I'll have more faith in the extensive study the FBI did than your comment that you are now backpedaling on after I called out the B.S. evident in it.

I know plenty of females that are just as, if not more, interested in guns/the right to keep them, than I.

No fact to back up argument, no solid basis for implementing the gun control laws, etc.
What guns does the Militia's have that declare war on our government and plotted the OKC Bombing? Tell me?

You live in Tuscan. I can see that. I live in Oklahoma, lots here as well. But the fact is people on the streets especially the City, do not need more fire-power than the cops, they do not need access to military weapons.

So now everyone who has or wants an AR-15, an AK, or even a Ruger 10/22 is a terrorist. Thanks for that info.

The greater Tucson area has well over a million residents. I live right in the middle of the city.

I have an AR-15 rifle. It looks just like what law enforcement gets. Difference is, I have to pull my trigger once for every bullet fired, then can pull and hold and let the gun empty the magazine or get 3 bullets to one pull.

I fail to see how mine out powers theirs?

Sure my rifle looks like it may be a military/le rifle, but its not.

So he was NOT killed with the firearm you stated....

What WAS he killed with?

I gave up my privacy rights that Bush took away, he shredded the constitution to 'protect us' against terrorist. And you have a problem
with guns meant for military and law enforcement not being sold to people to protect us from the same thing?

Ya'll still have your guns, *if* they could even try to get this passed in congress, and IF it's even on the table. I don't see congress passing it. And I don't see it as priority over the economy or the war right now. We had this law for 10 years, and you guys still can shoot ****.
