So their wonderful leader proposed an assault weapon and high capacity magazine ban today. Guess the second amendment is allowed to be tossed aside when the president is a democrat.

Glad Canada is moving to give gun owners their rights back.

The 2nd amendment was put in there for the purpose of maintaining a militia to protect the US from the British. When it was written, they didn't have weapons that would fire off a 60 round clip in less than 30 seconds. They had a musket that would fire off 1 round in that time, if you were a fast re-loader. I understand the 2nd amendment as a person may have a weapon in order to defend themselves, their family and property. Do you need military grade weapons to do that? Unless the US gets invaded again, no. I believe it is people's right to own a rifle or shotgun for hunting purposes, and protection purposes, but anything more than that is overkill. I like to see them banning assault weapons and high capacity mags.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, this video has been making the rounds about inaccuracies in reporting the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings. makes you wonder anyways....

So the whole town is in on this? Or are all the families of the victims new to town so no one knows them? About as likely as the 911 conspiracy. Too many people involved to keep it quiet.

I totally agree, but can't seem to find a place online to buy a drone. Is that something I should get in person at the store?

Don't forget Obama also wants armor piercing shells banned to the gun owners as well. Give me one good reason why anyone would need an armor piercing shell if they are not in law enforcement or the military. Many names........?:noidea:

You're delusional if you think that the American people could stand up to it's military. Even if they have Civil war cannons and WWII era tanks LOL.

Read My Sig! I don't see any mention in the the 2nd amendment that says it ever runs out or that it is firearms specific.

Shoot em in the head then? Armor piercing shells?:rolleyes:

To be honest I don't agree with AP shells in civilian hands, but I don't like the idea of banning and restricting firearms.

It's proven that in places where firearms are more restricted violent crime goes up.

AP shells will go through body armor but it does very little damage. Hollow points do a lot more damage, but won't go through body armor.
