Assault weapons
-
Assault weapons need to be illegal, period. Let's at least start there. And no, it's not a slippery slope, at least I hope not.
Everyone is born right handed. Only the strongest overcome it. Fight for left-handed rights and hand equality.

The difference is we have the Constitution that allows the right to own guns. So, yes, as I stated it could be a slippery slope but because of the Constitution, I don't think it actually would be.

We had laws that allowed people to own guns. What's the difference? Oh right...constitutions can't be amended so the second amendment can't ever be undone :doh:

Not own guns... but rather bear arms. Consider the difference between a gun (sporting/hunting) and arms (military weapons). Just saying, you are redefining the Constitution for your own agenda and thinking that is not a slippery sloe. The same thing is being done with Freedom of Religion being redefined, and even Freedom of Speech.

How so? And I'll pay you $100 if you can tell me what my agenda is. :doh:

I think that if the 18th century constitution writers could have foresee the kind of weapons we have to day and mass shootings, the second amendment would probably be very different, if there at all.

It's OK if I disagree with you, right? I'm OK if you disagree with me.

It's not about agreeing or disagreeing, it's about what is factually correct. You seem to be implying that because it is in the constitution it can't be undone. I'm simply tell you that is wrong. Nothing to do with opinions. The prohibition of alcohol was a constitutional amendment which was then undone by a subsequent one.

No such thing as an "assault weapon". And of course, you're wrong about both banning them, and that it won't be a slippery slope.

The Constitution doesn't allow anything. It's purpose was to limit the powers of the federal government. The states wouldn't ratify the Constitution unless certain rights were enumerated (again, these rights are intended to limit the federal government).

Explain further.

Even if it is, would you rather continue to have more mass shootings then? Do you have a solution? What is more likely, that our government will turn on its citizens or that another mass shooting will take place?

It would definitely be there but possibly altered some.

Contrary to popular belief among far-right, gun-nuts conservatives, gun control is not about removing the second amendment or to take away their guns. This has been explained a lot.

OK? Was this a reply to my comment? I'm not seeing the connection.
