First & foremost EDUCATE Yourself. Assault weapons are ILLEGAL for civilians to own because a Real assault weapon is what the Federal Agencies, Military & Police use because they fire Multiple Bullets with a single trigger pull or fire Continuously until the Assault weapon runs out of Bullets or they let the trigger go.

Armed guards in schools? What a stupid idea by the NRA!

Newtown Calls for Armed School Officers

Armed guard disarmed teen in Atlanta school shooting, says police chief

Are you tired of the US Constitution? Then AMEND it!

KNOCK IT OFF YOU WACKED OUT DEMONCRAT!!!

He deserves our support to be Replaced. He has no clue what is happening on the streets. There were TWO Home Invasions within a week where I live in Essex & I live across the street from the county refueling station. One of the home invasions firearms were stolen along with the gun case they were in.

their arguments against the Constitution are weak without the fear they instill in the false words they use.

You are not trying to solve the problem. You are part of the problem. Fanatic is a good word for you. Look it up.You feed fear. You twist language to suit fanatic illogical rants. A person that can not change their mind can not change anything. It isn't good guys and bad guys. It's unstable people having access to weapons. Listen to yourself - you don't want any rules for anything. That's anarchy. If you need more than 6 shots for anything I don't support you. We register cars and have rules about them. Guns kill more children than cars people. Be sane and support sane regulation man. Chief Johnson is not trying to persecute you - he wants to protect us regular people and his officers. I fully support him.

" Guns kill more children than cars people"

Factually incorrect. Unless you do like the civil rights deniers do and include "children" up to 18 years old who are murdered as gang bangers in cities like Chicago.

Wrong Tim Bird, an assault weapon is either classified as an automatic assault weapon or a semi-automatic assault weapon. You can make up your definitions all you wish. In actuality, semi-automatic is more dangerous as you are more accurate with it.

"You can make up your definitions all you wish."
That is EXACTLY what the civil rights deniers have done, made the definition up using arbitrary attachments to a semi auto firearm.

The DHS says they want 7000 for "PERSONAL DEFENSE"!

Joe, that's why they call it an arms race, isn't it? Guess who wins? No one.

More newspeak. Arms race is an example.

"If you need more than 6 shots for anything I don't support you. "

If you need more than 6 words to express your feelings I do not support you and your 1st amendment rights should be taken away form you.

"The True purpose of Law abiding American citizens owning the firearms in question is so if the Government be it State or Federal or both try to No longer Abide by the Laws that govern the individual state & federal government people would be on a somewhat equal fighting level to defend themselves against Tyranny of the Government."

This is utter nonsense. What good have your precious firearms been to prevent intrusion of the government on individual rights?

Laura M., there are many differences, a big one is in the round that is fired. Go read Laura, you'll learn something. You ever fire an AR15 or similar?

@Fifa, i own one. what's your point? it's less powerful than a hunting rifle.

Not as powerful as my Winchester Model 94 30-30.

Laura, define "less powerful"

I wish the Sandy Hook killer had brought your gun to school. There would be a lot more kids alive today, eh Joe?

@FIFA, the .223/5.56 round is less likely to penetrate large game, and is not recommended for hunting large game. look up ballistics if you're really interested in the facts.

that said, go here and watch the videos: http://falnfenix.blogspot.com/2008/11/evil-black-guns.html

Psst, Laura, are humans "large game"? Some apparently think so. What does the .223 round do to humans Laura, at close range, aimed at the head of children, please tell us? I'm sure you know.

Fifa, are you attempting to insinuate that i am a murderer? you'd be horribly wrong.

Laura, I did no such thing and that accusation is offensive. I asked you a straightforward question.

you're insinuating that i would know what a .223 round does to a juvenile human skull. i would not have a clue, other than the body mass of an adult human is similar to that of an adult deer. your comment reads like you're calling me a murderer, however, and i do not appreciate that.

The .223 NATO round was not designed to kill but to maim. It was designed to remove the combatant from the field and remove one or more other combatants that would be used to take the wounded out of battle.

When FIFA runs out of logic he immediately results to bait statements that mean nothing...like "Psst"...what the hell is that crap about FIFA..! Stay sharp ond on point or go play somewhere else..

Gee Joe Sanchez, why does the AR15 look-a-likes appear to be the weapon of choice in these mass murders? Are you telling me the killers have chosen the wrong weapon? Eh, Joe?

