re: So Banning “Assault Weapons” Will End the Killing?

Thank you for you service majority of my friends are jar heads.

you sound like someone I'd have a beer with.

For the record, my home defense weapon of choice is a VEPR-12 SBS, but who am I to say that a person can't have a 6 lb AR with light recoil if that's what they are comfortable with? It's perfect for smaller people.

Comparing it to an ICBM is childish. You're better than that.

I realize. A SAW is superior in almost every single way. No better way to defend property.

Is that the contention of the Left? That banning a particular platform type will stop the murderous intent of the human heart? Okay. Fair enough. I am for stopping the killing.

I think the argument is that the killer's efficiency would be reduced drastically.

It's probably a good thing you were an MP.

It's a bad argument. Someone willing to commit mass murder isn't going to follow AR ban laws. There are already hundreds of millions of ARs in the US and more will come pouring over the southern border if there was a ban. Banning them almost exclusively takes them away from non-criminals. In the internet age, thinking you can effectively ban something is so completely antiquated that it's comical.

Its like suggesting that we stop heroin users from getting high so efficiently by banning heroin.

We are working off the premise that all assault weapons are banned. And killing continues.

Still waiting for an answer from the Left.

Premise - All “Assault Weapons” have been banned and are no longer available.

Effect - Mass killings continue.

Question - What do you do next?
