Ah the AR15. Silly point. Without the 30 round magazine does less than a 30/06. But it looks real mean.

He tried to spin it that the report was about how they would sell a gun to a terrorist but not a reporter.

Why not have magazine size restrictions?

Some have said this or that gun (usually an AR 15) is not needed for home defense. I say so what that isn't a prerequisite of the right.

Because they serve no purpose.
What difference does a 17 round magazine make over a 9 round one when I literally can swap a magazine out in less that one second.
I already see the converse point... if you can have 2 9 round magazines reloaded in the same time as one 17 round one why not just go with the two smaller ones?
Reason is because pointless restrictions are pointless. There's enough room for real changes that stuff like this, pointless stuff, is really only a bargaining chip.

You could. But say a rifle is limited to 10 rounds. Some 9mm hand guns can hold 12-15. They fire rounds at exactly the same rate. One shot per finger pull as fast as you can repeat that.

Yeah ok. I dig your rap.
I find AR15 pointless.
But I also find Humvees pointless. I don't know why someone would want one but if you want it... whatever.

I don't know why anyone would drive something other than a GTI.

But I imagine some guy might have a harder time killing 50 people having to reload every 5 shots instead of every 30 shots. That is a lot of magazines he has to carry around...a lot of swapping time...maybe enough time for a security guard or cop, sometimes, to take a shot.

It won't solve for 100% of our mass shooting deaths. But I'm willing to consider any changes that could reduce it by even 5% or 10%.

PittMike when you talk about the "right", are the people you are referring to part of the National Guard?

I'm not a gun guy, but I don't like workarounds of the Second Amendment. Liberals who claim the Second Amendment meant muskets are mistaken or disingenuous. The amendment exists because of who those guys were and what they went through. It's not about shooting deer or protecting oneself from prowlers. It's protection against an overreaching government. And the idea is that the power be equal. It doesn't do me any good to have a musket if the government has a tank.

I'd be in favor of limitations if the government itself (at least on the local level) had similar limitations. You'll hear people cite European countries, but their police forces aren't walking around the streets looking like an invading army armed to the teeth either.

Make no mistake, any politician that is in favor of gun control is taking about controlling your guns, not the guns protecting him, either in his pocket or on the hips of the bodyguard detail around him. Speaking of which, there's this Shakman trial with Daley's bodyguards that Rahm replaced. I say, fuck bodyguards for these politicians. We're short cops as it is, we don't need ten on Rahm and four on Ed Burke. If you're too frightened to be mayor without armed guards, get another job. I'm sure we'll be able to find someone willing to take the chance. The last time a mayor was shot was Cermak and there's controversy over whether the guy was aiming for him or Roosevelt. Before that I think it was Carter Harrison.

In today's world where a young lady singing at a mall and signing autographs is a target,there is no way in Hell our Mayor should not have bodyguards.

Alderman is another story. If Burke want's them,he can hire them. There are plenty of minor league politico's walking around our city with police escorts. It really is ridiculous.

As for guns,the guy who invented that assault rifle used in Orlando did not even own the gun. He made it specifically for the armed forces. Nobody needs to own an automatic rifle! If the Army was to walk down American streets today to "take over",it would still get done no matter what some hillbillies had in their arsenal.

Still can't get your head around the fact that automatic rifles are already outlawed huh?

Automatic rifles are illegal in the United States, Jimmy.

You sure about that, jimmy? It didn't really work that way in Vietnam or Afghanistan.

Why not just ban bullets? The constitution doesn't say anything about the right to bear bullets. Let people carry around their guns all they want.

I bet IMU and denis could take out an entire division from a balcony at Windsong Court with just a couple of rocket launchers.

Ok. But the Orlando guy or anyone recently that I can recall had a weapon manufactured prior to 1986. Moreover, your link spells out the process this guy would never pass to get one. It is extremely difficult for one to do so let alone a guy with this guy's background.

So civilians should own rocket launchers,too?
