Gun sales way up.

LG, my patrol car has an m4 assault rifle and a tactical shotgun in the trunk. If these weapons are stolen am I liable along wuth the state?

Random question.... is the M4 select fire?

The Romans should've had ADT systems.

Didn't need them. Cave Canum.

If you mean the actual M4 as carried by the military yes. The civilian variants do not.

Military models are, civilian models are semi-auto, unless you have a class 3 license.

 

[l3rewski]

I know, I'm just wondering what variant patrol officers are carrying. I assumed most were just civilian AR15s, but I imagine SWAT could have actual M4s. He confused me with "M4" and "assault" rifle.

And, possibly, more secure houses...

Old Roman houses were walled compounds. There was one entrance guarded by a guard and a dog. The inside of the compounds opened up to atriums. This was the Roman 'yard'.

The amount of large, ground level windows on houses throughout America is certainly intriguing and, while I in know way blame homeowners, it is inviting burglars.

I'm pretty sure civilians can't have select fire AR15s/M4s at all due to the ATF only allowing pre-86 stuff. Unless you have a manufacturer license.

Sure you can, its only the lower reciever that is registered.

Sure you can, its only the lower reciever that is registered.

While you are correct about the lower being the "serialized" portion you must have special licensing to legally own a "machine gun". (which includes select fire)

He is also correct (unless something has changed) that while you CAN own such a weapon with the proper paperwork it must be made prior to May 1986.

The Shadow War: Assassination of Gun Rights | Truth About Bills

The reality is that it takes time for the police to arrive and sometimes those precious minutes are the difference between life and death. Young Sarah McKinley proved this just a few days ago. Who knows what the two suspects would have done to her and her young child.

In all of this the Obama Administration has remained silent or so it appears. The fact is President Obama has decided to invade the second amendment fortress through the back door. It is no secret that Obama is extremely left wing and this also extends to his views on gun control.

Just this past week the President has decided to ignore parts of the 2012 Omnibus Spending Bills. He included a signing statement with the bill he signed into law. Within this statement President Obama declared that the congress has no power to dictate how he spent money to fund anti-gun lobbying.

That’s right the Obama Administration is funding to lobby the government. How exactly does the government lobby itself, President Obama?

The Obama Administration, thank God, has suffered many failures and set backs on the issue of gun control. The most recent example of the Obama Administration’s undercover attack on the second amendment is the now infamous Fast and Furious scandal. The Administration used the operation as a catalyst to start the debate for tighter gun regulations.

The Obama Administration is also in favor of the United Nations Arms Treaty. This treaty would severely restrict American’s gun rights and make us all subject to the United Nations.

The only real legislation that was passed by Barack Obama was banning the importation of semi-automatic rifles of a historic value. How come we never heard about that? So much for a transparent government I guess.

Another interesting fact is that Obama appointed Caitlin Joan Halligan to the U.S. Court of Appeals. She is a huge anti-gun personality and even sued several gun makers and has asserted that gun manufacturers should be liable for what their customers choose to do with them.

When you put all of this together with the cost of ammunition mysteriously skyrocketing and the cost of a concealed weapons permit you can tell that the Obama Administration is waging a shadow war against the second amendment.
