School Shooting in CT

From time to time I’d get the kneeling on dry dog food while holding the foot stool over my head. Very effective and left no marks. Not a routine punishment, but once or twice.

everything you need to know about the last ban (the facts, not the opinions) A good quick read.

I thought NY still follows the assault weapons ban anyways

it does, but as the article states it’s basically a joke that everybody gets around.

If the democrats don’t want to win the next election this is sold route to go

I don’t back either party but messing guns is usually political suicide.

I think so. I’m pretty sure >10 round clips are still banned here. Well, you can’t buy or sell them but if they were manufactured before 1994 you can possess them.

Fairly close, pinned muzzle brakes, 10 rd. limit on new mfg. magazines, etc. under Article 265.

the 10 round thing only help if it’s hard to get a pre-ban mag. I’ll ask you gun guys: If wanted a pre-ban mag today how easy would it be and how much would it cost?

Depends on the gun and capacity. They aren’t usually hard to get, but you will pay a premium being pre-ban in a moronic state.

LOL. I have a NY enhanced ID, I just need some cowboy boots, an ocular implant and I’m good to go down there.

Its not too bad… Figure some new ak47 30 rounds are about $10/ea, pre-ban 30 round are about $20/ea, so double in price and also 18+ years old. You can pick them up all day online, in local stores, and shows. Its about the same for ar15, but you have all kinds of brands, composites, etc to compare.

wow, I was guessing they would be $100+ at a $20 bill they might as well be considered free and legal.

I’m turning in all my deadly assault weapons today to a gun buyback. Even though most are from the Civil War, WWI and WWII they still mount a bayonet. According to the government that is bad.

When i rule the Republic of Texas, 1984 will be mandatory reading for all children.

You can go and buy 30 round mags all day, locally.

12/16/2012 shooting:

“The gunman entered the theater, Antu says, where he fired a shot but did not hit anyone. An off-duty sheriff’s deputy working security then shot the gunman.”

No discussion needed.

So someone trained and armed stopped a bad guy from shooting up a theater? Amazeballs.

You have to be careful though. Some stores or people sell 30 rounders that aren’t legitimate pre-bans. Happens more often than you think.

That is what should happen.

Balls do amaze…

I never understood this. Someone who is a good shot and doesn’t think in terms of COD could probably kill just as many people with a 5 shot bolt action rifle. Also if the mag is “pre ban” its perfectly legal… wtf? No collapsable stocks either, if the rifle was 3 inches shorter i could put it in my wallet…unless the rifle is pre ban. No bayonet lugs either!!! but maybe that will change, Obama said we don’t use bayonets anymore.

Does any of this seem absurd?

Yes it does seem absurd. Because they are absurd.

^^^^^^^^According to the article there are/were 24 million of them in this country so…
