So is the pro-gun crowd. What's your point?

The point I think is that the anti-gun liars and idiots tend to be very prominent and outspoken people. The people who want to ban and confiscate firearms are the ones who know least about them, and thus fear them the most.

And the pro-gun liars and idiots tend to be prominent and outspoken people who fear the invisible boogie men who they think are coming to take their guns away.

The idiots are on both sides of this issue and the liars are on both sides of this issue and the people screaming that the people on the other side of the issue are the liars and idiots are themselves liars and idiots. It's a wash, they're all dangerous, clueless zealots.

I'd argue one side are idiots trying to make laws about devices other's don't know about and the other side are idiots worried about said laws constantly being proposed.

Of course a semi-automatic weapon can take down an airplane.

If Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and Captain Sully Sullenberger taught us anything, it's that mere seagulls and ducks can take down aircraft.

I'm pretty sure bullets are more powerful than seagulls, though not necessarily stronger than an unladen swallow.

That's what happened to Pluto.
LOL

Jesse is 100% correct.

Take your assault rifle down to the railroad tracks and wait for a train. As the train gets really close, um, stick the barrel in the switch and pull, detrailing the train. The derailed train leaves the tracks slamming into the school and coming to rest with the propane tank car directly over the burners in the school kitchen, causing the propane car to explode and kill all the children. The sound of the explosion startles the giraffes who lift their heads into the propellor of the plane that is taking off causing it to crash into the hospital killing everybody.

Way to go gun nuts. :mad:
LOL Stupid giraffe farms!
