We’ve never had such violence with these AR style guns. About time someone gets them off the streets. No decent hunter needs anything like this. You righties will cry about Democrats taking your guns until the end of time. GET OVER IT! People are fed up with all of these killings.

Well, once again, the 2nd amendment is not about hunting.

Well, data is data and your opinion is your opinion.


I know which one I'd lean on. Your choice is your own.

Someone so "important" that I can't place the quote, and so important that it was said "several years ago" and still hasn't come to fruition?


Not terribly impressive.

I agree, people are fed up with these shootings, and violence in general. Explain to me how banning a firearm by it's name , one that has been around for 50 years is going to help ? Up until last year, more people died from fists then rifles. 3 times more people died from knives than rifles. Why not focus on handguns, you know , the ones that are used much more ? I'm guessing you don't because the media and politicians haven't told you too.

Typical far lefty.

Doesn't hunt, expert on hunting.

Doesn't know firearms. Expert on firearms.

Doesn't know Constitution, doesn't care, spouts off anyway. Lumps all owners of any semi auto firearm in with mass shooters.

What's really not impressive is the constant denial that it means what she said. You can deny that she really meant it but it still was said.

And, as I mentioned earlier, living in Maryland has taught me to pay attention when a legislator says they're going to ban a certain type or style of firearm because it then happens.

A standard hunting shotgun loaded with buckshot fired into a crowd would be far deadlier than any rifle. Multiple projectiles and a spread compared to a single projectile.
