Can we ban Trey yet?

I agree with this message.

Why would any "law-abiding citizen" need an assault rifle? For defense? Against what? A 10 point buck?

You did not answer the question.

If you want to argue what's the reason for needing it, we can start to argue against a myriad of everyday items we use because "What's the use of it?"

I mean, why do I have two cars when I could just public transportation or walk? Ride a bicycle? Instead of spewing caustic toxins into the air?

What would be your reason to not allow a law abiding citizen to own one?

Well, one is much easier to get than the other from everything I hear. If someone needs a assault rifle, they should have to jump through a number of hurdles to get access to it, it shouldn't be something that a few phone calls or a simple (and often flawed) background check can get. I know it's a controversial subject, but I think both side agree that they shouldn't be that accessible. That's all I'm saying.

Do you even know what an "Assault Rifle" is?

There are places to use cars with 400+ bhp, why does Joe Schmo need an automatic assault rifle? It goes without saying that I'm probably not that well-versed about the gun control situation (I freely admit it too,) but how can you rationalize anyone needing one of those?

Automatic?

You are ignorant.

Please, just stop.

You're embarrassing yourself.

"The government only wants to ban cars with 400 or more HP, so why is that a bad idea?"

z31, another excellent contribution.

Don't be upset because you're mentally impotent.

Shh, go finish your bag of bolts turbo build.


Maluco, sure they're just trying to build up their membership numbers, but this seems like an odd way to go about it. Is a NRA membership and a basic background check enough for anyone to go out and buy a gun, or do they need a gun permit as well? If a NRA membership is all they need to acquire a gun, then this seems like a reckless decision IMO.

Please stay out of this thread until you have a clue as to what you are talking about.

And I mean that in a good way. Educate yourself about basic rights.

You are ignorant about guns and firearms, firearm rights, who can and can't purchase and/or own them and you are injecting your biases, based on your ignorance, into the thread.

It's the equivalent of posting something like "If I had a speeding ticket in the past, am I banned from buying/owning a turbocharger?"

It was my understanding that this decision would make guns easier for anyone to access, however that seems to not be the case. I just don't see how the NRA having a sudden boost of members is going to anything to sway the government's decision on outlawing guns. The only thing I have heard mentioned about the banning of weapons has to do with assault rifles, so why is that a bad idea?

Oh, what's that you say? The crime rate just went up 30%?

Wow, this is an excellent idea for promoting non-violence and keeping guns out of the hands of people who should not have them in the first place. I put new/used car dealerships above these guys, at least the car dealers aren't trying to kill you and your loved ones.

Apparently you are not aware that the NRA sponsored the original bill to ban Felons from owning firearms, and to allow Blacks to own firearms so that they could protect themselves from hate groups like the KKK

Try reading up on some history before spewing ignorance.
