21. And once more, completely missing the point

First off, it's not "quibbling". The rifle used in Newtown was not an "assault weapon" by state law. Your side came up with a bunch of arbitrary and secondary features in YOUR side's definition, and then spent 30 years bitching and moaning about people finding work-arounds and not following the "spirit" of the laws while trying to make the laws tighter

Second, do you mean long guns or hand guns?

Third, IT WILL STILL PUT REPUBLICANS IN POWER.

Christ, when you trick a kid into licking a 9-volt battery, they usually won't do it again. You guys are practically swallowing it.

It doesn't work to control crime, and it prevents us from running things. We can't improve society when MAGAts are running things!

We saved far and away more lives by passing environmental regulations and giving women control over their reproduction than any gun law.

Pious frauds regard truth as something that can be skipped when 'necessary' friendly_iconoclast Jul 2019 #34

Better analogy is a ban of hand grenades. sharedvalues Jul 2019 #24
