I guess Scott Pappalardo is also against all ethical hunting, too. Unless you're shooting small game with a .22 or similar, you need (and are required by law in most places) high powered weapons to make an ethical kill.
I have yet to get a rational response when I ask a gun grabber for a definition of a "high powered" weapon.
You know, the “modern sporting rifle” thing is an evasion - Shakespeare refers all the time to “equivocation”, when Catholics had to hide their beliefs behind a smokescreen of Protestant-like words.
I have several hunting rifles. I also have a sufficient supply of autoloading, semi-automatic, high-powered 5.56 rifles and a decent supply of ammunition for them, but I sure didn’t buy them and I don’t practice with them or maintain them for hunting.
They ARE designed as anti-personnel weapons. That’s WHY I have them, and that’s WHY most Americans who haven’t lost them in a boating accident or cut them up with a circular saw have them, too.
What part of the 2nd Amendment ain’t about hunting don’t u get?