@Laura, the weapon of choice of these mass murderers is the AR15? The have chosen this weapon for their "hunt"? Are they dumb?

@Joe, I guess the 20 Sandy Hook kids got removed from the "field". Eh, Joe?

Shut up Buck, no one invited you to the conversation, go butt in elsewhere.

Tell us about 9/11 Buck.

"There would be a lot more kids alive today, eh Joe?"

Pure speculation for emotional effect.

"why does the AR15 look-a-likes appear to be the weapon of choice in these mass murders? Are you telling me the killers have chosen the wrong weapon?"

More idiotic assumptions from you. All I noted was the design of the round as asked for by NATO. You can pull all the idiotic assumptions from that you care to but they will still be idiotic assumptions with no basis in fact.

"@Joe, I guess the 20 Sandy Hook kids got removed from the "field". Eh, Joe?"

Baiting comment with more idiotic assumptions where no basis exists.

Joe Sanchez, you make more excuses than a 3 year old with their hand in the cookie jar.

Thank u,,,taking away any weapon is a violation of 2nd amendment.
Its not the guns u idiots,,,,its the person behind the trigger.With ''our'' government restricting more and more of our god given rights as humanbeings,,its only a matter of time for a needed revolution to protect our rights that are being taken away ever day by unethical rich people literally buying our governments congrees,senate,f.d.a.,e.p.a.,,,u name it,,it is now bought and pay'd for by the rich.This is y,humanity,ethical,moral,mercy,and money for a mental health is no-longer available to 99% of the population..Of course they want to take our guns away,so we have nothing to defend ourselves against our own corrupt government,thats the truth,like it or not.Last time I checked we are NOT,RUSSIA,..Anyone from Maryland,Virginia,Washington D.c.,,are ALL corrupt,they do our governments unethical bidding,y?because Washington D.c. employs all this people in those surrounding states,anyone from those states OUR LIERS!!!THERE LIERS,,,THERE STATICS ARE FRAUDULENT,IE JAMES JOHNSON LIES!!!!,paita

"you make more excuses..."

More LIES by FIFA. He could not post "excuses" from me if he tried. Lies lies and the liars that tell them is FIFA.

Only for irresponsible firearm owners who do not lock them in a safe or other secure container.

Knives are assault weapons...

Don't be a dick Frank..

Wash your mouth Buck, I see it is back to normal.

Give us a coherent description of what an "assault weapon" is Steve. And what makes them different than any other rifle in firepower or accuracy!

No answer Steve?

No Steve I'm not an Oatkeeper. I don't even belong to the NRA because I don't need anyone to speak on my behalf on my Rights that have been given to all American Citizens since the Birth of the Declaration of the Independence & the Bill of rights. I have served this Country in & out of Combat as a member of the US Army. I'm Not talking about any Conspiracy theory. Where in New Orleans when National Guardsmen & Police went door to door Confiscating Law Abiding citizens firearms & leaving them defenseless against anyone that still had a firearm & wanted to rob & rape & believe me the Police starting becoming those individuals & I am speaing from First hand experience because I was down there with the Baltimore City FD. Bottom line the 2nd Amendment is in place to allow Law Abiding citizens to remain as equally armed as possible as the Police & military are in case the Government attempts to become a Tyranny so those that are armed can fight against those such individuals.

Go read the ATF definition smart one. Then come back. So what about your "qualifications", that apparently doesn't make you intelligent.

PS, I am ex-military.

Here smart tim, go read, if you can.

FIFA..nowhere in the link that you provided is the definition of what an assault weapon is...you are wrong as usual...

And you were never in the Military either FIFA...no proof has ever been provided dispite your various claims....don't ask...don't tell lies..

Buckaroo, you have no clue about anything do you?

Hey dumb Buck, go read under "semi-automatic assault weapon", I know you have trouble reading, look under the letter "s", you'll be surprised.

I know that I have your number FIFA...your bait statements do tell..show us some proof of your military experience or quit the convenient lies about it...
And if you post a link to provide proof of your claim make sure that it does just that..

Buck the only number you have is for the senile senior citizen home. You are a silly old fool that has yet to have an opinion other than mouth off. But that is all you do old man. How's that 16th amendment stuff working out for you?

Assault would fall under A FIFA...but there's nothing about assault weapons under S either...you should read before posting links like this...you do it all the time...and don't call me names.. or act like a dick anymore..

FIFA 3:07 pm on Friday, February 1, 2013 "Wash your mouth Buck, I see it is back to normal."

