Was there an official report of what weapons was used in Newtown? I've read conflicting stories about Lanza keeping the .223 in his car

the gun he left in his car was an Izhmash Saiga-12 combat shotgun , it was seen from a news chopper and mistaken for an assault rifle because it looks like one.

What weapon was used to shoot Giffords?

Kelly testified about assault weapons. If you're going on the hill to discuss a serious topic and then buy the same weapon you believe should be banned common sense is that youre just opening yourself up to being questioned
SHE WAS NEVER SHOT IN YOUR SCENERIO!!! :wallbash: I give up.

I can see it being hypocritical to say something should be banned and then buying one, yourself. Certainly. Then again, you can reason that while they are still legal, buying one would put yourself on more even footing with what your perception of the bad guys, until they might get banned. Personally, I'll give him a pass, due to his wife getting shot.

Why would he buy an AR 15 then? If he's against civilians owning them he shouldn't have bought one. I'm not buying his excuse of that he was going to give it to the police

Even if he bought one and Giffords was never shot. Why open himself to scrutiny. If I was someone who thought AR's shouldn't be owned by civilians , I would never consider even looking at one.

My understanding was that he wanted to show the ease with which he could get one.

Although Blackmore kept his cool. When police arrived, they forced the suspect to the ground and asked for Blackmore's concealed carry permit.

“I put my hands up turned around and said ‘you can grab it out of my wallet.’ Checked my permit, gave me my wallet back, and then interviewed me for their paperwork,” Blackmore told WITI.

As I've said before, I agree with this. I'm afraid that it would have very little effect though. Most gun violence is gang bangers and street thugs with illegal guns. The asshole in Newtown used weapons that were banned in Conn already.
I'm all for the things you said, that I highlighted, but it's hard to ignore the probability that the lawless will find a way thru it, so it might not help, other than making us feel like we tried.

Just going out on a limb and guessing that it's cherry picked data because Chicago has more strict gun laws than the applicable federal laws

also, Chicago's murder rate is far lower than other cities but don't let non-cherry picked data get in the way

There are no "good guys" with guns, there are only paranoid people who think mop sinks are Muslim feet washing stations. They live in a fantasy world sold to them part and parcel by gun manufacturers via their friends at the NRA. The only thing methodical than their gun sales are their sales of fear. But, whatever, they're the stupid fucks that will end up committing suicide with their guns. Just hopefully they ain't aiming in my direction before they part their hair.

No. We get a TRAC study from forbes. I don't get this same lame view from the right there were stop gaps that worked. However more could have been done therefore lets do nothing.

And what kind of prosecution is handed out for failing a background check?

There's no mention of healthcare in the constitution. That's a state matter. Technically the law should be shitcanned because since its a tax. It was not originated in the house of reps. But fuck procedures right? Oh yes thats right It didn't go far enough. Single payer or at least a PO was what some on this board wanted. Notice anyone with a last name of Obama wont have to suffer under Obamacare?

Furthermore the bill of rights does not apply to the states. No thanks to SCOTUS they believed in incorporation.

Howitzers make ideal home defense weapons. As I have now heard the argument that limiting magazines to 10 rounds or less can make it more difficult to defend yourself against multiple invaders, I think Americans should be allowed at least crew served artillery. I mean, what if Putin invades your house? You have 100,000 Russians on your doorstep and only an AR-15 with 10 rounds to defend yourself.

Personally I'd lean toward the G6:

With the ability to strike targets with multiple rounds simultaneously at a range of around 20 miles, this will allow most Americans to defend their places of business as well. Plus, it has an overall range of 40 miles; Great for defending grandma's house too!!

When the gun running started as Wide Receiver there were RFID chips to track them.

I'm sure the gun shows follow the same protocol. They are basically a whole bunch of stores in 1 location.

What do you want the families to do?

The NRA isn't staying home.

The NRA is on tv, is in the offices of these politicians, is running campaigns of false information to scare every gun owner into thinking Obama is coming for their guns. People actually fucking think that... That Obama will come to their door and take their fucking guns away. What would you have these families do? Stay home and have faith that these sniveling soulless politicians do their jobs?

These families have had their lives destroyed but they're just supposed to be quiet and stay home because it isn't fair of them to actually do what we're supposed to be able to do as Americans and petition their representatives for change? To do this in the public eye? Why? Because it shows just what soulless fucking garbage the NRA and the people that associate themselves it are? Clinging to a 200 year old amendment to our constitution that, in it's loosest interpretation, lets every citizen have the right to a gun back when guns were six feet long and took two minutes to load a single shot. Crying fucking Nazism and tyranny because of fucking background checks? Background checks that at the very worst would only punish criminals and wouldn't mean one bit of difference to law abiding citizens in owning a weapon... That's a threat to your freedoms?

