Yeah, hate to, but he's right.
First it was anything that fires more than one bullet per trigger pull.
Then it was anything semiautomatic.

This is the slippery slope, man.
Keep going, and you'll have harsh language outlawed.

And let's not forget, no guns during 9-11, no guns in Oklahoma City, etc.

I totally understand your point, but what IS your point?
You seem to change it a lot.

The distance one can be with this (even not militarily trained) combined with the power of the round, you can pin people down in certain settings that you could kill 10+ people. Not all within 10seconds, but you definitely could kill 10+ people in a minute.

This is a type of scenario most normal people would freeze in. Being shot from a person you cannot see and you do not know exactly where they are. A minute in this scenario would go by fast for the shooter and extremely slow for every victim trapped.

Also, there are many places that 10mins is more than enough time to shoot people and bug out before any law enforcement shows up.


Perhaps you are all forgetting Charles Whitman? Military trained yes, but he wasn't using the best of equipment either.

I asked you where the problems were...sources, methodology, what? You said you didn't have time to look at it and you never refuted anything in the study with anything other than your own personal opinion.

Still doesn't tell us what arms the Constitution says we can have. This is a personal attack...not a refutation of anything.

What I find the most surprising though is your complete narcissism. Every argument you have made, you were crushed in the same realm so you abscond to the next realm. We are now in the realm of constitutional law which you know little to nothing about which is unsurprising for a fast food cook at McDonalds. Did you ever get the promotion to cashier by the way? I really hope so
No one has crushed anything, lol. If anything we've come to understand that the Constitutional argument can support your position as well as mine...and is why I stated the courts need to clarify it, because the Constitution doesn't.

Second, all I expect from you is to either concede or refute it logically. You ignoring it and then telling me to reread a giant article isn't a basis for an argument while you slink away to another poorly and hastily formed argument based on your opinion.
It was a real scientific study. You said it was hogwash and sounded funny...I asked you where the problems were. Statistics, methodology...what? That was a real scientific study done by the University of Sydney...not some off-the-cuff news story from the Examiner.

Because you'd rather argue opinion. You don't have time to learn anything...and I'll tell you something. You CAN'T refute that study with anything other than opinion. You're not capable of it. Val should probably take a look at it...we might be able to get some intelligent discourse on the subject then.

How did your head get so big to the point where you actually believe this? You can't just declare it to be so. This highlights your complete ignorance on the subject matter, and since you clearly unable to contribute anything of intellectual worth to this subject, I ask again for the chimpanzee behind humerox to stop posting.
Believe what? That the Constitution isn't clear in meaning as applied to our modern society and we constantly have to try to interpret it to fit our changing world?

Might interest you to know that I'm a volunteer with AmeriCorps, I'm an old fart that doesn't have to work anymore, and that I'm a decorated vet.

I don't usually slip up and let that much personal history escape onto these boards...but whatever. I'm proud of me...and I actually do advocate. You know...do silly things like call congressman and write them nice little letters and such.

You seem to have become very angry lately.

or in internetese...

umad.

No...I said a long time ago if you have to manually cock a bolt or pull back a hammer to fire individual rounds it's fine.

The weapon can look as scary as it wants to. I don't care, lol.

Ah, so I can keep this that I have coming in a few months then under your laws.

But seeing what kind of half-assed laws we've had in the past and the unwillingness to enforce them...I'd say that you may be right.

Which is unfortunate, because it won't work and we'll all be talking about how it never worked the NEXT mass murder around.

Sad.

If it fits what i want have at it. I didn't even really look at it, lol.

Might even discourage a few gang-bangers trying to home invade.

I already did, though.

I shut down your argument about reducing only some types of murder at the expense of having more overall violence.

Source please? (To your original post, so I can look over replies.) The forum search doesn't provide exact pages, unless I'm using the wrong settings.

I already explained that the only legal way to make "arms" mean something other than "arms" is via ratification.
