(3,547 posts)but the problem is those are weapons that many in our party would like to see banned as well
weapons such as
Pistols
Revolvers
Pump-action/semi-auto shotguns
Here is the issue....when you start going by the logic that "weapons used by Law enforcement/military should not be in the hands of the civilians" without delving deeper into "why" they are used, you will end up taking some of the best weapons off the market
I find it silly and insulting when a politician says that all I should have is a 1 or 2 shot shotgun, and anything more is crazy.
If they truly believe in allowing americans to own weapons for the primary purpose of self defense they are going to have to allow weapons that are good at "killing" people. A pump action shotgun, in the wrong hands, can have a devestating effect, especially in such things as "contained" mass shootings.
