Assault Weapons?

... also wondering if some of these parents are starting to like the limelight.

I'm sure they would rather have their kids alive and not have the limelight.

It should be noted some of the Sandy Hooks parents that lost children do not support tighter gun control and have not become part of the dog and pony show. I don't see them being used as a pawn to further an agenda.

This "it's for the kids" is bullshit. Not one of the proposed laws would have done anything to stop Sandy Hooks. The firearms were legally owned by the mother and were obtained by killing the mother and stealing the guns.

Will the price of ammo come back to reality now?

Although I must admit, I went through my stockpile and sold 1340 rounds of Malaysian 5.56 mil spec (circa 1981) for $700 and 4000 rounds of American Eagle 22LR for $400. I couldn't believe it. I had people from New York to Cal calling me wanting me to ship it to them. No need to, plenty of people with cash right here.

Prices have dropped some but not a lot. I have helped my grandpa sell a ton of ammo. Probably 15,000 rounds of 9mm, 5000 or .223 & 7.62. We just sold another case of .223 for $525. He still has a fair amount left of 9mm, 223, 7.62 & 22LR

I read it... anther rant by someone that is clueless about firearms telling us what is the best way to weaken the Second Aamendment and say they are not actually attacking the Second Amendment. He also proposed nothing new or old that would have stopped the recent madmen.

And what about the title of his entire argument? "Enough! Nobody Wants to Take Away Your Damn Guns!".... Does he mean "at least not yet?" Because many in the Democratic Party do want our guns. Senator Feinstein stated very clearly that she would like to require full confiscation of all “assault weapons” in the US.

So the old statement that no one is coming for your guns — used to be true. With the 1994 “assault weapons” ban, the Democrats successfully split American gun owners down the middle by isolating hunters. Only the evil “black rifles” were banned, and traditional hunting rifles were exempt at the time.

“No one is coming for your guns” was used to great effect to pacify hunters and keep them from opposing the assault weapons ban. It was brilliant propaganda, that Democrats seem to have adopted almost as well as “think of the children!” when proposing ill-conceived or stupid laws.

But the problem is, it’s no longer true. “Hunting rifles” have evolved to be indistinguishable from “assault weapons.” They have the same features, and use the same designs. And the removal of a grandfather clause from the proposed legislation can only mean that full-scale confiscation is in the offing. They are, indeed, coming to take away our guns. Even the “hunting rifles.” And those who are still trying to pass off that old lie are ignorant of the proposed legislation.

Well, I only read about half. Guess that makes me a centrist.

A very well-written article, at least at the start he has a lot of legitimate points to make about the demonization of guns and gun guys by liberals. And he writes coherently for several more paragraphs. It is refreshing to see a pro-gun person talk intelligently about the REAL issue, the divide between the pro- and anti- entrenched positions.

And then he slowly works himself into a froth, repeating the same old arguments ad nauseum and demonizing those who disagree with him. Same old, same old...


"The rift is already beginning. We must mend fences...Now.
Sleeping dragons and terrible resolve
I do not want to live through a war in my own backyard. I do not want our children to grow up in such an America, either. So anti-gunners: Please stop, I beg you. See the writing on the wall before it’s too late."

Yes, we must mend fences. Of course any shooting war that starts on the issue is the lib-tard's fault, right? Not such a good way to mend fences, threatening armed rebellion over laws that will not get passed and, if passed, will not survive review by the Supremes.

But such is the paranoiac rantings of the hoplaphilic.

@ratagonia, i hate to look up the definition of a word before i can understand the post (hoplaphilics). well i can't even find that it is a word to begin with.

[denaliguide]

the whole "we don't object to hunting rifles" is just wrong. anyone who thinks the 2nd amendment was written to protect hunting rifles is wrong. it was written to protect the people from a tyrannical government.

(might have helped if I had spelled it correctly).

The word was, more or less, coined by a Gun Guy. Wellllllll, he coined the word Hoplophobia for those with an irrational fear of guns...

Hoplophiliac might be the better spelling.
