(29,047 posts)I did not argue against the points in your OP because they were fallacious. The reply to my post actually contains an argument, when combined with the OP. I am not going to defend or attack "gun grabbing" because that is what is being proposed, however, magazine limits are being proposed.
I will not defend or attack Schumer or Feinstein because I don't care about them. Even if they are the biggest hypocrites to have ever lived, that would not mean their proposed policies or arguments are bad. I do care about their proposed policies and arguments, and I will address the argument to restrict magazine size to 10 rounds.
The argument I have seen to restrict magazine size is a mass shooter would have to reload more often, and therefore give people the precious few seconds they need to either run or rush the shooter. Some people can reload a firearm extremely quickly, but this very rare, and its own sport with exceptional players. Most people will need several seconds to reload, and the limit could easily save lives, especially after several years when larger magazines become very difficult to acquire.
