December 20, 2006MA Mayor Wants AR-15 BanBecause someone used one in commission of a crime, they should all be banned:
Another of those semi-automatics that "spray" bullets... By Lang's logic, since a revolver was once used to kill someone, they should all be banned. Actually, a baseball bat has been known to be used so... Posted by Jeff Soyer at December 20, 2006 07:28 AM Comments
Just more feel good bullshit. A Remington 870 with 00 buck has it all over any rifle at close range. Jack. Posted by: Jack Lorenz at December 20, 2006 08:12 AMFriend I have fired pretty much everytime of fully-automatic weapon the US Army had to offer....I would take that Remington 870 any day of the week. Posted by: jeff at December 20, 2006 09:35 AMFederalist papers and the Constitution, anyone? The reason civilians ought to have that kind of firepower (and more IMHO) is to keep folks like hizzoner the mayor from telling us which hand to wipe ourselves with and how much we should give him as a Christmas bonus. It may not have a place in HIS kind of society but it sure does in a free society. Posted by: doug in colorado at December 20, 2006 09:42 AMA Remington 30-06 hunting rifle could have been used instead of an AR-15 with much more deadly consequences. A 30-06 hunting rifle has much more power than the AR-15 .223 round. A Remington 30-06 semi-automatic firearm has just as much "firepower" as the AR-15 and fires a round that has much more actual energy. A Remington 30-06 semi-automatic firearm has a detachable magazine just like the AR-15, and therefore the number of rounds it can hold is limited not be the firearm itself but by the detachable magazine. A bolt action hunting rifle could also have been used and been just as deadly as the AR-15. When comparing a semi-automatic and a bolt action what difference does it make if five rounds can be fired in 2 seconds for a semi-automatic or maybe 5 seconds or so for a bolt action? Five well placed rounds from a bolt action are just as deadly as five well placed rounds from a semi-automatic. But, of course, these politicians don't want facts to get in the way of their anti-gun agenda. Posted by: Brent at December 20, 2006 02:51 PMLawyers and mayors have killed people too. Let's ban them FIRST. Posted by: Mark Rosenbaum at December 20, 2006 07:38 PMHeck, he could have used a Krag or a SMLE... Posted by: DirtCrashr at December 20, 2006 08:01 PMAt the time the scary-looking rifle ban was first being promoted, a review of Chicago crime statistics showed that more people had been murdered by strangulation with undergarments than by being shot with military-caliber rifles. Ban the bra! Posted by: triticale at December 20, 2006 08:54 PMHas there ever been a crime committed with a limousine like the mayor rides in? He'd better walk from now on. Posted by: Jeffro at December 20, 2006 09:16 PMHeck, I say ya do it the way it gets done in the wild wild west (I'm from Vegas). Find the fellow that shot that nutjob and give him a bottle of whiskey and say "Thanks." Don't start banning things. Keep everything free and open and reward good conduct- especially when it punishes bad! Posted by: Tom at December 26, 2006 08:47 PMthe comment input form disappears. Your comments are welcome. You don't need to enter a URL and you don't need a "valid" email address, either. Note though that MT Blacklist is installed to flag suspiciously spam-like strings. Unfortunately, because of the bastard spammers, the strings "google.com" and "yahoo.com" (even in your email address) are currently banned as well. So are strings such as "cialis" (a common spam) which rules out words such as "socialism". Try putting a hyphan in a word like that. By Golly, you're reading an archived post.
