      Wasn’t the synagogue a pistol?

      In any case, it’s the most popular rifle in America, just by sheer rate it’s going to be used more.

      Most gun homicides are done with handguns. This is completely off topic, unless you think mass shooting victims are the only real victims or something.

          Even if that was true, so fucking what?

          I deny your fundamental assumptions here, that something should be banned because it can be used to cause a lot of damage.

          Murder is illegal, it shouldn’t matter the tool used.

            The line is drawn somewhere. Civilians can’t purchase automatic weapons or say, hand grenades. Do you think we should be able to?

              They can actually. US Law allows the purchase of both.

              Both require a background check and a tax stamp.

                  You can buy both in America. It all depends on how much paperwork you want to fill out.

                  Sometimes you have to make a great commitment to start a business to do it.

                  It is actually shocking what you can buy if you had the interest, time and money to do it.
