And you, as a veteran, have direct knowledge of this very topic because you served "in the shit" and know exactly how it goes down.

More like he was also TRAINED, EDUCATED and Also EXPERIENCED to be fair. All the Parkland Kids "EXPERIENCED" could be descreibed as Extreme School House Bullying.

As a vet, can you imagine a Christmas truce ever playing out? (Or any of the various truces that were said to happen organically, and that the brass frowned upon.)

"Hey German buddy, share a fag. We can go back to shooting each other later."

But that did happen. It was the Corrupt Government Leaders on each side that put an END to Peace.

Oh and

Most people here knows nothing of warfare. Most of them views a few warfare movies, now they believe their experts.

There’s a reason guerilla warfare is still to this day one of the best tactics ever implanted in any war.

Vietnam was a good example. A SFC showed us a video in Vietnam of how a Battalion size element were completely wiped out by just a few Vietcong using guerilla tactics.

Afghanistan is another good example of guerilla tactics working.

It’s seems the left somehow believes, if the people were to rise up against a tyrannical government, all we’ll be using are AR’s. These idiots fails to see and the advantage of the Black Market brings. These people Somehow believes it’s hard to buy arms on the black market!

Worse yet, the second we begins to fight, we would be invaded by either Russia, North Korea, ISIs, ISIL or who’s ever our enemies are.

That would never happen in this day age. For the second it begins, morons would go to social media and claims Christmas is racist or phobic to the other races in the world. All this would be happening while those morons are safe in their little underground bunker.

Too paranoid

Please explain why am paranoid?

Imagine if the British Empire was a tad more paranoid a few hundred years ago.

Paranoia is not a bad thing. It’s only bad when it’s all you can think off.

Am I paranoid to believe the US government can become a dictatorship in my lifetime? No I don’t. But do I believe it might happen? Nothing is for sure. It might happen. Should one be ready? Yes. Why? Because the government is an entity being run by human beings, and human beings are corrupt, or essay corruptable.

It's like the guy digging a radioactive bunker to protect himself from a potential nuclear fall out and unintentionally sabotaging the underground water supply while doing so.

Real people are being hurt today by the guns you need to defend yourself from fantasy fears.

And knives, and cars, and fists, and baseball bats. Don't forget those.

Yes real people are being hurt by guns, but it's not unreasonable to be hesitant to pass legislation restricting the liberty and property rights of the entire US population.

It's not just a matter of you can stop people from being killed without having to sacrifice anything of value to do so. It's a matter of to pursue some of these policies you would explicitly necessarily have to restrict the liberty and property rights of every American citizen (and in the case of say a proposed ban on semi-automatic rifles you'd actually have to take people's property by force or threat of force), and that isn't an insignificant cost. Beyond that point there's also the uncertainty of potential other costs that result from the legislation, such as the hypothetical of a tyrannical government, or even on the smaller scale of what if certain people have a harder time getting weapons and then confront genuine threats to their lives they are unequipped to deal with. And furthermore the intended benefit of the legislation isn't even a given, it could be passed with the cost of everyone's liberty to the effect of minimal impact on gun homicides.

I don't think it's irrational or paranoid to approach the subject of what we should get our government to restrict from us with serious hesitancy.

I know this might be controversial to you, but knives, baseball bats and fists are not as dangerous as fuccking AK-47s

Then explain how knives kill more people per year than AK-47s.

Limit all magazines to 10 bullets or less

Enhance mandatory background check requirements and standardize them across all states, including for private sales

We should make sure the National Instant Criminal Background Check System is built for confidence, instead of speed

We could treat firearms like cars — with licensing, registration, and mandatory insurance

Empower the government to actually collect and study information about trends in gun violence

Too paranoid... really? Just think about how many people have been slaughtered by tyrannical governments in the last 100 hundred years. It's not like people are worried about something human beings as a species have actually evolved beyond.

Firefly has 100% faith in the government. BTW, he also thinks that the Trump admin is full of morons, racists and probably Nazis.

You do know when the 2nd amendment was written, there were already fully auto weapons in circulation right?

Acids are also being use in England and Afghanistan.

Slavery is still being practiced on Blacks by Muslims!

Yet, gun! gun! gun!

What about all the guns deaths that aren't from mass shootings, why don't you care about them?

Yet more Blacks are kill in Chicago related to illegal ownerships of handguns? Yet you’re side are nowhere to be seen! Why? Because Blacks killing other Blacks, the innocent ones also, doesn’t fit you’re agenda!

What agenda do you think I have?

You’re citing ban guns, yet you’re refusing to look at the bigger picture.

I’ll say this again, fully auto weapons were around before the 2nd amendment was ever put to paper, let alone thought off.

Knives kill more people each year than semi auto. Handguns kills more people each year. Handguns are also the go to weapon for suicides.

Bad people don’t care about rules and laws. If theirs a will, theirs a way. The black market would actually sky rocket in sales.

Anywhere there’s strict gun laws, more shootings happens.

The agenda I cite is simple. You and your side seem to care more about rhetoric than facts.

What happen was a tragedy, but screaming ban is not gonna make any change.

Let’s say you actually ban all form of guns? You actually believe the evil people that wishes to commit those atrocities won’t just find another way?

Do you even know how easy it is to make an IED in this day and age?
