History Boy. No one cares about your history. We care about children getting SLAUGHTERED by ASSAULT RIFLE-15's.

More children have been killed by ASSAULT RIFLE-15s than any other gun.

Ban it !

The AR in AR 15 doesn't mean assault rifle you idiot.

Ask California where you have to have a special license to buy an AR-15 or one of it's derivatives.

Yes and everyone that is into this, or similar threads knows that.

What you don't seem to know is, that the civilian semi-auto AR-15 owns it's existence to the fact of having been specifically developed for the US Army as a fully auto ASSAULT rifle. So its a Military ASSAULT rifle with a semi-auto function for civilian usage. Place a bump stock onto it, or a trigger assist device, and it again becomes a fully auto ASSAULT rifle with a fitting company designation.

Where did I state - I want ALL semi-auto weapons to be banned? - you are deliberately starting to make things up.

dead is fucking dead - that all you gotta say to masshootings conducted with an AR-15?

And as usual dead is fucking dead - people- like you avoid the question:
Feel free to tell me when the last mass shooting/murder was done in the USA with an AK-47? or if you prefer with a M-16, SG550, a Tar-21, a G-3 or a G-36, etc. etc.
or an M1 Carbine.
I am waiting....waiting....wai....

I'm not avoiding the question.

Tell me if you ban one rifle and mass shooters just start using a different rifle you'll be calling for a ban on that rifle next then when mass shooters use yet another firearm you'll call for a ban on that one next etc.

BTW, politeness, and good manners dictate, that someone answers a given question first - BEFORE coming up with own questions.

So answer my question - and you will receive my answer onto your question:

Most mass shootings in this country are done with handguns. There's your fucking answer so why aren't you whining about banning handguns?

So you aren't really interested in actual facts.

Most mass shootings are committed with HANDGUNS not rifles.

You go after the one that is the best at it. No other rifle or handgun can compete with the AR-15 in a combat situation. And if you think that a mass shooting isn't a combat situation you have never been in any combat yourself. What is going on is that the AR has become a cult where it's the weapon of choice for school, theater and church shootings because it's capable of a very, very high body count.

So they change to a SW handgun of any kind. The body count is down and some things are beyond our control. But the AR is within our control. And your argument is a mute point.

High body counts are done by the AR. You need to break the cult so that maybe the shooter picks a less damaging weapon like your handgun. And it's all about the cult and the body count.
