15. Your words convey dishonesty of the worst kind, Bill.
"Why give the opportunity for more powerful weapons to be on the loose?"

More powerful than what? You know damned well that semi automatic "black rifles" are less powerful than a semi-automatic 30.06...you don't want those banned too do you? (A 30.06 semi-automatic is a deer rifle in laymans terms for those reading). You choose the path of dishonesty - that of deliberate deception disinformation and mischaracterization. Many times it has been shown that so called "black rifles" use a cartridge no more powerful to less powerful than the great majority of deer rifles. Its been said enough times that there could be no possible excuse or explanation for your words except deliberate dishonesty. Way to show your spots, Bill.


"What's the utility for society? None really, just selfishness by the gun lobby and it's minions."

Thats your assertion...err unsupported unsubstantiated assertion. Its up to you to show that its more than just utter hogwash. Please do so IF you can. Oh, and its not up to YOU to decide what a things "utility" for society is.

"The black rifle crowd are forcing police to have to have more powerful weapons and scaring the general public into upgrading. Gun manufacturers win by selling more profitable weapons to cops, crooks, weirdos, "gun enthusiasts" and a terrorized public ."

The fridley (or was it coon rapids) police in MN have been carrying FULLY AUTOMATIC MP-5 machineguns in their cars since the mid-90's (unless they have stopped carrying them) - BEFORE there was the "black rifle crowd" like the term refers to in this day and age. That was during the original assault weapons ban. I talked to a patrolman for a good hour about it, and saw the rifle first hand. So that whole point you tried to make was just bullshit.


In a nutshell, your entire statement and argument have been deconstructed. Perhaps you should try something new. Maybe try discussing the same black rifles using FACTS - if you can.
