McVeigh did a lot worse with fertilizer. 9/11? Planes. An AR-15 is a small caliber weapon that looks scary to bed wetting liberals. He could have done the same thing or worse with 3 or 4 glocks that were already loaded. So ban pistols now?




I know right. Bunch of pussy liberals thinking an AR-15 could do any damage. Its just a "scary" looking weapon. Don't let the main stream media lie to you. The fake news doesn't want to talk about all the mass murders that occur on a near monthly basis people by fertilizer and airplanes. Also the reason he didn't have 3 or 4 glocks is because it is our right to make,sell, and buy a AR-15. Why should the government tell me I need to now buy 3-5 glocks when just one AR-15 will do exactly what it is needs to do. Thats what it is engineered to do.

Because criminals are known to follow laws right? This is why this reasoning doesn’t work.

And btw, most transactions at gun shows are made by licensed FFL dealers. There are private collections sales that happen, but those can happen anywhere/anytime, not just at gun shows.

There is absolutely nothing different between an AR15 and most deer rifles other than magazine capacity. Actually, most deer hunting rifles are far more powerful. It's illegal to hunt with 5.56 in many states due to lack of lethality. So are you arguing that we should limit magazine capacity? Otherwise it doesn't make any sense.

I think the Sandy Hook dude had problems beyond taking some anti-depressants.

You're probably right. Hell, some glocks hold 15+ rounds. 2 pistols are as lethal as 1 ar.

Sounds like you should focus your arguments towards banning handguns.

You know, seeing how rifles account for less than 500 deaths a year.


And handguns account for 6000-7000.

How do you know the depth of my mental illness and his? How is the government capable of making that decision? Where do you draw the line?

Another interesting fact...

There have literally been twice as many homicides a year (on average) using a blunt object (clubs, hammers, etc.), than there been homicides using a rifle.

If you purchase a firearm from a federal firearms licensee (FFL) regardless of the location of the transaction a gun store, a gun show, a gun dealer’s car trunk, etc. that FFL must confirm that you are legally allowed to purchase that gun. So your attempt at that angle is bullshite and you should really know Wtf you're talking before actually spewing that nonsense.

That's just not true OweO. They have background checks at gun shows. The "gun show loophole" means that we arrange a private sale at a gun show. Simple as that. Everyone else runs a background check

So you are telling me I can't go to a gun show and buy a gun without having a background check, etc?

If I were a felon for example, you telling me there is absolutely no way for me to go to a gunshow and buy a gun through backchannels?

Wasn’t there an Always Sunny in Philedphia episode where they go to a gun show and attempt to buy again and are shocked they can’t just buy one? Legit how I see it happening to every non educated liberal on this subject.
