Don't worry. You can still pick me and nothing bad will happen to you.
I think you would be making a very unwise decision. Your choice.

You can own a gun.

You don’t need an assault shotgun designed for the military.

Only gun nuts feel they have to have that anyway.

Whether or not the state pays anything is irrelevant if I'm not agreeing to the contract.

It's just the state attempting to justify coercion and theft with my own tax dollars.

People can't just go buy one. They are already effectively banned and highly regulated by the NFA, and 1986 auto weapons ban. What do you want to do? Ban it some more? This is not a problem.

You are obviously ignorant of the current Gun Laws already on the books. Get educated.

1. It's not the Bill of Needs.

2. All types of guns were originally designed for military use.

3. Pump shotguns have been used by the military since WWI.......

4. Who made you the arbiter of what anyone else needs?

My lords what a vicious and incredibly deadly weapon! The AA12 ('auto assault' 12) quite clearly is a military-only weapon. It looks to me to be even more powerful than an AR-15, which used to be considered the most powerful weapon in the world. Like the AR 15 this is an assault weapon--it's right there in its initials.

We had a mass shooting in Seattle in the Capitol Hill neighborhood about 13 years ago. The shooter used a similar assault-style shotgun. Six were killed, and two were wounded.

Uhhhh, what?

Ahh......

So it's ok for the police and the military to engage in "the mass slaughter of Innocents" ?

If that's it's "only purpose" then we'd have to assume that that's what the police and the military would do with it.

A non-answer.

Thought so.

Innocent victims, living and dead, thank you for your support.
