Would an assault weapons ban work?

<quoted text>VN Vet, thank you for your service. I have lots of friends who are veterans and without you guys I don't know where we would be today.

News flash: WE lost the war in Vietnam.

We'd be in the exact same spot we are now only with fewer people sleeping under bridges, and I doubt we would have found the need to fight the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan just to prove a point.

Tell me: how many people were killed in the USA last year with a machine gun?

How many died from gun violence? Want to nit pick this or that weapon? How many drone strikes did YOUR president kill kids with?

[DaveTV]

How many died from knives?

How many died from car crashes?

How many were killed by drunk drivers? There's a good one there, if laws were foolproof why does this still happen?

Why don't we ask the doctors why they can't put mental health in a background check, wasn't it something to do with patient privacy?

Another FALSE teabagger e mail?

A chain email says a lip-reading instructor has examined this video and determined Michelle Obama said,“All this for a damn flag.”

This time the email accompanying the video affirms that indeed, Obama did say “all this for a damn flag.” The proof:“The video was presented for translation to a lip reading instructor at The River School, a Washington D.C. school for the deaf,” the email claims.

Except, no. That didn’t happen. PolitiFact checked with Nancy Mellon, director of The River School, to be sure.


[T]he River School doesn’t teach lip-reading, Mellon said, and no one from the faculty has provided any interpretation of the video.

“It’s definitely not us,” she said.“We would never try to do anything like this.”

The best part: Because of the email’s high circulation, The River School had to put a disclaimer on its website about it.“Please be advised,” it says,“that The River School was not involved in any translation services for a recent video clip currently circulating on the Internet.”

Never under estimate the stupidity of a teabagger.

No, it doesn't.

They believe anything sent and regurgitate it as fact without question.

So you are saying the "ban" on M16s has been used to great effect?

If the AR-15 was as hard to own legally as the M16, those 20 kids in Sandy Hook would be alive today.

Not quite as bad as this:

Supporters of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin have taken to Wikipedia, where they have been trying all weekend to revise the page on Paul Revere to reflect her recent comments.

In her trip to Massachusetts last week, Palin flubbed the history of Revere’s ride, saying that he rode through Boston ringing bells to warn the British that the revolutionaries were armed and ready to fight. Revere actually rode quietly, to warn the revolutionaries that British troops were headed their way.

As first noticed by the blog Little Green Footballs, Palin fans have been attempting to add her version of the story to Revere’s Wikipedia page — a source of research information for more than half of college students. Other users have been deleting the changes as they appear, arguing that what Palin said in the past week should be kept separate from a page about an event that happened hundreds of years ago.

Palin is hardly alone among politicians for getting American history wrong. Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann (R) made a similar gaffe on a trip to New Hampshire earlier this year, placing the battles of Lexington and Concord in that state.

Where Palin is unique is in her — and her fans — defiant attitude. Bachmann admitted on Facebook that “it was my mistake” and turned it into a joking jab at Massachusetts. Palin, on the other hand, went on “Fox News Sunday” this weekend and defended her version of events.

“I didn't mess up,” Palin said.“I answered candidly and I know my American history ... Part of his ride was to warn the British that we’re already there.”

M16 is no different than owning a AR-15 which several of my neighbors own plus M1 garands and no problems which has been that way for 30 years.

you are correct the M-16 and the AR-15 are virtually the same weapon, yet many dispute that, nonetheless they are for military not civilian use.

The Vietnamese lost estimates are at 2.5 million; a little more than half were from small caliber weapons. Most of these occurred in the later years of the war.
I'm happy with my opinion: the .223 caliber effective for killing human beings.
You find anything that can disprove what I said, do give me a jingle.

Its funny, all these peps are buying guns and ammo like it's going to be taken away. No need for the Govt to take it. The next best thing is in the works.....laser beam tracker with kill/stun pulse. It shoots at light speed(c2),faster than a speeding bullet and will eliminate the need to regulate the primitive weapon, the gun. Plus, they are perfecting a mind focus devise that will incapacitate the enemies at great distances, beyond gun distances. It focuses power on the part of the brain that controls sleep.....I think you understand.
