I said:I further reject your assumption that I argue from ignorance or dishonesty.You then argue from ignorance, dishonesty or both - given you changed the term I used, its likely both,.I reject the premise that handguns with semi automatic firing systems and high capacity clips are strictly defensive weapons.
Given that, you cannot possibly have a sound position in this regard.
Never mind the fact that banning handguns violates the constituion - period.
The bans curremntly under consideration do not ban 'assault weapons' as you define them. Why do you support those bans?And I do support all efforts to ban assault weapons.
You said:Aside from the fact that hanguns w/ hi-cap magazines are purposely designed for self-defense
As you changed the terms of the coversation away from the statement I made to the position want to take, you have engaged in dishonest debate; in the process, you allow my statement to stand, undiminished.I reject the premise that handguns with semi automatic firing systems and high capacity clips are strictly defensive weapons.
And here, you argue from emotion and ignorance - proving yet again that anti-gun loons can only argue from emotion, ignorance and dishonesty.If I agreed with you, I would not only have no standing in an honest debate, but I'd abandon all rational thought and stick my head in the sand to ignore gun violence while maintaining that guns are just too damn cool.
Also, because of your dishonesty, you refused to, twice, addrewss this question:
The bans curremntly under consideration do not ban 'assault weapons' as you define them. Why do you support those bans?
Don't worry -- I don't expect an honest answer.
