There are intelligent right wingers out there. .But they are mighty dishonest too, if they thought Trump was a safer bet than Clinton.

As an aside, an”assault weapon” is a phrase made up by the anti-gun crowd to confuse the issue of what a weapon actually is.

Pretty amazing that the federal government was able to have an assault weapon ban when cic says there isn't any assault weapons. How did they do that?

and did you see the YYUUGGEE number of decreased homicides because of it. Worked well, didn't it?

So now you are saying there is such a thing as an assault weapon. First there isn't now there is.

To OP ... seems very clear what the majority of the population is asking for:

It's pretty simple zzyyxx:

Dems want to close the loopholes by which such shooters can very easily obtain guns.

Finally a semblance of a wishlist.

Now, to the second part: what are you going to offer in return? How about national shall-issue CCW permits in exchange for #1 on the list?

So tell us, Joey, where did this guy buy his evil "assault weapon"?

Again with the emotion. You guys just can't make an argument without it, huh?

But, it looks like Mr. Kelley got his gun from a local sporting goods store.

Sniper says

Looks like that destroys your "loophole" narrative, doesn't it?

Not really. Obviously the background check didn't work. Let's fix it.

Sniper says

With what, MORE gun laws?

You do know that criminals don't give a shit about CURRENT laws right? That's why we need MORE laws? Did I get that right?

Ah, the same tired old argument. So, by that logic we should get rid of all laws then, right? Murderers and rapists obviously didn't care about the laws so let's get rid of them.

All these mass shootings are keeping me entertained.
Maybe we will have another one soon because killing is what man's really good at.

Sniper says

Hey Joey the TROLL, got an answer yet to the questions?

I already answered it. I didn't think I needed to repeat myself over and over again.

joeyjojojunior says

So, they're kind of new laws, but really more just improvements to current laws.

Sniper says

I asked for SPECIFIC laws that would have prevented him from buying, NOT your trolling narrative.

What specific NEW law would have stopped him?

I don't care what you asked for piggy. Everyone else on the thread understands...

Sniper says

Your honor, I rest my case.

OK--this is the last time I'll engage you. I answered your question. Let's close the loopholes. For example, as Bob mentioned on another thread-let's require background checks on private sales/gun shows.

Sniper says

What NEW laws is your Tribe proposing that would have prevented this guy from buying his guns. This should be a real easy answer for you, if you were really serious, and not just a TROLL.

wtf---there is no law requiring background checks at gun shows. I'm saying let's pass a NEW law requiring them. Is that too hard for you to follow?

Sniper says

Ahhh, so that would have prevent this guy from buying the guns, if they checked him out before he bought them at a local gun show. Good!

Nope--but it would prevent some people who shouldn't have guns from getting them. Or do you think it's not worth potentially saving hundreds of lives?

Anyone catch the exit polling stats for Virginia on issues that mattered to voters?

Immigration: red
Healthcare: blue
Guns: 50/50 split!

California looking to implement enforcement to take guns from convicted felons and mentally ill.

It's happening.

US is going to shift here. As fast as we did on same sex marriage? Tough to say, but it for sure has started. Time is on the side of better gun regs and enforcement.

Sniper says

I would love to save lives, I just keep asking you for sensible laws that would WORK in these cases but not infringe on lawful owners, but all you keep posting is nonsense that has no bearing on reality.

So you think that background checks don't work and infringe on lawful owners?
