Why Restricting Guns & Magazines in NOT the Answer

If the military would not fight against people fighting against the govt. Then there isn't a need for the firearms anyway.

Though we know that local police have blown up an entire neighborhood in Philly and were willing to kill those innocent women and children. It's a tall order to believe that they wouldn't fight against armed resistance against the govt. Sure there would likely be some defections.

 

Back to the original topic. Restricting guns and magazine size etc is the answer unless sybernaut and the like can prove that Americans are genetically mutated to be homicidal.

All their other silly excuses fail. Video games etc.

 

The answer to what? Reducing gun violence? Why not make attempts at broader strokes to reduce violence as a whole?

 

because you have some crazy imams out there preaching violence.

How can we even talk about guns when we should really talk about Islam-control. Take AKbar 47's off our streets!

 

I couldn't care less about Islam-control, but certainly think there are other avenues to reduce violence as a whole, perhaps understand the roots of the violence and give some people a hand.

 

The funny thing about the gun nuts blaming movies and video games is every country has access to those same games and movies but they don't have the same gun violence because they don't have access to the GUNS.

 

You say this as if we all experience and are affected by things in exactly the same way as one another...

 

I just find it interesting for people to wholly support unfettered access to deadly weapons in the second amendment while decrying the freedom entailed in the first amendment. You can buy an AR15 at Walmart but watch out for those movies.

 

Did you give ATW access to your account?

 

false on both counts "gun expert". The barrel is by far the most complicated part of the gun to make as well as a factory made firearm. It requires the tightest tolerances and special technique.

anyways it isn't an issue. You can buy barrels without any paper work. There is only one part on the gun that is considered the firearm and it is the part with the serial number.

 

hmmm, actually that is when you most need a standard capacity mag. When you are scared for your life and are not in a great state of mind to swap mags, while possibly defending yourself against multiple attackers.

On the other hand, a guy who plans to kill many people in cold blood will be calm and be able to do mag swaps easily and quickly. The fight will be on his terms and everyone except him will be scared and cowering. Limiting him from 15 to 10 rounds will have much less of an effect than a person acting in self defense. How hard is it for a mass killer to have a backpack of 10 round mags compared to the average joe having more than even one mag.

 

the whole world isn't full of americans. it's a typical american sentiment to believe the world works the same way as it does here in america.

 

You are missing the point entirely as per lusual. If you make your own gun here, you don't need to file any paperwork and it is legal. In other countries it is still illegal so making your own offers no advantage to buying an illegal gun.

 

They have also been systematically trained to follow orders and that the President is the commander in chief. That you are assuming a mass mutiny is comical.

Take the military out of the equation. A handful of individuals do not have the firepower to take on the HPD.

The better question is...why do you feel you need an extended magazine? The Constitution does not guarantee you access to them. In fact, looking at the time in which it as written, the Constitution guarantees that you can own a freaking musket. If you can load and pack it before I can get away, by all means shoot me.

 

Alternatively, the Constitution allowed access to the most cutting edge military hardware available.
