    What is an assault rifle?

    Would you make all semi-auto rifles 'assault rifles', or just AR-15s? What about semi-auto pistols?

    They would be vastly easier to smuggle. A dog can tell the difference between car parts and drugs, but can't tell the difference between car parts and guns.

    Look at you, further arguing for the futility of carrying a gun.

    handguns will never be banned, assault riffles one day will be banned - just like machine guns

    your logic is machine guns should be legal cause most people are killed by handguns?

    Just for clarity- you consider our drug laws to be successful, effective and/or beneficial to society, correct?

    How is it you are ignorant of the fact assault rifles and machine guns - neither of which are banned - are both regulated by the same federal law?

    I challenge you to find a venue suitable for a national convention that doesn't restrict firearms on its property as a matter of general policy. They all do.

    I think it's one that runs out of bullets and then the assailant beats you to death with it as a club. But be warned, I'm trying to think like a leftist!

    N, it's you who is writing nonsense.
    Ddyad wrote "The police in the UK did not need to carry submachine guns until they disarmed their law abiding population."

    Why don't you explain how the police carrying or not carrying submachine guns has anything to do with the "law abiding population" never carrying guns?

    Tell us why you refuse to understand this:
    - A population can be armed, yet unable to carry guns in public.
    - Thus, the fact they never carried guns in the first place means -nothing- in respect to his post about disarming them.
    Thanks.

    Still waiting for you to "point out which "law abiding population" were armed before the amendment?"

    Wait, so you are saying that no intoxicated gun carriers would go to that type of festival and all gun owners are law abiding? Are you saying that everyone carrying into a festival will be breathalyzed on entry and will be banned from drinking once inside? I would like to hear how you will be able to determine who is and who isn't law abiding at the queue into the festival
