American's on Gun Control

[@RainingAnarchy]

When the second amendment was written all firearms were military grade. 🤦‍♂️

[@probuilder961]

Yeah, people have been duped by the media.

[@jhnstuhlmiller]

Pretty sure they still are.

[@RingoPornostar]

Uh, yes. People owned private navies 🥴 "A well-regulated militia is considered as essential to the preservation of civil Liberty. What, indeed, is a militia but the people themselves prepared to act as soldiers for the purpose of resisting oppression and securing their rights. To be prepared for war is the way to prevent it. To be ready in arms to meet and resist tyranny never fails to deter its approach. Tyrants dread freemen, when freeman not only have arms in their hands, but know how to use them." William Paterson, one of the first SCOTUS judges, 2nd governor of NJ, and signer of the constitution

Id be pissed if all i had was a government issued AR. Mine are way nicer and more accurate.

[@gabe4131]

@@EricT3769soldiers also have pistols, and knives, depending on the soldier I’m sure even more. MPs carry pepper spray. They’re also taught martial arts, should I not learn how to throw a punch? Why do you think people are better off not being able to do harm to others? Bad people can do harm to others without an ar 15, they can obtain an ar 15 without obeying laws too, so why would you want to restrict the rights of law abiding citizens that can use an ar 15(for example) to protect themselves and others. Also why should the government have any weapon at their disposal and the people can’t? If you’re pro democracy wouldn’t that mean you want the people to have the power? Do you think that we do have the power? And that the people having guns would be important for us to maintain whatever freedom we have? Maybe I overdid that, I just think there are so many good points to be made in favor of freedom of firearms and weapons in general and the arguments for gun control are ridiculous.

We don't care if you want to be gay and disgusting or chop off your genitals and play pretend we just want you to leave our kids out of it, anti gunners don't care if we keep our guns to ourselves they don't want us to have them regardless.

Alright, imma type this out slowly so you should read it slowly: "military grade" doesnt mean what you think it means, and the US Armed forces, and Space Force, do in fact use AR15s, _OR IF YOU WANNA BE REALLY PEDANTIC_ they use CAR15s since Colt purchased the operating mechanism from Armalite prior to proper adoption and Colt rebranded it to the CAR15.

Gee, that's an incredibly overstated comment: Shall we start with a discussion of my sister commenting suicide with a gun? How about the drunken firefight started at our neighbors' house at 3 in the morning by one of their ex's? Or the deaths every other year when the squirrel hunters were killed by another hunter because he saw a squirrel... Apparently on the first man's leg (tied off on a belt). Until gun proponents start admitting that there are stupid people with guns and they shouldn't be allowed to have them we're going to disagree. Every one of you know at least one guy that you don't trust on your range and has been asked not to come back. Everyone shouldn't be entitled to a firearm.

[@BananaRaid]

​@@francisdavis1271 All terrible situations that would most likely have terrible solutions. Suicide isnt a gun problem, your sister, may god rest her soul should have got treatement but would have attempted selfdelete other wise regretfully so. Hunting accidents are a thing absolutely but accidents still. And domestic violence cases is a good point which is why when you buy a gun the background check and ATF form covers that. Other than that the pro 2A argument is one, everyone should carry responsibly so if some guy who is off hinge goes wacko then there should be 2 or 3 men to check him. 2, even stupid people have rights. Its called Freedom. Speak softly and carry a big stick. Be a man, brother. Protect the freedom of us all by not furthering the infringement of the feds on us by being an American man.

[@user-gw1ky2dy6s]

​@@francisdavis1271that is why regulations are important 😮 I totally agree with you, but I also understand the need for the possibility of defending one self and others. Let's state an example: cars, lots of people die because of all sorts of car accidents but I don't see anybody asking for banning them, and I say this from a perspective of a guy that had lost a few friends in car crashes, but one must undertand and respect the needs of the people 🤷🏻‍♀️ (I would rather live in a world with no guns, cars, drugs, alcohol and many other things but is what it is 😐 and we must learn and adapt 🤔).

[@mike30680]

Cars are dangerous and aren’t protected by the constitution but bad drivers still get to drive. Felons already can’t own firearms. I know people I wish didn’t own one, but their rights don’t end where my opinion starts.

[@RingoPornostar]

​@francisdavis1271 My brother shot himself in front of me. I am 100% as pro-gun as it gets. Your opinion is that we should assume guilt until proven innocent and thereby ban firearms from citizens prior to committing a crime, and only allow them their God given (not man) right to self-defense until they have proven themselves worthy. Every gun law is an infringement on human rights. Ban guns from people who have proven their ineptitude. If you want people to have training, bring it back to public education.

[@psyklown5198]

Assault rifle = military firearm that is chambered for ammunition of reduced size or propellant charge and that has the capacity to switch between semiautomatic and fully automatic fire. Because they are light and portable yet still able to deliver a high volume of fire with reasonable accuracy at modern combat ranges of 1,000-1,600 feet (300-500 metres), assault rifles have replaced the high-powered bolt-action and semiautomatic rifles of the World War II era as the standard infantry weapon of modern armies. An ar15 is semiautomatic rifle that has a range of about 800 yards but its not accurate at that distance.
