    Yeah, I'm going to have to disagree with your statement. Pretty sure over 2 dozen Texans got "fucked", but hey they got him in the end....a victory for gun owners everywhere.
    Would you have preferred he got away and went to the next church?  I’m glad this asshat got to experience the pain that he had inflicted on others.
    I was seeing he died from a self-inflicted gun shot. 
    I was seeing that he was confronted by two locals, was shot and tried to escape, shit himself and crashed.  Then...the police arrived...

    Well, one state made it illegal to own a bump stock with your pretty AR killing device.

    Is there anybody on here opposed to the ban of owning AR-15 style assault rifles outside of LE and military?
    Yes.

    You can't even get the terminology correct.

    Besides I have been hearing non-stop for a year how "literally Hitler" was elected President, and now those people want "literally Hitler" to be the one in control of all firearms.

    Why do you want to give "literally Hitler" oh and the white supremacist and racist and apparently woman abusing and Russian colluder so much control?
    Ok. My apologies. I haven't fired an AR or its like in about 10 years. What is the correct terminology you would like me to use? You have lots of criticism, but no answers or suggestions. Only Mace seems to be able to provide some sort of reasonable discussion points.
    Have you ever shot one?

    If not, I will take you out to a range and introduce you to one.  I can then go over terminology and show you how it operates, including breaking it down and re-assembling it.

    Your first question needs no answer. What does it matter if he was eventually shot by another Texan? You make the statement like it was some sort of victory. Do you think this asshat expected to live free and clear? He was on a death mission, so I would guess not. Anyone who reads or hears this that gets the "Don't fuck with Texans" as the take away doesn't understand the situation or the continual theme in this never ending story.

    I've got one, after 9/11 happened we should have taken pictures and wrote stories of American troops killing Muslims because, you know, don't fuck with the US.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I don't think I have ever looked over an argument about assault weapons and not found someone arguing about how they aren't assault weapons.

    The AR-15 is an assault weapon.  Get over it.

    That’s all part of the routine in these things. Debate definitions, tell the person they don’t understand how guns work, talk about Chicago, say that criminals will always be able to get guns if they want them, reference the need to protect your family, and then fimish with the historical misstep about the first thing dictatorships do is gather all the guns.

    yeah and the tyranny thing is equally ridiculous...do you think these people realize that they are discussing taking up arms AGAINST the USA?  That's treason :)

    Yeah, did you read my answer? It's been about 9 years. I shot it several thousand times and was qualified with it before that. A crack shot with it. I could break it down and put it back together no problems. That's what I did.

    Again, do you have any other suggestions. A civilian has no need to own an AR or other types of semi-auto assault rifles. Fear is the only reason no one is willing to give up these types of guns. Don't worry, we'll all die of lack of water and tillable land before the government comes for your guns. You will probably need your gun to protect your bunker of supplies from the raving masses of starving and thirsty.

    Clearly yesterday proved that we need them, in order to stop bad people from harming others.

    Thankfully it isn't the Bill of Needs.  Thankfully I don't need someone telling me what I do or don't.

    You asked me what my terminology was, that lead me to believe your experience was not vast.  My terminology is what it actually is, not what the media says it is.

    At some point there is going to be a really sad situation where a "good guy with a gun" gets killed by police or another good guy with a gun because they think he is the bad guy.

    Not saying it hasn't happened yet but not that I recall.

    More than likely not as there really is no such thing.  

    He probably had his personal defense firearm or his sporting rifle.  I highly doubt he had a military M16.

    Freedom can be dangerous.  Thankfully freedom means we have that choice.

    Shooting people that are innocent is generally reserved for murderers and government.

    If not, I will take you out to a range and introduce you to one.  I can then go over terminology and show you how it operates, including breaking it down and re-assembling it.
    Yeah, did you read my answer? It's been about 9 years. I shot it several thousand times and was qualified with it before that. A crack shot with it. I could break it down and put it back together no problems. That's what I did.

    Again, do you have any other suggestions. A civilian has no need to own an AR or other types of semi-auto assault rifles. Fear is the only reason no one is willing to give up these types of guns. Don't worry, we'll all die of lack of water and tillable land before the government comes for your guns. You will probably need your gun to protect your bunker of supplies from the raving masses of starving and thirsty.

    Reminds me of this beautiful song;

    Clearly yesterday proved that we need them, in order to stop bad people from harming others.

    Thankfully it isn't the Bill of Needs.  Thankfully I don't need someone telling me what I do or don't.

    You asked me what my terminology was, that lead me to believe your experience was not vast.  My terminology is what it actually is, not what the media says it is.
    I didn't ask for the banning of all guns. In an ideal world, guns wouldn't exist, but they do and I am not advocating for their complete removal. I also don't need the media to tell me what to call it. I have enough experience to know what it can do. Since you can't seem to clarify what the proper terminology is in your mind, I will assume you have an issue with "assault". It doesn't sound as pretty with that term included. If I say AR-15 semi-auto rifle, it just sounds like your ordinary rifle because sem-auto is ambiguous enough to be taken as just a handy feature that varies based on each individuals usage of that feature.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Well, one state made it illegal to own a bump stock with your pretty AR killing device.

    Is there anybody on here opposed to the ban of owning AR-15 style assault rifles outside of LE and military?
    Yes.

    You can't even get the terminology correct.

    Besides I have been hearing non-stop for a year how "literally Hitler" was elected President, and now those people want "literally Hitler" to be the one in control of all firearms.

    Why do you want to give "literally Hitler" oh and the white supremacist and racist and apparently woman abusing and Russian colluder so much control?
    every gun
    every owner
    every transfer
    documented

    how's that for terminology

    Ok. My apologies. I haven't fired an AR or its like in about 10 years. What is the correct terminology you would like me to use? You have lots of criticism, but no answers or suggestions. Only Mace seems to be able to provide some sort of reasonable discussion points.
    Have you ever shot one?

    If not, I will take you out to a range and introduce you to one.  I can then go over terminology and show you how it operates, including breaking it down and re-assembling it.

    pretty sure that guy didn't have an assault weapon
    More than likely not as there really is no such thing.  

    He probably had his personal defense firearm or his sporting rifle.  I highly doubt he had a military M16.
    Just wondering, what are you considering an assault rifle? A gun used by the military?
    The government has defined assault rifles by a few select features, many of which are available on civilian versions.

    Clearly not the Merriam Webster definition:

    Definition of assault rifle

    :any of various intermediate-range, magazine-fed military rifles (such as the AK-47) that can be set for automatic or semiautomatic fire; also :a rifle that resembles a military assault rifle but is designed to allow only semiautomatic fire
    It's a hopeless situation...
