As far as I know, the ban is still in effect in California.

Only you get less chances to hit your target with that one. So they do NOT function the same. It may fire the same round, but how many can it fire before you stop and reload.

semi-automatic... they fuction the same.

Magazine capacity does not change fuction, or lethality of the firearm. Just saves time in reloading, plus you can buy larger capacity magazines for rifles like that as well.

going with bumnahs quote up above:

Yea, its brought me food.

Its brought me peace of mind - especially when there were gunshots outside my window. Oh, and last week 4 people were murdered within a block of my apartment.

The ability to defend myself and my loved ones

enjoyment while 'killing' paper targets

Its let me bond with my father, my uncle, my cousin, and my best friends.






think of it this way... we're going to ban sporty cars. Any car with a convertable top, a power/weight ratio of XXX or better and that has a wheelbase length shorter than XX.

we're doing this because too many people are racing, So no spoiler for you, no rim/tire combo's with smaller than 50 series tires. You can't fix up a civic either, because of this new RCB (race car bad) you can't have many cosmetic features that a race car has. And while you may be a legal and safe driver - we don't trust you. so we're going to ban your miata, the civic, accords, sentras, etc... because so many people who have those cars race them and cause danger.

yeah, those benefits that you listed were ones i didnt instantly think of but now reading them, i agree.

edit: except the one about people gettin killed on my block and defending myself.... but the bonding one, definitely.... paper targets, yup.

and before everybody freaks out about the comparison, i have to say i back that up.... it is not that far from the same thing.

Well, I'm not so simple minded that I can't find something else to entertain me.

If gun control really would prevent murder, then me being bored for a few minutes until I found something else to amuse me wouldn't be such a horrible inconvenience.

But I don't think gun control has the ability to prevent death.
