oh and... 2A is not an argument in either direction for me (no, it does not matter pro - no, it does not matter that the AR-15 is not explicitly mentioned by name)
Wat
What if someone who is disabled is attacked by someone who has 50+ lbs on them and is extremely fit? Should they let someone kill them because that person doesn't have a gun and it should be a fair fight?
well the argument i had was , cars are regulated, therefore why can't guns be, i mentioned 2A, they said not an argument... iwas like.. well f this...
I just want to point out that the law does not differentiate between different kinds of deadly weapons in the US. So realistically if someone is coming at you with a deadly weapon then use of a firearm is justified.
cars aren't in the constitution
Guns are called 'the great equalizer' for a reason. Woman have good reason to fear a violent man, and a violent man has good reason to fear an armed woman.
plain and simple
^lol i mentioned that, they said not an argument so i gave up on that site being idiots..
why is debate in slowmode, is it really needed @JDM_WAAAT
Yeah the idea of equal force discounts the notion of unequal efficacy in violent conflict
!slowmode 5
**<#463068752725016579>** is now in *s l o w m o t i o n*. Regular users can only post once every 5 seconds or so.
(Suggestion, type `!slowmode off` when you want things to be normal again)
i hate the "what if an old disabled impoverished grandma has to defend herself" - i would not trust such a person with a gun ๐
When someone chooses to attack someone else outside of the ring they're giving up on any notion of civility or a fair fight
At what point in getting my face smashed in by a trained dude twice my size am I allowed to start using a gun?
it punishes people like me that type multiple lines to make them easy to read instead of one long line...
Lol but they do use them responsibly
slow mode is on so that people actually type out what they want to say instead of just spamming multiple lines
it's only down to 5 seconds now
@@I AM ERROR Who said the person has to have dementia? I am disabled, should I just role over and die if someone wants to harm me?
yeah that should work, I guess.. better ๐
Miss America 1945 iirc defended herself a few years back with a snub nosed pistol
basically, encourage people to put more thought into what they're saying
DONT PUNISH ME FOR QUICK THOUGHT AND TYPING ๐
A little old lady isn't going to get the upper hand against a 30 something fit dude
^unless they have a firearm
If she were a real man she'd beat him in fisticuffs
Aye but that's the point
well my idea is this, get rid of the NFA stamps, if i want a howitzer, i should be able to buy a howitzer...
Can you not?
There are private citizens who own tanks and AA guns
it's no longer considered small arms....
@Schedrevka no, you should defend yourself to the degree allowed by law
Takes a higher class license to own stuff like that if I'm not mistaken
I'd rather live than follow the law tbh
well, you need nfa stamp for the artillery then you need nfa stamps for each of the rounds :V
In Maine
17-A M.R.S.A. ยง 2(9) Dangerous weapon: A. "Use of a dangerous weapon" means the use of a firearm or other weapon, device, instrument, material or substance, whether animate or inanimate, which, in the manner it is used or threatened to be used is capable of producing death or serious bodily injury. B. "Armed with a dangerous weapon" means in actual possession, regardless of whether the possession is visible or concealed, of: (1) A firearm; (2) Any device designed as a weapon and capable of producing death or serious bodily injury; or (3) Any other device, instrument, material or substance, whether animate or inanimate, which, in the manner it is intended to be used by the actor, is capable of producing or threatening death or serious bodily injury. For purposes of this definition, the intent may be conditional. C. When used in any other context, "dangerous weapon" means a firearm or any device designed as a weapon and capable of producing death or serious bodily injury.
So firearm is equivalent to a knife for the purposes of that law. Also depending on intent could equal a vehicle.
since the round are in of itself a DD
well i am in kommiefornia, where sheet metal is considered a firearm :V
oh... disclaimer: i'm not from the US so i have different perspective by default
