Why does anyone NEED an assault rifle?

[WrongVerb]

I'm late to this thread, so I'm wondering if anyone noticed the OP didn't actually answer the question he posed. "I want to" is a juvenile justification, not sophisticated, insightful reasoning.

 

[My I]

I figured you'd say something like that and it complete proves my point that you're fucking clueless. Now sit back and get your butt donuts out because you're asshole is going to be gaping in a minute.

The first amendment says exactly the same thing as the second, specifically the "abridging the freedom of speech" part. But there are laws limiting free speech. You can't incite people to violence or suicide, there were (and still are) obscenity laws, lying about certain things, and speech related to intellectual property.

Fucking ruined, badly.

But since you're such a racist piece of shit let me drive an entire truck of butthurt up your ass and say that "there seems to us no doubt, on the basis of both text and history, that the Second Amendment conferred an individual right to keep and bear arms. Of course the right was not unlimited, just as the First Amendment ’s right of free speech was not." You know who wrote that? Your hero Antonin Scalia.

I think it's safe to say I've completely ruined you and can expect you to rage quit now. Thanks for playing, fuckface.

And yet Liberals abuse every one of the things you listed. Riots on election night, CNNs constant stream of ignorant speculation at best. "Peacefully assemble does NOT mean you have the right to be destructive as that is an act of violence and not peaceful. So not only does the 1st amendment NOT give you the right to burn the flag in protest but there are specifics in the U.S. Code. U.S. Code › Title 18 › Part I › Chapter 33 › § 700. says:

18 U.S. Code § 700 - Desecration of the flag of the United States; penalties
US Code
(a)
(1) Whoever knowingly mutilates, defaces, physically defiles, burns, maintains on the floor or ground, or tramples upon any flag of the United States shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for not more than one year, or both.
(2) This subsection does not prohibit any conduct consisting of the disposal of a flag when it has become worn or soiled.
(b) As used in this section, the term “flag of the United States” means any flag of the United States, or any part thereof, made of any substance, of any size, in a form that is commonly displayed.

Yet Liberals are CONSTANTLY burning our flag.

The first amendment does not give you the right to take hostages, yet Liberals have been all over that lately too. Cluepon: Blocking roads and preventing people from traveling to their destination is holding them against their will. Kidnapping. Hostage taking. That is not a "Peaceful assembly", it's terrorism.

Maybe we SHOULD repeal the first amendment. No one seems to know how to use it. Especially pre-pubescent boys who think they "destroyed someone because they used some multi-syllable words to sound smarter than they really are. Lego Frodo is calling your name again.

Oh, and lest I forget....

Butthurt? Seriously? That was childish 5 years ago and now you're the only one still saying it. How sad for you.

And "I don't want you to" is just as juvenile a justification for trying to take them away. The 2nd amendment is the justification. The point I was making with the original post is that what you choose as a firearm, for whatever reason is a personal choice and that freedom of choice is one of the very basic concepts the Constitution is based on.

You have no more right to tell me what I am allowed to shoot as I have to tell you what you are allowed to drive, wear, eat, listen to, etc.

But that's not my reasoning. My response is visceral, emotional: I don't want to die just so you can play with your toys. I don't want you promising to bring my killer to "justice" if I'm shot dead. I want the ability for human beings, all of whom, like me, are prone to irrational acts based on emotion to live. There is no such thing as a 100% responsible gun owner.

Me "playing with my toys" Is not going to kill you. The visceral emotional response is a textbook example of irrational behavior. I don't want you killing me with your car, but I'm not trying to ban Camaros.

Justice, in this country, means innocent until proven guilty. NOT the other way around. But you want to forego that part of the constitution as well? Tell me what part of the Law of this land do you adhere to? Just the one's you like? Sorry, but ignorance is no defense in the eyes of the law.

And, as has been stated before, there are over 8.5 million responsible gun owners in this country who have NEVER committed a crime. ANY crime. I doubt there is even 1/10th that who are responsible drivers.

The guy who thought the 19th amendment banned alcohol is calling others clueless...LOL

Just like the 19th one banned alcohol. The 21st repealed the 19th. It is within the realm of possibility to repeal the 2nd one.

Not even close ...you need to learn how to read.



Or don't, we know you don't care about facts....just go ahead and keep running around with your goal posts comparing apples and oranges, proclaiming your fondness for my ass....it's fun seeing you so triggered

The average US citizen commits 3 felonies a day.

I doubt there is are many businesses out there that could withstand an investigation, if they want to find shit on your shoes they can. Doesn't matter who you are.

His problem is he used the system to fuck a bunch of people out of their money and he's not part of the attaboy club (R/D) nor did he seek permission from or pay his protection money to the attaboy club.

Who to believe? I can't decide.

Can't quite figure out how to respond to these schizo rants. The only way seems to be, "Yes, that's right, you ARE Jesus. And yes, liberals are engaged in kidnapping on a daily basis. And yes, CNN is all fake."

Trump is making a nation of batshit schizophrenics. You come here and post this crap like it's perfectly normal, totally unaware how batshit it all is.

