Feinstein: Nah, You Don't Need an AR-15 if a Bombing Terrorist is Roaming Your Neighborhood

Last week when Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was running from police through neighborhoods where families live, I tweeted the following:

[rktman]

As usual, difi has a firm grasp on.......NOTHING. Suppose there had been more than 2 asshats involved? Suppose despite the huge cop presence, these guys eluded them and decided they really liked the looks of your place. NEVER let these politiclowns take our firearms away. This sad little marxinista needs to toss in the towel and slither on back to san fagcisco.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Just set a boat trap in your back yard...

FEINSTEIN: Well, how about a machine gun then? We did away with machine guns because of how they're used.

uhm.. really? check your facts. a: you can still legally purchase them (if you can afford them, and jump through all the hoops) and b: when was the last time an actual machine gun was used in a crime?

You Don't Need an AR-15 if a Bombing Terrorist is Roaming Your Neighborhood

Just let your neighborhood paramilitary police unit handle it, true they may end up shooting your dog, trashing your house and traumatizing your family, by forcing them to the ground at gunpoint. But you don't want to look like an "unpatriotic" turd in the police state punchbowl, do you?!?

[rarestia]

when was the last time an actual machine gun was used in a crime?

If you watch Law and Order re-runs, almost every night.

[baddog 219]

LOL! Yea, that’s all homeland needs to catch terrorists..
Use the sneaky boat trap... All terrorist can not resist the boat trap.

You Don't Need an AR-15 ...

but the cops do...

[mountainlion]

when was the last time an actual machine gun was used in a crime?

A cop shot his wife!

[absolootezer0]

If you watch Law and Order re-runs, almost every night.

and they can just look at a hole in the wall and tell you the calibre and what kind of gun shot the bullet too, right?

[Tupelo]

DiFi may be disingenuous, but she is right this time. An M4 would have been much better. I really do not think that LEO were carrying AR15s. If the cops & military carry M4s, that is what I want. All I am asking is one, just one more stop on the saftey switch. Safe-Semi-Auto. One little notch further.

[mountainlion]

We did away with machine guns because of how they’re used.

We need to do away with governments because of how they’re used.

[rarestia]

Absolutely! Everything I learned about crime scene investigation, I learned on TV!

[Gaffer]

I have a simple question. How many firearms were confiscated by police during their cell-by-cell incursion into the public’s freedom?

[Cyber Liberty]

I watched the Wallace interview, and I was appalled. I can use a shotgun, and I have the element of surprise? WTF is she talking about? (I bet she’d hate my shotguns. Two are Remmie 1100 semi-auto.)

I read yesterday the trend in home invasion robberies in my area is to knock on the door, and if nobody answers break it down. I never answer my door, but can you guess what would be waiting for somebody if they kick my door in? Hint: Not a shotgun.

[cripplecreek]

A local columnist wrote a fairly decent article about why the so called 90% didn't stop the gun bill. He's moderate to liberal so there's plenty to disagree with but he's right about the so called 90% failure.

Gun owners did not thwart the will of 90 percent of America

[Cyber Liberty]

Extra hint: Always remember rule #2 for zombies.

If there is a bomber running around my neighborhood, I DO NOT want to wait until s/he is within pistol / shotgun range. That would put ME in the blast zone. A long gun would work nicely, thank you very much.

[bgill]

By the time they’re finished, we’ll have nothing to defend ourselves with but our nail clippers. Oh, wait, those are being confiscated, too.

[sheana]

About a month ago the house right down the street had their door kicked in. I was at a bday party Sunday and a couple there told me their brand new in the middle of nowhere neighborhood has had burglaries left and right. It really doesn’t seem to matter where you live anymore.
So we had a wrought iron security fence with a lock put across our huge arch out front. We have a huge courtyard. Now no one can get to the front door. lol

[bravo whiskey]

IIRC the m-4 has 3-round burst, not empty the magazine rock and roll.
