there really isnt. if you are that crazed and that driven to kill, you can get creative. if a grown man walked into a kindergarden classroom without a gun (really sorry for the picture guys D: ) he could overpower everyone easily. if he wants to take out adults, bombs arnt hard to make and they NEVER dud unless you abolutely fail. the more likely part would be that they go off early and kill you. my point is, is that you can get creative and it wouldnt be hard to kill without a weapon.

Will you shoot your machine gun at a tank or an armored vehicle?

Are you guys under the impression that the "assault" rifles we are talking about are full auto? To get a full auto (legally) in this country is almost impossible. I can load and fire a hunting rifle as fast as any AR type rifle, plus there are many that are more powerful and accurate then any civilian version AR.

Im not against it. It just pisses me off that people don't look at people and wonder hey if we focused a shit ton more on our children and education, empowerment, not letting anyone fall through the cracks etc it wouldn't happen in the first damn place.

No i understand that it is semi automatic. What I'm saying is if you have a hunting rifle with a 5 round clip compared to a guy with an AR with a 20 round clip then there is no human way you get off 20 rounds as fast as him.

Plus bolt action hunting rifles are not just a point and shoot you obviously take your eye off the sight to chamber another round. an "Assault" rifle you just point and keep shooting.

good point. eh, the rifle part not so much with a shotgun but i do beleive we should regulate mags. when shooting, you dont need 20 rounds

True pump actions are quite quick i guess the difference there is their limited range even though they can be more damaging close.

I think the biggest thing is that people need to compromise with what is available and what is logical. Limiting mags is a great idea, probably as important as what guns are legal.

For the record i am not anti gun, i grew up shooting on a farm and believe that it is a good thing to be educated around the use of them as a child. BUT i do believe that you have to draw a line on what guns are available to the general public. This is where my opinion differs from many.

yea i know if you take away AR-15 enthusists will be upset and im not sure if they actually need to take them. i think if you really limit mags, an AR-15 wont be causing mass killings. all it would have is enuf to either defend your home from an attack or if there is a shooting (sick bastards) hit a couple people. you really cant stop the nutjobs from killing but you can limit it.

Our guns don`t mean jack shit to the government if push came to shove. You bring up another point entirely and that is an entirely different argument.

oh sorry i misunderstood ya. yea that is a joke. our drones could take out the entire country easy. heres an odd fact for ya. many people think drones are inacurate and hard to control but there was a kid who used an RC plane and mounted a paintball gun (this kid is genius btw) put a camera and he had a ton of targets and then had his friends run and was able to hit everyone. pretty dang scary.
