But I don't think that sort of logic works on turning people around. They're more like Pandora, hopelessly trying to put human suffering back inside the box. If only we could just make gun technology go away.

Even if we could, you still can be killed by the sword. And unless you're trained to use a sword, it's pretty useless for slf defence.

But they think having less efficient weaponry will somehow reduce the suffering. That unarmed people would have a better chance against a sword than a gun.

They probably say that now, but then they will start coming for your knives.

Then spoons.

While you were out banging chicks...

I’m not reading all the text so this mighta been answered but is the AK47 a semi auto? Because you could argue that they were using the semi auto version of an AR but that doesn’t seem to be the point and I’m confused

Suppose it’s a bunch of phooey either way though

Assault rifles have full auto. Semi auto only versions exist of many rifles but they are not assault rifles

A real AK47 is full-auto and hasn't really been manufactured in decades, but most AK derivatives in civilian hands are semi-auto. In America, they tend to be WASR clones

I see, so we could assume that they were using one of those even though it’s disingenuous as all the AK’s in media of all sorts are the full auto versions.

I think the AKM is the modern derivative anyway. There's a lot of AK variants and they all kind of look the same so the media will just call all of them AK47s

I like how the AK shoots an order of magnitude more slowly than the AR even though they have the same type of action

It’s the same with AR-15. That’s a specific rifle. Most ARs are actually just “AR pattern rifles”

`I like how the AK shoots an order of magnitude more slowly than the AR even though they have the same type of action`
What are you smoking?

the picture above

What are THEY smoking?

BBC so probably guardian articles

I also don't think they have the same type of action, but that's nitpicking

The same action only insofar as they are both technically gas-piston operated.

The AR used in the picture there must have a bullet button though - makes all the bullets come out at once

Can't wait to see how this gets meme'd into oblivion like the USA Today thing

It boggles the mind, how some people can have such a stupid understanding of the law.

I'm usually against victimless crimes, but I at least know that's not how it works

Yeah, but having had a broken fender damage my car after dislodging on the highway, I have no issues with people getting tickets for not repairing broken vehicle equipment.

ticket the fuck out of them

also don't thinkw e don't see that pewdiepie video

@Nucleon how else will I get my alt right nationalist Nazi propaganda?

@Agent Smith I think there’s a bigger risk that her face may turn young men gay. Imagine Angela being the first non relative woman’s face you’ve ever seen
