    To you, yes. To someone who understands the constitution and the very nature of liberty, a patriot.

    Does a restriction on hi-cap mags prevent you from owning a gun? No? Then it's not an infringement. Pretty fucking black-and-white.
    A gun with a severely restricted ammunition capacity, other than what was designed (like a revolver), renders the gun a blunt instrument and no longer a firearm built for its intended purpose. It is an infringement. All restrictions of how a gun operates is an infringement.

    And since we have the most powerful and well-funded military in the world, by an order of magnitude, a well-regulated militia is hardly necessary for our security.

    Restricting ammunition capacity is just another way to make sure the bad guys and the government are the only ones with guns. Control. Period.

    Calling people cowards already? Big talk from someone who would never put your neck out for anyone.

    Guerilla warfare. It's all that is needed to keep the government in check.

In other words, it makes killing lots of people in a short time period easier. It has nothing to do with defensive shooting and everything to do with offensive shooting.

    Mass shootings committed with high-capacity magazines between 1984 and 2013: 36

    Recorded instances of guns with high-capacity magazines being used in self defense during the same period: 0



    The idea that a mass-murder is in no way "inconvenienced" by the lack of a hi-cap mag, but that a private citizen is, would be laughable if it weren't directly responsible for the deaths of so many innocent people. I've heard so many people say "Hi-cap mags aren't the issue. It takes 2 seconds to reload. Banning them won't change anything". OK, so why do you need them if it's as easy to reload as you say it is? If it takes them 2 seconds to reload, it takes you 2 seconds also. A high-cap mag can't be a boon for you and a bust for them simultaneously. If it's easy for them to reload, it's easy for you too. If a hi-cap mag makes it easier for you to shoot a large number of assailants, it makes it easier for them to shoot a large number of victims. You don't get to cherry-pick the upsides and downsides and them apply them in whatever fashion furthers your own zealotry.

    I like reloading less often.

    You couldn't.
