Guns are inanimate objects, no more meant for violence than a screw driver. Just like Vehicles aren't meant for plowing into large crowds of people intentionally trying to kill them, or just like fertilizer isn't meant to be used to make bombs. People still do it.

Nukes don't kill people, they are inanimate objects, there is no good reason to restrict people from building nukes.

You are so far gone that the NRA talking points have replaced your ability to reason.

You are offering advice about which guns to use for home defense? That's laughable... I mean, look at how you make your post. The AR is a very popular home defense platform, and you don't need to own one with a 20" barrel, they do have other options, which I made mention of in my list of pros.

Do you know more about guns and close quarter use than this guy?

NRA might know a thing or two about guns.

You may not be aware, but the AR has been pretty popular in this space in recent years. I'd say over the last decade or so opinions have generally been very positive in regards to the AR as a home protection option. Choosing such an option certainly doesn't mean you have "no brains" in your head.

Lol, yes very compelling arguments. I love how one of the idiots who wrote those articles talks about how you never know when you’ll need to defend yourself by shooting someone 70 yards away.

You’re right though, it is too far to say people are brainless for attempting to use the AR-15 that way, there are just many better options.

Remember though, any gun in your home actually makes you less safe.

Cars are also inanimate objects, yet people kill more people with them than guns do every year, are you suggesting we ban them?

Except the process of building a nuke itself is very dangerous, could accidentally kill millions of people, where as using a gun it has to be intentional.

You forgot smoking.. Smoking kills more people...

Get your fucking talkingpoints straight you moronic imbecile.

What is the point of a car? What is the point of a gun?

You can't use cars as they are utilities you idiot, you need something else like smoking or drinking.

Have you not been instructed properly on to have a mindless talkingpoint discussion? If not, sign up at your local NRA/Nazi/Trump headquarters, they'll tell you all about it.

A tool is a tool, they're better at some things than others. Still inanimate objects that don't function without a person behind them guiding it with purpose, whether it be good or bad.

This is seriously the stupidest pro gun argument in existence. Guns are created for the purpose of killing things and to pretend that they are no different than a screwdriver (which has many uses outside of killing) is ridiculous and you know it.

There's no need to be angry my child. According to the Terrorists in France the point of a Vehicle is to mow down people in large crowds. Just like you think the only purpose of a firearm is to kill. We've already tried making Alcohol illegal during the prohibition, didn't work out so well.

The 5.56 cartridge & the M16 (full auto AR15) were developed concurrently as a military killing machine. They & others like them represent the state of the art in such firearms. Making it semi auto reduces its effectiveness only slightly.

Many older designs were developed for the same purposes but aren't nearly as well suited to the task.

You seem to have a problem understanding what anger is in all of your recently signed up for accounts.

I'm still perfectly calm and you still haven't to make a single point.

You still don't have your talkingpoints straight but it's nice to see you trying with prohibition.

Still doesn't fit though. Lern2Nazi faster.

In reality the M16-A3 (or A4) is a military weapon that is a semi automatic built on the AR-15 platform so there is no real need to argue about this, anything based on that platform is equal to a military weapon.

Not a "Killing machine" , the solider behind the rifle is that killing machine. Try again.

You must be a racist if you think I'm Nazi just because I'm white.

Typical racist, back peddling after making assumptions about me based on my skin color.

zactly, just like with nukes, if you don't set them off no one dies and thus, Iran should have nukes.

Correct, nukes don't go off if you don't set them off. Just like guns don't harm anyone unless they're used by someone with ill-intent.

It is a bit much, I agree. But, there is a reason our mothers told us not to play in the streets. And I can see how in at least one or two of those cases the driver could legitimately have felt their lives were in danger based on how the protesters acted.

I don't argue against the guys who are slowly accelerating to get through the mob - he's plainly trying not to kill anyone. I don't sympathize with the guys who seem intent on keeping the car from leaving either.

But some of those were pretty clearly attempted if not actual murder.

But they are good Trump Nazists, surely they should get to run people over? Isn't that what Jesus would want?

Racist, Transphobic, Sexist, you're starting to meet all the requirements to join your Idol party. Not to mention you're having difficulty spelling, wouldn't expect anything else from a Nazi Sympathizer such as yourself. Hell you just admitted to visiting their message board. Disgraceful.

So you support private ownership of nuclear weapons?

Do I support the private ownership of a WMD that can kill tens of millions of people simultaneously and actually has no other purpose than to cause damage and chaos? No.

Do I support the private ownership of firearms that have been used in attacks by ill-intention-ed people, but also used to stop numerous of the very same types of attack, protect homes/property. Use for recreational means, hunting, self preservation all around. Yes.

Do you support disarming citizens, creating a large black market trade for firearms and effectively taking away ones right to self preservation? Yes.

I figured all this speak of Nazi's you might actually like to keep your guns, considering what the Nazi party did before massacring its people. Disarming those deemed "unworthy".

Wow, I think you could be on to something here. He does spend a good deal of time telling people what "team" they are on, even on things they only slightly disagree on. Agentd00f obsessed over that shit.
