Guns don't kill people, people kill people!!! That is what we have to remember here. Sheeple have lost that idea from their common sense area in there brain!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> It all begins with proper firearm training and good public out reach.
The AR platform is a great platform as described by Tolly. I love the idea that i can change my rifle into any configuration that I want. What scares people is the freaking media!! I can't stand watching the news anymore. I turn it on for the weather and then off. I would rather get my new from the internet. At least there I can research the subject thru multiple avenues and get a REAL "fair and unbiased" result. The media shows the AR style weapons being used for one thing.....killing other people. You see soldiers, police and criminals using these type weapons. The sad thing is if you do a little research you would find that a huge portion of gun crimes happen with other guns than "Assault Weapons". I hate that term by the way but I feel I have to use it to illustrate a point. My "Assault Weapons" are used to assault targets, animals and the occasional vegetable. LOL I tell you guys..... I could go on for hours about this stuff but I will digress...... you all get the point!!
