kudos to judge benitez, well said.

A federal judge in the Southern District of California ruled late on Friday that California’s controversial “assault weapons” ban is unconstitutional.

“This case is not about extraordinary weapons lying at the outer limits of Second Amendment protection,” Judge Roger T. Benitez wrote. “The banned ‘assault weapons’ are not bazookas, howitzers, or machineguns. Those arms are dangerous and solely useful for military purposes. Instead, the firearms deemed ‘assault weapons’ are fairly ordinary, popular, modern rifles. This is an average case about average guns used in average ways for average purposes.”
“One is to be forgiven if one is persuaded by news media and others that the nation is awash with murderous AR-15 assault rifles. The facts, however, do not support this hyperbole, and facts matter,” Benitez continued.
read it all, it's excellent.

Most people who are hot for an "assault weapons ban" know next to nothing about guns. You could put a .22 rifle made to look like an M-16 on a table with an M-1 Garand and ask them, "Which of these weapons is should be banned? Which one is truly dangerous?" They'll pick the .22 over the Garand 10/10 times.

Even more funny, most liberals won't be able to understand your post, not being familiar with anything you just said. THey don't know what a Garand is. They don't know what a .22 is. You might as well be talking Mandarin to them.



Just you watch. One of them will Google both items so they can come back here and say "oh yeah buddy? I know what a Garand is." Yeah, after you looked it up.

As I've said before, every now and then a ray of sunshine pierces through the murky clouds of pollution.

Dad has an awesome .22 rifle that he bought from Walmart for $100. It only holds 5-10 rounds maybe, but it will fire as fast as I can pull the trigger, or at the same rate that I can fire my AR-15.

But that .22 is fun as hell to pick off targets.

Ah yes, the M1 Garand. The only time a liberal correctly uses the term "clips".
