Because my highly visible burglar alarm scares off more would be robbers than some gun tucked away in a safe. The alarm also won't accidentally blow off my kid's head.

Because i don't live in a shitter that'd require me to own one just to stay safe.
>>708108150
If your gun "accidentally" blows off your kids head, don't think of it as a sad thing, just think of it as Darwinism at its best
>>708107911
Because there is no need for a gun and because I do not want to be suffocated by all the paperwork required to get a gun.
I have a bow for home defense. 100% legal under any circumstances, silent and hard to use if you have zero training. You can silently hurt any thieves and if somehow the bow ends up in the wrong hands I can bet anything they can't hit shit.
>>708108456
Maybe if the kid was at least a teenager.
>>708108602
Brutal.
Robber walks in and gets pinned to the fucking wall with an arrow.
>>708108641
No, even the young one's, if the gun is in a place where your young child can access it freely and blow their head off, it's Darwinism at work
because i have a large calibre dog and an intrusion alarm protecting my home. :)

>>708108602
go to /k/ with that shit bro
>>708108710
Not exactly. It's an entry level bow, but you can still kill someone very easily. Going for the legs is best, low chances of killing him and high chances of disabling him.
If you had a gun the police would start a full investigation to determine why you shot. A bow is considered a mere toy or sport item and stuff usually gets by quickly.

>>708109421
For self defense, sport, and because it is my God-given right. This was my first gun. I got it for style and sentimental value. The glock I got because ammo capacity. And the AR.... well let's just say I'm saving for a dark and stormy day. Next gun will be shotgun.
>>708108602
I would get a lawyer to check up on that for you. It was not too long ago where I saw a segment in the news where someone used a hunting bow to shoot someone breaking into his home. The dude is doing like 20 years because he used a bow.
Then again law in the US is dumb as fuck anyway where a burglar can break into your house, trip over a kids toy and break their leg. Then go back, sue you AND WIN.
>>708109273
And open yourself up to a nice civil case in the process

