TexasRifleman ~ I still await your reply as to where you draw the line.
I've already explained this to you, but you're not getting it so I'll do it again, but it's making me tired.
What I personally believe isn't much relevant, since the chances of it happening are almost none, but I believe there is no difference between a machinegun, a bolt action rifle, or a pillow in the hands of a law abiding citizen and a law abiding citizen should be able to purchase all 3 with the same ease.
Now, that's not going to happen but what Scalia said in Heller is important. He opened the door to killing Hughes and it's entirely possible that Hughes could be reversed over the next few years.
As I said before, but you think I just make stuff up so you probably don't believe it, only 2 crimes have been committed with a legally owned machinegun since 1934, and one of the criminals was a cop. That's a pretty good provable factual record of legal machine guns posing no threat at all to society.
SAMs ok with you?
Main battle tanks?
Apache attack helicopters?
F22s?
Where oh where do you draw the line, answer up.
The more you post the less knowledgeable you sound.
There are already today, in private hands, F104 Starfighters, Main Battle Tanks, Cobra attack helicopters, F4 Phantoms, Chain Guns, there's an F15 that's close to being flyable, there's countless MiGs, lots of F5's, there's an A-10 that's nearly airworthy. There are 20mm cannons galore, 40mm grenades and grenade launchers for sale. Not much short of suitcase nukes isn't already owned by law abiding citizens in the US today.
All those things are for sale, legal to own and legal to use already. You're spouting off about the dangers of legalizing things that are already legal and out there.
If they are so damn dangerous to society how come I never read about them being used in a crime?
