"Braaaains! Braaaaains!" Because they would probably be zombies if they were dead and had something to say.

There are limits to what is considered road legal, so I don't think that is a good argument. You agree to keep your lawn maintained to a certain level if you move into a neighborhood with a home owners association. You have agreed to a contract, and must follow through, even if it seems silly. If you move into a community with codes requiring that your lawn at least not be up to your knees, that is just part of living in a society. So, not a good argument. And I need my 50 inch flatscreen. That is an absolute necessity. How dare you? Have you no shame? But I can't kill somebody with my TV unless I drop it on them. And I can't kill several people in a very rapid fashion with that TV. So the comparison isn't really spot on. If I go into a 7-11 with a muzzle loader and kill a large number of them, the first was murder. The rest of the people that didn't rush me (or just walk past me out the door) while I was reloading... that is just natural selection.

Huh. So I got the rifle type wrong, despite not having . You really care that much? I haven't hunted in a few years, as I said, and haven't shot that rifle in about 20 years. Please excuse me for my honest mistake. I typed in some numbers that I thought were right, saw that 227 came up in a search and didn't bother looking further. Looking a bit further, it looks like .223 is what I meant. I could be wrong. Do you need me to drive to my parent's house and check? And I got the PS90 wrong. Thanks for the correction. I haven't priced one in a few years, so I went from memory. Sorry I don't spend my time memorizing the same things that you do. -- It seems like your "gunnies" have bad memories. Just scroll down to the HK ad. http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_5/1394176_Old_gun_ads_____post_them_.html Or take a look at this. I know, its NYT, but at least look at the first photo. Cover of the July 1981 issue of Guns & Ammo. Skim down to the part about Phillip Peterson. Considering that he writes for Gun Digest, and sells guns, he might be knowledgeable. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/17/us/even-defining-assault-weapons-is-complicated.html?_r=0 That would mean that either Feinstein (who I don't agree with) went back in time to set all this up, or you are wrong and your friends are wrong. I was wrong and admitted it. Can you do the same? -- The gubmint aint comin fer yer guns unless you are a danger to yourself or other people, or have lost your rights to own guns as a felon. You may want to read a little bit about the NY Constitution. The governor can skip the review period, legally, if the governor considers it something that must be enacted ASAP. The standard is entirely up to the governor's judgement. You can call him a criminal, but that doesn't actually make him one. I don't think that it is a functionally workable law, but it was constitutionally passed. -- As for a second shot in hunting, my opinion is that if you don't think you can make a killing shot, don't shoot. If you are too lazy and unskilled to follow a blood trail, in my opinion, you shouldn't be hunting. Once you catch up to your deer, if it is still alive, a killing shot is just mercy. I would need to spend some serious time rebuilding skills that I haven't used in years before I felt that I was competent enough to hunt with a muzzleloader with iron sights. But I would be fine with a bolt action with a scope. I have never hunted with a bow because I don't have the knack for it. I don't have the skill to be sure of killing with one shot, so I don't use them. Not selling archery equipment? That seems odd to me. But its their store. -- I hadn't considered transport. You make a valid point. But I also have the tools to disassemble my guns, which is what I have done when I needed to transport them and space was an issue. I suppose if you are too lazy to do that, you could just fold the stock. -- Five or six guys, determined to get in, willing to die to get in, not scared off by a warning shot... Do you live in an action movie, or just think you do? I admit that there isn't much gang activity where I live. And none of the gangs in my area would go to that effort unless they were going after somebody that they really wanted dead. I'm not in a warzone. I'm not in a failed state. You could make up more and more extreme hypothetical possibilities until I would say yes, you really do need this gun or that one, with a drum magazine and whatever else. That doesn't make them realistic. Besides, that is a job for a shotgun.

I'd say that if there is a question, send it to NSFW. Of course, if you aren't supposed to be screwing around online at work...

Internet tough guy? Lol, I'm just another asshole in a sea of assholes. And you are actually making my point for me. The US military isn't coming after us, even if your paranoia suggests that half of it might. Even a partial nut like you knows that the conspiracy theory believers are complete nuts.

I'm so sorry that I hurt your feelings. You seriously think that somebody would harass your 'nym if you took two minutes of your precious time to make an account? You may be kinda paranoid. But don't let me take more of your precious time. Gotta check the use by dates in the bomb shelter food stash, I understand. Go ahead. (That was a joke, anon. I don't literally believe you have a bomb shelter. I just think it is funny to say. Glad you found the reply button. The internet can be a tricky thing.) I find your position to be so ridiculous that the proper response is ridicule. So yes, sarcasm, contempt, making fun, all of that, because I think your beliefs are worthy of ridicule. I sometimes do that with my leisure time. You do with your spare time what you like, I'll call people on the internet stupid every now and then. Takes all kinds. People so paranoid that they think that the government is coming to get them when they haven't actually done anything fall into a range of behavior that I find a little crazy. If it isn't an actual fact that the government is coming for that person, they are disconnected from the world. If they think they can take on tanks, bombers, etc., they are delusional. And if they live in a fantasy world populated by illuminati, fantasies of race war, FEMA death camps, depopulation by vaccine or chemtrail, etc, they aren't living in reality. If that last level of crazy doesn't describe you, I don't think you are actually dangerous and should have your guns taken away for the safety of yourself and the rest of us. Just that you are a bit kooky. That isn't an instance of 'they disagree with me.' Its an example of some people actually being nuts. Being ready for some oppressive future regime makes you part of a very stupid target market for gun manufacturers. The rush on guns and bullets, with the subsequent price hikes? Gubmint's gonna take the guns and bullets away, so we best stock up!
"I just looked in my closet, and my rifle is just sitting there, assaulting no one."
You get the origin of a particular phrase, later re-introduced as a marketing term, and then write that. That is why I point and laugh.

