Stop banning me please.

I think AR's should be banned but there are plenty out there. There really isn't a problem with guns. There is a problem with bad people and mental people and security.

Depends, i cant say i like the idea of guns being so accessible. but as criminals do not go by the rules that restrict them, its impossible to say we should ban them.

Watch out, for some reason mods have aneurisms when we have these threads

I like how your sub box is full of science and political videos but your recommendations are full of anime girls kissing each other.

Just Zoid being Zoid ^_^

1) the vast majority of guns used in crimes are purchased illegal
2) how do you define an Assault Rifle?

I wont bother debating it, but here are my main points:

-Gun control lobbyists will curtail any comprehensive law senate tries to pass. They did that last time with '96 AR ban.
-There are already millions of firearms in public hands, so control in any form, short of a complete ban would be useless in regulation.
- Businesses will design thier gun production around a ban as per what is banned. They also did that before.


summary: Gun control in a country with pre-existing basis of firearms, gun control is next to useless, and only supports criminals over law abiding citizens.

edit: AR's are overhyped, they dont even show up dominantly on the top 15 US gun massacres, the majority is to handguns. Plus handguns are way cheaper and lower profile for crime.

Only handguns should be allowed in populated areas. If its the country where there is no one there then it is okay to have any short Of gun but assualt rifles must be semi automatic with only 3 rounds per mag including chamber

Really, it's sort of justified. These things tend to get... heated.

So a semi-auto handgun in a city can have a normal sized mag(10-15 ish bullets, depends on the gun), but in the country it has to have a 3 round mag?

This.

Also, I'm a supporter of the second amendment. Laws only affect those who obey them. If you ban guns, only those who are law-abiding citizens will get rid of their guns. The crazy psychopaths who are planning on shooting up a school.. well, you can bet that they'll easily find access to a gun. In reference to the CT shooting, had those teachers been carrying firearms in their desks, the shooter could have been taken down sooner.

Plus, I'm sure if someone was planning on doing a shooting somewhere, knowing that the people around him were armed, he would probably think twice about doing it.

The term assault as defined by the federal government is a weapon using defined attachments. AR's have things like what you commonly see in video games like high capacity mags (10+), suppressors of any kind, rails, extendable or fold stocks, ect.

Thats why there are terms of assault-shotguns,handgun, ect.

Please do not send me group invites.

I think our current gun control laws are just fine.

The problem is that so many people think gun control = taking away everyone's guns

Halo 3

isn't this a political thread and should therefore be banned?
