All assault weapons should be banned [View all] wildman76 May 2022 OP

For awhile they were, then the ban expired. Ocelot II May 2022 #1

No. They were grandfathered Kaleva May 2022 #6

Also, manufacturers renamed them and removed a few features fescuerescue May 2022 #33

Yes Kaleva May 2022 #39

We could reinstate and improve. gldstwmn May 2022 #8

I bought my first AR during the so-called ban SYFROYH May 2022 #13

Ownership was not banned hack89 May 2022 #31

The manufacturers had the audacity to start selling even more! fescuerescue May 2022 #34

It is not a crime to violate the "spirit" of the law hack89 May 2022 #35

That loophole needs to be fixed fescuerescue May 2022 #36

Given the current state of the Senate, that is highly unlikely hack89 May 2022 #38

Prosecuted for what? MarineCombatEngineer May 2022 #42

I'm sure that's a comfort to their victims. fescuerescue May 2022 #49

And I'm sure it's not. MarineCombatEngineer May 2022 #52

Hell yes I want to take your guns away! Novara May 2022 #5

I feel like anyone who doesn't express sympathy for what happened this week... Initech May 2022 #9

agreed, because not being affected by 19 children being murdered is sociopathic Novara May 2022 #10

Which is why MIpen03 May 2022 #26

Can we at least bring our police departments up to code? Initech May 2022 #7

That could be included if the ban is reinstated. Congress could appropriate funds. gldstwmn May 2022 #12

Our gun laws are so ass backwards that it's unbelievable. Initech May 2022 #14

I am not advocating banning all guns. gldstwmn May 2022 #15

Make sure that it is illegal for gun manufacturers to sell to civilians too. LiberalFighter May 2022 #11

Banning things doesn't work well Buckeyeblue May 2022 #16

That sounds nice Hav May 2022 #17

But that's my point. It's too easy to buy a gun. Buckeyeblue May 2022 #27

Ah well that argument seems clever but... Voltaire2 May 2022 #18

Not trying to be clever. Trying to be realistic. Buckeyeblue May 2022 #29

The Aussies did a pretty good job. Buybacks and outlawing assault weapons cut their homicides. nt albacore May 2022 #19

Maybe. If all we are going for is assault weapons. Buckeyeblue May 2022 #30

Republicans are the biggest roadblocks to ANY fucking thing good for this country. nt albacore May 2022 #41

Too many people fucking speed jcgoldie May 2022 #20

Well by definition that must be true, right? PTWB May 2022 #32

If guns are illegal anyone with a gun would be a criminal... Buckeyeblue May 2022 #37

Welcome to DU. Good Post. Tommymac May 2022 #43

Very well said and thank you! Rhiannon12866 May 2022 #48

assault weapon IS NOT VAGUE llashram May 2022 #50

Hunting rifles, shotguns should be the only ones available with a instant background check. roamer65 May 2022 #22

I agree. shrike3 May 2022 #28

I would rather form a well trained militia 48656c6c6f20 May 2022 #23

Seriously, a large number of the 'Well Trained' Continental Militias in the 1770s DID NOT HAVE GUNS Tommymac May 2022 #44

Call them "industrial-strength child-killing machines" lastlib May 2022 #24

Too late. Best thing they can do now is tax the shit out of anything that has to do with guns. Emile May 2022 #40

They are here in California Zeitghost May 2022 #45
