    What a ridiculous perspective.

    That's like saying TripleAAA and all their members are responsible for drunk drivers.

    Do better.

    Bullshit! The NRA takes advantage of morons like Mr, Obatard and other DNC politicians that make stupid promises of banning accessories, guns, limiting, harder restriction and so on..

    You can fool your followers but you best be honest with me Sir :)

    Of course they are available. AR-10 comes in .308, .338, and other larger variants, and there are many other semi-autos fire similar rounds. Its just that .223 is the favorite for many gun owners. Not sure what point you are trying to argue

    The fact is there are abortion fanatics who can accurately be described as fans.

    And 95% of the ones in common circulation are the 223 caliber

    I am being honest, and you just unwittingly proved my point.

    Yes, its the favorite. Why not? Its cheaper, and fun to shoot.

    • Idiots and losers. Not in any numbers to be significant. Just trolls who, thankfully, will never have enough support to impact policy.

    Triple AAA supports dram shop laws which enable bars to be sued when a drunk goes out from their bar and hurts people. The NRA has passed laws which protect gun makers even when the gun is given to a child.

    Do better yourself.

    So, the NRA has stated they support killing children with guns?

    Double standard bud.

    Which war are they or were they using AR-15’s? Which army issued AR-15’s to soldiers?

    That phrase, weapon of war, doesn’t really make a lot of sense when you use it. You can go buy an Colt Model 1911 and it was used in war but you aren’t talking about that. Pump action shotgun? Weapon of war. Bolt action rifle? Weapon of war. What I’m saying is it’s a phrase that is being used to scare but otherwise holds no factual basis for usage.

    Here is a weapon of war:

    Is that what you mean?

    If you have to ask that question, that means I'd have to explain "Just for starters" ballistic coefficient and ft pounds of energy at various distance from muzzle.. Bone up first so we can discuss at least with you having some understanding of the two and their differences..

    I don't think you understand what "give specific answers" means because you just keep on with the name calling and rhetoric but zero ****ing ideas.

    I gave what I thought were very specific answers as to how this kind of thing happens but it seems I misunderstood your question, what sort of "ideas" were you looking for?

    All the time. But ask those who promote abortion here and then proclaim they are not for abortion why they are against it and you get crickets.

    Yes it is in progressives' best interest to move out of Red states and Red communities. Your kids could be massacred!!! Flee.... run to New York and California.... you will be safe there. All that matters is YOUR safety and we conservatives value your safety too. Because of this, we would like to do everything in our power to help you move to where you will be safer.

    I respect your opinion. But I have a question for you.

    If nothing is done, the violence is going to continue to escalate, ever increasing the frequency and severity of these mass killing attack's, until the country rips itself apart. MILLIONS will die.

    Would you rather do nothing, and garuntee a slow, gradual slide into death?

    Or would you rather try SOMETHING? It may or may not work, and it may accelerate the bloodbath, but it at least has a chance to de-escalate.

    Which way would you go, if you had a say?

    Why is the country going to "rips itself apart" over the occasional mass shooting?

    Don't be such an alarmist.
