuclear bomb.  :roll:

Seriously, come up with some new schtick, because I can’t even…..[/quote]

Come back when you shoot your kid coming in late.

That's one thing that will never happen in my house.[/quote]

Yes, because you will be tied up at gun point while your house is being robbed. Shoot your kid - what a dbag you are. Great argument argument. I’m getting my CCW after reading your post. [/quote]

Spite gun purchases. Do you always buy deadly weapons when you get emotional?

Reminds me of when gun owners go on a shopping spree right after a mass shooting. How many guns were sold after Sandy Hook or Vegas?

It is fascinating, this legend in their own mind thinking. They fancy themselves being good guys with a gun. (Spoiler: They are not).[/quote]

I’m definitely not a legend in my own mind. I’m 5’3” and weigh 118 lbs and I don’t want to be raped, strangled or maybe beaten to death by a man who could be twice my size and 3 or 4 times stronger than me. I don’t “[i]fancy myself[/i]” being able to physically resist or stop someone so much larger and stronger than me.

Serious question (assuming you’re also female) - do you think you could stop a man from attacking you? I can’t. If you think you can, what makes you believe that? Why are you so much more capable than I am? [/quote]

And yet you think you will have time and presence of mind to pull out your gun and shoot him. Good luck with that.[/quote]

It's amazing how many Americans think they can become professional gunslingers. Are they practicing at the level that Olympic shooters do? But even more than that, are they practicing being in all sorts of unexpected situations so that they are trained well enough to react quickly and accurately to a sudden attack? Heck, even professional police and soldiers have trouble hitting the right perpetrator in a dangerous situation. Why do weekend warriors think they will be able to prevent an attack better than trained police? [/quote]

Have ya'll been to a gun range lately? I expected it to be old white guys. Boy was I wroing.  It was a cross section of America. There were groups of African American younger males buying guns and also using the range. There were old white couples using the range. There were women using the range. There were Hispanic men using the range. It was truly a cross section of America.[/quote]
