You cannot own an operable tank, which I clearly stated. You also cannot own an operable cannon, or a military style machine gun, like an M60, nor can you own any weapon deemed manufactured for warfare. Now, a semi automatic assault rifle is the question here, which most (over 65%) of the nation feels should be classified as such since it serves that purpose well but is not needed for any other purpose that a handgun, hunting rifle or shotgun does not already fill. Nice try.
Bubba ClintonI challenge you to actually go and look at what those bills actually say instead of slurping the fear porn. If you did, and had the slightest degree of intellectual honesty, you couldn't walk away thinking they did anything other than lie to you.
The right actually most closely resembles the Clinton era policy wise. Unless you think he was radical right I'm not sure what to say to you. Perhaps it's you and the left that has swung radically.
“You can own an operable tank and cannon and you can own an operable M60 machine gun. I own an M9 bayonet and (used to, damn flood) a Remington 700 with the same Leopold scope used by Army snipers until the mid 2000s. I also (used to) own a Remington 870 12 gauge which again is used by the Army. Then if you want to discuss the Baretta 9mm or Colt 45 pistols that any civilian can own we can.
If over 65% of the nation feels semi-atomic rifles should be banned then that should be enough to get an amendment to the constitution passed, get to work or STFU.
You're talking about the private sale of goods. It takes place all over. People aren't setting up booths at gun shows to traffic weapons. Gun dealers still have to run checks. It's been debated because it's intentionally misrepresented by gun grabbersHave you been to a gun show? It absolutely is true. “Gun shows” are a legal loophole for the purchase of firearms without background checks. It has been an issue debated for a long while.

The problems weren't created by a single person, and I don't see someone being able to undo them.Neither party has all the answers and there has to be some compromise otherwise we are headed down a dark path. I do believe that there is somebody who can unite us again, though I don't see him or her out there currently.

Again, private sales. Might as well call it the Walmart parking lot loophole (but it may not have the bite)http://www.houstontx.gov/againstgun...th-Session-Background-Checks-at-Gun-Shows.pdf
Its like this in 38 states.
“
The National Firearms Act (NFA) regulates the sale of destructive devices and several other categories of guns. It also established the Federal Firearms Licensing Center (FFLC) for issuing permits and licenses. The cannons and machine guns on tanks are considered destructive devices. A destructive device is any artillery weapon or firearm with a bore that measures over half an inch, except for most types of shotguns and rifles.
Before obtaining a destructive device, the buyer needs an FEP. The permit is issued by the FFLC, which is a department of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). The permits are primarily used for the sale of large fireworks for individuals that plan on using the fireworks for a public display. Civilians are unlikely to obtain an FEP for an operational cannon or machine gun without demonstrating a specific use, such as a controlled historical reenactment or research.
Federal explosives licenses (FELs) are typically only issued to manufacturers, importers, and dealers to facilitate the sale of operational tanks.”
Same for any weapon of warfare, like a bazzoka, a working cannon etc…etc…etc….Do some research before blowing hot air next time, makes you look ignorant.
You literally have no idea. A civilian will not be issued a permit to own a functional tank, cannon or weapon of warfare. Read the rule.There are thousands of operational cannons all over this country that are privately owned (legally) without a permit. And you can own a fully functioning tank, all you have to do is pay the $200 tax and pass the BGC. Same with fully automatic machine guns. Educate yourself a bit.

There are not open borders, you knew that and purposely wrote the opposite. Going after assault rifles isn’t the same as going after your guns, but you knew that also. Going after assault rifles is like outlawing citizens from owning an operable tank, or a bazooka, or an M60 machine gun, or anything else deemed to be made purposely for warfare.
As for ”regulatory policy to increase inflation”, you show your ignorance on the subject. The rest of your diatribe is likewise and reads like the failed manifesto of a madman.

It may not be widely known, but most ordinary American citizens can own a cannon -- or a tank equipped with a cannon.
