Actually I have no desire to disarm the country at all. I OWN A GUN...why would I want to disarm myself? Good grief.

That being said, I don’t think citizens should have military style assault weapons. You disagree. That doesn’t make me a communist or you the supreme commander.

We’ll agree to disagree.

You want to infringe on my rights based on nothing more than your feelings. You can't even articulate one persuasive reason why they should be restricted.

I, on the other hand, don't wish to require you to own one.

That makes you the tyrant in this exchange. You don't have the right to be free from irrational fears, and you sure as have don't have any right to limit mine to make it so.

I've heard the "common sense gun control" argument since I was a young man, 25 years ago, when the "assault weapon ban" was first floated. The arguments failed then, and they fail now, even more so since an AW Ban was law of the land for 10 years and made no measurable difference in crime rates.

And that's according the DOJ.

You agree with your neighbor, DiFi, the original AW Banner. Fellow travelers need to stick together.
