Al Agnew Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I'll preface this by saying that I don't think gun laws work, at least they don't work well enough to justify the inconvenience and worse that they inflict upon law abiding gun owners. So I wouldn't be in favor of a ban on so-called assault weapons. But I must admit I get tired of the same old tired assertions that anything can be a weapon. Some things are inherently more EFFECTIVE weapons than others. Say you're in a room with a whole lot of other people. Some nutcase enters and starts trying to kill people. Which would YOU rather he be armed with--an AR 15, a handgun, a knife, a baseball bat? Take your choice. And which would you LEAST like him to be armed with? Anybody that's sane and sensible will say the least effective of those weapons is a knife or a baseball bat, because you can probably outrun the guy armed with those at least, and you have at least some chance of fighting him off even if you're cornered. And every sane and sensible person would prefer he be armed with a handgun rather than the rifle. For nearly everybody, it's a lot more difficult to shoot a handgun accurately. So there is a hierarchy of weapon effectiveness. We knew that when we banned full auto firearms for most people. This is one of those arguments that sound good to the people who are already on your side, but the people on the other side and a lot of people on the fence are not going to buy it.

jdmidwest Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I prefer a handgun, pretty good at it in short distances for self defense. Can hunt with one in a pinch. But an AR Platform is an ample rifle. Many flavors to fill the needs of what is wanted. It can even fill a shotgun role with the right configuration. AR stands for Armalite Rifle. Libtards use the designation as it is for Assault Rifle.

I’m just trying to imagine if they actually banned all assault rifles. I think technology has gotten to the point where there would be underground production facilities coming out of the woodwork.
