If I could only own one rifle, it would be an AR-15. They are a delight I'm not saved because I'm good. I'm saved because He's good!My website: www.bradfreeman.comMy blog: bradcfreeman.tumblr.com/

The main reason is for a soldier to LIVE, and at the same time WIN (for himself and his comrades). It can also keep a country safe and of course when used for the wrong reasons can be very destructive.Cars kill a lot of people, we do not ban then, but try to keep them out of the hands of criminals and drunks. We do not always accomplish that but we still keep trying!I do not have such a weapon, I do not feel the need of one. Neither do I carry a weapon (except my pocket knife) but if I was endanger I would appreciate a 'good shot' who did carry one nearby!The argument will continue for years to come, but this country was formed by armed men and women. I hope we citizens can always be armed. Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/

YES BUT CAN'T YOU SEE, IF WE CONFISCATE 'ALL' OF THEM you would no longer have that problem.So on the third of July we will ask everyone YOU and all the crooks that have them to turn them in. PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!!!! We won't take names, remember faces no records so EVERYONE will be protected.That procedure works well with guns and drugs I hear????????????? It might work!

Here is my proposal if I was in Congress.Ban AR-15s and other so called assault rifles - couple that with a ban on abortion after the first 8 weeks.I would make that trade in an instant.Hopefully it will occur to the President too - like he did with amnesty for so called Dreamers - in exchange for the wall.Then we will see who really wants to fix things - when they must give up something they don't want to

Post subject:  Aaron Scott: Let's be honest...the AR-15 is really about feeling "bad"

No one outside of the armed forces has a true need for an AR-15 type rifle. Now, for the paranoid, you can't make a weapon that does too much damage.Consider that a shotgun, pistol, or regular hunting rifle is MORE THAN ENOUGH to defend one's home from bad guys...unless those bad guys are SEALS or something...in which case nothing you have is going to save you.ANYONE who hears the distinctive sound of a shotgun shell being pumped into the firing chamber is going to run. If they don't, then having a shotgun is better than having an AR-15, since you don't have to be particularly skilled in aiming.I think most men have an AR-15 either because of compensation issues, paranoia, or (and I think this is the largest category) it makes them feel like a bad dude.Now, there's nothing wrong with that! But when we KNOW that an AR-15 is going to allow someone to kill a number of people in a very short time (as opposed to an intruder and his intruder friend trying to get in your house), we probably need to rethink some things.A gun is for the defense of one's property and person...and for hunting. A shotgun or hunting rifle can BOTH do extraordinary damage against a person...but the AR-15 is PRECISELY designed for EXTREME cases--e.g., a whole squad of cartel guys is trying to get in your house. The truth is that even a shotgun would make someone think twice in such a case...but the AR-15's only unique purpose is that sort of fast and mass killing. It doesn't serve a legitimate hunting or personal protection need.Yes, if we have a zombie apocalypse, maybe you'll need one. AND THAT IS THE PROBLEM: WE HAVE PEOPLE WHO THINK THAT WILL HAPPEN!!! This is probably the kind of person that most certainly should NOT have a gun.Ask yourself a question: WHERE do we draw the line? Why can't a person also mine their front yard? Why can't they have Claymore mines? Why not a Daisycutter bomb? Why not nuclear weapons? I mean, we DO have the right to defend ourselves, right??? Here's the problem, I think: For better or worse, the AR-15 type gun has been the weapon of choice in a number of these mass killings. Yes, a pistol will kill you, too...but the AR-15 is the perfect weapon for mass killing...since it can be obtained legally (and not by having to smuggle plutonium out of Europe, etc.)We speak of justifiable force. A shotgun (for self-protection) is justifiable force/firepower. It could be easily argued that the AR-15 goes beyond what is necessary to defend oneself and family. A possible thing is gun insurance. If you own an AR-15 (or any gun deemed beyond justifiable force), you MUST have insurance on any illegal damage it does. If you are caught with such a gun and do not have insurance, you perhaps risk prison. We'd do that if someone had their own nuclear weapon, wouldn't we?I'm just sick of hearing the same story: An assault type rifle was used to kill a number of innocent people. Leave those types of guns to our military. They are OUR military. They are NOT the enemy (as back in Revolutionary times when the British military turned against Americans).

Self defense is the purpose of the AR-15. The gun is also a reminder to DC that the people of the States have the power to deal with traitorous politicians

Horrible post. Aaron. One false premise after another
