102. There have been advances in dependability, but high-capacity is not new
Edited on Mon Apr-23-07 05:10 PM by piedmont
Your ignorance is laughable, and erodes your argument.


If you for one second think that today's plethora of ridiculous guns and ammo are nothing that hasn't been around since Teddy R, then you need to take a look at the NRA's American Hunter magazine. It's pathetic to look at that and compare it to the Field and Stream of my youth.

1) Why would I compare F&S from your youth with American Hunter of today? They are different publications, with different purposes.
2) What, exactly, is in there that you have a problem with? I took a look at their website, and they mostly cover bolt-action rifles, pump and break-open shotguns, muzzle-loaders, some semi-autos, etc. Not exactly "American Terrorist."

Just saying that there were historic examples of a type of gun mechanism doesn't mean jack shit. It's out of control and you know it.
Just saying "it's out of control" doesn't mean jack shit either. You're the one who wants to enact an authoritarian reduction of citizens' rights. The burden to prove it's necessary is on YOU.

Believe me, we will reign in your toys, it'll take a couple more VA Techs but that won't take long. The constituency will be all 75% of us.
So you'll keep praying for another massacre, eh?

Wash up Pal.
Another gun-o-phobe resorts to insults when logic fails him. Nice.
