        The constitution says thou shall not infringe. it does not specify what type of weapon you can or can't have for a reason.

        In Mobile AL. last night. One guy with a gun - dozens of police officers and SWAT. A teacher cannot defend their students against an automatic weapon, whether they have a gun or not.

        You should then know that an AR15 is not a weapon any army uses since it’s not an assault rifle. It’s a semi-automatic rifle like any other semi-automatic rifle of the same caliber but it just looks like a military weapon. It’s used for small game hunting, sport shooting, defense

        I know this. Those who say AR15 are bought for hunting are NOT sportsmen. Wildlife is fair game during proper seasons and the skill of the hunt must be sportsmanlike. If you need an AR15 to kill wildlife then you don't have the skills to be called a hunter. Ban assault rifles.

        Yet you claim to support the #2A-so which is it Senator? Do you support the #2A and a person's right to defend himself/herself, or not? The #2A isn't about hunting, and you know it

        Full auto weapons have been banned since 1986. Semi-auto rifles are just like handguns, they fire only as fast as you can squeeze the trigger so you tell me

        You also don't know how semi-automatic weapons work in general. Good to know
