Gun control debate (merged)

[luthervol]

cool... ask mr. potato head to sign an EO banning guns.... done.

Why? I don't want to ban guns.

 

[StarRaider]

Why? I don't want to ban guns.

cool

 

[kiddiedoc]

None of these proposed policies infringe upon one's right to keep and bear arms?

Not any proposed policy that would reduce gun violence, no.

 

[luthervol]

cool

And about that definition.

You're going to refuse, right?

Says it all.

Cool

 

[StarRaider]

what definition? provide the background and link to the definition. not taking a 2a nutjob as a source

 

[kiddiedoc]

Here you go:

Drawing from federal and state law definitions, the term assault weapon refers primarily to semi-automatic rifles, pistols, and shotguns that are able to accept detachable magazines and possess one or more other features. Some jurisdictions define revolving-cylinder shotguns as assault weapons.

OK, so FYI: that stupid definition basically deems most modern guns as "assault weapons."

If SHTF or someone is breaking into my house, I'd rather not rely on a WW1 relic for protection. Did you ask your friendly neighbor if he likes your criteria? I think you should.

Nobody grows up playing Navy or AirForce.

Luther definitely played Navy.

 

[luthervol]

what the heck is an assault rifle? a supersized 22? with a MAGA clip?

wow only a complete dum bass would believe something that stupid.

You asked, and you received. You're welcome.

How about sharing your definition - lol, this will be fascinating

Here you go..............

I'm asking for your definition.

What is your definition?

Or try this. I provided a definition, now it's your turn.

Can you provide your definition?

Are you willing to give a definition of your own?

What would be the definition you would offer?

Cool

I certainly wouldn't know.
I would venture to guess that under some definitions the answer would be yes and under other definitions the answer would be no.

I'll play: selectable full automatic firearm with high capacity mags. Explosive rounds. Rocket-propelled projectiles.

There's a way to find out.

your definition was incomplete since it did not specify what the other necessary features were - without that information it is impossible to determine if any semi-auto weapon fits the definition.

semi-automatic rifles, pistols, and shotguns that are able to accept detachable magazines and possess one or more other features

 

[volinbham]

since we can just make up definitions I'll go with a fully automatic rifle.

 

[kiddiedoc]

How about competition springs, short pull trigger, and super-dangerous day-green laser?

 

[kiddiedoc]

Do flamethrowers count as "other features?"

Asking for a friend.

you offered a definition - can you not apply your own definition?

I have a Zippo strapped to mine - would like an answer

 

[Orangeslice13]

Just as a point of contention….the AK47 and AK74 only come with 30 round magazines….there’s no other option. Therefore the AK magazine is a standard capacity magazine and not a high capacity magazine.

McDad grew up playing Navy

I’m sure he played with a few seamen

Not really. We haven't agreed on a definition yet.