Because I'm not a paranoid fuck from a shit-tier country.
>>708109587
its not a god-giver right, cuz god doesnt exists, what do u defend yourself from? How many times did u have to defend yourself with them specifically? Cant u lease a gun for sport?
>>708109762
im sure uve never drawn a gun on a nig
>>708109876
God does exist and he specifically said I can own these guns. Second, how many times have you ever used your airbag? Are you just gonna disable it because it's never deployed before? Fuck off shill
>>708109594
Well, I do not live in the US. I wanted to get a gun about 5 years ago so I started reading on the gun law and figured out how I generally am not allowed to use a gun out of the shooting range. The bow was a perfect replacement however.
Also, 20 years? Did the robber get killed there?
I doubt they would had that guy do 20 years for just attempted murder or whatever they want to call it.
>>708109876
no nig is dumb enough to try and take my shit
>>708110093
Yeah the guy killed him. Im assuming you live in Canada?
>>708110210
I live in east Europe. Gun laws are very strict around here.
>>708107911
Because these are the only guns I need. Hrrrrrrnnnnn!!
>>708108710
Imagine breaking into a house and taking an arrow to the knee. Brutal.
>>708107911
NZ has strict gun laws and next to no shootings, no need.
Even if I had the inclination my mental health record would disallow me obtaining a license.
>>708110093
Let me put this in terms that are more easy to understand. In cases of home defense where a weapon is fired, the prosecutors and defense will be looking at all aspects of that situation under a microscope. They call it, the totality of the circumstances.
One thing I've been taught through my gun group is that you have to be in fear for your life and in imminent risk of harm. If an intruder is in your home and you have your bow and you shoot him the second you see him, you will be screwed.
At that point, you do not know if he has a weapon, you do not know if he has your property, and you do not know if be will cause you any harm, he could very well just run away.
>>708107911
Because there's no point in owning a gun where I live. If someone breaks and enters they don't EXPECT me to have a gun, and therefor carry a gun themselves. Our police actually works.
>>708110673
Implying gun control keeps guns away from criminals. Unless your police have a 15 second response time I got some bad news for you
>>708110642
Under my country's laws a bow is not considered a weapon. Legally there is no difference between shooting the burglar in the leg and breaking his leg with a plank
>>708111042
What country are you from?
>>708107911
BECAUSE SWEDEN SUCKS ASS
>>708111002
No criminal carries a gun here, because they don't NEED it. It would be foolish getting locked up on gun charges when you robbed some kid off their phone. I have no beef with the mafia or any organized criminals, they are the only ones carrying guns.
This has nothing to do with gun control, as you americans put it, it has to do with the fact that people here don't resolve to violence as quickly as you ameritards do.
>>708107911
I do own guns
>>708110069
show me the peer-reviewed paper about god existing and mandating only u to have guns.
I dont own a car, so the jokes on u - it makes it even more suitable for my point, since i have free public transportation. And the point against sport stands
shill
>>708110123
so u dont need it.
>>708111225
Implying criminals follow the law. You liberal cucks are so stupid haha. When will you learn?
>>708111002
Good luck having a any response time when you're awoken by the cold steel of a .45 pressed against your skull. What the fuck are YOU going to do when you're surprised and is clearly trying to get to your gun. Do you think the burglar will wait for you to get it, or will he shoot you at the blink of an eye?
>>708107911
because i live in an apartment behind 3 locked doors,
nigga gets in here he can have my shit, hell i'll help him load it in his welfare-mobile he's earned it
>>708111356
You absolute mongrel, just because a drug dealer risks going to jail for slinging dope doesn't mean he wants to get locked up for gun charges, which looks WAAAAAAAY worse here. It's not about following the law, it's about not needing to break it. I'd rather RISK getting my phone stolen than shot because the fucker thinks I'm reaching for a gun.
>>708111185
I live in east Europe. As I said before I have read a lot about gun and weapon laws.
As the laws put it, a weapon is anything that has a projectile moving through a barrel. Meaning a blowpipe is considered a weapon but a bow is not.
>>708111528
More specifically? I want to look at the law myself
>>708111481
Well that's you not me, I'd rather shoot the fucker.
>>708107911
Had a couple of, during mandatory military service.
Average girl in my country, can probably take an average U.S. male, when both bare arms.
Wish it weren't so, but at least we don't carry weapons just for fun.
>>708111481
Hahahah you know you just sound like a big pussyboy faggot to me. Perhaps once mohommad finally takes over and you are forced to face mecca and bow down 7 times per day you will change your mind.
>>708111481
Either way you're reaching for something. I'd rather be able to defend myself and hopefully help someone who intends to hurt others go to jail.
>just because a drug dealer risks going to jail for slinging dope doesn't mean he wants to get locked up for gun charges, which looks WAAAAAAAY worse here
In the philipines drug dealing results in a death sentence. Do you think they wont be carrying weapons? In America, drug dealers get double digit sentences. Do you think they won't be ready to fight?
What if someone wants to steal your phone and then continues to fuck with you because you're a huge pussy. In my town we haven't had a homicide since the late 90s; but just a few weeks ago a man was harassed on his lawn and then stabbed to death by two local kids ages 14 and 16. Probably wishes he had something to protect himself with.
>>708111528
Maybe your specific countrys laws. In america a firearm has to have a projectile propelled by a chemical reaction. A bow is just a bow.

They are carltagorized as Assault Weapons, not assault rifles. There is a difference. One being fully automatic, the other being a fabricated buzzword to describe a cosmetic features of guns deemed "scary looking".
>>708114512
Assault rifle is defined as a select-fire rifle that uses an intermediate caliber. It's why gun control groups switched to assault weapon.
Because I'm not fat and incompetent enough to
>>708113480
I believe he was referring to the fact that you used the buzzword 'assault rifle'.
As that specifically means a firearm in an intermediate round(medium size bullet) that is specifically select fire(can do semi and automatic fire).
>>708112661
edgy. I guess you don't waste your time on the computer or watching tv either; oh enlightened one.
>>708114415
After service for a small fee you are allowed to keep your rifle. So... that would make it select fire still.

