I shot four AR-15's today

And my point was...............about the purpose you WOULD'VE added something. Cosmetics or function?

So would you add a flash suppressor for cosmetics or function? Don't want to tell me huh? LOL! WHAHAHAHAHA No wonder I have to ask this very simple question over and over again. It points to your ignorance or just flat out denial to be a part of the discussion!

 

So is your argument a DNC/LIB argument? The Liberal Gun Club might disagree with you.

There is a reason there are 900 exceptions to the bill and they all have to do with looks. Like someone said before, the Ruger Ranch rifle shoots the exact same round, just as fast, and can hold 30 round magazines but was one of the exceptions. Why? Because it simply did not look scary. The AR-15 shoots an "intermediate" round which is between a handgun round and a rifle round like the 30-06 or .308. In other words, it is not as powerful as a round you would use to hunt deer but is great for hunting varmints. One of the reasons it is the most popular rifle in the country is because it is modular and you can get an handgun size round upper for it so you can hunt deer in some States that only allow handgun type rounds for hunting deer.

Some soldiers complained that you had to shoot someone multiple times with the M-16 (an actual assault rifle) because the round was not sufficient for stopping power. In other words, you might have to shoot someone 3 times to equal a hunting round so the 30 round magazine is only as good as a 10 round magazine for a hunting round.

The function of any handgun, rifle is to shoot a bullet. Why ban only a particular looking rifle that works like any other rifle? Because of looks.

 

You see hiimjered????? See how many times I have to ask this question? Its very funny. Not one person is willing to admit that these things add function.................even though I've been asking this question for days!

It really hilarious to ask and then no one know the answer to the question. TOO FUNNY! They either know the answer or are just pretending not too. I wonder why they need to pretend that its a difficult question. A 5 year old could answer it!

And this another example that we are not coming for your guns. There is nothing about banning the guns that CAN hold 30 rounds, its more about banning the clips that can hold 30 rounds.

 

If you could learn to read and pay attention you would have noticed pages ago all your questions were previously answered honestly. There should be no need for repetition.
They're not difficult questions. The fact you don't already know the answers is what the world finds disturbing. How can any rational being have such strong opinions on something they cannot even begin to grasp? The answer to that question is they can't. Therefor your entire argument is irrational.

 

We are not banning a particular looking rifle. That's your misconception that will not allow you to understand. Its like thinking post it notes are not yellow because they are square. Thinking "square" has anything to do with yellow will never allow you to see that they are yellow.

Thinking "looks" has anything to do with "function" will never allow you to see the function we are pointing to! Just that simple. If we only knew your reason of why you do it? So you don't have to understand or because you tried and just couldn't???? That's the mystery!

 

If they were answered honestly, then we wouldn't be having this confusion over "scary" or "function". If you admitted the function of the flash suppressor then you would admit that we dont want to ban something because of looks...........its because of function.

So are you willing to admit that flash suppressors have a function? If so, then this means we dont want to ban them because of appearance!

 

Are you ready to tell us what the function is you want to ban?

 

You don't want to admit function. You pretend that there is no function added; therefore we MUST want to ban things because of appearance. But yet there IS A FUNCTION.

Appearance doesn't provide a real reason to ban something. Function does. If you admitted function, you would see that we have a very good reason for banning something...........function. So no wonder you want to pretend that we want to ban something on appearance. You think this is not a good enough reason to ban something and its not. Its kind of the reason we are trying to ban things because of function; not appearance!

Oh, so you don't know why you would add something like that to your weapon????

Would you add it for function or appearance? See? If you answered this question,I wouldn't have to ask it again!

 

You see? You are trying to pretend that there is no function. You CANT think of a reason to add this to your weapon? You will not add it because of function(you can't think of one), so therefore should I assume you want to add it for cosmetic purposes?

What would be your reason? Function or cosmetics? LOL Keep trying and I will keep asking until you decide to be honest! LOL

You dont even know what the functions are, how can you be against them? Sheer ignorance.

 

This thread only serves to justify my condescending attitude towards the clueless.

 

Problem is there are a lot of politicians willing to pander to the clueless in order to get votes. Look at Ron Paul, no other politician would be so desperate or scummy as to pander to 9/11 truthers and other conspiracy theorists in order to gain their vote.

