Hickok45 on gun control: "It is my belief, and it is for a lot of other gun owners, that the purpose of the second amendment is that we have the same firearms that the military has"
You see, AR rifles might look scary, but really they're just semi-automatic rifles that function the same as other less scary looking rifles. The real scary weapons are actual military assault rifles, and I think anyone should be allowed to own those too! Obviously, these will only be used for good and will never be used to make mass shootings even worse. Of course, some people might perhapse use them for bad, so police will now need to be equipped to handle literal military weapons, and I see nothing wrong with cops walking the beat looking like they're patrolling Kandahar. This is the vision the founding fathers had for America!
I'm being sarcastic of course, but honestly how could anyone justify allowing literally anyone to purchase actual military assault rifles without any sort of licencing or training requirements?
Easy. Because the actual problem is murder. "Precrime" should not be a crime.
Murder is made way easier with guns, as a result gun prevalence increases murder rates. Nobody is suggesting "precrime" is a crime.
Do you think civilians should be allowed to own nuclear bombs? Would it be a problem for civilians to own such arms, or would murder the be problem?
You really love just peddling the same lies nonstop, huh
You and a couple other fellas in here never actually add anything of substance or value to any conversation. It’s always a one liner with you clowns.
Better than your two lines of crap
