own 2 rifles.
You do?! How do you manage to control the sudden freak urge to shoot someone when you get pissed?
You think he’s bad news?!?!?! lol
I’m surprised I haven’t been labeled the next Charles Whitman for my arsenal… roughly 30 rifles, two shotguns, 6 pistols (4 1911s), and 5 revolvers…
And bet your ass I have ammo for every single one of them…hahaha!!!

Do you, along with everyone else who read what I wrote, honestly think I was being serious?

If that was over anyone’s head…wow.

I’m against no-restriction.
I think we can all agree on that.
I don’t think we can. I certainly cannot and will not. Ever.
The Second Amendment didn’t specify why, how, or when a citizen should be allowed to use his firearms. It simply stated that every free man has the right to keep and bear arms. There was no mention of restriction.
If I want to own a full auto, why the hell shouldn’t I be able to? I have fired thousands of full auto rounds in the Marine Corps, I’d say I am certainly qualified to own one privately. But no, some dickhead politician decided to corrupt the very principles of the document his nation was founded on

By ‘restriction’ I mean simply registering your ownership and keeping it out of the hands of violent criminals. Whether you have a fully automatic rifle or pistol doesn’t matter to me.

But even then, registering implies some form of control by the government. Weapons should not be sold to criminals,so have a criminal background screening process, but nothing beyond that. No one has the right to know what I own except for me, unless of course they want to pay for it.
The Second Amendment says absolutely nothing about restriction and it should remain that way for free citizens.

You’ve obviously never had any Marine Corps training. A properly trained individual with a knife, could sneak through your entire house, kill everyone in it without making a sound, and then exit the structure with no one ever knowing he was there besides multiple corpses.
The instrument itself does not represent lethality-- it is the individual with said instrument.

Excellent point, World. Glad you mentioned it. I didn’t want to be the only one thinking it.

Were you referring to the excellent training we have received in the Corps that, combined with our rifles, make us the deadliest weapons in the world?
Or the second part of what I said?
Ooh Rah!!!