 

The most honest gun control advocacy article I read was a guy who wrote

"I never grew up with guns, none of my neighbors grew up with or owns guns. To us, guns are alien and frightening, and we don't want them in our community and we should have that right to live in a gun free community."

The most honest anti gun advocates openly admit their irrational fear and then claim that democracy gives them a right to live without guns in their community.

 

You sleep with your guns? That's seriously weird...

 

See? He can't tell me if those accessories have a function or not? He doesn't know! That's pathetic, but yet pure comedy! LOL

- - - Updated - - -

And yet another one that refuses to be honest just to save face! These guys don't know if they add accessories such as a flash suppressor because of function or because of looks!

So tell me........does a flash suppressor make your gun look pretty or does it add some function? Or you can run from this since its too "scary" for you! LOL

 

In the same way I sleep with my Trek 3600.

 

Honestly I want a flash supressor on my AR-15 because it looks better than a straight tube barrel. I want a pistol grip because im more comfortable firing with them. I want a "barrel shroud" because the idea of covering a hot barrel is a good one. I want detachable magazines because its faster to have my friends load their own mags then fire than it is to have everyone directly load the weapon. The bayonnette lug is also just gor looks, though im not opposed to getting a bayonet as well. It wouldnt be mounted during firing because it would just add unnecessary weight to the front of the weapon.

See anything unreasonable gere? Any reason I shouldnt be able to own a rifle with all these items? I cant think of any reason. Fact is Im not a criminal.

 

Just because something serves a function doesn't mean that the function is the reason it is banned. If it was the reason, then you would have no problem answering my earlier question. Since you dodged, I have to conclude that the function isn't the reason those items are on the ban list.

It is like the people who put a cowl hood on a non-supercharged car. A cowl hood serves a purpose - it creates clearance and an air inlet for a supercharger. But that clearly isn't the reason they added the hood. They are just putting it on for appearance sake.

Likewise if you can't answer my two questions, it pretty well proves that, even though those features do add certain functionality, the functionality isn't the reason for them being banned.

 

That's funny, I've asked you the same two questions several times and you have yet to answer them. They aren't difficult questions, why won't you answer them?

 

I think danielpalos had a child. Thats why.

 

And just because something looks scary doesnt mean that's the reason we want it banned. We are basing our decisions on function whether you CAN understand or not!

 

See? You still can't admit that it will add function to your weapon. I wonder why you are so scared to admit it??? LOL

 

So you are crying foul now when I use your tactic against you. How sad! You see, I have been asking the same question over and over again for days and not one person is willing to address it. So, I decided that I will not address your questions until you can address mine...........and once I start using your tactic on you, you suddenly cry foul.

So take your time. You want to pretend its a tough question, then I will just have to believe the evidence that your lack of answer provides!

 

And if we said that we wanted to ban cowl hoods because of the function they provide(increased air flow), I often wonder if you would continue to lie and pretend that it provides no function...............therefore our reasons for wanting them banned is purely cosmetic?

And likewise, if we said that we wanted to ban flash suppressore because of the function they provide(to the shooter), I often wonder if you would continue to lie and pretend that they provide no function at all..........therefore our reasons for wanting them banned is purely cosmetic?

You see how funny this is???? It absolutely hilarious! It like you pretending that post it notes are not yellow because they are square. No wonder you CANT understand, you keep bringing up things that don't matter in order to cloud the discussion! I wonder why?

 

What will add functionality, the flash suppressor? I'm not firing at night. You can't aim without optics and it's just plain not fun.

BTW I already said there was some added functionality with detachable magazines vs. internal (my friends can load up mags while waiting to fire, thus cutting downtime); you're just trying to prove a point that you don't have. In fact I don't know what you're trying to do other than "win" some argument you've made in your head. You should at the very least have some knowledge in the subject, and read what other people are saying. All you've done is show you have no knowledge in the subject and shown that you absolutely refuse to address any point or even acknowledge what people are telling you. It's just mindblowingly stupid. You have to be trolling; no one would intentionally remain this ignorant and put up so much of a fight trying to keep from educating themselves in a subject they have an opinion on.
