Assault rifles for self defense

[Politico]

Yeah I pointed out the same thing on Jose the other day. He threw out one number spinning it like everyone gets killed by rifles..

 

[mudwhistle]

Your right, but the left has an agenda and they never let a crisis go to waste. If you calculate the number of child school days and the number of school deaths I'm very sure it's much safer in school than a airplane or any other routine activity. Children are statistically safer in school than home, but admitting that would not fit the agenda, so you will never hear a gun grabber admit it.

Where do you get that its the "libs" who want guns in our schools?

Take responsibility for what you say and do.

Libs as they always have, don't want anyone except government to have guns, we have police in schools here primarily to protect kids and teachers from other kids. It's the libs that keep saying people shouldn't have the right to protect themselves with force equal to or greater than the threat. Criminals will get weapons, your answer is to disarm their victims.

Remember the hell they raised over allowing pilots to arm themselves.

Taxing guns and ammo to pay for armed security in schools should be something that conservatives and the NRA would agree to. After all, tobacco is heavily taxed and helps pay for children's healthcare (CHIP).

how about we tax parents if they want a guard at the school their kids attend.

 

[bodecea]

Fuck that, let the teachers unions pay for their irrational fear of workplace violence. That make just as much sense as much of the crap the left is pushing. They got all this money available to give to candidates, let them up some bucks for security.

Vicki Soto would disagree.

 

[Politico]

How about pay for their own shit and leave my taxes alone.

 

[syrenn]

Fair enough...as soon as we start taxing every family with school aged kids to pay for the schooling...I'll be happy to pay for the security.

Fair is fair.

 

[syrenn]

So, that's it for qualifications? Just be unemployed and hungry?

If you frightened little mice really want armed guards all over the place, you can pay for them. I will happily pay to NOT have them.

Nope, I don't need an armed guard because I am armed.

Yes, it seems the places that arms aren't allowed are the targets of these lunatics.

who wants to be shot back at?

There are other less lethal forms of person protection than guns - such as pepper spray, tasers and stun guns.

 

[syrenn]

And, since it IS the rw froot loops who want this, they should be the ones to pay for it.

really...seems to me one guy is ...suggesting it. That's a far cry from wanting it.

Yes, they're pretty effective chasing away muggers but not so effective against crazed gunmen bent on murder.

pepper spray to a gun fight..... feel free.

Vicki Soto would disagree.

That was "aimed" at the gun grabbers and a simple echo of the language they use to describe gun owners. Tragedies can happen anywhere, except in some of the major urban areas, schools are statistically pretty safe for teachers and students alike.

 

[thereisnospoon]

life, liberty and property is not defined as taxes or employment. equal protection of the laws means equal administration.

wanna try again full retard?

"Equal administration?" You are a total fucking retard. "Equal protection of the laws" means the laws apply equally to everyone. The 14th Amendment doesn't mention life, liberty or property. It refers to "the laws." That means all the laws. No exceptions are mentioned.

You're barking up the wrong tree if you think you are going to win this argument.

really did you just read your retarded post?

Section. 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

full retard it is...

Hey liberal. The 14th amendment covers Life liberty and property as well as guarantees equal protection under the law.
Shut it.
I have see deliberate ignorance for one's own purposes. Your's is the frosting on the cake.

Hey Lakhota, your ignorance is showing. I don't want any bad guy with a gun close enough to use any of that crap, distance is you friend in any encounter with a bad guy.

 

[saveliberty]

Yep, more gun control spin threads by the left here than unlocked rifles in the senior parking lot at a Texas High School.

 

[martybegan]

yet you claim your right to have assault rifles and automatic weapons is absolute under the 2nd amendment.

SEMI-automatic rifles, which is a common, and established technology for placing a round in the chamber of a firearm.

Assault rifle is a made up word by gun grabbers, and automatic weapons are not being considered for bans, as they are already tightly regulated.

automatic weapons are actually banned from being manufactured in the US for sale to the public.


the term assault rifle was not coined by "gun grabbers," . The translation assault rifle gradually became the common term for firearms sharing the same technical definition as the StG 44. In a strict definition, a firearm must have at least the following characteristics to be considered an assault rifle:
It must be an individual weapon with provision to fire from the shoulder (i.e. a buttstock);
It must be capable of selective fire;
It must have an intermediate-power cartridge: more power than a pistol but less than a standard rifle or battle rifle;
Its ammunition must be supplied from a detachable magazine rather than a feed-belt.
And it should at least have a firing range of 300 meters (1000 feet)

So the AR-15 used would not be an assualt rifle, as it cannot have selective fire as sold.

As usual, the facts show that the idiot liberal dumbocrat is having an irrational, knee-jerk reaction to an issue they don't understand:

Hands fist and feet have killed more than both rifles and shotguns combined. Shall we start confiscating hands fist and feet?

 

[Noomi]

Some one explain why having a school janitor for example trained in firearms is wrong!
I mean he is trained in the use of fire extinguishers.. why not trained and authorized to use a gun?

Are you going to pay the wages of that armed guard?

 

[Noomi]

This is the current front page of HuffPo. Yeah, I know, you rw's are scared to death of HuffPol but, you can't escape these facts.

Understand that the front page headlines change so the chances are it will look different if you go look later. But, all of these stories are available - if only you cared enough to read them. For that matter, if lobbyist Wayne LaPierre cared enough to look.

The media is disgusting. They politicize everything for ratings. All the crazies know all they have to do is kill a bunch of folks and you will help them be instant rocks stars. Look I was a loser and everyone will see me now!
