ban on assault weapons and 10 round clip limit

[Lexical]

Grrrr..... hit enter too soon. The quote was in reference to Meyer v. Nebraska (1923) where the Court added "liberty" to the Due Process Clause.

Regardless how I feel, you will have to understand that the assault rifle ban will be met with very heavy resistance and if you truly believe in democracy then you need to give up on that stance and try to put stronger regulation on such weapons.

I've already stated I'd be happy with a strict system over an outright ban...

Photo Id's
Yearly Registration and Fees
Insurance Requirement
Storage Requirements
Firearms Safety Course
Improved Federal Background Checks
Ammunition Legislation
Clean Police Record Requirement

just a few things to start off with....

Then why do you fruitlessly try to argue for a ban?

"Fruitlessly" remains to be seen.

You have yet to make a strong case for it despite splurging all over these forums so fruitlessly is the best word to describe your stance in my opinion.

No...you have it backwards. No one has made a strong case for assault-style weapons.

Why assault rifles and not handguns? If you think banning a gun will reduce gun violence, then why not ban the type of gun used in the vast majority of gun crimes?

It has been shown via statistics and posted that banning assault weapons leads to increased amounts/rates of violent crimes. It has been shown to be one of the most protected rights in the bill of rights, and it can be easily determined that having an assault-style weapon is very useful for home defense.

Your arguments on the other hand have been scare tactics, ad hominem attacks, skewed/manipulated statistics, anecdotal evidence, and faulty logic. Every bit of evidence/argument you have made was either debunked with a little additional reading or proven to be a fallacy. It isn't your fault though. Personally, I blame the mainstream news sources that feed the populace the idea that these styles of arguments are actually good. I wouldn't be surprised if congress turned into something out of a jersey shore episode.

assault-style is fucking stupid and everyone that keeps using it is fucking stupid.

The top gun and the bottom gun are in the same "assault" category in terms of destruction.
