Say the government did confiscate semiautomatic rifles without any sort of push back and then mass shooters start resorting to the guns that we are allowed to have, won't there eventually be a push for bans on them? They want a ban for sure, they're just not stupid enough to push for it without lots of support. So they approach it from this angle instead. <cite>pls posted [p:927367373] in Remember w...

action52 09/13/19 12:37:50 AM #5:	Almost no democrats are trying to ban all guns. There sure as hell are plenty of Democrats who want to ban guns like AR-15s and AK-47s that have no place outside of a battlefield. We want restrictions on guns. If we could get our way, access would be limited for those who can't responsibly handle them, the amount of guns floating around in the USA would be reduced, and the most dangerous types of guns would be illegal. However there is no way the Democratic party as it is now would try to take away all guns. And Beto is completely within the bounds of this, so stop trying to make Beto's remarks into something they aren't. --- i am truley sorry for your lots <cite>action52 posted [p:927367543] in Remember w...

Almost no democrats are trying to ban all guns. no, theres not very many that want ALL guns gone. however there is a good chunk that want all semi-auto guns gone which take up a large majority of firearms and most democrats want to get rid of AR's and AK's which are also in 15+ million citizens hands and saying AR15's only have a purpose on the battlefield is bullshit. The AR platform is used for pretty much everything now which is why its so popular. and that doesnt even fucking matter, guns like the AR or AK take up something like .3% of total firearm deaths and yet those types of guns are the evil ones that the democrats want to disarm the populace over. basically, "we dont want to take or ban your guns, just 90% of them". <cite>Dark_Spiret posted [p:927367903] in Remember w...

So taking those guns away would completely disarm Americans. it leads into the notion that the AR and AK are some how more deadly than any of the other hundred different types of magazine fed semi-auto rifles on the market (despite their death counts being the lowest of any type of firearm) especially with manufacturers knowing how to skirt the law when certain firearm bans go into effect thanks to gun grabbers knowing jack shit about guns. so with that you then run into the problem of people just switching over to those other weapons and losing no killing power in the process. so then the gun control crowd comes back and tries to gobble up even more of the pie with more and more bans and the whole thing just keeps going until no one can own anything. its already happening in several states and especially in countries around the world. the '94 AWB showed that banning those types of weapons had either no effect or it was extremely negligible. the gun control crowd called it a success as in less of those weapons were used in killings while ignoring that the overall death counts remained consistent with previous years (or fallowed the downward trend of violent crimes from years prior to the AWB) as killers just used other types of available firearms and that deaths by rifles already took up an extremely small percentage of crimes largely negating any real effect.
