I am a gun owner, a CCW permit holder, an airborne infantryman for 12 years active duty, quite comfortable with weapons, their use, and their results.
There is no constitutional protection for civilians with military type weapons.
The automatic action and magazine capacity are the issues.
Certain weapons are not the single shot weapons about which the Founders were concerned.
bigrebnc has repeatedly proved that the laws of the land prevent the militias from owning military-style weapons.
Why, Jake? Why should semi-automatics be an 'issue'? For that matter, why should full autos be an 'issue'? Gun laws only stop honest citizens from owning them. Criminals are going to have them no matter what laws you pass. If you don't believe me, look at Chicago and Washington, DC.
Of course there is, Jake. What kind of arms do yo think they were talking about, peashooters? Calling up the militia meant taking on the baddest army on the planet. Our Founders knew EXACTLY what they were doing when they wrote it.
I haven't listened to talk radio in ages, and even admitted my prediction of Monday was wrong when others pointed out the fact that the anti gun nuts were already being busy little bees politicizing the tragedy in Colorado with their anti gun talking points. The Democrats have their attack on the second amendment on hold... Nancy Pelosi admitted it before. And Obama, well we all know the deal.... Spare me your BS.
