    Because America is to become a battle field. Thomas Jefferson said so.

    Assault rifles and guns with quick loading clips should be banned. No one needs to have those kind of weapons. They exist only to kill people. If we don't get these guns out of the hands of nuts, we will continue to see these terrible massacres by crazy people who should be under lock and key somewhere. I have no problem with owning a rifle for hunting or a gun for self defense in your home but I cannot imagine continuing to live in a country where everyone on every sidewalk, in every store, in every theater, in every office, in every church has automatic weapons on their person. That is insane.

    If we take them away from law abiding citizens then only nuts will have them. I live in a state that you surely deem insane, lots of people packing and I feel safer, however criminals do not. LOL! You might want to better research why our founders included the phrase "shall not be infringed." ill give you a hint Ice-T hit the nail on the head on national tv just recently.

    The founders had no idea of the weapons that individuals would have access to today. We need an amendment spelling out what is ok and what is not.

    For our government to own as well as us? We must match if not exceed the firepower that our government has in order to keep the Constitution secure. "When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." - Thomas Jefferson

    Do you really think you or anyone can exceed the firepower of the government? You might have been able to when everyone was using muskets but not now. How many tanks have you got? How many nukes? How many F-18 fighter jets, etc If the government wanted to put down an uprising they would. There's no way to compete with their firepower.

    So we need to just roll over and accept tyranny?
  • Pat Wake Th... 2012/08/12 21:12:58

    No, but if the government, any government, wanted to crush us they certainly could quite easily. There is no way to fight an army as well trained, well armed, and with all kinds of tanks, bombs, air power, etc. Even if every one of us had an AK-47, we'd still be sitting ducks. The most anyone could do would be to hold a certain location (as they did in Waco) for a short amount of time and wait to be killed by the authorities. It just makes no sense to argue that we need weapons to fight the government. It can't be done.

    So we should wait and die? Do you really think the US military will fire upon US citizens? More likely it'd be UN troops. In which case the US military would join the people fighting with those weapons that you spoke of before.
  • Pat Wake Th... 2012/08/13 04:14:55
    Pat
    No, I didn't say just wait and die. I just think that the whole scenario is pretty farfetched. Not that it couldn't happen but it probably won't. Whether it's American troops fighting us or American troops joining with us to fight U.N. troops, it will be an indescribable mess all around. I hope I'm dead before any of these things happen.

    We were warned about letting the government, corporations, and central bank, getting this big. Now it's only a matter of time... Did you hear Obama's speech calling for the use of the same piece of legislation that he said his administration would never use? The indefinite detention of American citizens under NDAA 2012.

    Absolutely NO!!....That would be the first step to handing over FULL CONTROL too the Government!...And they already have more control than they should have! Have a look at what happened to Australia...the crime rate due to the banning/regulation of 'ready access' to home owners guns has sky rocketed! Citizens are losing their lives and the LEO's are doing little or nothing about it!

    If the shooter in the theater would have had a smaller clip, more people would have been killed. Large magazines are notorious for jamming, which his did. People should be careful what they wish for just because it sounds good. Everytime there is a shooting it is done in places where personal weapons are banned.

    these folks equate an assault weapon as a smei auto weapon " and an assault weapon is capable of fully auto firing "

    in colorad his weapon was semi auto ..he fired it very fast & the mechanism jammed "as you said " ,these uneductaed people are programmed to believe what there fed ,,and dont bother to research before spouting conjecture here !

    I personally have a fully auto AR15 A1 .with many 100 round barrell clips . the majority of fully auto weapons dont jam .

    Fully automatics are only available when you have a special permit, which is pretty hard to get. They don't understand the difference.
