I agree with you 100% if you want to shoot a semi or fully automatic weapon Vegas is the place to go, there are indoor ranges where you can shoot a thousand round a minute, the tourists eat it up. So with that in mind how about these shooting ranges open up everywhere and your assault weapon stays there for you to play with it in a safe location indoor or outdoor, and you get a six shooter and a double barrel or a bolt action for home use and hunting. And it's high time to insure all gun owners for funerals, and all medical costs just like we all do as car & truck owners. Maybe the N.R.A. can foot the bill with their 4 million plus lifetime members at $750 dollars a pop...that's $750.00 X 4 million

No. You are the one wanting to draw a parrallel. GreenStormCloud Dec 2012 #75

I never implied that. You are the one trying to draw combat parrallels. GreenStormCloud Dec 2012 #81

Bullshit, you said more kids would be alive Fumesucker Dec 2012 #87

Palantirs didn't see into the future, or alternate realities. GreenStormCloud Dec 2012 #89

Or the kids could rush him like some paid shills for the gun industry seem to think is a good idea Fumesucker Dec 2012 #91

Or an armed guard, or school marshal, could rush in and shoot him. N/T GreenStormCloud Dec 2012 #97

Or, more likely, he'd have had another victim intaglio Dec 2012 #86

Gun control has kept gun violence down to a small fraction of what it is here per capita Whovian Dec 2012 #29

How old are you? Mojorabbit Dec 2012 #42

That can be waved mwrguy Dec 2012 #65

It wouldnt be the US Army vs average citizens davidn3600 Dec 2012 #8

Do you realize the NATIONAL guard is basically a branch of the US Military? Whovian Dec 2012 #10

So? In that type senario you would have entire divisions defecting. GreenStormCloud Dec 2012 #18

And losing their paychecks immediatly as well as support Whovian Dec 2012 #20

I'd actually propose using the Swiss military as a model to emulate. Selatius Dec 2012 #9

I believe the Israelis have a similar model davidn3600 Dec 2012 #12

Israel does have a similar model, precisely for rapid mobilization. Selatius Dec 2012 #16

Considering they only have appx 8 mil people there and one of the highest per capita incomes in the Whovian Dec 2012 #13

Around here they do. Rex Dec 2012 #43

You used the typical talking point of deer hunting and gun control ........ former-republican Dec 2012 #55

If you look again at the OP you will see I didn't propose an outright ban of guns. Whovian Dec 2012 #50

No , this is what you said former-republican Dec 2012 #58

"a ban on any semi automatic weapons for civilan use" is not a gun ban Whovian Dec 2012 #60
