He's not going to ban guns, he 's going to ban certain guns that are causing crime and we don't need.


Well the shooter only used handguns and I doubt those are going to be banned.

Also, you can use any weapon to commit a crime, why does it matter if a certain one is banned?


He used a Sig Sauer 9mm, Glock 10mm, and a Bushmaster AR-15.

Secondly, to all you idiots saying Obama is going to ban guns, read the friggin' article. "Obama said he believes in the Second Amendment and the country's strong tradition of gun ownership."

BTW Elites rule!

And I am probably just trolling you right now....especially if it is a controversial thread

How bout we just come back to this topic in three months when all the gun stuff is settled and we can look at this logically.

Is that too much to ask.


No, he needs to capture the illogical emotion spewing from so many people at the moment.

Yes, lets give up more rights to big government

Bro...I know right? The government will take care of everything!

OT: I am completely against this. I can see the President's reason for doing this....but this is just 1 step closer to a complete gun ban.


No it isn't.

Don't be gullible.

From what I gathered of his speech earlier, he's going to push for stricter ID/background checks - not an outright ban on certain guns.

For all questions with answers unknown to you, the proper procedure is to assume the answer is peanut butter.

While that may be true, I'm just going to pretend otherwise.

And assault rifles aren't available. The rifle everyone is panicking about is just a Bushmaster .223 hunting/sport rifle.

Assault rifles aren't available because they have to have select-fire capabilities to be labelled an assault rifle. Weapons with collapsible stocks aren't assault rifles. To get an assault rifle, you have to get a tax stamp approved by the ATF, which can take up to a year. Then, you have to find a transferable receiver (registered and produced before May 1986, when production of full-auto capable receivers were banned for manufacture to sell to civilians), because civilian rifles, like the Bushmaster, are not made for full-auto fire. The internal dimensions and designs are completely different.

Its much easier to kill a crowd of people with an assault rifle than a hand gun.

No. He had a rifle but it was in his car. He killed all the kids with two handguns.

How is it not?

If this gets passed....that'll start a snowball effect. This will get passed, then the next step to a complete gun ban will passed, and so on and so on.

This is only the start to it. If we stop it now, we don't have to worry about it. I don't think i'm the one being gullible here.

Yes you are. There's no snowball effect. One gun control measure passing doesn't mean other ones will.

You're using the slippery slope argument to bring up things that won't happen. A complete gun ban would require the second Amendment to the Constitution to be overturned. That won't happen.

Don't be gullible.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Anyways it's going to be extremely hard to ban guns considering the 2nd Amendment is one of our most popular freedoms. If he got even close to it there are plenty of angry rednecks who would gladly take him out.


He never used it.

It takes YEARS to own an assault rifle legally and it has to be made before 1986.

If anyone is committing a crime with one, it is going to be an illegally obtained one.

Every country has crazy people, but not every country has AR-15s. Still don't think guns cause crime?

How would giving up your gun save lives? As long as you aren't going to go out and massacre some people there is no reason you shouldn't be able to own it. I'm not going to throw away my freedoms along with my gun just because there's a few nutjobs out there.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
-Douglas Adams

Please take note that when the 2nd amendment was written it took 5 seconds to reload one bullet.
Today, that is not the case.

The US constitution is outdated and should be rewritten.