You my friend, are in need of a VEPR for that collection.
>>708115300
the stock on that gun .. thats a joke right?
I own a Mossberg Maverick 88 (economy version of the 500) 12g shotgun.
I spent a lot of time researching and weighing out what I needed, and a shotgun really fit the bill the most. Unmatched for home defense with 00 Buck shells, capable of hunting with a rifled slug, and fun to play with at the range with bird shot.
I live in NJ, which hates guns as much as California does. You can not get a license to carry at all, so it didn't need to be a hand gun. We're a castle doctrine with duty to retreat. If someone breaks in, you have to prove that 1. the intruder threatened your life, and 2. you attempted to get away from them and had no choice but to fire.
AND, the reason an AR rifle didn't meet my needs, is that it's illegal to use a rifle in home defense in this state, because of over penetration. So, an AR-style rifle wouldn't be any good.
Shotgun meets my needs.

No. Stocks on pistols used to be quite the popular thing around WW1. Look it up.
>>708115554
No, the high bore axis gives the gun a lot of flip. The stock assists in accuracy and follow up shot as well as acts as the firearms holster

and that the Star wars blasters were built on those with loads of extra gubbins glued on, and ww2 Sten/stirling submachine guns for the stormtroopers.

You're right, the framers of the Bill of Rights didn't say God created them, they said they are inalienable rights granted at birth to all people.
Rights by which neither man nor government could infringe upon - the right to worship as they please and speak freely without fear of government prosecution, the right to own arms by which to defend themselves from hostilities regardless of source, the right to be free of unreasonable searches and seizures by their government, etc.
These rights are bestowed upon all citizens regardless of where they come from, or the circumstances of their birth - poor or wealthy, mansion or hovel, healthy or sickly.
These are the injustices they fought against at the time the Bill was written, it was the injustices that had been endured for centuries prior - those with power took and used those from those without.
The Bill of Rights does not grant these basic human rights to be able to live decently from those who are in power - it limits the powers that be in favor of those who otherwise couldn't do it for themselves. It seems to make all men, big and small, young and old, equal in what they may do to live their life as they see fit as long as they do not interfere with the lives of their fellow citizens.
And that is why the Bill of Rights, and Constitution in general, is great.
Our forefathers were wise enough to know that the injustices they were fighting against then would continue to occur, because people are selfish, greedy and misguided like you. However they wanted to include even you into the benefits of what they had penned, so while you can speak freely your opinions on things you dislike, I and everyone else can freely ignore your complaints and blathering as long as you keep to yourself and do not attempt to interfere in our lives.
It's as simple as that - your opinion is just that - an opinion and as such has little to no regard on what any of us do, own, say, or enjoy.
Have a good day.
haven't bought one yet. i plan on getting a shotgun and pistol
>>708116752
ah yes, vaguely remembering now - 9mm ones have the "9" carved in the stock painted red, dont they?
>>708117047
A lot of the later ones did to avoid confusion of loading in the wrong ammunition. Ive seen some shady or uneducated gun shops simply assume its a 9mm because of the grips. I have one in 9mm but it lacks the iconic red 9.
tldr check the roll mark on the barrel and the chamber itself to determine caliber.

Why does that even matter? Are you implying that people should only own things that they need? You could also rent a car every time you wanted to drive somewhere, but that is completely irrelevant.

There's no need to own anything at all for recreation. Thankfully, decent societies aren't based solely upon necessity.
>>708118948

You can get the .22LR version and shoot both, or better yet, get the .22 magnum with the .22LR cylinder for all 3 cartridges.

>>708119079
im implying threads like this r fuckin dumb and ppl, who dont own guns r not afraid niggers will rape them, or they dont need to cough up all the money to buy the gun, if they shoot for target practice sporadically.

