Fine. Call it what you want, unfortunately it did an effective job at carrying out an "assault" on a bunch of innocent civilians.

Most people are FOR reasonable laws that, when enforced will make a difference, NOT frivolous laws that won't.
have fun with yourself I consider this matter closed from my end!
All I am saying is where I consider my line for laws are are different than yours, so by my standards, yes you do want less laws because where I want to see it sits much higher than yours because I would like it to check everyone and limit the availability of much more dangerous guns and ammunition clips. You just don't have any real solution other than more guns in people's hands which means easier ways to obtain guns which means less laws or laws that make it easier to acquires guns. That is the opposite of what I want.

Outside of your gun club, that is considered an assault weapon.

No, it just means more people should get CCW permits... by their own volition. He's said OVER AND OVER AGAIN that he doesn't want any change in the laws. How is this so hard to understand?

The military does not use high capacity clips because they're NOT good at killing more people. They jam, they're heavy, they get in your way... Far better to just practice reloading a few times and be able to reload smaller magazines more quickly.

You seem to forget that the shooters terrifying drum magazine jammed, rendering the entire gun useless since he didn't have any other magazines...

Dude, seriously, read his posts. He doesn't want easier access. And sometimes fewer and harder isn't the best idea either.

Yes he did. SERIOUSLY. READ OUR POSTS.

Because laws make big differences in some areas, less in others. This is one in which laws have been proven to not make much of a difference.

Wrong.

Only because they don't know what an assault weapon is...

Holy crapola. This is getting pointless. You're not paying us any attention at all are you?

WE
DID
NOT
ADVOCATE
FEWER
LAWS

It seems you have no real solution other than taking guns out of law-abiding citizens' hands.

Bloomberg is anti everything. He reminds me of a kid that was bullied in school and who became a rich man with a childish attitude and now takes his past out on everyone else.

I just heard on the news that if you are a female an carrying condoms in nyc you can be accused of being a prostitute.

So what next if you have a lic or permit to carry a gun does this mean you are going to kill someone?

Lets hope the next NYC Mayor brings back the FUN NYC.

It might help to know WHAT you're talking about before insisting you have the answers!

Tell me, which of these, if any should be legal or illegal:

1.
2.

3.

4.

5.

Please list the number and answer for each...

except for the ruger 10/22 on top if left as semi auto they are all not legal for cosmetic reasons in nyc. whether they are semi auto or full auto does not matter in nyc as they are scarey and can't be registered.

the 10-22t on top can be converted to full auto but its not legal if you do it.

the rest of the country you could own them as long as they arent full auto. then you need a special permit if they are.
