[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Folks: "Gun Control" is a dead term. It died at Sandy Hook. The new term is[b] Massacre Reduction.[/b] Pass it on.[/quote] Yea, seems like a good way to refocus our efforts on the root cause of mental health crisis. Great idea!!![/quote] ? "Mental health crisis" is a Republican talking point. See also: "Criminals." The crisis is [b]widespread retail access to assault weapons[/b]. 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[b] Massacre Reduction. [/b][/quote] “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. [/quote] Idiot, [b]Massacre Reduction[/b] is not a Democratic talking point, but it should be. See[/quote] 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? [/quote] Here's another prevailing trend: Mass shooters killing people. Didja hear the latest? :D 19 children were slaughtered last week, most of them by having their face blown off. [/quote] Non-sequitur. Can you please try to answer the question?[/quote] 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? [/quote] There's lots of reasons to own one, but you will likely dismiss them.[/quote] +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. [/quote] 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. [/quote] 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? [/quote] DP 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. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Athens_(1946)[/quote]
