Let the gun bans begin...
This may do better in the political section, but it's intended to be shown to the folks who frequent this forum.

Whateva... They are just as easy to get as before they were banned. Stocking up for the zombie apocolypse!
Your safety is not my responsibility.

Wow,
Talk about a propoganda machine! Obama's going to take away our guns.
I like how they misconstrue the comments from a South Korean official about firearms accidents. The South Korean official commented that the US government objects to the sale of these rifles because they are old rifles (with a high probability of poor maintenance over the last 60+ years since being made) and that there is a high probability of increasing firearm mishaps (burst barrels, misfires). They are not talking about handling mishaps (which are the majority of accidents from the statistics the NRA is providing). If you have a 60+ year old gun with suspect maintenence, I would say there's a pretty good chance of the firearm malfunctioning in a way that can hurt or even kill someone.
As for the issue about them being in the hands of bad people, I agree that's kind of a BS arguement, but I suspect it has to do with the fact they are considered curios and relics, and thus not subject to the strict requirements of purchase as with modern firearms.

The South Koreans aren't stupid, and they have calenders.
These guns will come in under our next administration.
