    want to ban semi-autos, and you know it.

    I say F the 2nd. And it was gun rights advocates who radicalized me, not Democrats.

      Is a pump-action shotgun not an armament? A bolt-action rifle? A revolver? I’m fine with an 18yo buying one of these. You want something more powerful then show you’re responsible enough to own it.

      Okay, well until we as a country determine that the constitution needs amending and we want to repeal the 2nd amendment, it’s the constitution that is the most important part of the law that every state must abide by.

      I like that you didn’t respond to the rest of my comment that showed how stupid yours was. What do you think of the criticism I had for your comment, do you just want to ignore my points of

      1. You’re strawmanning the argument
      2. This isn’t the scenario’s the democrats are targeting when they want to ban AR’s.
      3. If a different weapon was used, do you think it’s a good argument to ban said weapon?

        It is likely that the 3 y/o would not have killed the 1 y/o if a gun was not available.

        Unless murder was on the mind.

          You can’t see a scenario where instead of a gun the kid had, he’s playing with a knife and cuts the 1 year old? Have you been around many kids that age?

          But, please entertain me, if it was a knife, should we be trying to ban knives?

            I don’t ever remember my child playing with a knife, let along attacking another child with a knife. What kind of children are you around?

              I’ve never seen a child shoot another kid, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened, clearly. You’re doing a lot to avoid the question:

              if it was a knife, should we be trying to ban knives?
