I don’t want to feed the troll anymore, so I’m going to respond to him here, so I can point out he’s a troll. And a fucking willfully ignorant idiot who wants to shit all over the Constitution rather than honestly trying to amend it. Response follows:

It is true, exactly as I stated. Your original rationalization was bullshit, and then you shifted the goalposts and added other metrics than “necessity”. Yes, I know, you got caught making an ignorant argument and then changed it without admitting your first one was wrong. Good show.

Wrong.

Already done several times in this thread by several other people, including bob who just posted to you specifically. You accidentally didn’t see all the times the data has been posted and discussed in this thread.  
I’m sure.

> “Every weapon is dangerous” is a pointless non-sequitor intended to bolster your argument with weasel words and mindless rhetoric. Yes, duh, weapons are dangerous, but that’s not why I want gun control. Hell, every THING is dangerous, from plastic bags you can choke on to a necklace that can get caught.

So you’ve now admitted that in addition to “necessity”, “danger” is also a bullshit rationalization. You’re doing a bangup job here.

> Assault weapons are useful in self defense? Yeah, sure, if you’re defending the president.

Have you, perhaps, considered learning WTF you’re talking about? Just a suggestion. Again your “sarcasm” just reveals that you’re making shit up as fast as you can type, and you are willfully ignorant of the facts. There’s a reason why the secret service generally uses automatic weapons and not “assault weapons” to protect the President. But of course, your attempts to destroy part of our Constitution have to be based on less than honest fear mongering, eh?

> What, a robber busts into your house and you aim the minigun at his face? You routinely strap AK47’s to you back when you go to Burger King?

Your argument would look less laughably ignorant if you had a clue. Even a basic clue. A minigun is not an “assault weapon”, the AK that’s an “assault weapon” is functionally no different from any other hunting rifle.  
You are ignorant and simply making shit up.

Name five hunting rifles. :rolleyes:  
Who do you think you’re fooling? We all know you’re just making this up as you go along and you know nothing about guns. Here’s a hint, you’d be stupid if you’d rather someone take a shot at you with a bolt action thirty ought six rifle than with an AK at 150 yards.

Your guessing skills are about as accurate as your research skills.  
Idiot.
