??????????????????????

Liberal ignorance.

Of course, you don't realize that the most widely owned rifle in America is the AR-15, which liberals call a rifle "meant for a battlefield".

Don't even try to suggest that liberals are not for gun control; such a contention is absurd. I guess you forgot about Biden telling everyone to "use a shotgun"!

Such complete utter liberal BS.

Gee...... and here I thought all libs wanted militias infiltrated and banned by the FBI. Now you are for them?

If you really want that, I guess all of us conservatives could just form militias if that would make you happy.

Thanks. I really don't remember ever hearing that. When I think of Japan and WWII, I think of Hawaii.

a Rifle is a particular type of gun and an AR 15 is a particular type of rifle that has multiple sub categories.

what you are actually saying when you claim its the most widely owned of a subset is that it is 3% of all guns and that 3% is actually a combination of 34 different guns.

No, you made a false claim and were called out on it.


Here's a link...........John Paul Stevens

I posted a list of them earlier i this thread. But how about just this one from Biden?
