Free people own guns. Slaves do not.

Can you show one single instance in our 230 year history where the application of 2nd Amendment by citizens has prevented even one act of tyranny or oppression by the US government?
OTOH, I can show you the figures recording millions of Americans killed with the firearms justified by a myth. More than died in all the wars against all our enemies since 1776.

There was a time when knifes and muskets may have protected against tyranny, but that time has pasted. Anyone who thinks they're going to protect themselves against an tyrannical government, with a hand gun, is fucking nuts.

I am sure someone as smart as you are will be able to come up with ways of reducing crime without stepping onto people's rights... who knows... maybe tough mandatory sentences for crimes?
No? Sorry I asked.
Okay, Las Vegas-Man, point made.
Its a straight question. Its far past time to puncture the myth that still kills thousands every year.

Maybe the law should state that the Constitution only needs to protect the rights of only Americans to own and carry a gun ? What's your point?
Hand guns are the largest contributor to gun related deaths, robberies being top on the list. So since robbery and armed robbery are both already illegal, what difference would the law make?
I guess condoms cause thousands of pregnancies a year, too.
(Here's a hint, you disgusting moron, condoms prevent millions of pregnancies each year. Condoms for anal and vaginal intercourse prevent the transmission of HIV in all but a tiny, tiny minority of cases. Stinking anti rational kooks.)
The 2nd Amendment was written by men who overturned a MONARCHIC colonial rule and who were seriously threatened by its return (see "War of 1812"). But in fact, we've had a robust democratic process for 230 years with elected government. The FF didn't pick King George, they petitioned but were rejected; revolution was necessary. President Obama was ELECTED with a large majority, but the right says "so fuckin' what" and waves AR15s and Glocks at us.
I believe those who wrap themselves in the 2nd Amendment as protection from THEIR government have perverted the 2nd into a right to opt out by killing elected officials when they decide they don't like election results. We heard it expressed succinctly by a Senate candidate massively supported by the RNC, and others less directly.

I am glad there has not been more.
I don't think anyone is forcing you to have guns. You are also unable to show any link between gun ownership and crime. I hear no arguments on your side, none at all. Just emotions.
They prevented nothing. They only resulted in many innocents being sacrificed to fanatics' worship of the gun right myth.

Each case created HUGE resonance. We can only guess how many other such cases they prevented. But certainly the authorities got their lesson each time.
BTW... the "fanatics" simply wanted to be left alone. Huge crime... that.

Unless the person you were going to have sex with, was tested first, and found to be positive, at which point, you'd probably take your condoms and leave.

But the left wants slavery, that's why they are so afraid of the right.
When you are a socialist or a commie, you don't have to be responsible for yourself, your master will provide for all your needs from berth till death do they part, the lefties are willing to give up their freedom for infitile, irresponsibilities. They just aren't grownup adults yet.
Using your sloganeering skills...
Free people own guns. Slaves do not.
Criminals own guns.
Therefore, criminals are free people.
_
Free people own guns. Slaves do not.
Therefore, anyone who does not own a gun is a slave.
You win the award for dumb ass platitude gaff of the day.

That'll stop it forever? And as they stated below, magazines that hold more than 10 rounds are already illegal inmost states {if not all}. Colorado won't even allow Shotguns to hold a full compliment.
More than just semantics. Now you know.
;)
If you can't shoot and kill a home intruder with 15 rounds, you might as well give it up.

But more importantly - if 10 was the limit, you would be still asking the same question, why ten and not three... so why pretend? One has to make the decision at some point, and today the extended mags are allowed in most states. If you have data showing their negative effect on crime statistics, I am sure there is someone who would be willing to hear the argument.
Otherwise, this makes no difference. For besides the number of rounds there are also other things like the caliber choices (Why, Oh, Why, would anyone need anything over .32ACP?), bullet design, barrel length, action type, etc, etc, etc.
These aberrant crimes do not prove there is a systemic problem with magazine capacity.
Using liberal logic....
If the average bus wreck kills 14 people, why are busses allowed that carry so many passengers?
If the average airliner crash kills 120 people, why do we allow anything other than single flier planes?
The use of a high capacity magazine does not prove the risk these devices being legal. Can you list other relvent examples?
Just as the nut was not a 'representative liberal' or 'representative conservative,' he is also not representative of gun owners.
"Fun sticks," they call them at the gun club.

I wouldn't try to tell a Brit he was enslaved or anything but a free man.
I wouldn't try to tell a Russian he was enslaved or anything but a free man.
Ditto in Nazi Germany... But I would not try to tell that to a German...
They must be more dedicated to crime in order to achieve this without hand guns.
