He’s correct, he does not have enough members of his own party to pass an Assault Weapons Ban as they secretly support The 2nd Amendment but openly oppose it,

what common sense? banning something that 99% of the people who own one, do so without killing anyone.

Incredibly stupid cartoon based on pure ignorance and emotion.

The 2nd amendment is like the bible, most people pick the parts they like and ignore the rest.

My question is WHY someone wants to own one. It’s such an obvious phallic symbol that it makes the guys who crave them seem impotent and weak, like it’s some kind of mechanical replacement for their own withering manhood. If you really need that much firepower to defend yourself you’re either a real sissy-boy or planning to piss off everyone you ever meet.

“My question is WHY someone wants to own one.”
Why does someone own an SUV?
Why does someone own a large TV?
Why do people PAY for TV?
.
Why is it any of your business? Most importantly why would they care what your opinion of them is?

The answer to your 1st 3 questions is “It matters little to me, for they do me little harm.”:
Why assault weapons are my business is the possibility of harm to myself or a loved one as a result of their being in the hands of idiots with manhood issues.
And I don’t care if they are concerned about my opinion of them, it matters little to me, just as your opinion of me matters little to me.
But I still say if you need that much gun you don’t have much backbone.

Mr. McSpook;
Do you mean your family might be in danger from an idiot with manhood issues that has in his hand a fighting knife, Mexican Bolo, or a Civil War sword?
A gun is a weapon which does not do anything by itself, only the person who wields it. I agree that we should make every effort to lock up those who would use any of the above weapons. However, that won’t happen and so I much prefer to have in hand a weapon that will stop a thief, or murderer at a distance farther than an arms length.
Within the last few months there have been three breakins in my area and in all three men beat up the man after he was tied up, and raped his wife. The cops finally caught all of them but the men are severely injured and the women are still in a state of shock. In my house it takes the police 20 minutes to get here, which leaves the problem should it arise solely to me.
I believe that I will keep my guns, place them around the house where they are easy to reach so that when that knock in the night, that I hope never comes, my wife will not have to go through such.
