Why is the federal government going after the scary rifles? they are involved in 320 gun deaths a year average.
Handguns account for more than 8000 average. Last year alone almost 9000.

Why are they dead set on going after the rifle?
What sense does that make?

I'll tell you why.

Government is not scared of the handguns. They are more scared of the rifle. The is more dangerous to a government intent on taking your rights, over any handgun that is the peoples problem.


The fact that it is the rifle they are going after, tells me it is nothing to do with gun violence in todays society. It is everything to do with taking more rights without fear.

Tell me again. What an illegal firearm is, when your right and my right to own any weapon it takes to suppress all forms of oppression, Shall not be infringed. Especially, by the very government that has the most power, ability and reason, to oppress the free people?
And yet, no one has taken your guns. Enough said. Next.

You post a lot of words but you say nothing. You're upset because I called you out and you can't handle it.

I can narrow a million choices down to one and say you still have a choice.

So, in your opinion, once YOU have spoken, the debate is over???? Typical liberal ARROGANCE. Listen up, bubba - the debate is NOT over. You're free to leave, however. We'll fill the vacuum somehow!

You called nobody out, you just made an empty accusation. Better luck next time.

That's interesting from someone who posts a lot but never actually says anything.

No one has taken your guns, end of discussion. Oh wait, what freedoms have you lost?
