There was no quibbling, as you say.

I just made the observation and thought it a bit odd you posted a thread about CA gangs and then chose to post a picture of gangs from Tennessee, which is totally unrelated to the article.

Totally unrelated? really? the underlying point has nothing to do with California really. The underlying point is that gangs are growing and spreading and that, because of this, we are seeing a rise in homicides which involve multiple perpetrators and this is is why firearms with high capacity magazines are legitimately needed by law abiding citizens who wish to legally defend themselves as the SCOTUS has declared we are within our legal rights to do. Because of this new reality, banning high capacity magazines for civilian use effectively denies citizens the right to self defense which, because of previous rulings, is unconstitutional. Given that these criminal thugs are also in possession of long guns, as evidenced by the picture, it can similarly be argued that denying law abiding citizens the right to possess semi automatic rifles with detachable bog magazines capable of holding 30 or more rounds is equally unconstitutional especially when we consider that the FBI estimates the US gang population to be approximately 1 million members nationwide. that’s almost 10x larger than the Venezuelan army. It’s well over 10x the size of Cuba’s Army. It’s 4x the size of the British Army. It’s about 8x the size of the French army. Clear and present danger. that’s the relevant point that you should take away from this post.

The only difference between your Tennessee gang and the SD gang is the southern drawl.........and the moonshine they sell.