I don't see why you don't go hang out with your "kind" over on Breitbart.

Congratulations! Your response was neither rational, reasonable, nor relevant. Just another childish tantrum because that's all you can do when faced with cold hard facts in the face of your warm, fuzzy, "I know you are, but what am I?"

 

[Carnal_Flower]

Do you worship Donald Trump?

[Captainnumnuts]

I think I get what My I is saying here:http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=88827955&postcount=1

Needs vs wants.

The OP or anyone else can feel free to correct me. I NEED to work and pay bills. I NEED to live. I NEED to eat. I NEED to communicate. I like sticking to the basics and anything else I see as a desire or necessity may become a NEED.

Like I feel I need a cell phone strictly for conversation or an emergency. Though I like to use various functions, I don't feel I NEED functions outside of the bare, basic minimum of text or speech. Everything else is a choice.

I don't need politics nor do I like politics, but sometimes it becomes a need in order to protect one's self or to relay a particular matter when all else seems to fail.

Do I need an assault rifle? Absolutely not. Though it'd be nice to have one if I'm surrounded by zombies or people (not person) trying to kill me if my life is in imminent danger.

 

[dan_c00000]

So not only does the 1st amendment NOT give you the right to burn the flag in protest

So you agree with me that there's limits on free speech? Thanks.

I didn't say anything about moving the flag, but ok sure all us liberals burn the flag, constantly. In fact, I'm burning one right now while using it as a napkin.

 

[Captainnumnuts]

It's all Trump's fault! And those schizophrenics!

I need to seriously assault some asshole neighbors and only a rifle will do, they ignore the shit bombs and air horns. What's my best choice for shooting the fuck out of them?

Aim carefully.

 

[WandaGrabowski]

That's like being told to grow up by Trump

What, you ran out of Old Glory toilet tissue? The DNC didn't replenish your supply? I'll send them an angry tweet.

RPG launchers or long shotguns may be more appropriate. The M203 was my favorite.

It actually does give you the right to burn the flag. A true patriot is somebody who criticizes their country (by, for example, burning its flag) in order to improve it, not a blind sycophantic cultist who treats representations of their country like religious idols.

You Americans don't know how well you have it with your freedom of speech. Why don't you take it away and see firsthand how the government of an un-free society hires insane political activists to literally police twitter for wrongthink like they do here. It's nowhere near as bad as somewhere like Turkey where they actually have official state narratives you have to toe, but it's still a bit unnerving to know wannabe dictators are actually handed power by the gov here.

I couldn't bear to use my nice hammer and sickle ones. So I just used the two Supreme Court cases that said it was ok to burn a flag instead.

I know Team Tromp inherited Dubya's gang's supply of US Constitution toilet paper. I didn't think they'd worked down to court cases. How about some Brown v Board TP? Or Bush v Gore TP? Your choice.

Maryland HS shooting

1. Maryland has STRICT gun control.

2. NO "Assault Weapons" used.

3. One dead. (The Shooter), Two injured.

4. Good guy with a gun in the school stopped the shooter.

Two of the most grossly distorted and misinterpreted documents in history are the US 2nd Amendment and the Bible.

Is Deputy Gaskill a teacher? It doesn't sound like it.

Does Maryland have enough regs now? Not according to the governor.

Ever seen 50 unsuspecting civilians killed in minutes by any of the items listed above?

No..but i have seen them killed by another human being . Why do we need police , or laws or armies ? Is it because of human nature ? Will taking guns away from people stop people from killing, hurting or stealing from one another ? I think not . Civilized society is a delicate balance of rights and wrongs ,checks and balances . While imposing new restrictions on how we live may in fact be necessary as our society changes , being aware of some of the dangerous precedents they set should not be ignored . The right to bear arms was given by the authors of the constitution for the security of the public at large . Allowing our elected officials to disarm us would in fact give them absolute power over us . Our government is not peopled by saints . They are subject to the same human foibles as the rest of the race (the human one), the founders of our country realized this. While it isn't pleasant or politically correct , to state that it is necessary for the population to have weapons, even weaponry equal to that of the military , it is needed to insure that a totalitarian regime won't take root. In Canada and even Mexico mass killings by crazy people are not common place . What is wrong with us? Maybe what we need is to start caring about people and showing concern for people with different issues , truly caring for people with mental illness is a start . All the people involved in the school shootings across the country have been suffering from severe mental illness for a long time and have fallen through the cracks . While it may be necessary to have a psychiatric data base to red flag potential shooters and people who should not be allowed to have guns along with a cooling off period (one month or so between purchase and receipt), and an age restriction (maturity has to be taken into account ) ,bannning any type of fire arm will only result in disturbed offenders from coming up with other means to kill large groups of people. We will wind up banning automobiles , fertilizer (remember Mc Veigh) , charcoal , sulphur, and even the internet to take away opportunities for disturbed individuals to find ways to wreak havoc. Does anyone really need an assault rife ? Of course not , not to eat or get to work or conduct everyday affairs , but sane responsible law abiding citizens should be allowed to have them if they so choose for the reasons already stated.
