Republican Clearwater mayor calls for assault weapons ban: ‘My prayers aren’t working’

Neither prayers nor bans will fix a cultural problem.

 

No he didn't.

But liberals coined the phrase "assault weapon."

 

Cultural-Marxism is the problem.

 

Ban them too duh, like the UK is banning knives or anything sharper than a spork. Its not the people who are bad, its the tools that make them do it.

 

Daily killings with assault rifles?
Do tell

 

Not an assault rifle

 

There's something a bit pathetic about so-called religious people thinking that they can simply mouth a prayer and God will do their work for them.
Nowhere in the bible does it say that all you should do is pray then sit on your ass waiting.
God works through us. If we think that something is worth praying for, then it should be worth working for and even fighting for.

 

Should we ban priests?

 

Says who? Prior to 2009 the NRA and gun manufacturers marketed the AR-15 and similar firearms as "assault rifles". It wasn't until the Left starting using the term did they change their tune and falsely claim the term was made up by the left to scare people.

You can't have it both ways.

 

No, they did not.
An assault rifle is a defined term: A detachable magazine fed rifle capable of select fire, chambered in an intermediate caliber. ARs are not capable of select fire, hence they are not assault rifles.

You're probably confusing it with the nonsense term "assault weapon"

 

I bet you didn't think it was a "nonsense term" when the NRA and gun manufacturers was using it to sell you your big boy toys.

 

Judging by the exhibits presented here on this page it seems that the NRA and gun industry wholeheartedly embraced Der Furher’s term, ‘assault rifle’ and used it to boost sales by describing certain weapons as such. What this does is expose the lies being told by right wing outlets every day which suggest that clever liberal gun grabbers invented and are misusing the term. See what i’m sayin’?

 

The NRA are a bunch of low rent ******* who supported literally every gun control measure we have in place.
They don't support gun rights, they're now there to put money in their pockets.

Additionally: This may shock you but I don't subscribe to periodicals or other advertisements. And you wouldn't need to sell me on buying a standard piece of technology that has been around for more than 50 years in its current form, the action for which has been around since 1885. No one ever sold me on using a pen either, its just ubiquitous.
Semi auto mag fed weapons? Are just as ubiquitous at the pen.

Finally: Thanks for proving my point, you were confusing Assault Rifles, an actual term of art, with Assault Weapons, a nonsense definition.

 

Especially the ones looking for something to blame other than their policies.

 

No you should do what Democrats always do.

Plead their gun crimes down to misdemeanors and put them back on the streets to kill.

 

Which marketing?
The NRA markets firearms?
Can you show me specific media ads selling "assault rifes"?

 

I have. Three times in this thread alone.

 

In which case of these advertisements did you post something from the NRA? I don't see any.

 

That is a publication not a manufacturer or the NRA.
And what is assault-type?

 

Someone should tell this dope even Clinton's DOJ said the AWB had no impact on crime.

 

What was he praying for, that we not have a fallen world anymore? He'll have to wait for the Second Coming for that.

 

Which is why I am against a ban of any kind.

 

And yet you'd vote Beto in a heartbeat.

 

I don't see an ad from the NRA or anyone else. What I see is a magazine cover, the title being written by an editor and it's connection to the NRA a wrenching of your imagination based on lefty agenda.

 

Then you choose to see what you want to see.
