No you're not. This entire post is about wanting to ban the AR-15. Aka regulate it. Stop trying to mask your intentions it doesn't do you any favors. We all know what they are.

It's strange that you demand such precision regarding gun specific terminology but your rigorousness disappears immediately when it comes to using terms like regulate and ban correctly. Perhaps until you can use those terms correctly you should remove yourself from any topics concerning them.

Bans are subsets of regulation, no?

[–] magnusrufus 1 points 1 year ago

That seems like an oddly narrow question given Marios misuse.

I'll wait for you to show me a country that didn't go whole hog and take and ban basically everything but bolt action...

I'll wait for you to move the goal posts back.

Again, regulation is not the same as banning. I have no idea why you would think it is. And this conversation you butted into was about gun safety. I literally pasted what started the conversation.

So how would you regulate "assault weapons"? The last bill to do so, was literally called the assault weapons BAN....

Oh, you're done lying and insulting? You want to have a discussion now? Because if you want me to answer that or any other question, at the very least you could do was own your bullshit lie when you claimed I thought the AR-15 was more dangerous than other guns or your other bullshit lie that I wanted to ban all guns... and failing that, you could apologize for saying I supported the fucking Taliban.
