I didn't say any of that. In regards to doomsday, would you question someone that stocks water and food in case of disaster?
Because getting worked up AFTER it passes doesn't do much good, does it? Did you follow all the internet piracy and privacy shit that congress was trying to pass? CISPA and that other one.... anyway..... peopled raged and it failed. If you wait until after the fact, it might be too late.
I have one rifle. A .22 semi-automatic that holds 18 rounds. I got it when I was 15 to shoot rabbits off of my grandparents' property, and it hasn't been fired in almost 20 years. Yet this is considered an "assault weapon".
What concerns me most is how some people just seem willing to allow their "leaders" to have weapons that aren't available to the general public. One would think that American citizens and how our country was formed would be a bit more protective of their 2nd Amendment rights.
Some people have an alarmingly blind faith in the government to take care of them. They question nothing, they challenge nothing, and if you don't agree you are paranoid or a conspiracy theorist because the government would never hurt us.
I agree, but I also think a big part of it is in party politics and the current political climate. That the major media is basically just a press release co-op for the Democratic Party now doesn't help, either.
Explain to me how going to a range and shooting at paper is any different than going to a batting cage or going to a driving range.
Batting cage - You are practicing hitting a ball Driving range - practicing hitting a ball Shooting range - Practicing killing something I'll just never understand how someone gets off shooting guns for fun.
If you need 18 rounds just to kill a rabbit maybe you should try shooting something that moves a little slower. Slugs? Cans? Any white guy who has ever played for Gonzaga?
Are you telling me there cannot be a law passed that runs counter to the Constitution? Really? M'kay.
