re: #128 Dark_Falcon

The government must show why it is justified in banning something. Citizens do not need to justify to the government why they wish to own someone.

And if any bans are to be promulgated, that is the task of Congress. And after Sandy Hook Diane Feinstein introduced such a ban in the Senate and the a majority of the Senate voted that ban down.

Unless Adam Lanza’s mother, who is now dead, was a member of Seal Team Six, there was no practical reason for her to purchase an assault rifle. My guess, and we’ll never know because the fucker killed her, is that she bought it for her son because he wanted it and mothers do stupid shit for their kids because they love them.

I grew up with guns. I have guns (I keep them at my parent’s house because I have no need for them and dad has a nice big gun safe). I’m not anti gun. I am anti assault rifle. They’re useless for hunting, and they’re useless for protection. They’re useful only for ASSAULT hence their name. They’re tactical killing tools.
