California Assault Weapon Ban Declared Unconstitutional

[SgtSpiderMan]

first paragraph:

"The United States Department of Justice reports"

Second paragraph:

"Attorney General’s annual report"

And if you read the decision itself you'd see the source for the knife information was contained in footnote 23:

23, In 2021, 39 people were killed with some type of rifle—not necessarily an assault rifle
or modern rifle, while California saw 303 people murdered with a knife, according to
California Department of Justice crime statistics

So you don’t know how many people were killed with an assault rifle.

I asked you for the source.


You have me a quote.


The source says more than what the judge said

Specifically that the number.is not complete

You don't know because the number of deaths is irrelevant to you.

 

[Chobham]

So you don’t know how many people were killed with an assault rifle.

None.

 

[icanhelp1]

None.

None.

 

[ll74]

Why is this website so difficult for you?

 

[Fuzzy1975]

None.

Really, and all those kids shot by Hale in Nashville. Hmm AR-15 the military knock off...fuckoff dunce

 

[RobDownSouth]

None.

A short six hours later, this quote has not aged well as a White Guy With A Grudge and a Gun massacred at least 22 civilians at two location in Lewiston Maine.

A person the military and the government knew was a mental case who had made threats of shooting in the past but was allowed to be turned loose on society.

And armed to the teeth with weapons. I mean we have nut jobs, who doesn’t. We just draw the line at arming them with guns.

How would he have passed a background check? Did he make false statements on the 4473 form? This is from Fox News:

"Hundreds of police officers are searching for Card and it has been learned that Card is a firearms instructor with military experience.

An Army spokesperson told Fox News: "Sgt. 1st Class Robert R. Card II is a Petroleum Supply Specialist in the Army Reserve, enlisting in December 2002. He has no combat deployments."

Card also recently reported mental health issues, including hearing voices, and allegedly made threats to shoot up the National Guard base in Maine, according to the bulletin which cited law enforcement.

He was also reportedly committed to a mental health facility for two weeks over the summer."

So, how could he have acquired employment as a firearms instructor? He's spent some time in the Army, probably 8-9 years, having reached the rank of Sgt First Class. Joined in 2002 and is still in the Army Reserves. Yet he's looney tunes nuts.

To combat this problem you have to first admit that you have a problem. Like any addict you are, as a country, in denial. Check out what other civilised countries do and then have a lie down and a good hard think.

We have a problem for sure but it doesn't have anything to do with how we are organized as a nation, or our inherent freedoms. It has a lot more to do with our tolerance of evil in mankind. Even when it slaps us in the face. We understand we are unique in history as a nation, but we have decided to keep it this way despite the rest of the free world's need to kneel before the God of uniform social conformity. We are mindful as well of your condemnations of our Spartan-like attitudes until you need help.

Then your fellow citizens will keep on dying needlessly.

You need to learn the value of life. That your society not only dismisses but openly mocks those killed in these gun attacks is sick at heart and unchristian.

He was committed. They could've taken his guns then

Rightguide is the living epitome of Boomer Selfishness.
He thinks of nothing but himself.

So NOW you like government sources?

Again, as long as it has a crap connection to your narrative. The rest of the world needs more concrete connections to things.

 

[dkovic77]

What does this part mean?

What the foolsh one doesn’t remember/know, they killed babies who weren’t strong enough in Sparta.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Those were simply post-partum abortions. What's not to love???

 

[Raazor]

Are you a Christian?

Yes, in that I was raised in a Christian faith and live in a country that is predominantly Christian. Fortunately, England’s Christian heritage is based on a King‘s desire to bed another woman. Consequently, our established Church is more of a social club where belief in God is entirely optional.

It’s a great option for us non-believers.

I find that number a bit difficult to believe just based on the law of averages. According to the FBI between 2014 and 2018 every year usually is somewhere between 200 and 400. Unless 2021 is an extreme outlier this number is probably larger than that.

They key is the "other" category....which is in the thousands...and includes Assault rifles.
Ignoring that is what the judge did.

I'm sure the one that weren't reported include at least some rifles. I was simply pointing out that unless the Good Fairy came down and ended all murderous intent for a year 21 is WAY to low. Unless 21 souls were one of the endless chain of of mass shooting that I forgot cus they happen so frequently a week where two happened days apart and I thought they were the same one until they said where it was.

You would expect the 'other' category to be proportionately weighted which wouldn't skew the categories all that much.
