Those look like cast iron wastewater pipes. Do you plan to blast sewage on the attackers? If those were real cannons, imagine the kickback they would produce. One shot, and the cannon would blast itself back through the house and into the back yard. But if you do use them, use grape shot.

Not if recoil ramps are built behind them.

???? Conservatives are not trying to take guns away from liberals.

It is just a power grab by government.
Legal guns in hands of people have made America super power and beacon of freedom.

Doubtful. The dagger is one thing, but to extend that to firearms is a metaphorical argument that probably won't pass muster.

The article is from 2013. He hasn't won yet, it seems.

I like my guns and I want more guns and more ammo. What cuts into the fun a bit is the juggernaut on my AR's to be CA compliant and 10 round mags.
Getting 9mm ammo is getting harder and harder as well. Being a gun lover isnt that easy these days.

It appears their next step is to prevent gun purchases by delaying background checks "indefinitely", with Feinstein then looking to ban "assault" weapons altogether. Their future plan is obvious, and now with stolen majorities, they'll fast-track it, Constitutionality and other legalities be damned.

Those citizens who do not understand the 2nd Amendment will do so in time. Unfortunately, it will be too late by then.

Wow, it was easy to prove this story indeed was "planted" all over by just doing a search on DDG for "mass shootings surge":

They have to get that one guy wearing coke bottle glasses in the basement at Langley doing all the Mockingbird press releases for the MSM a little more help.

RAPPER ICE-T GETS IT: GUNS PREVENT TYRANNY

Anti-2A folks and many Pro-2A folks don't understand the reason behind it. You have to read the supporting documents from the time when it was drafted to begin to understand. Here is something below to get you started:

The Anti-Federalists on Standing Armies

~

The power of the sword, say the minority..., is in the hands of Congress. My friends and countrymen, it is not so, for the powers of the sword are in the hands of the yeomanry of America from sixteen to sixty. The militia of these free commonwealths, entitled and accustomed to their arms, when compared with any possible army, must be tremendous and irresistible. Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man against his own bosom. Congress has no power to disarm the militia. Their swords and every terrible implement of the soldier are the birthright of Americans... The unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state government, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people”
~
As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people duly before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow-citizens, the people are confirmed by the next article in their right to keep and bear their private arms.
— Tench Coxe (1755–1824), writing as "A Pennsylvanian," in "Remarks On The First Part Of The Amendments To The Federal Constitution," in the Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789, p. 2 col. 1

Small scale toy Factories. 2nd amendment on steroids.(I think some checks and balances needed)
Not sure if the tradition started during Sikh Empire as Sikh religion wants 2nd amendment on steroids but crushed by Hindoo/British.

Logically there is no need to build it at small scale.

BIDEN / OBAMA ADMINISTRATION CALLS FOR A BAN ON ASSAULT WEAPONS AND HIGH-CAPACITY MAGAZINES

"We can save lives by increasing background checks and eliminating assault weapons".

Onvacation says

"We can save lives by increasing background checks and eliminating assault weapons".

Yes, let's go after the weapons that are rarely used. No penalties however, for those who have acquired and used handguns illegally as that would attack the source of the vast majority of gun crime, but would have a "disparate impact on crooks of color."

I always thought it was stupid to have an orange tipped gun to indicate it's a "toy". Like how hard is it for a criminal to paint the tip orange?

I'm annoyed by these stupid measures that are taken but I rarely voice them, because I don't know how dumb the rest of the population is. I'll voice ONE now, not that I would ever do what I'm about to describe, and I'm only voicing it here because I don't believe there's any terrorists on this site.

You realize how easy it would to create a what the US federal government calls a "terrorist incident"? Drive down a residential street with a bunch of molotov cocktails, setting homes on fire at 3:00 am. You'd overwhelm the fire department in less than 20 minutes, and burn down 50 blocks and kill hundreds if not thousands. This is why I don't believe much in "terrorists" - if you just want to kill people, it's tremendously easy to do, provided you don't mind dying to do it.

You could get a pilots license, rent a Cesna, and do the same thing. You're doomed once you land, most likely.

If a group of people want to kill a bunch of people, it's TREMENDOUSLY easy to do. Gun? That's just ignorant.

I'm fully confident I'm not the smartest person, and I'm entirely confident that there is some sociopathic asshole terrorist that is far more intelligent and creative than I am. The government intimidates people convincing them that "terrorists" are after them - they aren't, they are trying to gain notoriety, they aren't trying to actually kill people, that's just the non-combatant victims. "Terrorists" often seem to MINIMIZE non-combatant victims, but make it a notable atrocity to attract attention to whatever their cause is.

Any fool with about $100,000 could burn down an entire city suburb if they wanted to do it. That's the REAL world we live in.

CajunSteve says

With all the talk about the school shootings, let's take a look at what the 2nd Amendment actually says:

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Couple things to note in there:

1. The specific mention of a militia being the reason for the need to bear arms.
2. The 2nd Amendment never mentions the word gun at all.

So, what exactly is the definition of "arms"?

In 1755 Dr. Johnson’s Dictionary of the English Language was first published. It defined “arms” as “weapons of offence, or armour of defence.”

Weapons of offence would seem to include pretty much anything and everything, from knives to nuclear weapons. The US has already seen fit to ban some weapons of offence so the 2nd Amendment clearly has not been interpreted strictly as meaning that the US cannot ban all "arms". Therefore, the 2nd Amendment does not guarantee citizens ...

Let's just be frank and honest.

The purpose of the second amendment is to kill a bunch of fucking politicians when they get to be too much of a group of assholes.

Stop pussy footing around it. The "well regulated militia" is US. That's the fucking purpose of the 2nd amendment, to murder tyrants. That's it.

zzyzzx says

Here's an idea - stop bombing Syria!

Too fucking radical? To CRAZY an idea? Maybe the US can stop making refugees by blowing up their homes. I know this seems like a RADICAL idea, but I suggest our fucking murderous asshole "leaders" try it.

I know it's SUPER DANGEROUS to stop killing people in 3rd world nations, but maybe we can try this??

This is true. The purpose of the 2nd Amendment is to get it back when our government has become irredeemably corrupt, as they are now.

They have stripped us of the meaning of our vote by filling the ballot boxes with fraudulent mail-in ballots

Now they are trying to strip us of our right to speak and right to bear arms against them.

As Scott Adams correctly points out, this won't be a conventional war.
