And (p)resident branDUHn says-----"truth" or "facts", we'll choose "truth". And allegedly the BOR guarantees to citizens not to be interfered with by the government are NOT absolute. If that were the "truth", then what was the purpose of writing any of it in the first place? But, the 'gun lobby'. Those 100,000+ drug ODs last year? Meh.

The guns don’t grow fingers and pull its own trigger. How many people are killed with stolen AR. How many mass killers are on drugs for mental problems.

How about looking into other things instead of just going after the gun. And stop with the amount of rounds in mags.

IF YOU HAD TO GUESS… HOW MANY AR MAGS WOULD YOU SAY ARE FLOATING AROUND THE USA.. if you told me close to a 100 million I don’t know if you would be wrong. Maybe more.

I’ll admit to not knowing a lot about guns, but it seems to me that it would as easy, if not easier, to use a handgun with a clip that holds 10-15 cartridges to shoot a bunch of people at close range.

Seems like an AR-15 would be harder to swing around to the different targets.

Is a round from a good handgun as lethal as a round from an AR-15?

the RIGHT of every American citizen to own a firearm, or anything within the military dictionary of the word ‘arm’ is in the U.S. Constitution.
the CHOICEto own a firearm, or, ‘arm’, is within the perview OF THE INDIVIDUAL, and ONLY THE INDIVIDUAL, THEMSELF!!

it is NOT the right of the neighbor, the cop, the family doctor, nor municipal, county/parish/ward, state or federal politician to utter one whisper, what THE INDIVIDUAL —SHOULD —DO!!

Firearm ‘organizations’, be they local clubs, or, ‘I have a ‘certain model’, how about you?’, or, I think this guy or this girl would do well in politics’, sometimes step on toes they don’t know, because those folks do not feel like joining up. so they get left out, and in turn, are ignored. And as these groups grow, they become an entity that clashes with the individual, because, ‘if the individual wanted to say something, they shoulda joined with us!’

America was founded on THE INDIVIDUAL. an idea thought poisonous in Europe, at the time. it is the INDIVIDUAL’s to find and fulfill their destiny. firearms are wobdn into that fabric of America, in all facets, liked and unliked. there are countless stories of “good guys with vuns vs. bad guys with guns”. it was the good guy behind evrry blade of grass that made Yamamoto fear to enrage America.

presently, we have a lot of pigs in the poke, that do not want anybody on their list, to even THINK about owning a firearm, so they put up all tbe ruckus, ‘shooting over here’, ‘shooting over there’, and blah blah blah, just to make YOU think that getting one is not what society wants you to do!!! ok, so you surrender being you and go with what society wants. you’ve given over your right to self-preservation, and laid it at the feet of the politician.
good for you. now when the THUG comes to steal and kill YOU, and liberate your possessions, because the THUG believes they are HIS, and will ste over your dead body to take them, where is the politician?
at home, with their security/armdd team, having a hot chocolate!
