If that's what you want to think, I guess you can, but it shows you have zero common sense on the subject, congrats, you must be proud and doing such a great job for your side.
If you call that childish, what do you call what Trump does in office and on twitter everyday? Curious minds would like to know?
Tip: Try and keep your criticisms consistent now, it builds character and maintains credibility.
AR-15 is a weapon of war and it should be banned. As long as we have gun owners constantly trying to explain away common sense, I will be out here constantly reminding folks like you what that weapon truly is and what it truly is designed to do and that is kill en mass.
Every firearm is a "weapon of war". I'd suggest coming up with your own argument instead of the blathering of the echo chamber...
What are you? The master of all things guns now?!?!? That's silly. I want a ban on AR-15's and like weapons because they are again weapons of war and do not need to be on our streets or in our communities. I can and will continue to single out AR-15's and similar weapons. If you don't like it, that's just too damn bad. There is incontrovertible evidence in the public space what these guns do in comparison to handguns. The NYT's piece quoted several highly skilled surgeons that explained to you the differences in what an AR-15 style assault rifle can do to the human body vs any handgun.
The NRA lobby with a few million loudmouth supporters should not be able to dictate to the rest of -- the majority of the country -- that AR-15's are no worse than a handgun. BS!
Nope, not a master, just logical. As for the above in red, yes, you want to ban all semi auto rifles.
As far as the NYT's article that you so much like to cling to, what if that AR was chambered in .22lr or a handgun caliber ? You are aware that they can be. That is why your argument is flawed. You ignore facts, except the ones you've cherry picked.
Now if you had stated that you want all semi auto rifles , with certain calibers , banned , referring to the NYT article then I understand.
No one is asking you to change your mind. Just take the knowledge than page after page of posters have supplied you and add it to your argument. You would at least have ground to stand on.
For instance, if you had stated that you would like any semi auto mag fed center fired rifle , chambered in .223 up to .50 Beowulf , and any handgun calibers 9mm and up, banned. Along with any magazine that can accept 5 rounds or more. That makes complete sense, and is logical. Banning something because of it's name and looks is just asinine. I think you are starting to get it though, since I've seen you add "and similar weapons" to your statements. Although you really don't know what it means.
Just because the media and yourself label a rifle a "weapon of war" or an "assault rifle" doesn't make it so.
Awww, did my last response hurt your feelings?
It is my opinion and apparently Trump's dumbass agrees more with me than you since he wants to take guns first and give due process second. Let's start with that AR-15! BANISH IT!!!!

They are meant/designed to kill en mass, not for hunting as gun owners like to claim which is a ludicrous argument on its face. Its an assault weapon that must be removed from our streets. Plain and simple. All the other measures will not stop these mass shootings. Until we address the heart of the issue, which is guns, this will not stop. It will only get worse.

To hold strong opinions on that which you are uninformed is the height of foolishness. You are certainly displaying that trait.

The NRA isn't the one shouting your uninformed message of "banish and ban".

Yep, childish, that's what you do....It's great what trump does everyday, it irritates you and other so much you have to have safe spaces so they can cry and hug each other...
Tip: Learn what your argument is to show you know what your talking about, which in this case you clearly do not.

Looks like Dicks's Sporting Goods police might have created a unintended consequence, there's a 20-year old Oregon man who sues Wal-Mart and Dick's Sporting Goods for age discrimination. A 20-Year-Old Oregon Man Sues Walmart and Dick