Doesn't matter. In World War Z, Zeds get bloated with decomposition gases and float. Eventually, they sink and wander the deep. When you are at anchor, they come up the chain or rope, either from the seabed or from the waterline. If somebody on board has a bite and isn't caught before the infection kills them, you are fucked. Then there is the problem with refueling and stocking clean water and food. The Chinese in a nuke sub did about as well as any group that used ships to stay safe. They grew vegetables in some of the rooms, fertilized with their waste.

Grow some balls and don't be anonymous. I promise, Obama won't come for you in the night. (BTW, learn how the respond button works) Gun laws were loosened for everybody but Jews and Gypsies in Nazi Germany, despite what you might have heard. I am a gun owner. But I'm not a paranoid whackjob that fantasizes he can be Rambo.

I grew up target shooting and killing pest animals on the family farm. Target shooting wasn't plinking at cans on a fence or shooting holes in pieces of paper, it was tossing wormy apples into a creek, leading the target, squeezing the trigger, and as fast as you could, pull the bolt back, chamber a round and knock the apple back under water. Over and over, box after box. Most gun ranges are boring to me. Hey, look at that. I can hit a piece of paper that doesn't move. I've shot rabbits, squirrels, and deer for food, and skunks, raccoons, groundhogs and feral cats as pests. I killed a couple of wild dogs that had killed a couple calves, one of which was the best shot I have ever made. At a bit more than 100 yards, with the dog running perpendicular to me, I put a bullet through its head (I don't remember anything about the gun, other than it is one of my dad's, a .227 with a scope). I got to be an excellent shot with rifle and handgun, I prefer muzzleloaders for the challenge of hunting with them (decreased range, accuracy, only one shot, etc), so you can guess what I think about people who think that they need a semi-automatic for shooting anything that doesn't shoot back. I haven't hunted in a few years, not since I moved. I haven't gone looking for a place to hunt, but would like to. I haven't moved my guns to my new home, since there isn't a safe place for storing them here. There aren't a lot of break-ins in my neighborhood, but they do happen in my city, every few days. Some of the most commonly stolen items are guns. They are easy to sell and worth a decent amount of money. Letting people know you have guns is an invitation to rob you while you are at work. Very few of the break ins are violent, and they almost never happen when people are home. Most of the burglars are young and scared, and tend to run off if somebody spots them. The only violent ones are the ones who are looking for narcotics, and they go after people that they know have them. Again, its an invitation to be robbed if you are dumb enough to talk about it. As for "assault weapons," the term originated with the gun industry as a marketing term for guns that looked like or were based on military weapons. It isn't something the left made up. The assault weapons were marketed to people who needed a gun that looked tough, or had features that they didn't need, and ownership of one was a way to get your manhood. (I'm not immune. I love bullpup designs, and would love to have a P90S) When gun control advocates needed a phrase to refer to a type of gun, they used the gun industry's terms. The NRA reacted by saying, rightly, that most of the differences are cosmetic, and eventually acted like gun control advocates had made the term up. So both sides are filled with assholes and idiots. There are a few things that I do agree with the gun control advocates on. First, nobody needs a folding stock unless they are trying to conceal a rifle, or need to keep a gun close to their body, perhaps as they move through a building. Second, nobody needs more than a few bullets in any gun unless they are a really bad shot. Those people probably need to take a class or two before they will be barely safe with a gun. Safe for themselves, not just the people around them. Finally, arming teachers is the fucking stupidest thing I have ever heard. I wouldn't trust most teachers to safely store a gun in their room, with 20-30 kids getting into everything. The teachers that think they will be John Wayne, they are too nutters to trust with a gun in a school. If you really need armed security, get armed security. Maybe the local police could help, since that would be their job. That said, I do agree with the NRA on one thing, but not in the execution of it. We need to enforce the gun laws we have before we add more. But that would mean properly funding the ATF, getting rid of the loopholes in our laws, and clearing the roadblocks out of the way of the background checks. The checks would make it easier to keep guns out of the hands of people with criminal records or dangerous mental health issues. It won't be perfect, but that isn't a reason not to do it. The current checks are a mess and not all states participate fully. The NRA doesn't give a shit about gun rights or gun owners. The only people they represent are the gun manufacturers. NRA members that don't understand that are just tools. Most people with a mental illness aren't dangerous to anybody. Paranoids, manics, people hearing voices, maybe a few other groups, they shouldn't have guns or access to guns. And among the people that I consider too paranoid to have guns are the idiots that think the government is going to come and take their guns, and are delusional enough to believe that their brave last stand will set off a revolution against the evil government. Some even think that they are hero enough to survive. They are people that shouldn't be able to buy guns, and probably _should_ have their guns taken away.