Maybe these families thought they could perhaps try and bring something to Washington and into the public eye that is sorely lacking... Perspective. Perspective that maybe just maybe making it a little harder for people who shouldn't be able to get guns to actually get them would be a good thing. This was more than a compromise... This bill that got voted down was a compromise of a compromise and even that couldn't make it through the NRA's/GOP's/redneck fucking force field of bullshit. Nothing in this bill would even have prevented the Sandy Hook tragedy but it would have helped others. It was a start. Change has to start somewhere but oh fucking no not from our cold dead fucking hands.

But no... That's not the tragedy here. The tragedy is that fucking Obama put those families on display like props right? That politicians actually had to look these people in the face and spit in them. How dare those fucking assholes come to Washington and make a big deal out of their children being violently murdered in their classrooms. Fuck them for thinking they lived in a country where they should be able to drop their children off at school and not expect them to be shot to death before they pick them up at the end of the day or that their elected officials actually represented their best interests. What fucking country do they think they live in?

2nd amendment is a relic from when the anti-federalists didn't want a standing army, because standing armies had traditionally been the tool of monarchies to keep conservatives in power. After the failure of militias to defend the borders of America along with the XYZ affair (and, realistically, the War of 1812) everyone realized a bunch of ill-equipped, under-trained, undisciplined partisans weren't an effective means of defending a nation. Then compare that against the success of the Legion of the US and you see why everyone was like "Welp, militias are stupid"

on top of that, think about what happened when citizens did rise up against states -- the Whiskey and Shays' rebellion. With SHays, they were put down by private paramilitaries and with the Whiskey, they were put down by other militias. Either way, the end result was the expansion of the power of the federal government.

With Shays, that was when ol' hypocrite Jefferson had his tree of life quote -- which he promptly reversed after he saw what happened with the French Revolution (along with other reversals on a national bank, other constitutional matters and having noted (war) criminal Aaron Burr at his side)

With Shays, that was when ol' hypocrite Jefferson had his tree of life quote -- which he promptly reversed after he saw what happened with the French Revolution (along with other reversals on a national bank, other constitutional matters and having noted (war) criminal Aaron Burr at his side)

obviously an opinion that many share with you. But thus far the Supreme Court has always ruled that the second amendment exists outside of the need for a militia, and if you read the writings of other founding fathers you'll see that they held the opinion that the ability to protect one's self was a birthright.
I think the mistake the President made, even after the compromise was made was continuing to use those poor parents, when there was nothing in any part of this bill that would have helped in their circumstance. That bit of harsh truth traveled the nation via Facebook and Twitter continuously since he introduced this bill, and IMO he lost some support because of it. It just made it seem as if he had an agenda and was riding this tragedy to achieve it. (I had no problem with the final version of the bill)

the final version of this bill was too weak and had soooo many bs adds for those in fear of the NRA and their respective upcoming votes


and sorry, this wasn't even an active line of policy UNTIL the last two terrible tragedies...so I don't see this as exploitation if you actually pay attention, it's their right and hope for SOME reform and change despite its impact on their plight long past helping at this point. so who cares its exact impact on THIS case in the past versus helping lead us in the right direction and possibly helping in some way in the future. I guess NRA leads also changed their tunes bc they had no issue with background checks in the past. More bullshit slippery slope jargon all over the place, despite the no registry clause in the very bill itself and more, very stupid comments/provisions. This issue is being argued so far right it's quite pathetic on everyone in the end.

whether it was an "active line" at the time, I believe it was something Obama was planning for the next 4 years, this just seemed to be a good time for it based on public outcry at the time, that's just my opinion, I don't claim to have any proof. And I don't deny these poor parents their right to try and effect policy after all they've been thru, but I do see a little exploitation on Obama's part, both sides do it when opportunity arises.
There's also the justice departments findings, as they relate to the original bill, they were pretty clear that this bill would have little to no effect because it didn't address the real problem, people with illegal guns, and stolen guns. I think that hurt the bill.

If the bill would have passed all we would hear is that it didn't go far enough, it's too watered down just like with Obamacare, many raised a shitstorm because it wasn't single payer

Both are lesser versions bc the debates are dominated by special interest and far right ideology. It would be too light if passed, as was hc reform as a single payer option would be great.

Yet u have to start somewhere and head in the right direction, not into a wall or worse.

fair enough, let's just say we disagree on where to start, and who's rights to infringe on. And I do agree that the NRA heavily influenced this whole thing, but the victims of gun crimes who went door to door in the senate were trying to do the same thing. Both were exercising their rights as they stand today, and again, both sides bow to special interest groups and powerful lobbies. That needs fixed too.

Writings are one things, doings are another. Look at all that Thomas Jefferson wrote versus what he did as president.

Besides, if the Founding Fathers had things right then the Constitution wouldn't be so incredibly flawed.

According to the other side nothing works, so why try

I disagree, the other side has made suggestions about cutting down on gun crimes, they just don't involve having they're rights trampled on.
Maybe we should do away with the laws against illegal search and seizure, start frisking people in high crime areas? I'll bet you would get lot's of illegal guns off the street. And that would do way more good than putting more restrictions on people who already follow the rules, and are not the problem.

Already happening in NYC.

So you have no problem with giving up your right to illegal search and seizure?