No...idiot. He said that people own them for recreation. NOT to feel secure.

I live in a modern country where arming civilians is viewed as encouraging violent disagreement, much the same way as the US army knows that allowing its soldiers to bear arms in non combative activities would be stupid. Stupid Americans already 50 years behind the modern world they are going to end up like some third world shit hole in the next 50 years. Oh look they murder more of themselves than their gung ho armies do.

To be fair, thats mostly poor black people. If you have an address in my zip code you have roughly the same risk of dying by homicide (gun related or otherwise) as if you lived in Belgium.

Guns are not toys. You'd know this if you knew anything at all about them or had any experience around them whatsoever.
>>708121218
White Americans, like White Swiss, have trivially low gun crime rates.
The US has a nigger problem, and anyone who encounters our niggers hates them (including other niggers) unless they have fetish issues.
The US is rather peaceful, and shitskin v. shitskin murder doesn't change that. Don't live with them. It's quite easy to avoid niggers. I do.
>>708121070
they still failed to show he used the term for some malicious purpose, or negatively, or whatever.
NATO uses NATO rounds for, im sure, assaults. Is all your definition quotations r supposed to show how weak "assault rifles" r, cuz they r not using .50 cal. ammo and therefore r safe, weak, an not worthy of media slander?

I started shooting when I was 9 years old, most kids in my town started younger.
The only time a kid blows his head off is when the parents don't teach the kid how to shoot... or when the kid is just fucking retarded. For every kid that accidentally kills himself there's 100,000+ who are completely fine.

The NRA represents mainstream gun owners. The scared folks at the fringe aren't screaming about "assault weapon" or magazine capacity bans, they're buying up 80% receivers that don't legally count as guns with cash, drilling some holes, and making ghost guns by the thousands.
And thats the tip of the iceberg.
>>708121565
>accidentally
Even then its usually denial.
>>708121565
>accidents don't happen with children and fuck those that do anyway
kids accidentally kill each other and even adults, your 100,000:1 ratio is hopelessly naive and inaccurate, and could only be possible if you actually included all the children who DON'T have access to guns.
>>708121737
its as i said. Assault rifle has select fire and intermediate cartridges. Whats an intermediate? 5,56 is. The thing ar15 uses. Ar15 is assault rifle. And why its wrong to use "assault rifle"? Cuz its more specific than a "weapon"? Cuz media used it in bad context?
U r making it a buzzword. He used it as he shouldve. He has no assault rifles. He doesnt need to tactic around with ar15
>>708121836
NRA represents gun manufacturers.
They care about sales and no amount of gun violence or accidental death will ever mean anything at all to them. Gun owners contribute to a crooked political system by supporting the NRA.
>>708120036
>bikes r rentable. I also mentioned i have acces too public transport for free. Kitchen utensils cost a few moneys, while getting rights to own guns, guns and ammo is expensive.
There is no place to rent bikes in my area. There is no public transport in my area.
Silverware is extremely expensive as are plates and pans.
A 200 dollar dining set that you use once a year vs a 200 dollar 22 rifle I can shoot every day 200 times for a few bucks... hmm.
>my hobbies r not buying the guns im using on the shooting range.
I don't shoot at a range. I have woods and open fields and quarry to shoot in. I don't need to pay someone to use their land.
>There's no need to own anything at all for recreation.
>and decent humans r not judged based on throwing money away to impress others
How are these two things related at all. Who is being impressed when you're alone listening to the radio shooting soda cans...
>u need a license to drive and continuously pump fuel into this.
Well no, you dont need a license to purchase a car. To legally drive yes, but not to purchase and own.

