Yeah, that's why I don't support banning guns. The banning of semi-automatics and assault shotguns in Australia was a knee jerk reaction to the Port Arthur Massacre. Tighter registration protocools were needed, not bans.Quote:

Okay, so it looks like John Kerry is taking the advice of the wrong people and is shifting into Howard Dean mode. Instead of talking about his plan for things he is attacking Bush. Here's a quote from Imus:
If he keeps this up... I give his campaign 3 more weeks of viability. And that's me being generous.Quote:
KERRY: I mean, what you ought to be doing and what everybody in America ought to be doing today is not asking me; they ought to be asking the president, What is your plan? What's your plan, Mr. President, to stop these kids from being killed? What's your plan, Mr. President, to get the other countries in there? What's your plan to have 90 percent of the casualties and 90 percent of the cost being carried by America?
IMUS: We're asking you because you want to be president.
That was hilarious.Quote:

... That's all I have to contribute here =|
M203 Grenade Launchers fall under the destructive weapons catagory and are extremely difficult to acquire, even for dealers. We're not talking about RPG's, Grenade launchers or mortars we're talking about for the most part semi-automatic rifles with detachable magazines and in some instances automatic rifles under the same category. The 1986 ban of automatic weapons and whatnot doesn't make it impossible to get automatic weapons, it just makes it extremely expensive to apply for a liscence.Quote:

In my viewpoint of things full freedom and liberty leads to destruction, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the government should dissallow people to protest and be put away for reasons such as not supporting a certain government action.
I hate the way Kerry's trying to win the election without any kind of plan for Iraq. It's almost as retarded as the time Bush invaded the country without one.Quote:

I still don't see the logic in that.Quote:

God bless America.
The real reason...http://gwbush04.com/boot/i/foxdecidesbush1.jpg
I said in a previous post that I have no problem with gun registry, I think it should be like driving a car, you should need a liscence but I'm against banning guns.Quote:

The Remington 11-87 is a good semi-auto shotgun, I've fired one before, it can only take 7 rounds though. In referance to the CAR rifle you could spring for an AR-15 Carbine which I've also fired (and wasn't really impressed with), you won't be able to find an automatic version but the AR-10 is a lot better then the AR-15 series as it uses a .308 instead of a .223 catridge.Quote:
