You realize that an AR-15 is not a full auto weapon, right?

Same reason people want a pitbull. Need to feel powerful. It's all they got.

And if you need an AR-15, or a pitbull to feel safe, you probably need to move, like, now.


Bad analogy. Many jurisdictions have, in fact, banned pitbulls.


And many don't. How about akitas? Just as dangerous.

Point is, there are people, who for whatever reason, seem to want or need unusually dangerous items or animals and they state it's their American right to have such things, and as many of them as they'd like.

Strange collection tendencies? I can't imagine how someone feels safer with a load of AR-15s in their house. I personally support having a handgun (a trained, properly vetted individual having a handgun). There have been many cases where users saved themselves and/or their families with a gun.


I'm a moderate on gun control, but let's be realistic here. The Left would not stop at AR-15's. Handgun bans are very real; we've already seen them. So to presume that if everyone would only give up their AR-15's, then everything would be settled, is ridiculous.

And I own NO guns, personally.


No way. Banning AR's is a step in the right direction. What's ridiculous is that it's even legal now.

You have to do what you have to do, right? Killing is awful, but in hindsight, I doubt anyone who did it in defense would trade places with the person he/she shot.

But a whole arsenal? Yikes. I have a lot of trouble wrapping my head around the need to stockpile military-grade weapons. May as well live next to a poorly built nuclear reactor.

You don't. You want it. Other people want AR-15s. It's called freedom.


A luxury car owner cant perform MASS murders at the same rate an assault rifle can? If freedom to have something increases the chance of taking the freedom to live for so many innocent citizens, then that freedom need to be reconsidered.
