Note: It is not you that people are worried about. It is the idiots that go out and shoot other people and some times dozens at a time. What is your solution to that problem? The M16/AR15 is a weapon made to kill people with. It blows the body it hits apart. Shoot a deer with one and there is very little meat left that is eatable. What is our solution to the problem of people using these weapons for mass shootings?
It's good to see that SNOKING doesn't confine his ignorance to the Politics forum.
Why should the rest of you miss out?
Anyway, the 5.56mm does not tear bodies apart.
It's not supposed to do that.
If you want to see lots of mangled flesh as the result of one loud bang then you should see what the typical deer rifle will do.
Where I live, you can't use a 5.56/.223 on deer.
It's too small to effect clean, one-shot kills. Small (55-65 grain?) fully jacketed bullets, though they can kill, aren't actually made for killing 100-200 pound mammals - humans included.
If you actually understood the purpose of the 2nd Amendment, you'd know that the reason the citizenry is entitled to AR15's is because the military has them - though (even if the nitwits in the media can't make the distinction) the military versions have full-auto and select-fire (3 rounds?) where the civilian weapons do not.
That'supposed to keep the government in awe of the people.
Continual efforts - by leftist turds like Obama and Hillary - to demonize/ stigmatize/ban/confiscate these weapons is sure evidence that the 2nd Amendment is still keeping them in awe, and they don't like it.
Now I'll grant you that these mass-shootings are horrific, but the total numbers killed by scary black rifles pale in comparison with those killed with other types of guns.
Do not the lives of those others matter to SNOKING, or is his pea brain so stunned by the scary black rifle that he can't see the majority?
