Cops breaking the law does not equate to cops that you can get in trouble or do anything about. 


Most of the laws we have are pretty useless as they have no private remedy.  Somehow they're good laws but only good when the government gets to pick and choose who they enforce them against.



And I think shroomz is just trolling for reactions or something.


Its easy enough to check and see if automatic weapons are banned for civilian ownership in this country, so I think he just doesn't like them and somehow figures its acceptable to tell people that their aquaintances are contemplating assaults and deserve many years in jail for completely legal conduct... just cuz he doesn't like it maybe?




It always amazes me that some folks who don't like guns really have no idea what is and isn't allowed in this country. 


From what i can see most of the gun violence is a result of handgus and other small weapons that would be relativly unhindered by magically taking away all but single shot pistols.  I think the "assault weapon" and automatic weapon fear is mostly the result of appealing to availability heuristics and ignorance.  It always cracked me up to see folks agast at these assault weapons being legal when they seem like nothing more than hunting pistols with different grips or an attachment for a knife or something.



Here's a fine example of legislative ignorance.  Lets make something illegal without worrying whether it makes any sense at all or whether we even know wtf it is.  She pretty much says rather than trying to affect crime we were just finding correlations and banning those.  (that claim is bullshit by the way- stunningly incorrect, but it woudl be stupid logic anyways absent some inkling that banning these features is at all relevant.


How does an author of a very concise law not know the major provisions?  How can you ban something and not know what it is... at all?  let alone why it needs to be banned.

Well probably not, it depends on what they define as a "gun".  If air guns were considered "guns" though it appear you would, yes, have that weapon be considered an assault weapon (I forget how many features were needed in that bill, some only need one, some need two).


I just don't get it.  You can take a pistol and put a barrel shroud on it, and that is somehow more dangerous?  The bayonet thing is weird too.  Knifes are legal.  What does putting a knife at the end of a pistol have to do with anything?  Note these laws don't require a bayonet, only a mounting bracket where one coudl be put on- essentially a nut or something.


Whatever you think of guns though, I just think its ridiculous someone is writing laws when they don't know what the actual meat of it does.  She wants to put these people in jail and yet doesn't even know who or why... but its a goodlaw :thumbup:



Hard to take people like that seriously- especially as a professional lawwriter.

Yeah, let's ban AR-15's but allow any idiot over 18 to go buy a Remington 7mm magnum hunting rifle:smirk:. I don't understand their logic behind all of this.

They can ban all the "assault weapons" they want. I'll just buy large caliber weapons instead.

Reminds me of Buckskin Bill.  I've been to his place on the Salmon river, it's pretty cool.

http://www.huntingmag.com/big_game/mountain_men/

Too bad you can't get away with what he did nowdays.

Anyways the depression hit and Buckskin Bill decided to just say "Fuck it" and go be a mountain man.  He went down the "river of no return" and set up camp.  The only way to really get there then was going down the Salmon river a long ways.  And they didn't have cool stuff like lifejackets and rubber rafts back then.

So he just went out and lived like a mountain man, he made all kinds of rifles.  Huge 20mm ones, cannons, all sorts of stuff.  At one point the forest service was going to come and kick him off of the land.  So he built this big stone gun tower near the river.  He had all these cannons and big rifles and was just going to blow them to bits while they were still in their boats trying to get to him.

If you ever get a chance take a trip there, it's a really fun rafting trip.  Permits are really hard to get though, unless you shell out the big bucks to go with a commercial group (guided rafting trip).

Buckskin Bill's is about halfway from the start to finish and it's about the only civilization you'll see the whole trip.

I don't want to get into a gun debate here, but since when did normal guns stop killing 40,000 people per year?

Guns don't kill people... Bullets kill people.

The difference between the substances doesn't matter. This is a war on consciousness, on our right to the very essence of what we are. With no control over that, we have no need to speak of freedom or a free society. -fireseed

I find the whole "my drug should be legal but yours should be illegal" mindset disgusting and hypocritical. It's what George Bush and company do when they drink a cocktail and debate the best way to imprison marijuana users. -Diploid

Since when have automatic weapons caused any signifigant death in the states? 

Despite their legality they simply aren't used cuz a handgun is easier, cheaper, and just as good.

if it really is a hick ass town with no crime, then it doesn't surprise me cause cops became cops for action.. If they don't get any they go looking for some. So they are just waisting time. Fuck them , but be careful. they are just waiting to beat somebody's ass.
