Those pesky facts are sure hard to get around. The worse mass shooting have all happened in the last 6 months. All used with AR-15's. Why is that you think? Why are killers opting for an AR-15?

That doesn't state your position. I'll ask again. Should you or I be able to step foot on white house grounds with an AR-15 and have a chat with POTUS? If not, why not. If so, why?

Didn't they do the same after Newtown, and then quietly began selling them again after things settled down.


They will still sell you .223/5.56 however.

Honestly, I haven't thought about it. I only care about myself.

But I think if Trump has no body guards, maybe he would be open to that idea ( at least, he has a fighting chance of survival) If he has no bodyguards, he should carry a gun himself.

Forgot to add, If he has no bodyguards, then he shouldn't open white house (aka his home) to the visitors. Will you open your house everyday to total strangers?

I think this is the way we should go. Simultaneously, the left wants to infringe on Constitutional Rights by passing unConstitutional laws while advocating that illegal aliens be able to violate federal law, at will.

Either we ALL have to obey laws, or NONE of us do.

I own a gun, yes. AR-15 is a weapon of war meant/designed to maximum loss of life as rapidly as possible. Its not called an assault weapon for no reason.

Sure, as long as SS is there, why not?

The Fed Gov completes its own studies. I posted a link to a Chicago Trib article citing one earlier in this thread.
