Here Is the Place, if any on this forum, for Gun Discussion

[packs]

What point? That something that occurred in the past occurred in the past? What are you even saying? My point is that today a person can waltz into a store and buy an AR-15 legally without hassle. That's what I'm trying to change. You keep bringing up the past. What does that have to do with increasing gun restrictions and banning the sale of certain types of weapons? I'm concerned with how easy it is to buy guns, not with the fact that people have bought guns before.

Like I said before, it's impossible for you to have anything pertinent or constructive to say.

Again with the stupid rhetoric, but no answers. Okay, let's say that is changed. Let's say that ALL guns are banned. You got your way. Now, what do you do about the ones already in the hands of individuals? What is to keep those out of the hands of the bad guys?

You're the only one talking about banning all guns. It has no place in the discussion, which is centered around banning the sales of assault weapons previously banned, while not restricting your access to other types of weapons.

Obviously if you obtain a weapon illegally, you'd suffer the same consequences. So again, what is your point?

Ok, let me rephrase then...

Let's say Congress drafts a bill today that bans all assault weapons. The bill hits the president's desk tonight and he signs it into law. Tomorrow, the sell of assault weapons is banned.

Now, what do you do about the ones already in the hands of individuals? What is to keep those out of the hands of the bad guys?

I'm not asking to be the person in charge of setting law or repercussions for breaking a law. I am advocating change. That's something you neither acknowledge nor understand. And once again, your theoretical and off base situations have nothing to do with the reality that anyone can waltz into a store today and buy an AR-15 unchecked. That AR-15 killed 14 people yesterday, a gun similar to it murdered children at Sandy Hook. Both were purchased legally. Enough is enough.

Since your full name is not in your post as per board rules, you will henceforth be referred to as IDIOT. IDIOT, I acknowledge and understand the change you are advocating. You want to prevent anyone from waltzing into a store and buying an AR-15 unchecked. Correct, IDIOT? Yes, correct, so I do understand and acknowledge IDIOT's point.

So, IDIOT, an assault weapon ban would prevent that, would it not, IDIOT? Now, IDIOT, what about the ones that are already in the hands of individuals? Do we let them keep them? Do we confiscate them? What do we do about them, IDIOT?

IDIOT, if you want to continue this conversation, grow some balls and put your full name in your post. Quit hiding behind your keyboard, IDIOT.

What do prior gun sales have to do with preventing future sales of the same gun? How are they related? I'm talking about limiting abilities to buy guns tomorrow, not trying to change the past. Nothing you're saying is on topic and as usual you have devolved into name calling. Classic move.
