I was watching a movie with a friend that used to be a Navy Seal. There was a guy in the movie that got garroted.. you know, guy came up from behind and put a wire around his neck yada yada yada. I asked him if that is what the Seals used. he said naaaaah, too much noise. Aluminum baseball bat.

So ban aluminum bats. Deadly weapon if used by the right person.

Your questions are idiotic.

I had a SEAL tell me something similar. They talked about crushing skulls when Cuba sent its boatload of crazies over. He said aluminum bats and axe handles got the crowd under control quickly..

You fabricate important pieces of conversations and then worry about my mental stability. Hilarious. You're exactly the kind of person who should be barred from owning firearms.

wow.


So let me ax you: You live in Orange Mound by chance? Ever go down there? At night?


Why not?

Under what circumstances would you?

No truer words were ever spoken. Do me a favor. Go by the statue in OK City and hang your head as you offer an apologetic prayer.

What statue? This statue? What did Will Rogers do?

But LV, with due respect, you have also stated a few times you know absolutely nothing about the very products you also propose to regulate. I am guilty of responding with some smartass answers to some of your posts, but what you, and a lot of very well meaning people do, is akin to, probably, you telling me how to change the saw cylinder on a Lummus Imperial 88 gin stand.

None of us on this board want another child to die at school. A large portion of us do not want to have our 2nd Amendment rights trampled by people who do not know what they are talking about.

I do believe, whatever the cause, our problem is we have wolves among us of a different form than we have faced. And defanging all of our pets is not going to stop them.

The problem with what you wrote is this: You have nailed who luther is; an ignorant leftist caught up in emotion of the moment.

The real danger however is the elite leftists that are hell bent on destruction and theft of success in America. That theft cannot be obtained until the populace is both disarmed and docile. Luther doesn't see the obvious. He sees the headlines and nothing more.

Lol “it’s a stupid gun”. Great argument. Why should it be banned over any other gun out there? It’s not the most accurate. Not the most powerful. Doesn’t have the largest capacity. Why that gun? Besides “they’re stupid”, of course

The idea that school shooters will simply give up if they can’t find an ar is the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard

I'm asking because I don't have a clue. Reading these two posts , I wonder why the AR is used at all?

The same reason handguns and shotguns are used in these types of attacks. It’s an effective weapon. But it’s not exclusively used. I don’t even believe it’s disproportionatly used. Although the media tries to call every gun an ar 15

I stated earlier I do not see any of you changing your positions. Charlton Heston was more prophetic than I realized at the time. The guns will be pulled out of your cold dead hands. Many died still arguing that the earth was flat.....but it's not and never was.

look, a squirrel.

You are really something luther.

Wouldn’t have happened if alcohol was banned

True. I grew up in a dry county in Kentucky. We traded gigged fish for beer when I was 16.

Yup.... illegal to buy beer in Kentucky before age 21. Illegal to buy it ANYWHERE at ANY age in my county. Drinking those PBRs was a figment of my imagination.

Come to think of it, smoking weed was illegal too. But nobody did that, because it was... you know... against the law.

Australian Gun Law Update

Here's a thought to warm some of your hearts....
From: Ed Chenel, A police officer in Australia
Hi Yanks, I thought you all would like to see the real
figures from Down Under.
It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced by a new law to
surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by our own
government, a program costing Australia taxpayers
more than $500 million dollars.
The first year results are now in:
Australia-wide, homicides are up 6.2 percent,
Australia-wide, assaults are up 9.6 percent;
Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)!
In the state of Victoria.....
lone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent.(Note that
while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not
and criminals still possess their guns!)
While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady
decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months, since the criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed.There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins andassaults of the elderly, while the resident is at home.
Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public
safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in 'successfully ridding Australian society of guns....' You won't see this on the American evening news or hear your governor or members of the State Assembly disseminating this information.
The Australian experience speaks for itself. Guns in the
hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws affect only the law-abiding citizens.

In 2009, we wrote an Ask FactCheck item for readers who wanted to know, “Did gun control in Australia lead to more murders there last year?” The answer at the time was “no,” and that’s still the case.

In fact, the most recent government report on crime trends in Australia says, “Homicide in Australia has declined over the last 25 years. The current homicide incidence rate is the lowest on record in the past 25 years.”
