      Yeah, but it's amazing how easy it is to obtain them, and if you're going to break the law, you know full well somebody is going to ignore the 10 round limit.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        Let's not be pansies and nibble around the edges with "gun control" legislation. If "guns" -- even semi-auto -- are the problem, let's go all in, and start a full-on push to repeal the Second Amendment.

        Any attempt to deal with it by legislation or judicial activism amounts to thumbing noses at the Constitution and rendering it meaningless. Make the case to deal with the problem by the Constitutionally provided route: Amendments.

          That's politically impossible, any time in the next 300 years. If one were convinced that guns were the problem, hypothetically, half measures are they only recourse they would have.

            All those "half measures" are nothing but ways to render the Constitution irrelevant. That infuriates me.

              Yeah I have. My brother owned one. heavy suckers.

              My point was that someone with a couple of revolvers could probably do as much damage as most of these incidents if they wanted to. Banning semi-autos would not stop mass shootings.

                Well...it WILL stop mass shootings using conventional semi-autos...although as has been pointed out, a double action revolver is still semi-auto...I guess you could make it mandatory for all pistols to be single action. But like a pump shotgun or rifle it doesn't take much time to cock it.

                  I think that no matter what you ban, someone will still find a way to mass kill people. Run them over with a car, bow and arrows, swords, make a bomb, poison them...

                    which is why, contrary to Kings Gambit, "it's a sin problem and not a gun problem" isn't just a platitude.

                      The reason they won't directly go after the 2nd is because if they did they would inaugurate a most bloody civil war...

                        the biggest problem is that the people that would have to enforce the repeal and collect the guns, the military and the police, are composed of citizens that are the most likely to support the 2nd amendment and refuse to take the guns.

                          This simply reveals the honest goal of at least one advocate.

                            But they would love to see the 2nd removed.

                                Of course, that is one of the main things that prevents the leftists from gaining total control.
