Disarming: Taking arms away.
Regulating: Establishing rules of ownership of arms.
Regulations aimed at banning arms or certain accessories are the same as disarming. Requiring a person not be a violent felon to buy a gun is a logical regulation to a point (not that it will stop the felon), banning a standard capacity magazine be it the 12 rounders in my CZ82 or the standard 20 to 30 rounders for an AR is not acceptable.
Texas doesn't ban the ownership of any type of gun. They have rules governing how guns are carried and used, but no bans.
It regulates them. But you've already pointed out that there is no distinction to be made between regulations and disarmament. However, I do see that you may not want to stick with that previous argument of yours (for now) since it wouldn't make sense here.

I understand the right wing mind well.
The regulations you gun grabbers are proposing are bans, not rules against shooting someone or a felon carrying concealed.
Some gun nut gave me a quote from Madison that supports gun control:
"That the people have a right to bear arms for the defence of themselves and their own state, or the United States, or for the purpose of killing game; and no law shall be passed for disarming the people or any of them, unless for crimes committed, or real danger of public injury from individuals; and as standing armies in the time of peace are dangerous to liberty, they ought not to be kept up: and that the military shall be kept under strict subordination to and be governed by the civil powers."""-- James Madison
Hmm, you think maybe enlightenedt thinker, scholar, and statesman James Madison would side with sensible gun controls or bunker dwelling right wing gun fetish clowns?
"bunker dwelling right wing gun fetish clowns?[/quote"
Do you really think people will take anything you say seriously, with language like this?
