NRA: We will oppose semi-automatic weapons ban
Source: CBS News
Though alleged shooter Adam Lanza used a Bushmaster AR-15 rifle when he murdered 20 young children and six adults at a Newtown, Conn., elementary school - not five months after the same type of gun was used to kill 12 at an Aurora, Colo., movie theater - the National Rifle Association "will continue to oppose a ban on semiautomatic weapons," the organization's president David Keene said today on "Face the Nation."
Arguing Bob Schieffer's point that if high-capacity weapons were banned or restricted, a baseball bat used instead would produce far fewer casualties, Keene tried to make the case that shooters - not the guns - are the problem. Asked how many rounds an AR-15 - the most popular rifle in the country - or another weapon in the semiautomatic family can discharge in five seconds, Keene said, "Well, they fire when you pull the trigger... they don't keep firing. That's a fully automatic weapon."
"These aren't military weapons," Keene continued. "If we equipped our army with the AR-15, we'd be beaten by every Third World - you know, every Third World dictatorship in the country. Military weapons are fully automatic weapons, and that's illegal. You don't get those. That's not what we're talking about."

were these white guys using their guns against anybody? did any of them use force or violence to injure anybody or damage anyones private property?
if not, and everyone was acting peaceful and morally, what is the crime?
youre condeming peaceful action. you would make people into criminals because they possess an object, i would only make people into criminals because they used an object with agression and/or violence.

Should I go with the original TOW package, or maybe the Javelin system. But for air threats, you can't beat the Stinger package. Now if my kid accidentally fires off a few 7.62 rounds into the neighbors house, killing his wife? Oooops. Accident! It's not the weapon's fault. It's just one of those things. And for those assholes who cut me off in traffic? How about a TOW up the tailpipe! Road rage situation. Sorry about that! And if it gets stolen, I am in no way responsible for any of the mayhem caused by my lack of responsibility and good judgment.

(5 posts)he is mostly right, people who use force or violence against others are always wrong and always criminal, not people who just own an object peacefully.
theres nothing unpeaceful or morally wrong with owning a 30rd clip or a semi auto ar-15. its actions that are wrong, not property.
i'm against nonviolent victimless crimes (which owning a 30rd mag would be if they were banned), expanding the police state, expanding the prison system, decreasing civil liberties, etc. so i'm conflicted.
peaceful actions are not criminal actions. there's nothing criminal about owning an ar-15 with a 30rd mag and shooting it at paper at the firing range, why make such an individual into a legal criminal? or demand that he surrender his property to the state though he has done no wrong with it, and use force and violence to coerce him to do so?
as a principled liberal, i'm conflicted on this issue.

The Court has upheld gun control legislation including prohibitions on concealed weapons and possession of firearms by felons and the mentally ill, laws forbidding the carrying of firearms in sensitive places such as schools and government buildings, and laws imposing conditions and qualifications on the commercial sale of arms. The historical tradition of prohibiting the carrying of dangerous and unusual weapons supports the holding in United States v.

Everyone doesn't have to be allowed to own every- and anything they want just b/c they want it. We don't allow citizens to keep tigers in their back yards. We regulate prescription drugs. We have speed limits on the highway. Why? Because sometimes the greater good trumps one man's wants.
No one NEEDS a semi-automatic weapon so not owning one can NEVER be claimed as some kind of hardship.

