I can't even remember the last time a politician said BS. 
They could not get elected if they were not truthful.
Then why is it Mel, that the chief reason people are giving to buy AR15s is to have them handy in case of a tyrannical government? Do you think this Republican Lt Governor is the only one who thinks that way? Do you think Michael Fanone is making it all up in his article?

Well, if the talks on guns in the senate continue along the lines they're being reported, the same 18 year old would be able to walk into the same gun store and buy the same AR15 and the same sixteen hundred rounds of ammo and...

Is that why "The US leads the developed world in gun deaths"?

I thought after hearing from the pro-gun folks that having guns is supposed to make us safer, right?

Here's what I posted and you quoted and responded to: "Well, if the talks on guns in the senate continue along the lines they're being reported, the same 18 year old would be able to walk into the same gun store and buy the same AR15 and the same sixteen hundred rounds of ammo and..."
And then you post, "Let's hope so..."

While that's unfortunately not the case, what would we ever do without an AR15 for "home defense" or for use as a "sporting rifle" for "target practice" or for shooting "prairie dogs" or "coyotes"  or for protecting against a "tyrannical government"?

What Greg evidently doesn't understand is that an assault weapons ban, even if it were to happen, would not affect current ownership of such a weapon. So James is quite correct, nobody would come to take Greg's guns. But, like the AR15 buyers in GEORGIA shown in the Pakman video, logic reasoning and understanding need not be applicable...

We just disagree, that's all. 
No, you just disagree with the facts...

I'm sure the families of the victims in the mass shootings have no respect for your opinion, either...
