as long as you don't want what's in the can.

and so traumatize the hunter using it that they go Vegan and start taking yoga lessons.

Sorry I couldn't resist.

Make tofu irresistible to them!

For repressed homosexuality.

And quite frankly offensive. We have enough problems with gun violence without people linking it to sexual orientation.

can we link Assault Rifles to small penis syndrome?

Happiness is a warm gun
Bang bang, shoot shoot

Other then target shooting, hunting, and defense, can't come up with anything good.

And yes, I own a AR-15, Among many other weapons. Iam NOT a hunter but a avid target shooter, Wouldn't kill a bird or any animal. Truth be told I detest hunters, Most are way to happy to blast about anything that moves around here. I live in a very remote area in upstate NY, Deer season is like a fucking national holiday around here.

And also cops, ARs, etc.

Curious if urs is registered!?

and needed to be registered with the NYSP.

Only a very small (4%?) were. I sold my "AW"s instead.

Or go into the hands of a mass shooter. I really hope you do the right thing and find a gun buyback program (which police usually have regularly) and turn it in

No, they don't show that.

And since we think for ourselves, we don't worry too much about what you sky screamers tell us to do.

Since their are millions of semi-auto assault weapons out there and all types of rifles only kill around 350+- a year, how many of those were with the victims own rifle? I am guessing only a few if any, so the "chances are" your own rifle will either sit in the gun safe or go hunting or target shooting.

I respect your right to own hunting weapons and to shoot at a range.


But the gun industry is using you. Right now profits from ammo and guns you buy are being used to market more guns, to help the NRA and gun CEOs make more money. And they don’t care if those gun sales contribute to kid deaths.

NRA used to be a sportsman org, who promoted gun safety (I benefited from NRA gun safety programs decades ago). But today the NRA is a gun marketing org that seeks only to make money, kid deaths be damned.


You and I and responsible gun owners need to be out actively campaigning to get war weapons off the streets, especially if we are purchasing guns or ammo. Because profits from guns and ammo helps get American kids killed - the nra uses that money to remove any reasonable rules on guns.

Just to show off how macho they are.. What really scared me was one time up in Dutchess county I was at a rural gas station and the owner asked a hunter if he got anything..
Just a few "rustle" shots.. What is that pray tell?? Something moves in the brush.. Anything in the brush and you shoot.. Could be a deer, or another hunter or a cow... Scary..

My old stomping grounds were across the mid-Hudson bridge, I went to Marlboro High school and graduated New Paltz university.

My first job out of X-ray school. I lived in Clintondale and would commute across the river. New Paltz was a blast in the late '60s.
The deer thing was when I lived in Millbrook (Tim Leary territory) the "hinterlands..
Small world..

the NRA, a lot of congresspeople and funeral homes. That's pretty much it.

But maybe used as a pry bar to get your stuck car is a good use?

"After acquiring the AR-15, Colt promptly redesigned the rifle to facilitate mass production. Based on the final ArmaLite design, most notably, the charging handle was re-located from under the carrying handle, like the earlier AR-10 to the rear of the receiver, like the later M16 rifle.[6] Colt then renamed and rebranded the rifle "Colt ArmaLite AR-15 Model 01" After a far East tour, Colt made its first sale of Colt ArmaLite AR-15 rifles to Malaya on September 30, 1959. Colt manufactured their first batch of 300 Colt ArmaLite AR-15 rifles in December 1959.[37] Colt would go on to market the Colt ArmaLite AR-15 rifle to military services around the world."

Last 2 self-defense incidents in my city:

1. Road-raging 60 year old man gets out of his SUV in a traffic jam on the Interstate to confront a female motorcyclist. Fisticuffs ensue, she pulls a handgun and kills him.
2. Teenager hears men breaking into his house, hides in an upstairs closet, his German Shepherd confronts them, they pump bullets into the dog and flee. Dog survives; community raises 500% of the cost of the surgery.

I have never heard of a MSSA used in self-defense but I'm willing to learn.

You'll never know when an zombie army might attack you either.

Of course, he didn't know that. So, yay?

What a charming dirtball violence story. So much of the context left out - why did the 1st incident even take place? Why are 17 year olds in East Jesus, NC armed and shooting at each other? Women? Drugs?

Kid should have had TWO German Shepherds.

You attack a member of a dog's pack, you should expect to lose some flesh

boycott the crap out of the NRA and turn the GOP into a permanent 10% minority

There was a thread on gun CEOs recently- I think smith and Wesson ceo makes $5M ? And he sinks some of that back into the NRA, to sell more guns, to make more money.

Of all the varied and interesting thins things one could spend their time doing in our amazing world, that some choose this is, how shall I put this...disappointing.

If they were no longer able to shoot at things with those king of guns, I suppose their lives would be diminished beyond all hope, so, we have have mass murders as an Oh Well side effect.

Pathetic.

Search "man defends home from 3 armed home invaders with AR15"./

Yours is not an accurate synopsis of the story.

The AR-15 was not used in self-defense against the 3 "home invaders". It was a handgun.

The AR-15 was brandished in front of the media by a relative at a later date.

without out harming a single living thing.

They're a'comin.

Old fart ranchers with bum eyes love the large capacity magazines to increase their odds

Laugh not, they use rifles to shoot pine cones off trees so they can test them for ripeness without having to climb the tree.

Quick edit: Malaya never used the AR-15 in any military capacity that I could find, though they did buy the weapon.
