Back in the day when we went to class (highschool) after duck hunting in the AM. We stored our shotguns in our locker and the ducks went in the freezer in the science lab.
Cars and trucks got broken into out in the parking lot, they were safer locked in a locker.

Yup we made some real easy victims for the liberal evil spawn..

Here are three guns can you pick out the assault weapon.






They all are the same gun just the stock is different.

A weapon is not more dangerous because of it's looks.

Must hunting rifles are more accurate.

No No No. I meant working in a gun store under the a FFL lic., I had to get finger printed and pass a back ground check not NICS, in order to sell guns over the counter..

I had to pass that and suffer getting finger printed with out being charged for a crime..... to sell......

And then later after being a counter clerk selling guns the Boss wanted to go to Manchester NH to the gun show and sell and paid me to go there to sell. And there we still had to call NICS for buyers who filled out a 4473.

The guy off the street pays 6 bucks to get in and look all over...... If he buys he does the 4473 and waits while NICS is done... We in NH don't just go around finger printing everyone just yet

2009 Deaths by

Handguns.......6503
Rifles..............352
Shotguns.........424
Unknown...........96
Not stated.......1828
Knives.............1836
Blunt objects.....623

So liberals should be screaming to ban knives and hammers before rifles.

Doesn't the guns, rifles and shotguns add up to much more than the knives and blunt objects?

Well I had to sleep with a so called assault weapon in the military and I can say they are fun to shoot. At home I do not think so much of them as a defense weapon although the local police use them. Shooting is lots of fun and does not need to be involved at all in killing.

The right screams if more gun legislation is asked for, they scream like littel idiots when health care is passed,[and more required health care along with mental screenings may have stopped shootings like this.] They scream no mater what anyone does with a D next to their name. If Bush does it and lies about it, its fine and dandy, Bush wants to start two wars unfunded at the same time as giving tax breaks to the most wealthy among us? Fine go ahead. Obama wants health care that will help many problems we have as a nation and its scream your fool head off "I want my country back waaaaaa waaaaaaa" You right wing people just want to *****. Remember the west boro baptist church is a far right wing group, not a left wing group.

And people don't know guns get logged in every one and they get logged out too...... That is NOT a registry like many believe.

They may well be the same size or similar but fairly obviously the UK has a much greater population than Washington State.

Btw I personally am not saying all guns should be banned but that further restrictions should be looked at - eg when buying certain guns/rifles etc perhaps not the just the buyer's mental health needs to be checked out but also any members of his immediate family residing with him; storage restrictions may need to be looked at etc.

It is possible that the US may be too far gone when it comes to guns - they are so proliferative it may be impossible to ban them totally. Other countries with low death rates from guns have always had low gun ownership and perhaps if the US had put restrictions on guns in the early 20th century, they might not be in the mess they are now. Who knows.

Not Nukes, not tanks, not air craft carriers, not bombers or fighter planes, not submarines, not artillery and etc etc etc ad nauseum you gun grabbers always whine about.

You have no clue as to what a real assault weapon is, much less any clue what a real American is...

i used to own 3 AK-47 clone and now i only own 2 because i sold one to a guy I know in a face to face deal no background check what so ever.

And that IS legal and it's just too bad.


I will help with what the difference between a real assault weapon and a semi auto loader made from parts that look like a real assault weapon, and in terms any anti can understand.

The main difference is $10,000 to 15,000 bucks, plus what the weapon would cost if it were made in semi auto only.


The Why I own AK-47 style clones is directly due to Joe Biden and Bill Clinton who both created a ban. At the time I wasn't really into this sort of a weapon, as i was hard into single shot flint locks, not that you could tell one of those from a machine gun.

But right after 9-11 a woman came on the news who must have allowed Bill into her pants a time or two, and she said something like..............

911 would never have happened if Americans were not allowed to buy guns.....

Yup that did it! I took my wife by the hand and at 4:45 pm raced to the local mom and pop gun store looking for some evil and mean....

And there there were AK-47's made in Romania and I bought 2.And by 5:15 we were both out back shooting in the gravel pit!


Why 2? Well, I shoot lefty and my wife shoots righty and there are some technical disadvantages for whom ever the sights are not set up for that way. And by 5:15 we were both out back shooting in the gravel pit! beside she might need to save my life someday from one of you rabid anti's.


Right now i am saving up for a AR-10 in I hope .308, which is far more accurate than the AK and it can really reach out there to send a very special message.

You can run along now and play with finger paints. Be very careful with any scissors too BTW
Wow. Just wow.

If that's the way your brain works, then you are definitely a dangerous person and a part of the problem we face in this country. So very sad.

Assault weapon has come to mean in the American lexicon a gun with high capicity and semi auto. So you can try that narrow argument all you want its over. Assault weapon, high cap mags and semi auto. that is all that is needed to make it an assault weapon. Its what the term is used for. Gay does not mean what it did fifty years ago. It used to mean happy now it means same sex relation ships. Things chance man keep up with the now.
