Stop whining baby. It's not a counter. It's a fact. Deal with it.

Then you are not to whine when you feel Trump is stepping on the toes of any amendment.

Your Lord knows very well what is in your heart. Your soul suffices this day as a reckoner against you. I need no witnesses. You do not listen to your soul, but listen instead to your anger and your rage.
I do concede it was a fact. Australia doesn't have a 2nd amendment. This is important. It doesn't mean the pathetic strawman another poster has claimed, in that it is being said that can't ever change.
Rather, this just demonstrates the fact of how different our culture is not just to Australia, but most other countries. Our culture when it comes to free speech and guns is unique in the world. I won't apologize for that or try to penalize law abiding citizens just because some horrible people did something awful with a gun.

The fact that it's one of the laws our entire modern day culture is based upon means that it's one that will radically alter our entire culture if it's messed with. Now if you'd like to try to do that go right ahead, but at least be honest enough to admit it's what you're wanting rather than acting like it won't be any kind of big deal in the long run beyond magically taking dangerous weapons out of the hands of criminals...
Wanting or not wanting was not the point, the point is that the 2nd is an Amendment and like the rest of the Constitution it can be changed with an amendment.
I'm pro banning bullets; not guns. Doesn't interfere with the 2nd so hayseeds and chairborne rangers can't yell "but muh 2nd!" and it seems like a good compromise.
Right... "probably not". You're wanting to restrict the rights of law abiding people when you know from the outset that the restriction probably won't help the real problem. And if it becomes clear that it HASN'T actually helped the real problem, are you going to be in favor of giving the people their full rights back or are you going to support restricting their rights even further?

Yeah I actually consider the right to bear arms just as if not more important as those other rights because it's essentially the right to defend not only oneself, but also the other rights granted by the constitution. It's important that we not surrender that right.
I'm going to fall back to the point of banning ar-15's doesn't prevent people from protecting themselves or interfere with the 2nd amendment.
Public safety first, then go pewpew.
At first, I wasn't for banning of a gun then I went and shot and realized how utterly ridiculous it is to defend the ar 15 and large capacity magazines.
I also didn't want to acknowledge gun ownership online and get labeled but I have rifles, revolvers, semi auto matics. I have a touch of experience.
As you said, banning the AR 15 probably won't impact public safety. When that's clear, people will want to ban the next gun of choice, then the one after that, and the one after that, etc.
Just like banning AR-15's doesn't pervent mass shootings.
