It is quite possible to get a class 3 tax stamp to purchase a fully automatic
weapon in the us and to then legally own 1.
It requires a police chief, or deputy chief. Sheriff, or deputy Sheriff
to sign off on the application $300 dollars and an fbi background check
payed for with the $300 dollars mentioned above.
of the weapons so owned legally by none police citizens not 1 has ever been used by the legal owner to commit murder.
although I believe 1 police swat team member did shoot his wife and another man
when he came home unexpectedly and there may be some instances with military
not noted here.
And while it is true that a number of new gun owners who have purchased guns to
defend against violent family members have either been shoot with their own
guns or had to shoot that violent family member this says more about the courts
failing to lock up violent people rather than gun ownership.
what happened at the elementary school was sad, but had the teachers principle
and janitor been armed less children would have been killed.
The police can not be every were if they could this would be a police state.
This is not what the founding fathers had in mind, with freedom comes
responsibly,in phoenix open carry is allowed and at christmas time the various
gun clubs run armed patrols on horseback and not surprisingly vary little theft
happens in mall parking lots. legal gun ownership is not the problem illegal
use of guns to perpetrate violence is.

Do you mean to argue that there is something uniquely violent about the US that leads to the higher incidence of firearm fatalities other than the number of firearms owned by its citizens?

I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that ...

An AK-47 is a very reasonable gun to shoot a deer. 7.62x39 packs enough punch to minimize the pain and suffering and minimize the damage to the meat. It's not my choice for deer hunting though.
I prefer a better built gun designed to shoot one bullet with more accuracy and more punch when deer hunting.
But if a gang of crips or raging liberals or out of control government community service organization claiming they have a right to take my food is rushing me, I'd prefer a gun that is less well made but designed to spray bullets at closer range.
This country started by acknowledging that some governments can get out of control. If freedom of speech is not enough to keep government within the limits of the governed, the right to own a firearm is there to help remind government that they govern with and only with the consent of the governed. Take away guns from the governed and you have... well, I won't bother elaborating because those of you I'm speaking to won't believe me even though there are countless examples throughout history.
Should anybody be allowed to own a gun? Now, you liberals listen up, read the following answer to the question I just posed: I say... NO ... ABSOLUTELY NOT ... NO WAY ... Did you read that? Or are you going to continue making bad assumptions about me because you've already judged me based on what little you've actually read?
NO, NOT EVERONE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO OWN A GUN.
With the first indication that you are not a responsible member of society in any way, shape or form, (ANY FELONY ARREST) you should be banned from owning any... ANY... ANY form of fire arm--be it a sling shot, an air rifle, revolver, black powder, semi or automatic weapon of ANY caliber.
"Assault" is a political term. We also need to ban assault knives, assault vehicles, assault screw drivers, assault snow balls and assault people.

Doctors
(A) The number of physicians in the U.S. is 700,000.
(B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year are 120,000.
(C) Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171
Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of Health and Human Services.
Guns
(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000. (Yes, that's 80 million)
(B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups, is 1,500.
(C) The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .0000188
Statistics courtesy of FBI
So, statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.

Diane Feinstein (Liberal Democrat) and Harry Reid (Liberal Democrat) have stated they've carried guns. If they can, why can't I? |

Maybe the problem in the US, and other countries, is that the head of state is political.
In the UK the allegiance of the armed forces, who are members of "the people", is to the Monarch and not the politicians. |

Just another bit for your education.
A clip should not to be confused with a Magazine.
You are just showing your lack of knowledge, again. |

Can you substantiate that statement, if not, then don't claim it proves anything.
wikipedia, LOL! anyone, even you can change information. I'm sure you did!
A Magazine can also be a BULDING. [smile] A CLIP can also mean ALOT of things! |

Be sensible you were refering to firearms, so my statement stands.
Most of your pontifications are nothing but wind. |

My old DI would take great issue with you much to your displeasure. Of course we only had M14s.

I'm afraid that what my old DI would have done to him would now be regarded as inhuman torture. But it would have been a good laugh. |

Let ye who is without sin be the first to cast a stone?
I wonder how many "good guys" become "bad guys"?
And why is "felony arrest" your apparent criterion for not being a responsible member of society? Not everyone gets caught. Not all irresponsible actions are felonies. Not all people "guilty" of an irresponsible behavior maintain that behavior throughout their lives. |

No, some clips for a firearm have 5 rounds, some 10 rounds, others even more. I know of some that will hold 100 rounds.
It's a clip. That is the lingo used in the states.
I don't care what you call it. |

No, it is not the lingo used by the educated ones in the USA.
Only used by those, just like marketing personel do for most products, who pick up the buzz words and think it makes them knowledgeable. |

Sloppy nomenclature makes for imprecise communication. By the way the USMC does not use your "lingo", who are they to know?

============================================================
yes a vary small vary violent group of citizens are not being incarcerated
but even if they were
In fact, the CDC has released final totals for 2010 and preliminary figures for 2011.
Those statistics show that in 2011, the U.S. saw 11,101 firearm homicides and 851 accidental shooting deaths.
By comparison, 33,554 Americans were accidentally poisoned to death last year; 34,677 died in motor vehicle crashes; 38,285 took their own lives; and 26,631 died as the result of injuries sustained while falling down.
something else to consider is that calafornia and texas both are larger than
most of the country's the us is being compared to and that is just 2, of 50
states as well as protectorate's

Outlaw firearms, regardless of type or clip capacity, and only outlaws will have the type and 30 rounds in their clips. |

It never helps the anti-gun nuts to push their agenda forward when they confuse automatic and semi-automatic weapons.
Which liberal said, "never let a good tragedy go to waste"?
I believe they're wasting this tragedy because they are now using terms like “high caliber magazines” and “large capacity rounds.”
Now a New York paper has published a map of names and addresses where legally owned firearms are located? What's a good criminal going to do now that he knows where the legally owned firearms are?
What a bunch of morons. All 51% of them. |

The ban on 30 round clips/Magazine{LOL}in D.C. are so ineffective that even a talking head like David Gregory who is in D.C. can get one, AND, did so on national T.V. That would make David Gregory one of them sloppy in nomenclature, imprecise in communication, bad at buzz words, and a law breaker. |
