My hair in the morning... Lol, my kids breath before they've brushed their teeth! Run for the hills!!

Knitting needles? Hat pins? Batteries? Shocking!

I think you might have missed one of the stats. What about deaths or injuries by rifles with over a 10 round magazine? Is there a statistic on that? Perhaps a ban on magazines over 10 rounds might reduce the number of suicides by rifle? Perhaps not.

Or perhaps stats on lives taken by 20 or 50 round magazines (not including combat in a war zone). Would they feel safer with 5 round magazines. Could we save lives in war by going back to single shot weapons? Will the bomb (a big one) ever be a single shot weapon? And what about lives saved by civilians with guns? Or robberies, rapes, muggings, injuries prevented by civilians with guns? How many mothers and/or fathers died because someone didn’t have a gun? I always think about Dr. Suzanna Hupp’s testimony before Congress. She tried to adhere to a stupid law and look what it cost her.

In the article it said, “If a ban …(blah, blah, blah)….. reduces the perceived risk …..…..and makes the public feel safer as a result, that’s a substantial benefit.” WHAT? WHAT? Are you kidding me? A benefit to who, not to me? It’s only a substantial benefit to a few that drank your Kool-Aid.. Who are “they” to tell me how I‘d feel about their stupid laws? Perhaps “they” would really feel safe, if their body guards only carried single shot devices.

How about a ban on heart disease or cancer? Fortunately I have not had to use a gun to prevent anything yet, if you don't count my "tour" in Vietnam. In fact, as I might derive from the article, perhaps I wouldn’t have had to go to Vietnam if we didn’t have guns with magazines. Our leaders might have been able to arm wrestle for a solution to the problem instead.

How safe do you feel when you drive? If there were smaller and much slower cars would you not feel much safer? Perhaps we should start with big cars and let the gun thing work itself out. Of course my Corvette will be grandfathered, won’t it? It’s really not very big, but it’s fast, at least that what they tell me. And maybe they could ban soda over 16 ounces to make us all feel safer. If they ban magazines over 10 rounds, 5 rounds will be next, and soon you’ll be doing target practice with a single round magazine. Think about that.

Thank You Much for the research!!! -- j

Injury/death by government edicted drug war has created more injuries/casualties than any other illegal cause, not to mention the innocent bystanders as collateral damage.

It is so simple to point out the problems with an "Assault Weapon" ban. The mushy definition politicians come up with devolved down to "scary looking' weapons.

Tell me other than appearance what is the major difference between an AR-15 or knockoff with a 20 round mag and a mini-14 with a 20 round mag.

Both are gas operated
Both have 20 round mags
Both are chambered to fire both 5.56 nato and .223 Remington

"where can we find more of his measure??"
Only in the real Gulch.

there you go, using the big words again :)

What about the paper and scissors? 😜

And where is the compassion and fairness for those of us who haven taken responsibility for ourselves and worked hard all our lives?

Then the People need to dispense with the Party. The tree of liberty needs to be fed on occasion.

That might have been buried in Obamacare....

I am finally glad to see one person at least on this site that has read his book. I have a copy that i bought when it was first published and have re read it recently. He is as intuitive as Ayn Rand was.