So you think that people having firearms increases homicide? Boy do I have news for you. You should probably do some research on the cdc website.
>>708122039
Let me give you a source, check table 18.
http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr65/nvsr65_04.pdf
586 total unintentional firearm-related deaths for 2014. In a country with 350m people.
>>708122076
>>708122076
>can't grasp the difference between semi-automatic and full-automatic
>>708122473
b-but it looks scary dammit!
>>708122179
You realize less than 10% of gun owners are part of the NRA right?...
That's like making a racially motivated statement based entirely on the blacklivesmatter group.
>>708122039
There are between 80 and 120 million gun owners in America. If only 0.2% of those gun owners have young children, that's still more than 100,000. Very very few children die of accidental self-inflicted shootings each year.
Blame the parents for it. Don't blame fuckers like me who don't even have kids.
>>708122179
Are you a member? Know many members? Have you seen their financials? You can assert that they represent manufacturers all you want, but the majority of their operating budget is coming from members.
>>708122467
>out of 350M people
so you DO include everyone that doesn't own guns. Do you see how fucking pointless that is?
>>708121474
Yes but if you were to ask a Swiss citizen why he owns a gun he will tell you it is to defend his country while and American citizen will tell you it is to defend his family. Big difference, a Swiss citizen only envisages using the gun for disputes that many of the countries leaders have already debated on, while a dumb fuck American thinks he can be judge and jury on the spot for what ever the fuck he deems a threat to his muh family.
>>708122076
>And why its wrong to use "assault rifle"?
Because the term describes fully automatic rifles. They are functionally entirely different from civilian rifles. If you can't pick up on this even after reading the posts multiple times, I'm not sure what to tell you.
>>708118633
It specifically says arms - arms means any tool or device that may be used to defend yourself with, including firearms.
The Supreme Court says you're wrong.
>>708122690
Okay, out of 100,000,000 people.
>>708107911
To protect my family from wild niggers
>>708122467
>>708122690
Those unintentional deaths are mostly adults.
The fact is your kid is more likely to be struck by fucking lightning than they are to die of a negligent or accidental gunshot wound.
>>708122591
>Blame the parents
sure, but accidents DO HAPPEN
I blame the parents for endangering their children, but it's not different than what parents with guns and living kids have done. It's about luck, so I blame any irresponsible gun owners equally.
>>708122690
Ok, 586 out of 120 million for a rate of about 1 in 200,000 (and thats total accidental deaths, not just minors), before you consider that the "people who own guns" estimates doesn't include children in homes with guns.
>>708122776

>>708122179
You're a fucking idiot. The NRA has 5,000,000+ members. Most of what they do is training for concealed carry permits, lobbying to prevent further restrictions, and paying the legal fees of ordinary folks who got screwed over by a messed up, overly-restrictive system.
The NRA is the largest civil rights organization in the world.
>>708122866
Blame whoever you want, but keep your laws to yourself.
>>708122737
There are actually specific use of force laws in every state, they're fairly uniform. Hell, when Barack Obama was still in Illinois he proposed an amendment that gave people criminal and civil immunity when they shot someone in self defense. Its not even controversial.
>>708122858
>more likely to be struck by lightning
that is an obvious lie
The media doesn't report accidental gunshot deaths, especially for children, but it happens quite often. They like to focus on intentional killings: more action less tragedy.

I'm selfish? Your the one who wants to regulate and control a group you know almost nothing about just to make you feel safe. You're not just selfish, you're sociopathic.
Why does the US army support gun control if it is a bad idea. When you are not engaged in combat you are not allowed to carry your weapons off base or in social areas, why ? Because humans are humans and having weapons around in a social environment tends to make any violence much worse.
If you take typical American arguments then it would make perfect sense to have all the military hardware distributed amongst the population, they don't do it because humans are humans and having weapons all over the place is a bad idea.
>>708123006
>takes money from all these stupid tools, so they couldn't POSSIBLY have other motives
Goddamn you're fucking naive
NRA is a political machine that cares about conservative politicians more than its own members.
>>708123006
I'd just like to again remind you, they make up less than 10% of admitted gun owners in the US.
Less than 10%.
>>708123250
No, that's an abortion of law.
NRA literally censors doctors and academic research in order to suppress gun death statistics and keep sales high.
>>708123306

