Got into an argument today about full autos. My closing argument was to check online gun auctions for an M-16 in "good" condition. He won't find one for less than $20K............
Not only that, but strict gun control certainly hasn’t stopped mass casualty attacks in places like Britain and France. For someone with those intentions, building an improvised bomb or renting a truck is much easier, cheaper, and more difficult to detect than buying a machine gun. That would be true even without our current laws on automatic weapons.
This is what is so silly about Brokaw calling our side “emotional,” when his arguments are based on nothing but emotion and his distaste for “adapted military weapons” (whatever those are). They argue for gun control measures like an “assault weapons” ban or “universal” background checks without a shred of proof that those measures would save a single life.
