If the US went to war only with AR-15's we would lose to the Nation of Tonga.

This is Exactly Why Innocent Church going Citizens and little Six Year old School Children and their Brave Teachers are Being SLAUGHTERED on a Regular Basis!! Not to Forget Concert goers or any other American Citizens doing Normal Daily living!Stop the NRA AND BAN THESE WEAPONS !
-
Worth noting that an NRA instructor effectively "stopped" the Texas shooting.
-
Once, in all the recent massacres! And, I’m sure the NRA instructor was extremely good with weapons.Why do you feel threatened by this bill?
-
Because I simply do not trust the Government. They have given me no reason to think they have my best interests at heart.

Well regulated means in proper working order.
-
The SUBJECT is the clause, and well regulated modifies the word MILITIA. Oh, and in 1789, the word "arms" was a term of art - it didn't mean muskets - it meant CANNON. Just FYI (also in every other Bill of Rights reference, individual rights are for persons not "people")
-
The purpose of the 2nd Amendment is to protect us from a tyrannical govt. That’s not happening with cannons. I’ll keep my”assault weapons”.
-
No, the PURPOSE of the 2nd Amendment is to allow individuals, formed into militias and 'well-regulated' by the states, to possess weapons on war - aka CANNON- am both a lawyer and political scientist who has studied and practiced Constitutional law - not 'learned' from the NRA

Gun control was 2nd most important thing to voters in VA after health care according to exit polls-time for Dems not to be afraid of NRA and make gun control a priority

Exactly!
@NRA days of dominance are coming to an end!#BanAssaultWeapons -
An assault weapon is a made up political term to describe a standard semi automatic weapon that looks like a military rifle.
-
Semantics isn't what this is about, it's about mass death by white terrorists!
-
Oh boy. Do you really think banning the most effective self defense platform is going to cause fewer deaths? Rifles of all kinds including the scary ones kill about 300 people a year. Do you think this will in anyway stop criminals who will always be able to get guns?
-
Yes I think it is a step in the right direction, with many more strict gun laws to follow! We have to start somewhere, the mass killings have to be addressed. Easy access to weapons must be stopped!
-
But, it's really not, bans are window dressing. Made to look like you're doing something and infringing on a right. What we have is a people problem that looks like a gun problem. I have a 5 point plan that would do more than any ban but doesn't infringe on rights.
-
The second amendment calls for a well regulated militia, let's get the regulation going. Pass a test, pass a background check, register all the guns you own on a national data base. Close all the loopholes! The but what about...isn't a solution, it's an excuse!