FIFA 1:59 pm on Friday, February 1, 2013 "that apparently doesn't make you intelligent."

FIFA 3:05 pm on Friday, February 1, 2013 "Buckaroo, you have no clue about anything do you?"

FIFA 3:06 pm on Friday, February 1, 2013 "Hey dumb Buck,"

Yup, back to normal.

@Joe - your buddy Bucky began the crap. You are as much a ridiculous poster as he is. Eh, Joe?
@Bucky - I have posted it below. You notice no one else has questioned the link:

"Semiautomatic assault weapon. (a) Any of the firearms, or copies or duplicates of the firearms in any caliber, known as:"

Then continues for many lines after that Bucky. Apology in order?

Nope...once again you are wrong FIFA...not sure what you're trying to pull here..but you added the word assault and nowhere in the link that you provided does it say that...get with it FIFA..!

Self control is absent.

Buck, you are now certifiably nuts. How did I go to the government website and get it changed? Are you crazy? Stupid question, never mind. Do you hear Joe Sanchez defending you on this one? Ever wonder why?

Do not drag me into your sandbox fights Fifi!

Joe Sanchez, you'd be defending one of you own in a heartbeat if he was "right". But he is not in this one and your silence in the sandbox is deafening.

The ATF repeatedly violates the Constitution ... descriptions used in these violations are not law , but rather words used in vain to provide some sort of unjust illusion.
The ATF by design violates the Constitution....play with that truth a while..

Buck, your man card is no longer accepted here. Revoked.

I defend no one and STOP dragging me into your sandbox fights Fifi!

Gee, where is Tim Bird?

I didn't lose a thing Bucky.

How much you willing to pay to see my DD214? Huh, Bucky?

Not going to happen FIFA...we've been through this exercise many times with you...
you bark a lot but don't have a bite...the wanna bet crap, or how much are you willing to pay only weakens you stand and point...yuo were NEVER in the military...end of story.

So now Buck when dared to pay to play, he runs and hides in the chicken coop.

I am surprised, no. Buck talks a big game but will not put money where his mouth is. It can be arranged Buck, I'd even let Joe Sanchez hold the money and give him 10% of the pot. Say it ain't so Joe.

If you were really in the military you would be proud to use your real name here...and would provide proof right out in the open...but you were not and will not...
Also ...laws that violate the Constitution remain non laws, no matter the wording or description...they are only recognized by sheeple that don't know the difference and have never lived freely..

Buck, all it takes is money and you will find out. If you are soooo positive, put up some serious Romney type of cash. C'mon Buck, you are being called out. Giving up your man card.

If I am a liar as you say, you will take home a lot of pay! C'mon Buck, I bet some of your friends will back you. I'm sure Joe, Lorna, and Chris will help you out.

Name the number FIFA...There has never been a FIFA in the military and you know it...name the number... glad to see that I've captured your attention ...your focus is easily altered..

$100,000 for the name behind FIFA

STOP FIFI from dragging me into your childish sandbox fights! Grow some for yourself!

Buck, I am not a fool, I see your sleight of hand.

Go away Joe Sanchez.

LMAO...the trembling little mutt once again trying to paint himself as a war veteran. What hilarity.

How so?

Which Patch would that be Lorna?

No Lorma. The thread is past gun control. It is fear and loathing. Consumed by "conservative" ignorant white (mostly but not always white) people that don't have a clue that the Chinese will eat their grandchildren's lunch if you don't get serious about funding a top notch public education system for this country. You are good at spreading alarm Lorma. Communists? Is that your real fear? Gays, blacks, foreigners? You rail for people that don't believe in paying their taxes. Anarchists. People that grab tabloid nonsense and half truths as fact and who ignore real facts and statistics. Guns are a societal and medical issue. The issue is not second amendment. You have let the kooks eat away at your other rights while being distracted. You don't utter a peep that your elected "conservative" politicians permit unfettered recording of all of your email, text, tweet and phone conversations. Or the lobby/politician industry that is where your real money goes. I think you have a right to bear arms - in the army. Not carry weapons of mass destruction in society. Is there a limit to the size of the gun you want - 30 mm? 55 mm? Do you want missiles too?

Think you're misreading a bit much into Lorna Roger...and how the hell can you determine black from white posters on these threads?
Lorna has addressed, (quite eloquently I might add), all of the issue that you just brought up....
Regarding your gun statements ...you left out the baa that most sheeple include.

Rather short sighted of you Roger!