And then you call other people autistic...
Do you see how you come off as dumb?
>>708123314
No, the NRA cares about what its members tell them they want. The reality is that the mainstream of gun owners do not give a shit about accidental fatalities or gang bangers killing other gang bangers over gang banger shit, they care about concealed carry, Castle Doctrine, not having a duty to retreat, and being able to buy what they want.
Thats the problem here: you cannot conceive that millions of Americans hold such wildly different values from your own that they would fund the NRA. Its easier for you to imagine that millions of people are stupid than that your opinions might not be nearly universal.
>>708123336
I know a lot of folks who aren't members of the NRA because they feel they're too far left and give too much ground on law-and-order bullshit.
>>708123443
Its not about keeping sales high, its about keeping people who don't own guns from getting their shit together. Guns sell themselves, we just want to be able to buy them.

wot. It's that kind of leap on logic that makes people think you're either a child or have the mind of a child.
I'd be more worried about knives. No background check no waiting period, no community.
If the reasons the pro gun people give for allowing the easy ownership of guns was valid then when countries have problems and local militias take over the running of the country things should improve but instead the country descends into chaos because everybody has a gun, everybody thinks they are right and their version of justice is the best and wholesale slaughter is the result.
If you are worried about defending yourself learn martial arts you fat fucks, fucking egotistical cowards who immediately thinking of defeating their enemy using massive force than hard learned skill. Cancer of the planet.

You can generally count on one hand the number of gun crimes committed in Chicago by people with FOID cards. The Chicago Police Department even has an algorithm which creates a list of people most likely to be involved in a shooting as either a victim or a shooter, based on arrest records, police contacts, gang affiliations and the like. In a city with 2 million residents, CPD reported that 78% of homicide victims and 84% of nonfatal shooting victims were on the list. Milwaukee found that around 85% of victims and suspects had prior criminal records. Baltimore and New Orleans have reported similar numbers.
>>708125657
Its still a minority. The tally as of this morning in Chicago is 537 shot and killed, 2936 shot and wounded, 94.8% of victims either black or hispanic.
Shootings are a gang and poverty problem, not a gun problem.
>>708126285

Sure, you're going to send in your tax stamp and fill out the paperwork and wait 6 months for them to send you a letter back, give them 3 forms of id, fingerprints and the testimony of 10 other people and get your 'machinegun' hopefully under two years later.
You have no idea what the fuck you're talking about you eurocuck.

Just now America is going to finally realise why having more guns than people is a bad idea when they have another civil war.
Look at Venezuela too, Chavez armed the population to the teeth, see what happens there when a large minority decide they don't like the outcome of an election.
A modern democracy cannot have the population armed or minorities will take up arms against democratic decisions.

You dance with who brung you. This is the system we have. Voting doesn't matter, only influence. Don't be angry that we're better at the game than you.
Even if that wasn't the case, the overwhelming majority of guns in the US have never been registered. I do not personally know any gun owners who would register a weapon, turn in a weapon that was recently banned, or otherwise comply with laws they felt were unreasonable. Its not big talk, either, because thats exactly how we acted in Chicago prior to Heller and McDonald. I had handguns when handguns were banned. I carried when carry was banned. I didn't register when registration was required. I didn't get the CFP when it went into effect. Twenty years I've been doing whatever the hell I want without any consequences and even then I don't know anyone who has ever been shot, murdered, or committed a non-administrative gun crime.

Can you not fucking read? We're saying the same thing but you totally missed all hints of satire.
>responsible gun owners
>oxymoron much?
So if 400whatever kids die out of 75million people(and thats just admitted and legally purchased firearm owners) what about the 74,999,600 people? Are they all irresponsible for what .00000000008% of their countries population accidently do?...

mass shootings are not a gang or poverty problem
they're a GUN HOBBYIST problem. The worst part about you faggots is your slimy attempts to avoid any sort of responsibility for your own culture.

