GOP Representative threatens O'Rouke after AR comment

[Fanatical Meat]

Pretty sure I posted that exact idea here some time ago. Take to the gun to the police station (or other designated area), the seller meets you there, background check on the spot.

Now that you mention it I believe it was you @SlowSpyder

 

[shortylickens]

slow its your turn. Show us your guns... "Yes Jst0rm, these are my guns"

If I did that you guys would call the FBI!!

 

[JSt0rm]

If I did that you guys would call the FBI!!

Are you allowed to have a gun?

I'm always happy to help inform our more ignorant members on firearms. It's what I do.

So lame. Your allegation was that the 5.56 is not the most popular AR caliber. Just because it can be chambered for other cartridges doesn't prove that allegation at all.

The round & the rifle were co-developed as a weapons system back in the 50's-

.223 Remington - Wikipedia

It's distraction, anyway. A ban would obviously include all variants & weapons with similar features.

Do you think reporting requirements for banks reduce money laundering and tax evasion or should we remove them and rely solely on identifying it and prosecuting it after the fact?

Committing crimes for money vs. emotion are different. Laws are going to do very little to deter emotional crimes in my opinion. This is the realm you are dealing with when you are talking about nutbags committing mass shootings. Therefore most proposals are not going to do much to stop them but will hinder rational, law abiding citizens.

FFS dude. What is so difficult to believe about an American, particularly someone that lives in the middle of the country, owning guns?

Here are two of my guns. A KelTec PMR30 with two magazines and a couple boxes of rounds. I also have here my much older US Arms five shot revolver in .32. Lastly, in the lower corner are some bullets just for comparison. A .22 long rifle, the .22 magnum my PMR30 takes, and a 9mm just for size comparison. I used to have a Sig P290 (9mm) that I sold long ago as I hated the long and heavy double action trigger pull on such a small framed gun. It made shooting it accurately something I could do, but took too much concentration. Do I have to go get my rifle and shotguns, or are you good now?

Also, next up for my PMR30 is an extended / threaded barrel. It makes the gun very reliable and gives the rounds a another 75-100fps velocity. Lastly, it can take a suppressor, pretty cool.

strange i get this result from your photo? Any ideas why?

 

[JSt0rm]

why would u need to resize your photo with this?

What is the GD library? GD is an open source code library for the dynamic creation of images by programmers. GD is written in C, and "wrappers" are available for Perl, PHP and other languages. GD creates PNG, JPEG and GIF images, among other formats. GD is commonly used to generate charts, graphics, thumbnails, and most anything else, on the fly. While not restricted to use on the web, the most common applications of GD involve website development.

I rotated the picture from the original to create a landscape view. Are you really digging into the metadata to try and find out something...?

I took the pic and then emailed it to myself. I opened it up with whatever the default Windows 10 photo viewer is (in its original portrait mode). In the upper right hand corner I clicked on drop down next to "Edit & Create" and then clicked on the option to edit. I then rotated the pic one time to landscape and saved it, then posted it here. The pic is 100% authentic.

Sorry, but I dont subscribe to the believe that more laws make us safer. Its not that simple. Im for common sense gun laws (Ive explained what I believe in the last few months in youre interested) but this proposal of yours is just dumb.

Name one mass shooting recently this law would have prevented.<<---- mors BS??

See, you know nothing about conservatives. You think all conservative want free for all gun ownership. You likely think thats what the NRA wants also. Sure, theres a small group of people who think that, but in no way is it the majority. All you believe is what your liberal friends tell you. <<---- You see what he believes has nothing to do with his liberal friends!! It has more to do with the outrage and lies and misstatements that his so called Consrrvatives friends put forth...

Oh and "most effective"? HAHAHAHA effective at what? Getting guns out of the hands of those who want to use them for nefarious purposes? Walk me through that, would you?

You seems to take great pride in the fact that all shootings or possible shootings cannot be stopped. Yet something has to be done. I am sure it will. I know you won

 

[JEDIYoda]

Why would that be the metric? Mass shootings are way over-represented in how we think about gun violence, what we should really be working to limit is the daily grind of handgun deaths. And while your argument of 'this is dumb' is compelling and all you're going to need to explain exactly why it is dumb. After all, gun ownership is a risk factor for both homicide and suicide even after controlling for all other measurable, relevant factors. Fewer guns benefits everyone.



I didn't say anything about what conservatives wanted in terms of policy - why are you inventing things for me to believe other than to cover for the weakness of your argument? It is ironic that you just stereotyped what you think my liberal friends believe though, especially since not one of them I know actually believes that. I certainly don't.



Plenty of guns are in the hands of people who have no intent to use them for nefarious purposes right up until the point that they do. Regardless, plenty of (most?) illegally owned guns were originally purchased legally. Tracking gun ownership makes it much more difficult to legally purchase a gun and then transfer it to a 'bad guy'.

The sort of restrictions I'm talking about have been implemented and are effective in other developed nations. If you want to declare America to be magically special in this regard you're going to need to provide evidence.

DAMN!! WELL SAID!!

 

[JEDIYoda]

Curious how we never hear it wrt abortion.

another attempt at deflection!! Dude one subject at a time!!

 

[JEDIYoda]

Yes I have. Plenty.

Now that is funny!!

 

[JEDIYoda]

i dont need to ask nicely. You (Spidey)have an opportunity to pwn me by showing me you arent a Russian. For some reason you wont do it. odd.

hahahaha you nailed it on the head!!

 

[blackangst1]

You seems to take great pride in the fact that all shootings or possible shootings cannot be stopped. Yet something has to be done. I am sure it will. I know you won

Why not do something that will actually WORK? Or work towards something that is actually POSSIBLE?

And your pride comments is...odd.

I do believe that's a Iver Johnson 32 Short Colt break top revolver. One just like it was the weapon that was used to shoot McKinley.

No, you're getting me mixed up with another poster, check it out.

Also it wouldn't be that difficult to change the AR-platform to remove some objectionable parts and turn it into a lever action rifle. It's not new technology.

This was your claim-

The most popular cartridges on the AR-15 platform.

• .300 Blackout
• 6.5 Grendel
• 6.8 SPC
• .458 SOCOM
• .50 Beowulf

Probably a dozen or more others have been adapted for the platform. Great for hunting animals as small as prairie dogs to the largest of bears.

Changing the AR to a lever action design is absurd distraction. It wouldn't be an AR, at all. You can get the lower receiver with a totenkopf, however, kinda like something from the SS-

Because that's your mantra, when ever some form of gun control is mentioned!! You immediately jump in to say that gun control will not stop all shooying . Almost as if that statement is some sort of GOTCHA statement in favor of things as they are currently!
Carry on!!

 

[SlowSpyder]

Yup, exactly what it is. It is a hand me down from my my grandfather on my dad's side. I barely knew my grandfather, this and an old shotgun is all I have from that side of the family. Story I'm told is that he received this gun (or it may have even been his parents - my great grandfather) in exchange for rent from someone when he had a small place he was renting out, someone didn't have the money and traded him that revolver in exchange for rent payment. Many years later I have it now.

That is a bit of a silly statement. Are you willing to admit that banning private sell and ownership of Surface to Air missiles and launchers makes us safer? What about restrictions on high explosives?
What we are talking about is the same thing. Placing proper restrictions on simi-automatic weapons will be just as effective, given enough time.
