Bait enhanced word smithing for stupid people.

Thanks for the clarification as I know that I am certainly not. Mind you, I am for banning things like domestic violence (regardless of the weapon used) or the neglectful treatment of the mentally ill or the cycle of the culture of violence and fatherless youths and welfare mothers commonplace in African American communities and elsewhere in society today. I wonder if Mr. Zimmerman too has the courage to speak up about banning these things as well.
Or the Bill of Hunting etiquette or rules.
Self protection with a firearm doesn’t just extend to the wilderness against wild animals. There are millions of wild animals walking around on 2 legs in cities everywhere; particularly Chicago and Baltimore.
Coming from the left it does for sure. I've used it back at them to debunk their nauseating assertions.
Lewis and Clark carried an air rifle that held 22 bullets. They really did not need 22 bullets did they?
That almost reads like the bear used the bear spray but still attacked the human. ;)
Same for David E. Petzal of Field and Stream.
I believe both “saw the light”.
The study these noobs refer to in an attempt to push bear spray was generated by tree hugging bunny lovers.
My Bear spray consists of 300 grains of hardened lead .460 in diameter traveling about 1500 fps.
Idiots like this are fun to read about being eaten while trying to be in harmony with Nature.
“Hunters know that high-capacity magazines and semi-automatic rifles are unnecessary for our sport.”
I am tired of this whole notion that the 2nd Amendment:
a) has anything to do with hunting, any other sport, or even protection from street criminals; and
b) gives us the right to keep and bear arms.
The 2nd Amendment exists to ensure that the people have the means in their hands to do exactly what the Founding Generation did - overthrow a tyrannical government, should one ever arise here. It is the final guarantor if Liberty. Further, it created NOTHING - it merely recognizes the reason for this pre-existing right (to have a well-regulated, i.e. well-disciplined and -trained, militia), and to make certain that this right (to keep and bear arms) was kept outside of the power of the government to infringe upon (states as well as the federal government - notice that there is no Congress shall not” clause, as there is in the 1st Amendment).
The “you don’t need this for hunting” argument is old, tired and long since disproven. Let’s get rid of this sport-related justification for owning arms...which was brought into our law almost word-for-word from Nazi law in 1968 by then-Senator Thomas Dodd, who was a lawyer in the Nuremberg war crimes trials. It is an alien concept in American law, and should be stricken from our codes.
Wow! Full auto & almost no jiggle. That is one well-toned gal; she could make an eight day clock run for a month!
;^)
What range does she go to?
And do you happen to know where it’s located?
I remember back in the 1970s when all the gun magazines ripped into the AR-15 as being a “mouse gun, Mattel toy”, whippy and innacurate, plastic, too light for deer, not a real hunting rifle, blah blah blah.”
Then Mel Tappan wrote his book on SURVIVAL GUNS, soon had a survival column in GUNS AND AMMO magazine, and sales, and prices of the Ar-15 began to take off.
Of course, back then the MSM considered RIFLES good, Handguns were bad.
Then around 1985, the MSM realized the rifle was a “Target of opportunity” to be banned so they went for it.
Is that Richard Dreyfuss? /s
Dan, Dan, Dan! The second amendment isn’t about hunting.
LOL! Cammo bikini!
I (semi-facetiously) disagree. The Second Amendment *is* about hunting.
The hunting of those who would commit tyranny and oppression - public or private. And if we are to hunt men, well, we need the appropriate weapons don’t we? (I find this useful to throw back at those who claim it is about hunting but conveniently forget to mention *what* it is that is to be hunted in such a paradigm.)
it’s time for leftists, who claim they believe in democracy and equality, and who claim to be against oligarchy, to acknowledge that semi-automatic sporting rifles are a tool in the toolbox vs tyranny.
Not holding my breath.
I avoid it because it implies previous dishonesty, it sounds smarmy, and because (in my limited experience) it precedes actual dishonesty. IMHO. YMMV.
