When anti-gunners lie about the AR-15 rifle, or just get it completely wrong..

I love the concern trolling.

Just pointing out the flaw in your argument.

Just pointing out the flaw in your argument.

There is no flaw.

The problem is, you guys want to blame gun violence or the lack thereof on ANYTHING but the guns.

The insane were generally confined under conditions that led to a short life and career criminals had short careers because capital punishment was widespread.

When was that 1950? Today democrats put the violent mentally ill on the street and allow them to refuse treatment

And you think getting rid of guns gets rid of people who are assholes.

This weapon was designed for a battlefield and has no business on America's streets.

Full stop.

The very first semi automatics in America were designed and sold for civilian use.

Full stop.

Except in Baldwins case, guns don't fire themselves.

the person holding it , usually, is the cause of death,

How is it hype.

If Adam Lanza had gone into Sandy Hook with a baseball bat, he wouldn't have been able to kill 26 people.

He'd have probably been overpowered before he killed 1.

Countries that don't have guns are attacked with bombs or vehicles. Evil finds a way.

It is within living memory that kids could take courses in firearm usage, including live ammo, in school. Very few mass shootings.
It is within living memory that you could order a firearm and ammo from a catalog and have them delivered to your door. Very few mass shootings.
It is within living memory that you could keep a firearm on a rack in the back window of your truck and drive through town with no hassles. Very few mass shootings.

It's not the guns.

Its amazing how you guys can let JoeB131 openly lie to you for -9- pages.

The board has an ignore function.

It's just fun to expose how vacuous the arguments really are.

Actually, most of the worst genocides happened in that period of Republican Dominance between 1860 and 1912, but don't let that stop you.

Just keep telling yourself that when you are forced to admit America has done some bad shit, you can blame the Democrats, somehow.

Even though the racist Democrats of old are the Racist Republicans of today.



Wow, I'm seeing a pattern. Anyone who fights for his land against foreign invaders is a "savage" (Native Americans, Palestinians), but your hatred of immigrants and letting the ICEstapo round them up is a-okay. Even if all they want to do are the menial jobs you don't want.

But for the Buffalo, no exterminating them was a government policy meant to crush the Plains Indians.

American bison hunting - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

The US Army sanctioned and actively endorsed the wholesale slaughter of bison herds.<a href="American bison hunting - Wikipedia"><span>[</span>78<span>]</span></a> The federal government promoted bison hunting for various reasons, primarily to pressure the native people onto the Indian reservations during times of conflict by removing their main food source. Without the bison, native people of the plains were often forced to leave the land or starve to death. One of the biggest advocates of this strategy was General William Tecumseh Sherman. On June 26, 1869, the Army Navy Journal reported: "General Sherman remarked, in conversation the other day, that the quickest way to compel the Indians to settle down to civilized life was to send ten regiments of soldiers to the plains, with orders to shoot buffaloes until they became too scarce to support the redskins."

Similarly, Lieutenant General John M. Schofield would write in his memoirs: "With my cavalry and carbined artillery encamped in front, I wanted no other occupation in life than to ward off the savage and kill off his food until there should no longer be an Indian frontier in our beautiful country."In 1874, President Ulysses S. Grant vetoed the act of Congress HR 921, which would have implemented protections against non-indigenous overhunting of buffalo.< Before this, Secretary of the Interior, Columbus Delano, had stated the following regarding complaints about non-indigenous hunting buffalo on native reservations:


Demonstrating clearly that he saw non-indigenous poaching of bison as a problem only because it may lead to retaliation from the Indians, and on the contrary, that he saw the extermination of the buffalo as potentially beneficial in the forced assimilation of Indians.

According to Professor David Smits: "Frustrated bluecoats, unable to deliver a punishing blow to the so-called 'Hostiles', unless they were immobilized in their winter camps, could, however, strike at a more accessible target, namely, the buffalo. That tactic also made curious sense, for in soldiers' minds the buffalo and the Plains Indian were virtually inseparable."<a

Like I said, my great-grandmother was a full blooded Commanche. The Plains Indians WERE savages by any sane definition.

You will NEVER penetrate the retarded mind of a gun nut.
