Its just semi auto rifles. I think, could be semi auto handguns too its a bit unclear. BTW I had a bolt action .22 when I was 12.
Yah I just don't think it will solve the issue at large, just a VERY small percentage of it, maybe. Its like "ohhh my hand is going gangrene, up to my wrist, let me cut off a finger see if that works"
I didn't mean to be hostile, just tired of seeing the scare tactic used to strip people of rights. I also don't like it when Pro Lifers call people baby murders. I don't agree with Pro Lifers nor those tactics.
It also mandates safe storage. But the actual problem is people and attitudes.
I store mine safely, safes and lockers bolted down, when my state doesn't mandate it. I do that already for safety, but it has draw backs. If a burgler got into my house when I was asleep, I'd have to go to them first. Solution, invest in a small safe to keep at nightstand area.
Funny thing, my state keeps trying to pass a law to make gun safes and gun lockers tax free, under $500. It's an attempt to incentivise good storage. Democrats in my state always vote against it. Makes me wonder if they really care about safety of people that exercise their right or just hate them all and would want them banned all together.
It gives a clear definition. I might not agree with it, but it proves that some antis listen to the pro arguments.
Yes it's clear answer. They are specific, but they should drop the word "assault" from it and say what they really mean, a semi-autmatic long gun ban. Assault puts a bias on it saying it's only used to attack. It can be used to defend as well. Could say a Semi auto defense rifle would work too, but even people defending themselves would still have to assault with a counter attack. It's terrible and shouldn't have a verb on it. Semi-auto rifle ban. That's what they should name it. They probably could still win getting the proposal through if enough sheep don't think about it.
but mostly, I was wondering if Vic had an answer to what he meant by "military style assault weapon" =/
Good chat, I apologize if I came out too harsh and offended you. Was not my intent.
