If the government ever used some of their weapons on the public, the public sentiment would turn against the user's. An evil country will collapse sooner or later.

So in Connecticut you can't hunt with a gun on Sundays, but you can use a bow/crossbow because it's quiet. If you were to hunt with a gun and were fortunate to harvest game you might shoot once or twice, but there is no law to keep target shooting quiet on Sundays so folks have to endure the disturbing of the peace by the NRA crowd out to make a point. And they wonder why the majority of people dislike them? You're NOT a good neighbor running 200 rounds through your AR-15 at 9am on Sunday

[@randibgood]

I think they (NRA) must send out blast texts or emails filling them with fodder about their guns getting confiscated. No civilian needs a weapon that was SPECIFICALLY invented and designed to be used in war by the U.S. Army. No civilian needs weapons that accepts magazines. I don't even think civilians need semi-automatic weapons. I feel perfectly safe with our guns. They are all heirloom long guns, and almost as old as I am (11/68) with one exception. That exception is a one shot, that accepts either a rimmed .45 or a .410 shotgun shell. Why anyone NEEDS a 30 round magazine is absolutely foreign to me. I've been alive for 53 years and I have still not accumulated enough enemies to justify an AR-15. Or anything comparable.

Until we change our cultural perception and adhesion to guns, we can expect more shootings and more grief. The 2nd Amendment states clearly its purpose, "A well regulated militia, necessary to the security of a free state, the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Contextually written during a time when the "arms" referred to were flintlock rifles that required lighting smoke and oakum to fire. It is time to rewrite the 2nd Amendment to account for advanced technology that we now have and did not exist when it was ratified. No one NEEDS to possess a military grade assault weapon. The shooter at Robb Elementary repeatedly fired on little children, decapitating some and turning others into a mangled lump of blood and flesh. We must change as a species: We have become obscenely selfish and entitled. Banning assault weapons is a must but we need to focus on mental health issues simultaneously. The NRA should go back to teaching firearm safety instead of whipping up rabid ignorance of 'rights,' promoting the misconception that gun owners have more rights than the unarmed. I find it curious that the same people who are willing to criminalize a women's right to choose, to manage her own body, have no interest in protecting children. The hypocrisy is staggering. We can and must do better.

[@dudeonbike800]

Banning “assault weapons” is a fool’s errand. Too many ambiguities, loopholes, exceptions & work arounds. That would be yet another joke on Americans. ALL semi automatic firearms. They’re FAR closer to auto machine guns than the single shot firearms mentioned in the 2nd. 100 round magazines firing 2,3,4 or more rounds per second? That’s a war weapon causing mass casualties. “Self defense,” my ass! Single-shot firearms only. 1-2 rounds per minute are what the 2nd guarantees. That’s it. Sami auto are military weapons and should be reserved for that use, just like machine guns, SAWs, rocket launchers, Howitzers, tanks, fighter jets & war ships. Let’s get real.

[@mrs.lawlis5214]

@@dudeonbike800 You made my point. I agree with most of your comments, but the notion that it is impossible to change expresses the apathetic selfishness that enables unstable persons to acquire rapid fire high velocity weapons, who can then walk into a school or grocery store and cut innocents to shreds. Context matters. Imagine seeing someone you love, viciously cut apart and decapitated by a weapon that should never be available to civilians. We have to start somewhere and because the AR-15 has typically been the weapon of choice for mass murderers, it is the logical conclusion that it should be banned from civilian access.

[@jakebredthauer5100]

@@mrs.lawlis5214 Why would you say that gun owners have more rights than the unarmed?

[@mrs.lawlis5214]

@@jakebredthauer5100 It should be obvious to any thinking human that there have been no legislative changes to our laughable gun laws despite the spike in random mass shootings. The dead and grieving survivors have not only been ignored, but vilified by GOP afraid of losing NRA funding. That is placing the right to own a gun above the unarmed, murdered victims' right to live. Gun ownership is a priviledge that should require testing & licensing and proof of insurance. Just like driving a car. Have a great day.

[@jakebredthauer5100]

I see no inconsistency between the right to own a weapon and the right to not be murdered. One of the rights does not need to be subordinated to the other. Both rights can exist simultaneously. Having a weapon does not require one to murder anyone. Being murdered by someone is already illegal. Another example of your bad logic is when you call gun ownership a right and then later you call it a privilege. Gun ownership cannot be both a right and a privilege at the same time. Changing from one to the other would be a fundamental shift in power distribution. It is better if power is more distributed compared with power being concentrated in the hands of a few. I oppose your plan due to its adverse effects. These adverse effects were never even mentioned in your discourse, that I could see. A thinking person? I presume I am.

My belief FRONTLINE is amazing journalism, Never do I hear anything that could closely be misconstrued as a lie or untruthful. On the Gun control issue, It is "my personal opinion" That Yes we do have a right to bare arms, to protect our families and defend against attackers AS the constitution states. It is NOT the legal, legitimate or responsible gun owner that we need to target, but a control on the purchasing of a fire arm. It takes far more time to adopt a child than it takes to get a permit to own a firearm, Why? It takes far more testing and scrutiny to get a drivers permit, than it takes to get a permit to own a firearm, WHY? It takes far more time for a business to get a liquor license to sell liquor, than it takes to get a permit to own a firearm. WHY? I am sure I will hear a flood of off the top comments in every direction, but the fact of the matter is "WE" as the people of this FREE land need to find a common ground soon. Again it is NOT the responsible gun owners that is to burden the blame for the mass shootings, It is the lack of control on the Guns/weapons that are available to "Anyone" at anytime!

These parents all never cried on tv interviews instead they laughed and smiled thru out all interviews. 2nd. This was the beginning of the gov using these families who all just bought a house the same year this happened. Look them up purchasing homes moving to this new town. All conspiracy theorists videos have been removed from KZbin and scrubbed and those people made a living on KZbin. Thus is how powerful the gov is and has gotten since 9:11. If you talked about Joe Biden or Hunter Biden you were taken down removed from social media at the request of the White House Joe Biden & the FBI. something is about to happen. They gave an agenda. All of these parents did not want to identify their children body yet they all agreed to do so only with a picture. Robbie Parker’s dead daughter was sitting on Obamas Lap in a picture the day after the so called murders. How is that possible ??? Too many screw ups in this story. People marching in one door and coming out the back door of the fire house. If caught out of line you were told to keep circling in line. We saw it thru the helicopter view on the news. So many videos were proving what was going on. And their videos have been scrubbed. Why? Free speech what happen to free speech. We saw things in pulse nightclub. Group of crisis actors 4-6 people carrying a pretend wounded guy towards the nightclub not away from it and when passing the camera the guy with the flag shirt smiled then when the got out of view of that camera another angle camera caught them setting down the guy and he walked off just fine was not hurt at all. Fake crisis actors. There are false flag events. That doesn’t mean people do not die. It depends on the gov what they want to happen in some false flags like 9/11 3000 did die.
