All Hail the Second Amendment

[Bad Writer]

Second-to-last paragraph for me, KUSA. Living in Detroit and Tucson has taught me that a person, if they are capable, should be ready for anything. I shoot expert on the M9, as the beretta has always been my handgun of choice. It's helpful that it's my issued weapon in the Air Force as well.

We are a society at war with ourselves as well as with much of the world. Gun control in various forms may contain that war, but only a shift in consciousness will end it. That shift must include the realization that power requires more than the means to point, shoot, kill.

The United States isn't ready for that shift. Not by a long shot (pardon the pun).

Hey, you know what? All girls carrying guns are incredibly sexy. Moving on now.

Hmm... pretty sure I made this post just for Losty. To Losty, from me:

I watch Goodfellas just for the scene where Lorraine Bracco shoves a .38 into her panties.

Oh. This might not be the right thread for this. Sorry!

Ya know, I think no one reading this is complaining.

Why?

Chas pretty much summed it up for us.

So for people living in small houses or apartment complexes, would there be a need for rifles of any kind?

Also, when there are bans on certain types of weaponry, I'm all for grandfather clauses. I'm guessing the implementation of a registry would be the antithesis of that, right?

I'm still waiting on the reason to have a registry.

Actually, an AR-15 SBR loaded with <=55g varmint rounds would be perfect for people living in apartment complexes. Light .223 loads fragment, which prevents over-penetration.

Guys, I don't think any of those are safe in an apartment; drywall won't do shit to stop those rounds - they won't fragment. Most defensive rounds will go right through multiple interior walls.

You have to use actual frangible bullets.

It gives me a boner every time.

How about ...

I think we covered the registry well enough. Letting strangers know what's in your home is a bad side effect of such a database.

I certainly agree with that. But what I am still trying to find out is what reason do people have for proposing a national registry?

To what purpose? To accomplish what?

[Bad Writer]

Those questions are precisely why I started posting in this thread. I still don't know, and no one has brought up any good reasons to date.