>pool background checks
>10 day waiting period to buy a pool
>felons can't own pools
>no high capacity pools over 500 gallons
come at me faggot
>>708126758
Ah I misread your original post. I thought you were saying any ordinary person could.
>>708126897
you suck at statistics, really, stop trying
more than just kids kill themselves out of that 75M
>>708126929
mass shootings aren't statistically a problem, period. Total deaths per year of mass shootings doesn't even break a few hundred out of a country of 350 million. Statistically irrelevant.
>>708126929
So jamal who wants to shoot up his neighboring gang purchases a firearm for his loved hobby of shooting?
I mean I totally get the troll but there are really people that think like this anon.
>>708126539
The "fee" (tax) is $200 for a MG on a form 4. The big expense is due to the limited number of MGs available due to the Hughes Amendment which (mostly) stopped the availability of new MGs for civilians in May 86.
Last I heard the way was > year w/ the changes to trusts this summer.
>>708126758
trusts/corps have no limit on how many MGs they can own, but they all have to go through the form 4 process
>>708109846
Just pissed cause you cant own badass shit cause of your beta country laws. Fuck you
>>708126958
>build a pool in less than 10 days
you're pretty stupid
You realize that CARS are regulated more heavily than guns right? If gun owners were forced to buy insurance to cover their innately dangerous hobby, they would probably spaz out.
>>708126929
Want to quote me how many deaths a year result from those, controlling for gang bangers doing spray and pray from a moving vehicle?
>>708124058
Only if you combine the GDP of almost every single country in Europe vs just the US. Each European country has the buying power of just one state in the US.
>>708127057
I thought we were talking about accidental child firearm deaths. So even if that 75mil was accurate(which it's not. at all.), 21k suicides a year from firearms. Who are they hurting besides themselves. If someone intends to kill themselves not a lot you can do to stop them.
Or are you changing your tune now because you haven't got shit to say.

CARS are regulated more heavily than guns right?
>no background checks for cars
>felons can own cars
>can get a DL at age 16 without a background check
fuckin lol
>>708127185
True, but I'm not talking about buying a MG for a corp. I'm talking about buying a corp which owns a MG. Lots of people guy the MG w/ a corp, and have that the only thing the corp owns. You can sell a corp.
>>708127078
>aren't statistically a problem
not for you, but you have to understand that not everyone is a FUCKING SOCIOPATH
We don't ignore things that kill too few people to have an impact on our population, that's just fucking retarded.
>>708127248
If you made guns more like cars, you realize the federal background check system would be eliminated and anyone 16 or older could get a carry permit without a background check, right?
>>708127405
Going the corp route is pretty much the only way to get SBS/SBR if you live in one of the antigun counties in Illinois.
>>708122834
so why do u regulate only some, u tool?
Because I'm not afraid of:
1. Other people
2. Being relieved of any of my possessions
3. Dying
I've never needed one, ever. I'm a pacifist, and have worked as an orderly/non-injury takedown and patient restraint instructor. I would give an intruder/assailant comforting words as I disabled them from harming me or themselves. If they had a gun and shot me, I'd be happy to go to heaven :)
>>708127393
>no background checks
they will destroy your license and throw you in prison for driving a car for SO MANY REASONS
>felons can own cars
sure, they should be able to vote too
>can get a DL license at 16
and guns are intentionally manufactured and sold to children much younger than 16.
You fucking lose.
>>708127435
Haha, go figure. I was wondering how long it would take for your arguments to devolve into emotionally charged drivel. Not that they weren't always that.
>>708127435
Look. Pandering to emotions is one way to twist people into believing what you believe. But any informed person(not a sociopath) understands that death is a very real thing in the world. Life isnt some disney movie bullshit where everyone lives happily ever after.
Get your head out of your ass.
The only one being unreasonable or sociopathic is you.

If California was a country, it would be the 6th richest in the world. More than France
