Cool now google total homicides Japan vs USA for last 50 years

Well then why don't we ban alcohol while we're at it? Do you realize how many innocent people are killed annually by drunk drivers? Think of all those innocent lives we could save if we'd just ban alcohol.

Then the argument becomes, "If we can save one child it's worth it. We have to ban assault knives."

It's a better argument to have. People will always kill others. They will just be able to kill more with an AR-15 style weapon. Over last 10-15 years the amount of AR style weapons in the market has climbed through the roof. They are now becoming the weapon of choice for suburban lunatics. In given time time it will become the weapon of choice for all criminals. The trend is going the wrong way in defending the AR as an innocent little bystander. It's a combat weapon.

I'll happily give up some of my alcohol privileges for a safer America for everyone if you'll give up some of your guns for a safer America too. Doesn't have to be a total ban on alcohol either just like it doesn't have to be a total ban on firearms.

It's unbelievable that the political Left has successfully indoctrinated the ignorant among us that the AR-15 Is the problem here. The VT shooter killed 32 with a Glock and a P22 - both pistols, and the P22 is a .22 long rifle. The AR is NOT a combat weapon. It will only shoot as fast as the shooter can pull the trigger, just like my Remington .30-06 semi-automatic or my Glock 26.

The next time a terrorist or some nutball plows through a crowd of people in, say, a Corvette that can unnecessarily go over 175 mph, are we gonna whine about banning them, too?

The answer is yes. Some effeminate beta male, spurned on by his wife's ire will call for a ban on "assault cars", for the children of course.

There's already a national ban on drinking and driving. Apparently it's working well...

Until liberals start screaming for a ban on alcohol, tobacco, sports cars, motorcycles and bicycles, I don't want to hear another word about banning AR-15s to "save a child's life". All of those claim more kids every year than AR-15s and the numbers aren't close. Baseball bats and fists killed more people than the AR-15 last year. Stop playing into the fear mongering.

I can't speak for everyone in this thread but I am not talking about banning just AR-15s. You are.
