Ratchet down the firepower in "civilian" hands while ratcheting up the drones and military surplus to Police and DHS...

Who is the “Spearman” mentioned in the article?

[Travis McGee]

Only trained professional in the military and the police need semi-auto rifles and pistols.

[Machavelli]

As soon as those sorry pitiful cowardly politicians give up their armed protection and the equally pathetic Hollywood elites do the same, I am keeping my arsenal.

"There is no valid reason for civilians to have assault rifles, semiautomatic handguns and high-capacity magazines," he said. "We have to start ratcheting down the firepower in civilian hands in the United States."

well just look to Chicago and the fine job our Community organizer president has done to find out how great gun control works. Works find for mafia and gangs.Lets all just be at the mercy of the scum of the earth.

'nuff said.

How ironic.

Nobody could have articulated the reason better than this elitist pig who probably has heavily armed bodygards.

Technological advances will come soon when it won’t be about magazines or bullets but power packs and lasers.

Then what? Regulate everyone back to the stone age?

My reason is that I will be able to defend myself when other people decide that I'm expendable. FMCDH

Wait a minute. I thought Glocks were the evil handguns and the choice of terrorists and mass-murderers everywhere, and then I thought it was Desert Eagle. Now you're telling me it's Springfield?

I wish someone would just publish a guide so I can tell the good guns from the evil guns. That would be so handy.

Guns, guns, guns, guns, guns, guns, guns,.....yakitayakitayak.

I don’t give a ratz behind about the GUNZ.

I want to know: WHO WAS HIS SHRINK AND WHAT MEDS WAS HE JACKED UP ON?

Until the focus shifts, the direction is lost.

[Slump Tester]

FU Wisconsin “officials”! Come and get’em!

I love my Springfield XD9...”ONE” of my favorites

There is no valid reason for journalists to have direct access to the internet, television, radio and the printing press before their stories can be thoroughly checked by a gov’t authority first.

[BCW]

Those “Gun Buy Back” operations hosted by various police agencies have been reported (not by the media or govt. ) to have failed. There was a Dept of Justice report on it. Those programs don’t work. Just like gun control doesn’t work.

There are trying to take a tool used away to prevent the crime - instead of looking at the root of where the criminal took the path that ultimately brought him to the decision to commit to it. Of course that take a time and effort, it’s far easier to confiscate guns from everyone to make it seem that everyone is safer.

Then again, I used to be in law , a trooper - and there were physical fitness standards to be maintained - just like the military - now a days - about every officer I see is overweight except for a few. They are suppose to protect us when we are left unarmed???

Wisconsin Sikh Temple handgun identified — discussion

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin inteest ping list.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The purpose of "gun control" is to give the government a monopoly on violence.

Governments, primarily socialist/Communist governments, murdered 200,000,000 of their own citizens in the past hundred years, and gun control was always the first step.

[gunnut]

Even with a quick response by police in this case and in Aurora, when seconds counted police were only minutes away. Though from what I understand about Sikhs, they would not be likely to be carrying weapons.
