Democrat presidential hopeful Robert “Beto” O’Rourke responded to those who want to keep their AR-15s by asking why they do not pursue ownership of a bazooka as well.
O’Rourke’s comment came after a gun-totting mother in Aurora, Colorado, told him that he was not taking her guns.
O’Rourke later took to Twitter and wrote, “A woman in CO told me ‘hell no’ she won’t give back her AR-15. I listened, but by her logic: Why shouldn’t you be allowed to have a bazooka or a tank?”

If I can own an AR15 why not an F15? I will forgo the bazooka thank you.
How many old westerns have we seen where there is a cannon in the town square? It was a local militia weapon.

You can own a P-51 or Korean era jet...no reason (beside $$$) you couldn’t own an F-16....(minus the gun).
I had a neighbor that had a working black powder civil war style cannon and we live in NY. I am not sure if it was an actual civil war cannon or a reproduction but I imagine it could do a lot of damage when deployed. The barrel was about 3” in diameter if I remember correctly.
Why not indeed?!?!!?
Now he is catching on.
It’s to shoot at my tank.
Damn good question, Beta.
I own one of those Weed eaters. I melt 60 lbs of lead in about 20 minutes.
On low. Seriously.
Jeez, is this what passes as serious political discoursein our country these days?
Why not a bazooka?? Because, Beto , you imbecile, bazookas are so yesterday. I expect to be able to walk down the street with something like a brand new Mk 153 Mod 2, you freedom-hating POS.
I love that weapon but what a chunk to hump.
What’s the current MSRP for a semi-automatic bazooka?

Of course not. This is Democrat political discourse.
I believe a person can own a modern battle tank if he can afford one. So, I am not sure what he is talking about.
At the very minimum a person should be allowed to own the standard field rifle of the current military or its equivalent.
lol
I’m in! Dibs on the long disgrace work heh.
Too much training...ha. Maybe I'll just purchase an AC -130 Spectre gunship and be the tech operating the weapons.
