AR-15 bullet "has so much energy that it can disintegrate 3 inches of leg bone. It would just turn it to dust” -Donald Jenkins, trauma surgeon @UTexas

Yes, and I said that is YOUR 'precrime' world as Democrats today want to do the same thing.

If we could, there would be no reason to ban guns.
But we can't.
So the answer is "B"

So you are going to 'ban' criminals from getting guns because you 'ban' guns? If you believe that, you are highly delusional.

Call it, requiring a license, and paying a tax, just like with alcohol or cigarettes'.

Same for voting and speech, right?

which is the same fucking thing as Minority Report.

Exactly, these idiots think you can ban evil by banning inanimate objects.

Charles Whitman killed 11 and wounded 31 in 96 minutes from the tower at the University of Texas using a bolt action rifle. Stephen Paddock killed 60 and wounded 411 in 10 minutes in Vegas using an AR-15. Any questions about why they need to be banned?

What an AR-15 Can Do to the Human Body

When a patient is shot by an AR-15, it "looks like a grenade went off in there."

‘Bans’ don’t work – whether it’s abortion, Prohibition, or guns.

More government excess and overreach isn’t the answer.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

I refer to Honk Kong and Venezuela and why the AR-15 cannot be banned.

The M249 SAW was developed through an initially Army-led research and development effort and eventually a Joint NDO program in the late 1970s and early 1980s

Oh my lookie here! The gun expert has identified an M60 7.62 x 51 Machine gun as an M249 squad automatic weapon which is 556 caliber! You can't make this level of fail up!

I was referring to the heavy wall of rifle cartridges vs the thin walls of pistol cartridges. Rifle combustion pressures are 60,000 PSI, while pistols run half that.

Twice the pressure, in a barrel at least three times as long, means a lot more speed than a pistol round.

Here's the problem with the entire premise of the argument.

I can kill a bear with one shot from a 30-06.

I can also kill a bear with one shot from a compound bow.

One is very fast and the other is very, very slow...but they accomplish the same goal by a change in weight and design of the business end of the projectile.

The question you're trying to answer boils down to this analogy.

Would it be better to be hit by a Fiat at 120mph or a '76 Cadillac at 50?

The answer is, it depends on so many variables that the only good answer is to take what precautions you can to avoid being hit by either.

Banning one or the other for safety sake is foolishness.

That's just goofy.

Just like alcohol or cigarettes, I pay tax on my guns and alcohol when they are purchased.

 

[Markle]

The Japanese would listen for the sound of a stripper clip hitting the ground in WW II. For the same reason it's sane to limit magazine size.

Yeah, that'll work! Just declare large magazines illegal, then roll dump trucks through the South and West sides of Chicago, St. Louis, San Francisco, Detroit, and other Red cities and the gangstas will just toss in their oversized magazines!

The trucks will need guards armed with guns though or the thugs and gangstas will hijack the truck at the end of its route!

Hey liar, alcohol and ciggie aren't a right. LMAO, you like to look like a fool, don't you?

[Dagosa]

you banned every progressive from being in the United States, then the country wouldnt be in the mess it is today,

Nope, you’d have a third world country with no science. You’d all be humping rocks looking for the best lookin* turtle, and trying to answer your only self absorbed question, “ if you divorce your wife, can she still remain your sister? “

so, I guess you’d be happier, at least for the 36 years of your total life expectancy.

 

[miketx]

I guess it's not true that the postman only fails twice!

[AZrailwhale]

Why? Is it illegal?

Too heavy and two expensive. .50 BMG is about six bucks a round.

Don't matter, I'll just use a bullet dolly and get the dims to pay.

 

[AZrailwhale]

The one with a magazine of 15 or more bullets.

That's both of them.

 

[woodwork201]

Just the opposite. The AR-15 type weapon is uniquely deadly based on the way the cartridge acts on the human body. Even though it's a full metal jacket, its interior ballistics of tumbling and high speed, produce devastating wounds. Together with the large capacity magazines, and ability to carry hundreds of rounds, makes them uniquely dangerous. They are weapons of war, and have little other purpose than to kill human beings.

Do you know how full of shit you are?
