          Why an AR-15? Because it's an arm. You answered your own God forsaken question.

          u my friend are being a tad obtuse. In civilised society why would a citizen need anything other than small arms.

          You cannot strip men of this right. It is unconstitutional and it's people like you who are killing the constitution.

          assault rifles weren't around when it was written. How about everyone have all muskets they want?

          1787 - the date the constitution was written. The world has moved on, so should the arms issue.

          no because it's orchestrated from the White House. Deray McKesson met with Obama last week. His thugs did this.
