do you also talk out loud in the movie theater too citing the obvious thinking you're the only one who got it? |
lets take this a step further, why does one need semi auto for home protection when it's LESS effective than a pump shotgun????

personally, i got rid of all my guns, but kept my remington 870 shotgun, pepper spray and dog for my home defense network after learning about the effectiveness of a shottie over a handgun. |

Hey gun nuts
Why would you WANT a semi auto when the bad guy coming in might have a shotgun and be 40% MORE effective than your semi auto at killing you? wanting a semi auto for home defense knowing the bad guy might have a shotgun is the same as bringing a knife to a gun fight. Why do you want to be on the loosing end? |

Just to correct a misapprehension about what the militia is, take a look at the law. This provision has been in effect since at least the early 50's; I suspect that it's a re-enactment of something much older, but I have no time to research it today. By federal law, Title 10 United States Code Section 311, every able bodied male between 17 and 45 is a member of the Militia of the United States and I suspect that they are also members of state militias in most or all states:
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10/311 In Heller, the Supreme Court views the preamble of the Second Amendment ("A well regulated Militia . . .) not to limit or restrict the remainder of the Bill of Rights guarantee that the right of the people to keep and bear arms "shall not be infringed". That seems to be the correct reading because the operative language does not address itself to "members of the duly constituted militia" but to the people. This conversation would be enlightened by a careful reading of Heller. http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/07-290.ZO.html That's the law of the land. I will shortly be expanding my practice to more gun cases that I've handled in the past. Last weekend, another lawyer and I agreed to act as founding members of the Second Amendment Lawyers' Association. Finally, the original poster has entirely missed the point of my last post and I just don't know how to make it plainer: the whole point of a "right" is that you don't have to re-argue the matter or justify or defend how you exercise it. When a right is established, it is no longer necessary to tell people why you take advantage of it. And the correct answer to "why do you need to . . . ", whether it's about voting, reading or writing a book, publishing or viewing porn, traveling between states, refusing to admit warrantless agents into your home, or having firearms is - "it's none of your business". That's the only answer the original poster deserves. When you can only vote by giving some official an explanation, it's no longer a "right". For one year, my own website, xxxlaw.com, has said on its front page: "Personal freedom and privacy need no excuse." I count gun rights as a matter of personal freedom and societal protection from tyranny. |

As a former military police officer and graduate of the California POST police academy, I am an avid gun enthusiast.
The valid reason is that some of us enjoy shooting weapons. Legal ones. This was my duty weapon. http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...ogg5NIjIn-DItA 9mm-15 rounds (Cali ones are 10). Nothing really crazy. Certified marksman 3 times. I still love to shoot them. It's sentimental. This is my home protection piece. https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...00357409_n.jpg Mossy 12 gauge 500 cruiser with tactical blinding flashlight. There is no sound in the world more intimidating that hearing one of these racking a round at 3am in an empty dark house. Well, nothing but this. https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...66606046_n.jpg As you can see, my intruder detection and eradication system is still growing. Just a baby at 4 months old. He'll be about 115 lbs when he's full grown and strong as a linebacker. Six more months and a home invader that desires to keep his arms and face intact would be better served targeting another home. All this arguing about guns is just getting stupid. People post ridiculous shit on Facebook about how sad that USA lives in fear and needs guns. I'll be safe and sleep at night with my duel purpose pet and recreational firearms, as I know they're serving a purpose of duality. I do not live in fear. I live prepared. :thumbsup |
actually the only reason I try and protect the right to bear arms is because I actually believe that force in numbers has an impact on the things our government does. Ill own a gun anywhere in the world, law or not. find it if you can. Doesnt matter to me.
and then the Canadians who are already a nanny state will try and compare their country to the most powerful country in the world. Lots of folks want the reigns to the US. Canada just sleeps no one gives a fuck about their dog sleds |

I know that's very complicated for you to understand, if I write it in crayon would it help? to explain this again so you can HOPEFULLY (although doubtfully) understand it, cause you seem to not have a clue about what is being brought up here, is that the point was SOME firearms can and are restricted in the USA - Thus WHY are semi auto needed without huge regulations like full auto? Who cares if it's state or federally mandated. You have given NO reason as to WHY they are needed to be owned with minimal regulation by the general civilian population other than the typical NRA 'it's your right' bullshit which is full of holes. if it's your right to own firearms, why are some highly regulated and some aren't then!?!?!?!??!?!. Apparently the gov't can and does take away your rights. You can't walk off the street in ANY state and just buy a full auto machine gun the same way you can buy a handgun most states. my whole point was semi auto and handguns should be treated like full auto is in most places in the USA. now IF you are an even slightly capable lawyer, show me a reason why this should not be so? you avoided that, it was brought up MANY times in this thread, thus you were owned. and still are. sad, your answer says a LOT about your ability to practice law doesn't it......... I highly doubt your highly trained legal response of "it's none of your business' would go very far with any police officer if they found a full auto uzi in your glove compartment and you didn't have ALL the highly restrictive licenses for it in ANY state. |

i find nothing wrong with owning guns for sports btw - neither for protection in the hands of a responsible owner (when you live in a place where you think it's necessary) i just think the 2nd amendment thing is nonsense (sorry) |

