Why all semi-automatic weapons must be banned on a national basis | Opinion​

t is now more than evident that it is very dangerous for a society to allow for the widespread distribution and ownership of weapons whose sole purpose is to destroy human life.


Recent interpretations of the Second Amendment by the Supreme Court are simply mental gymnastics designed to achieve a political end desired by a very vocal but small minority.

The single common factor in all the recent mass shootings was the use of semi-automatic weapons (fully automatic weapons have been banned for many years). All semi-automatic weapons, both rifles and handguns, must be banned on a national basis. It is self-evident that these weapons are not needed for either personal protection or for hunting. Restrictions on the private ownership of weapons are not prohibited by the Constitution. With the elimination of semi-automatic weapons, there should also be a ban on high-capacity magazines.

These prohibitions should be coupled with a national buy-back program of semi-automatic weapons, but the refusal to sell these weapons or magazines to the government would not itself be a crime. Rather, if a crime is committed using a prohibited weapon or magazine, the owner or immediate seller of such a weapon or magazine would be equally liable for any crime committed with such weapon or magazine, regardless of who pulled the trigger. Simple, if you keep these weapons, keep them safe and locked up.

Folks the goal of Democrats in government is total disarmament ...If they succeed in banning auto loading rifles Handguns will be next folks. It is easy to dismiss this opinion piece .. In china they have a 10 year plan ,a 20 year plan, and a 100 year plan. The same thing with the anti gun folks.
We won a few weeks ago ... Wait until they pack the courts with communists. .....Things will not go in our favor. Stock up while you can

I have a different idea. How about we shoot all democrats that write anti gun editorials with semi-automatic weapons?

Just kidding FBI guys reading this.

Fine offer a buyback and make the person committing the crime negligent because they already are. If we make the person selling them negligent fine apply that to everything like cars, beer, hammers, shovels, blunt objects.
These people are not smart.

I had a conversation with someone who was about to purchase a car. In the second paragraph of the conversation, I told that person that two of my neighbors had killed someone with their cars (true story) so I will be walking everywhere I go from now on.

And that there should be a voluntary car buyback.

And that only the military and police should have cars.

He looked at me really weird.

No, that really did not happen (the two dead young people did, though) but you get the idea. Point is that I cannot stand how these libby writers throw in the recent mass shooting to make their points, and then go on to re-writing the 2A.

Restrictions on the private ownership of weapons are not prohibited by the Constitution.​

Have they read the actual text of the second amendment? Does being a liberal prevent basic reading comprehension?

They really dont want an honest opinion

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.

To be honest, I usually quit reading after I see that sentence. If they don't understand the subject, then their article on said subject is likely to be garbage. It's actually nice to know up front they don't know what they're talking about- it saves me time reading.

 

[Podmonkey]

Why all anti-gunners need to have their throats cut..........

I'm sure we wouldn't need to go back that far.
A bolt-action .338Lapua from 2 miles out will make sure the survivors understand how untenable their situation could be.

 

[LibertyWins]

If this kind of disregard for our 2A rights continues to go without a massive push back, sooner or later they'll be banning all guns along with pepper spray & pocket knives, just like they do in the UK.

I'm going to call the graphics guy Monday to price some yard signs and stickers. I have outgrown the "I DID THAT" stickers. I'm thinking this would make a nice billboard too.

Unfortunately it is abundantly clear that the left wing will never accept anything other than complete control by any means.
They preach democracy and rule of law while ignoring recently rulings by the SCOTUS.
They preach inclusiveness yet target and shout down anyone with a different opinion.

The list is long of their hypocritical positions.

 

[Jmac00]

If I had a AR-15, i'd be happy to sell it to the government ( I ain't selling anything BACK to the .gov, they never owned in the first place)

My price would be $12, 442.13, Minus optics, of course.
