I like the term "modern assault weapons". I like to ask people, "How would you feel if you were told you couldn't own modern automobiles... like the 1947 Packard." _____________________________________________________ Sliced bread, the greatest thing since the 1911. | |||

Regarding the argument from antis that the founding fathers couldn't have possibly envisioned the existence of an AR or AK, I say that's complete bullshit. I think you could hand one of the founders one of those rifles and they would immediately grasp the improvements over say a musket, and recognize that it's still just a rifle. However, I think they'd likely be totally aghast if I were to stand them in front of my big-screen TV, shown them hollywood horror, hollywood sex, hollywood violence, and then follow it up some hardcore FPS gaming, followed up with a nice tour of the most explicit, vile and poisonous videos the web has to offer... I think they'd be much more likely to want to repeal/rewrite the 1st Amendment than the 2nd after seeing what we've done with our "freedom of speech." (not that I'm in any way arguing for restrictions on the 1st) | |||

Scalia already disposed of the argument in District of Columbia v. Heller. If you want to watch an anti's eyes glaze over, apply the same line to *gasp* Twitter or Facebook. The Founding Fathers never envisioned a type of publicly accessible media that could broadcast a message world-wide instantaneously. Does that mean one does not have 1st amendment rights unless using only voice or through ink or movable-type presses? | |||

I don't think these people are fond of the first either. _______________________________ Do the interns get Glocks? | |||

I like to play with them... "So you're saying if Washington and the continental army / militia had AR-15's available to them, they wouldn't have used them against the British?  _____________________________________________________ Sliced bread, the greatest thing since the 1911. | |||

How about changing the nomenclature to SR-15 for Sporting Rifle? Then the other side can refer to them as "Scary Rifles".

Years ago a journalist in the local rag reported on a shooting. He/she apparently talked w/ cops about evidence at the scene because the resulting story proclaimed that two guns were used. A S&W pistol and the other, a full auto! in calibur .32. It took me a couple seconds to realize the cops must have recovered casings in .40S&w and .32acp. From that point on I've come to believe nothing I read in the news, no matter the subject. | |||

'course, you all know that "acp" stands for "Automatic Commando Pistol". Right! Right? "I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . . That’s the only way to pay back part of that vast debt, to live up to and try to fulfill that tremendous obligation."
