You folks think the Drug War is untenable and not winnable and are willing for that to end but Gun Confiscation is totally doable lol

That's great. So do I in my neck of the woods. It doesn't mean I want the government to reduce my options. And there's things they can do to reduce that option too.I live within walking distance to ( Whiskeytown Lake / Shasta Lake / The Sacramento River ) I know how to fish & have boats
If they start no knock raids that result in deaths of families and snipers start shooting folks open carrying then it will be open season on their families & themThat's great. So do I in my neck of the Art woods. It doesn't mean I want the government to reduce my options. And there's things they can do to reduce that option too.
The whole idea of banning one particular style of rifle is stupid when there are rifles that fire the same round are still going to be legal.Yes of course. You've added nothing to the discussion
This is a lie.Too many hunters think that since they only care about their shotguns, the democrat, anti-gun fascists will simply leave them alone....
To this I say....
They want them all......they will simply take them one at a time if they have to....until they don't have to wait, then they will take them all...
Those bills defined “assault weapons” by features, and in some cases by name, but Rep. David Linsky’s new bill takes a much simpler approach; defining all semi-automatic rifles and shotguns as “assault weapons”.
You’re a demagogue and a liar, like most on the dishonest right.Actually, that is incorrect....the democrats do want to ban them...but they have to ban rifles, pistols and shotguns one category at a time to boil the frog....
Good to see you have your "mindless nonsense" routine down.The people need to start the negotiations from a position of strength. in other words, go for the shotguns and get half the problem with the AR-15's.
Then ride on the success to go after the handguns.
You’re a demagogue and a liar, like most on the dishonest left.Democrats do not want to ‘ban’ all semi-auto rifles.
Oh look.I see it as the attitude that causes American men to want an AR-15.
Can you provide some details on that?I said:

Can you provide some details on that?In reference to that, I'm stuck on answering your question an metrics but I'm suggesting that too many American men want a weapon that is an attempt to imitate a weapon of war.
Can you provide some details on that?And I said:
Eliminate that and better than half the problem is solved.
Can you provide some details on that?I'm suggesting that the gun violence isn't immediately eliminated by the reduction of the number of guns, by is indirectly eliminated by a change in 'culture' and 'attitudes' toward owning those sort of weapons.
Can you provide some details on that?And I'm pretty well convinced that the guy at the range with his AR-15 who is blazing away at human silouette targets, could be seen as a potential danger.
Can you provide some details on that?Perhaps we can go on to discussing the reason why the Columbine shooters were motivated? Michael Moore made several suggestions in his movie. Some related directly to the 2nd. amendment.
You are right if they had there way they would ban all guns.This is a lie.

Actually, gun ownership in the US has been declining for years while the number of guns has skyrocketed. Mathematically, there is only one way that can happen. A small group of really crazy ass people have purchased an insane number of guns. Hell, when you look at the numbers it is comical.Yes, the move is in the opposite way in that Americans are buying up guns more urgently because they feel that life on the streets and in the mainstream isn't safe without having a gun. And 3/4's of them will die anyway in a hail of bullets from a seasoned gun user.
However, the fact remains that attitudes toward imitation weapons of war are the problem that must change.
That's what makes the school shooter or the mall shooter or the ................ shooter.
Wow, as if on cue.Can you provide some details on that?

Why did you work so hard to miss the irony of my post?Wow, as if on cue.

of the 265 million privately owned firearms in the US, about half are owned by 3% of the US adult population.
But after you quit laughing, well it is really kind of sad. Eight percent of gun owners own more than ten guns, and that number is reflected in the three percent of the population. A minority of the population owns guns, and a very small minority of those gun owners OWN HALF THE DAMN GUNS. I suspect many of our member gun nuts fit in that small little subset of a minority population.
So, we have this arguably mentally ill subset of our population living in a delusionary world in which they mistakenly believe that their hording of guns serves some patriotic duty. Easily manipulated by the gun lobby, it is this small group of people that flock to the gun stores after every mass shooting.
I will, however admit, that this small group of gunnuts has one response right when responding to these mass shootings. We don't have a gun problem, we have a people problem. What they fail to realize it is THEY are the people that are the problem.
"Real" hunters kill as fast and efficiently as possible. Some people like their bows and that's fine. It has it's admirable qualities as well, but a powerful lethal round from a firearm is more humane than whacking a deer with an arrow. Many deer survive arrows and go running around for a long time with it sticking out of them. Using a gun is really much more humane. You DO care about being humane, don't you? Or are you just so motivated by your subjective beef with the 2nd Amendment that you'll say anything?
Why do you think your opinion is meaningful, or relevant?Real hunters hunt for "sport". Not much sport in rapidly firing three shots from a 12 gauge semi-auto at one bird.