Quote:
look closely at what I'm stating and asking. we're not that far off. I've never said ban shotguns for home defense, i use one myself I believe in sport use of guns, and bolt, pump, and level action aren't a problem I think handguns should be limited to a target range or hugely restrictive licenses, or police officers and such only I like other protection ideas like dogs or tazers I just think the average person is too dumb to properly handle semi auto and handguns and doesn't need them without huge restrictions - not all guns, JUST handguns and semi auto (and full auto as well of course) |

I'll tell you why. There are numerous home defense rounds available for shotguns that are incredibly effective at stopping the threat as it resides. I've got rounds for specific instances. They stop the threat dead in its tracks when used correctly yet they won't penetrate my walls and kill an innocent bystander in another room. I don't think the average American is properly trained in many instances in firearms safety. I believe we should have more stringent training requirements for folks to buy firearms. I've got at least 1500+ hours of structured training and certifications under my belt, and at least 5+ years of on and off duty carry time in, and I still would have no problems taking additional classes to legally own as a civilian. In a shot/no shoot scenario you're literally making a life changing decision in a matter of seconds. The only way to do that most effectively is training and preparation. My 2 cents. |

WAIT ... Someone is going to jump the man while he was reloading.... Ok, just as someone could of shot him if they were armed. How about Mind your own fucking country.. Your Fucking Pipe dream of no semi autos is NOT going to happen. IF .... Someone is in the living room with my family that I need to shoot, I would rather be shooting a single shot, than spraying the room full of buck shot. Yes it is the Most effective in Close range ... With no other people in the room you want to shoot. Shit ... What is Rochard going to do if his friendly bad guy was in your house? After you asked him if he was there to just rob you, and now you have to fire a warning shot.... dang that spray.... I will give you something.... THE REAL QUESTION Does ANY Of this MATTER to the BAD GUY???? Answer FUCK NO..... I will give you this... The sound of a round chambering in a shotgun will scare off many people.... |

Seeric had great points. Criminals obtain their guns illegally anyhow. My concern are the psychos and accidents with kids. Civilians must retain the right to prevent a potential junta attempt. This can happen only through the right of gun ownership. If you think the opposite you do need to refresh your memory and look back on what happened to other countries over the past century.

ban handguns allowing only those with highly restrictive licenses and training to have them, same for semi auto. Make it jail time to own an unrestricted restricted firearm unless they are all turned in my such and such a date. Pay people for them, $200 or so a gun. Then use the all American capitalistic urge to make money off snitches and offer $1000 reward for anyone snitching on an unregistered firearm that gets taken in and charges laid for illegal possession. 90% of all illegal firearms gone in 5 years like that, the remained will be so well hidden they won't be much of a problem anymore. yes illegial guns will still exist, but there will be MUCH less out there. and have simple registration and licenses for bolt pump and lever action rifles and shotguns so the people can still have the right to EASILY own, have and bear arms that;s my 2 cents. but soo many other people reading this hear ban guns and go bat shit crazy without actually thinking it out |
almost 10 pages and not ONE valid reason to own a semi auto gun

most people dont open carry because theres no point. if you want to carry a weapon on your person, youre not going to let a potential threat like a mugger or a rapist know you have a weapon. theres no want to hide anything. and where in the constitution did it say you could randomly shoot a gun in the air, or randomly shoot people theres no fear. theres crime everywhere, why wouldnt you prepare yourself |

to make fun of me in a thread where I'm against semi auto, you try and slam me with a picture of what??? a BOLT ACTION rifle, which I've stated about 100 times in this thread I have no problem with and shouldn't really be regulated. do you even have two brain cells in your head? web designers require creativity and a few brain cells. How on earth do you survive? Honestly you're the dumbest designer on the planet. Who would EVER want to work with you or hire you? I mean the most original thing you've said against me is I'm fat. no shit sherlock. what kind of ads do you create? With all the creativity you've shown here I'd expect something like this "You can actually buy porn if you have a credit card" and sell that to people wanting to buy ads on a tube site. |

you seem to be serious about this, so serious question- what's your valid answer to your question? Were you open to a valid reason or was the thread to point out that you don't believe there is any valid reason? thanks in advances. :) |
Quote:
what I've seen as reasons are I want it - ohh boohoo it's dangerous to others. the safety of others overrides your wants Home protection - yet a shotgun is 40% more effective than semi auto and 100% more than full auto the constitution - yet all kinds of guns are regulated, restricted, and banned in the USA hunting - no real hunter needs semi auto, more than one bullet ruins meat so i ask again, is there a valid reason for the general civilian population to own semi auto and handguns (without sever license and training requirements) ? . |
