The assault weapons ban is a good example of failed policy at attempting to ban specific types of weapons. So are California's current laws (and the resultant "assault weapon" shooting that just took place.)
Fact is, to get real about preventing the type of gun violence that most commonly occurs, handguns of all types should really be top-of-the-list, based on available data concerning which weapons are most frequently used in crime. (If, you know, you think bans are really the most effective way to reduce crime.)
As to revolvers, pump shotguns, and lever guns being less effective? I submit to you that your average criminal simply doesn't take the time to become effective with them. I suppose the semi's are easier to use sans training; but then again WTF do I know? I'm just a gun nut. You'd think if the really lethal "assault weapons" were the deadliest choice out there, hunters would be flocking to them in droves to improve their odds; but that doesn't seem the case.
Go play in the rain philo.

They sure LOCKER.
These "savages" LOcker... the ones that dragged through the streets of Skinny Town and then burned to a crisp five of the US Soldiers that died that day trying to help them locals. Including Gordy and Shugart.
I can post photos of the Skinny Savages torching the bodies and dancing around them, but I that would just get more of the PC'd folks all riled up and I would then get more hate mail for posting reality.
Got an issue with that Locker.
BTW LOcker, we were there to help rid the region of the local "Terrorist" Aidid and his AL Daeda thugs that was murdering by the hundreds, the locals.

As I've written earlier, I generally agree with that statement but they didn't ban "types" so much as they were banning cosmetic features which is silly. We should be limiting the actual characteristics of the guns that provide the lethality such as caliber, rate of fire and magazine capacity as well as the totally legal "ready for modification" features that manufacturers include.
Chief: I'm sorry that your buddies were attacked. It was a horrible day. It still doesn't justify your racism.

Sure is "Very Telling" Locker. Something you haven't clue about. Not one.
Helplessly watching two of your "Shipmates" give their lives so that another can live, who btw both posthumously received the CMH for their unselfish actions, then seeing them get dragged through the streets and then burned to a crisp by the people they were there to help and save.
Yup, "Very telling."
So go off and sniff some more of that glue.... Locker.
It was a horrible day. It still doesn't justify your racism.
"Racism"??? It's called WAR. Something you also have no clue about either HDDJ.

Chuffie why don't you bend up and sniff his anal vapors.
Thanks Frank Zappa for the perfect quote.
I'd rather be a LibTard hand wringer than a ChuffTard hand jobber.

"I hated Somalia and the Skinnies that lived there. Every minute of time I was there only festered my hatred for them pathetic savages."...
What a great representative of America you were...
I have to agree with Locker on this one....

These human beings were "skinny" because they were starving and he uses it as a means to denigrate. Total F*#kHead!
You did your job, you got paid. That's all.
You get no bonus points or extra credit for having served in the military.
You are no hero you are just a miserable turd and a disgraceful human being.

Another "Struck by Lightning" initiated post.
Nice Philo.
"he"?
Dooood. That was the generic term ALL of us gave them savage bad guys. "Us" including the Pakistani's, Indians, FFL's, SAS's etc that were there trying to help in support of seven UN resolutions.
You really are one ignorant stooopid fking moron Philo.
EDIT: The "Skinny's" we were trying to rid the region of, they weren't starving. They were stealing the hundreds of tons of UN Food drops we were there protecting.
80% of my ops while in Somalia included "Vert Repping" sling loads of food to outlying villages. Then orbiting "Locked and Loaded" and protecting the villagers from Aidid's murdering savage thugs.

Guys, I think you should cut chief some slack on this. It's easy for us to judge 20 years later on events occurring half a world away, especially since (I assume) we weren't there. But he was there, in truly horrible situations that, having never served in combat (let alone, the military), I cannot begin to comprehend. I think I would need to walk in his shoes to understand, before judging how he views enemy combatants.

My nephew is an active soldier with multiple decoration and purple hearts plural from repeat deployments in war zones. He is doing his duty and is not an arrogant blowhard about it.
So screw this cutting slack crap. AssHat's past is his. He presents himself in an ugly way and that is what warrants response.
Is anyone else ready for this thread - having been putrified by ChuffChuff - to go away or should it wait for a day or two til the next mass shooting? It is the Christmas season after all and that always brings out the best in people.

I can understand the intent of banning specific calibers; but given the number of calibers available on the market today, and with so many that are specifically designed to be deadly in both handguns and rifles for the specific intent of killing game animals, I don't find such a policy to be reasonable in any sense of the word. If magazine capacity floats your boat, well hey... I guess there's a compromise somewhere. What do you do about lever guns and existing semi-autos, and shotguns that hold more than the allowable number? Many of those are, indeed, in wide circulation and not easily modified from their original design. Would it be fair to require modification or surrender of those weapons? How about the high-cap mags that are currently owned? I suspect, without looking into your previous posts, that it would be expected these weapons/components would be removed from circulation over time.
Would it not be more effective and practical to institute an immediate registration requirement and background NICS check with every sale? No loopholes. Caught with unregistered firearm? Heavy fines and/or jail. Transfer to someone else without conducting NICS check? Same penalty.
This is not to say I would be wild about it, just that I see it as a more effective tool to reduce illegal guns. Along with that I'd like to see better reporting of mental issues to the NICS system. Although in my personal opinion, I don't see picking out specific types of weapons and/or especially specific calibers as being practical.
For example: California bans the 50BMG round. Why? Name some crimes committed with one? And tell me, why just the 50? Why not the 458 Winchester Mag? Or the 450 Nitro Express? Fearmongering and misinformation often seem to rule the day, unnecessarily I might add.

He wasn't talking about "Enemies"...
He was talking about ALL the "Skinnies" living in Somalia...
I can now see why you no longer are employed as a Drug and Alcohol Counselor and are stuck in some room in the desert sniffing glue all day long.
Priceless but, expected.

For all you Lil Chuffie supporters try this; substitute the word Jews for any other of his denigrations and see how sweetly that rolls of your tongue.
