Some cost many thousands more than $1500.

I should probably be buying several dozen S&W M&P 15-22 .22 long rifle guns right now. They cost just a few hundred dollars. I could make a killing when the government starts paying me $1500 a pop.

Would you stop with ARs? What about the AK-47? SKS variants?

Since you are banning a type of rifle because it looks bad ass (and so mass murderers are attracted to it), would you also ban red, pink, gray or green ARs? They do exist. What about wood stock AR's? They also exist. As far as I know, no mass shooter has ever selected a colored AR or a wood stocked AR for a mass shooting. Why ban those as well?

What about guns like the Ruger Mini-14 (pictured below), which shoots the same bullets at the same rate of fire?...but is never used by mass shooters? Are you ok with that gun? Or, would you ban it as well?

Evil preaches tolerance until it is dominant, then it tries to silence good.

- You require an ID to buy a gun, drive a car. Why are you discriminating against blacks? [NT] - NedoftheHill - 12:52pm 5/28/22
  - Let’s apply the Voter ID integrity laws that you seek, to firearm purchases. - conorlarkin - 1:49pm 5/28/22
    - You dodged my question. If ID laws are discriminatory, you must want an ID check too discriminate. - NedoftheHill - 2:41pm 5/28/22
      - Voter ID laws are designed to suppress turnout, and have been proven to be discriminatory. - conorlarkin - 3:26pm 5/28/22
        The guy who won't answer my question accuses me of deflecting. Nice try. - NedoftheHill - 1:42pm 5/30/22

        Not for lack of trying on the part of the GOP ;-)...but there are other very disturbing laws [LINK] - TyroneIrish - 2:46pm 5/29/22

    - Notably, urban blacks are buying AR's in large numbers at gun shows. - NedoftheHill - 1:44pm 5/28/22
- it was hidden but what you really want is to be able to go after gun manufacturers. 18 or 21..why - WestCoastIrishFan - 12:41pm 5/28/22
  - Yes, missed that -absurd bullshit. Points out Left isnt reasonable in its negotiations [NT] - BaronVonZemo - 6:39am 5/29/22
  - And why age? Why not other demographic factors that directly relate to gun violence? [NT] - NedoftheHill - 12:45pm 5/28/22
    - because then it’s discriminatory. [NT] - WestCoastIrishFan - 12:54pm 5/28/22

- Just for the record, there is already universal background checks for gun show purchases. - NedoftheHill - 12:26pm 5/28/22
  - Not for unlicensed dealers who frequent gun shows. [NT] - conorlarkin - 12:34pm 5/28/22
    - And not for "unlicensed dealers" who sell by meeting people on line or elsewhere. - NedoftheHill - 12:40pm 5/28/22

    - Problem is you need to create a system which cannot be abused. For example... - NedoftheHill - 12:35pm 5/28/22
      - Exactly the problem. The Left DOES plan to abuse the power. [NT] - BaronVonZemo - 5:02pm 5/28/22
      - Then work the problem, Debbie Downer. Crafting effective legislation takes skill and foresight. - conorlarkin - 12:40pm 5/28/22
        It would help if Dems weren't trying to abuse laws. You guys are selective on enforcement of laws. - NedoftheHill - 12:43pm 5/28/22
        Yep. They can't be trusted. Demons. [NT] - jakers - 1:13pm 5/28/22
