It is now more than evident that it is very dangerous for a society to allow for the widespread distribution and ownership of weapons whose sole purpose is to destroy human life.

Contrast Amendment 1 (Congress shall make no law...) with Amendment 2 (The right of the people...). That appears to me to pretty plainly say that there was (and is) an individual right to keep and bear arms, but that states can regulate speech, press, etc.
I’ve seen some very impressive skeet shooting with pump shotguns. Personally I love the sound of a Remington 870.
It's not about duck hunting.
OK.
I misunderstood your post.
And just 55 years ago it was the Foreign made 5 shot revolver and 6 shot .25 cal pistol called “Saturday Night Specials!” that had to be banned as they was so E-e-vil!
Starting in 1962 with the demand of Dems Thomas J. Dodd and Emanuel Celler...
1962 We ONLY want to register handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1964, We ONLY want to register ALL firearms, not ban them.
1968 We ONLY want to register all guns, and ban the import of foreign Saturday Night Specials, and 5-shot bolt action army surplus rifles! (they got the ban).
1970, We ONLY want to ban small American handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1976 We ONLY want to ban ALL handguns! Rifles will not be affected!
1981, Actress Lee Grant on Good Morning America screams and pokes holes in the air with her finger...”THE NRA IS A RIFLE ORGANIZATION! THEY SHOULD GIVE UP THEIR HANDGUNS AND THEY CAN KEEP THEIR RIFLES!”
1984, They came for the rifles.
Gun owners know they are always up against a stacked deck.
At this point, I really wish they would just go ahead and get on with it. It will be easy to identify the good guys from the bad guys.
He seems to be overlooking the fact that some human life should be destroyed. Worse still, he undoubtedly condones killing innocent human life with medical instruments, also designed specifically to terminate human life.
This!
And I’ve fired automatic weapons, Guns (that’s cannons to those that don’t know,) guided missiles and such for fun and in competition.
well, the colonel in charge thought it was training for combat, but I was there for the excitement of loud noises, explosions and such.
That’s funny, JackFromTexas! Thanks for the smiles and have a great Tuesday.
Well, I’m only 69.
Thanks for the civics/history lesson, fascinating.
Amendments don’t fight tyranny, people do.
What red lines haven’t been spit on and crossed? Haven’t the atrocities been murderous enough? Coups, unequal justice, burning American cities? Just wait until they go to far, then!
Everyone saw the whites of their eyes, all watched them march past. Now their dusty footprints disappear in a gentle wind.
Turns out behind every blade of grass was just another blade of grass.
“ It is now more than evident that it is very dangerous for a society to allow for
the widespread distribution of predators whose sole purpose is to destroy
human life.”
“ Fixed it. “

Good Fix!
It’s even worse to allow such predatory (pedotory?) types to steal our elections
and take over our governments.
~Easy
Bob Reid is an idiot, and snowflake with megalomaniac tendencies that disqualifies him from writing about firearms.
Pablum and drivel Bob, the hallmarks of a low IQ.

That is just as it was when my GGGG Grandfather and my GGG Grandfather followed Colonel William Campbell at the Battle of Kings Mountain and the Battle of Guilford Court House.
Most revolvers are essentially a semi-automatic,
if you can pull the trigger without having to
cock the gun again.
Most 911 style hand guns are semi-automatic.
Of course all official semi-automatics are.
This sounds like an easy thing to lose sight of.
By banning all these weapons, they’ll have taken
most guns out of our hands.
So just say you’re against those evil semi-automatics
and the prize is yours.
Ah... NO!
one small difference between us, laddie ...
i was convinced, as i stood guard duty on the back 40, in Thailand, that i would not see 21.
Then, each ‘age milestone,30, 40, 50’, would i live longer than my parents had?
now, i have done so.
(but here is the kicker ...i am the last of the bloodline, and ...sterile!)
Well, I know that means that when TSHTF you will be right there, God willing and the creeks don’t rise.

This is your reply:
“My statement reflects that my heritage was the yeoman class and as once a USAF Staff Sergeant taking any ultimate action myself is above my paygrade but I would gladly follow the Colonel into the fray.
That is just as it was when my GGGG Grandfather and my GGG Grandfather followed Colonel William Campbell at the Battle of Kings Mountain and the Battle of Guilford Court House.”
Your reply does not address my post in any conceivable way. Not at all. It's random word salad. What is with you?
