NRA, if they had the power, probably should push or have pushed for a wrongful death case against the officer. It is not ridiculous as in more gun unfriendly states, cops treat gun owners like criminals even when legally carrying. Doing bs like demanding the weapon so they can either put it on the back of the car or even dismantle it entirely which just introduces the weapon into the situation for no reason.
It's also 2 very different eras
more than that, paris would die pennyless and in debt if she had to make her own way.
her money isnt her own
That "Adam" guy is a fucking moron
Drowning in the leftist kool-aid
So apparently in NJ they changed the magazine limit in the state from 15 to 10 and you have to destroy any 11+ round magazines you own or you're committing a felony by possessing the magazine, it has been upheld at the lower court level as constitutional too
I find it funny how tim lives in NJ but he's not against further gun control because one fudd he talked to at the range said so
Losing your rights over a 11+ round magazine you legally purchased is bullshit, this is making no one safer
I'm with Styx on Guns....
he said that in the 19th century there was less gun crime because everyone had one.
And I really loathe "signal politics", that does somethings to show they did something, even if it is horseshit
and makes no sense
but they did something
If they really wanted to do something about Gun Crime, they have to allow racial profiling and the police to be racist.
but they're so afraid of that, that they let the blacks kill each other and other people as well, because they don't want to look racist.
lol I'm pretty sure lots of american cops racially profile already, even if it's unofficial
if you're gonna start just locking up every mildly suspicious black person then you're also gonna have to overhaul the prison system. otherwise you're just ensuring repeat criminals like america has already.
I mean, I'm not really against a more prevalent gun culture; it certainly does create some pretty solid obstacles for would-be criminals, but _just_ locking up more black people for that reason alone is fucking retarded
You're absolutely right, "black Culture" is the real problem. and that we let it come to this
2/3rds of gun deaths are suicides, it's people choosing to take their own lives
Suicide rates are higher in places like s korea and japan and they have extremely strict gun laws, the gun "buyback" that dems love to point at in australia had an insignificant effect on suicide rates
Most gun homicides are gang related as far as i know
Only about 2-3% of gun deaths are accidental
Dems are bending over backwards trying to erode rights over a statistically insignificant issue
Instead of trying to limit what guns or magazines you can own, they could try mental health programs to lower suicide rates, after school programs or internship opportunities to keep kids out of gangs, maybe even have gun education in health class to reduce accidental gun deaths
At least we have this going for us, people are getting fed up with gun control
The more the ar15 is demonized and misrepresented in media the more people will buy them
All democrats need is to stop trying to ban guns, ammo, and gun accessories and they could get a bunch of votes
The republican party is nothing without its single issue voters
Isn't Armaligth 15 the Standard anyway??
doesn't everyone have one that owns a gun??
just about
Not everyone, but the sunsetting of the 1994 assault weapons ban made the platform very popular
Go to a rifle range and most guns there will probably be ARs or AKs
The most popular class of gun is handguns though
1 in every 5 guns sold is an ar15 iirc
Also several states ban the ar15, it could be more popular than it is now if not for that
The AR15 is a cheap semi automatic rifle chambered in a round that's viable for self defense, has been banned in the past federally and some states right now, and is demonized by the media
Problem is: The Bad Guys will get their hands on a rifle anyway, so that only leaves the good guys without a gun
Not even that, in the US we have the 2nd amendment
that as well...
but look at Charlie Hebdo. Weren't they murdered with a fully automatic rifle?
If you are anti gun you either have to somehow limit gun rights without technically infringing upon it or modify/repeal the amendment which is much more difficult than getting activist judges in the courts
Not sure about that particular incident but im not surprised, in countries with strict gun laws there's no reason not to have full auto guns for use in crime
