TopicWhy do people think an assault rifle ban would ban AR-15s?

There are dozens if not a hundred or more rifles that you can purchase that are functionally equivalent to an AR-15. The reason why I will continue to oppose an "assault weapons" ban or an AR-15 ban is because it allows people ban weapons based on nothing.

If someone tried to craft a piece of legislation to ban the AR-15 and they actually based their legislation on its ballistic capabilities, this would ban a lot of different weapons and would be extremely unpopular. I think some people on the left actually understand this. So instead they plan to slowly chisel away at gun rights by going after the AR-15 or specific models. Once they're successful with that, maybe a mass shooter in the future will use a mini 14 which would be functionally equivalent to an AR-15 for the purposes of a mass shooting. So then they'll attack that next, and this time they'll have the precedent of the AR-15 ban on their side.
Now you know why we can never be on the same page.

We KNOW EXACTLY what you are trying to do. We've know for QUITE A WHILE.

So instead of legislating against PEOPLE who screw up like the FBI, the teachers, the criminals.

You want to ENACT COLLECTIVE Punishment on law abiding 2nd Amendment Supporters / Gun Owners.

The moment you can come up with a legislation that IS NOT A form of COLLECTIVE Punishment for us, we can talk.

Until, then; you'll get 100% resistance to ANY of your ideas.

Oh look; Other towns and areas can PAY ATTENTION to their troubled teens and report them to the local authorities and PROSECUTE their Sociopathic Sorry Arses.

The multi-level Personnel Failure of Florida IS NOT THE FAULT of Law Abiding Gun Owners.

Get that through your head.

Do not try to enact COLLECTIVE PUNISHMENT on us; OR ELSE face MUCH MORE RESISTANCE from us from now to ETERNITY!!!

WE WANT ALL OF OUR RIGHTS BACK for ALL LAW ABIDING 2A owners.

PERIOD.

We're tired of being your Gun Hating Whipping Post.
