Well not one of them saved a life yesterday and you won't convince me that a West Texas Walmart didn't have at least a couple of armed men in it.


Because you're overly emotional, not rational.

90% of the people in that Walmart probably had no idea where the shooting was coming from.

I asked a question earlier that went unanswered, are we 100% positive people were carrying? Spare me the “It’s Texas” BS. Has it been confirmed that many had a gun on them?

So without knowing for sure there were any CC citizens in Walmart yesterday, you want to take a shot at our rights to obtain a conceal carry license instead of all the other issues that led up to this tragedy. fantastic

No. He's on some emotional rant and creating a myth to justify it.

There are no loopholes if you own a fully function military weapon because a fully functional M16, for example, would have select-fire that includes full auto.


so the difference between an AR15 and an M16 is that the AR doesnt have a full auto switch? would that be the distinction on what a "military grade" weapon would be? full auto?

im assuming that would be difficult to mod?

So is killing people.

Do you think someone planning one of these will stop in the middle of sawing off his barrels and say..."I shouldn't saw the barrels off. That is illegal"

Then perhaps people could stop trying to solve the problem by banning guns. That is obviously not an option.

If you can accept that reality, then maybe it is possible to move forward.

What else can we try?


The UK banned guns after a bunch of children were shot to death at a school. Meanwhile, we've had dozens of school shootings since and nothing has happened.

I don’t believe that for a minute. Our Admin staff stays on top of these things and those deserving of a ban, for the most part get them. What he said was wrong, but don’t be dramatic, it’s the Internet

Have we officially gone from assuming the perpetrator is an isis terrorist in incidents like this to assuming it’s a loser, early 20’s alt-right White kid emboldened by a combo of Trump rhetoric, 4chan and 8chan hate speech, Pepe memes, incel ideology, and basic internet garbage?

Love the “send them all back, ban all Muslims” responses that used to immediately pop up. “Religion of peace my arse. Ban all mosques.” Good times. Nary a mention of First amendment constitutional protections.

For some reason it’s so different now. “We have to be cautious. Can’t act hastily.” “Well this is a lone wolf. Not representative of an entire group.” “Second amendment bro. Go frick yourself libtard for trying to politicize this. Probably a false flag.”

Its an impressive exercise in hypocrisy from such a wide swath of people

Australia passed strict laws after a restaurant shooting in the 90's.

You can modify almost anything if you know what you're doing.

What do you think about this firearm?



Or this?



Which one is the most dangerous?

Sao said all republicans should be shot.

Here was the actual quote:

You REDneck voters should all be vetted and shot. Go back to Nova Scotia.

Not the only difference but it is one.

Not the only distinction. The DoD has a certain standard that a weapon must meet before our military uses it. WalMart has no distinction on the PoS they are selling you over the counter for $500.

There are no legal "mods" and if you do so it is a felony.