NickB79
(19,277 posts)Though I would note that this conflict was brought up before the Supreme Court recently, and they found it not an issue: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution
Under the standard model, the opening phrase was believed to be prefatory or amplifying to the operative clause. The opening phrase was meant as a non-exclusive exampleone of many reasons for the amendment.[20] This interpretation was consistent with the position that the Second Amendment protects a modified individual right.[121]
The question of a collective rights versus an individual right was progressively resolved with the 2001 Fifth Circuit ruling in United States v. Emerson, in the 2008 Supreme Court ruling in District of Columbia v. Heller, and in the 2010 Supreme Court ruling in McDonald v. Chicago. These rulings upheld the individual rights model when interpreting the Second Amendment. In Heller, the Supreme Court upheld the Second Amendment as protecting an individual right.[122] Although the Second Amendment is the only Constitutional amendment with a prefatory clause, such constructions were widely used elsewhere.[123]
The term "regulated" means "disciplined" or "trained".[124] In Heller, the U.S. Supreme Court stated that "[t]he adjective 'well-regulated' implies nothing more than the imposition of proper discipline and training."[125]
So basically, you are "well-regulated" if you allow yourself to be properly disciplined and trained if so called upon by the government in time of need.
beac
(9,992 posts)In any case, your example didn't support your argument, period, whether or not you agreed with it.
Supreme Court's "one of many" excuse stinks to high heaven, especially in light of the Gun Owners of America prez's assertion that they need guns to be able to fight AGAINST the government. Not exactly the types to likely answer their nation's call, certainly not "disciplined" and a positive proof against the premise of the idiotic SC rulings.
Jenoch
(7,720 posts)The USSC ruled on that issue.
someday, Scalia and his cronies will go down in history as the most corrupt, inept and unqualified clowns ever to disgrace the Supreme Court. In the meantime, if we need to write an amendment banning semi-automatics and high-capacity magazines in language so clear that even Nino and his band of merry idiots can understand it, so be it.
Enough is enough. Some weapons DO NOT belong in the hands of civilians.

(19,277 posts)I've mostly used mine for target practice, just shooting paper targets at the range.
I've hunted some small game at my dad's farm with it, mostly woodchucks and jackrabbits that were tearing up the orchard and pastures. It is legal here in MN to hunt deer with, but I haven't used it for that yet. My uncle uses his AR-15 for shooting prairie dogs in South Dakota, and coyotes here in MN. Further south, I know that it's a very popular gun for shooting feral hogs and nutria.
While I keep mine locked up and unloaded at home, I know that many people feel the AR-15 is a very good gun for home defense if needed.
beac
(9,992 posts)And all the other uses you mention DO NOT require semi-automatic weapons and high-capacity magazines. (One could also argue that hunting is not "peaceful" for the animals being killed, but that's a topic for another day.)
NickB79
(19,277 posts)Not so peaceful for the aggressor, but certainly more peaceful for the defendant than being beaten, stabbed, or otherwise injured or killed.
And yes, you're right that these activities don't REQUIRE a semi-automatic rifle or one with high-capacity mags. It's just that they're so much better than bolt-action, pump or lever-action guns that they're now the most popular guns on the market.

I'm not worried about a semi-auto ban because I know it won't happen.
Edited to add: Hunters use a semi-auto so they can shoot again if they only wound an animal instead of killing it. I'm not a hunter, and I've never seen the point.
Sekhmets Daughter
(7,515 posts)while they are now a majority of hunters, many still prefer the accuracy of the bolt action rifle.

hack89
(39,171 posts)that is why they are the standard for competitive target shooting.
bamacrat
(3,867 posts)Weapon implies all guns. Handguns are almost all semi-auto, even revolvers. I do completely understand the concern with semi-auto rifles, but the media and therefore a lot of people equate semi-auto weapons with assault rifles and they are not the same. Piers Morgan berated this guy over the fact that the Bushmaster can shoot three rounds a second, and said semi-auto rifles should be banned. They guy couldn't get a word in but Morgan was wrong a fully auto rifle can shoot three to five rounds a second and has no place in society for any reason. Semi-auto only shoots one time when you pull the trigger, full auto shoots continuously until you release the trigger. One a second maybe two for a really small caliber gun with little kick. Big difference.
I am fully against full-auto anything, high capacity magazines, free for all gun shows etc.. But I like to shoot guns for fun, I don't hunt, never really could bring myself to kill something even if I was going to eat it. I can go buy it and since I am from Alabama I have many friends who have deer meat on the regular if I get a hankering for deer. Not that I ever really do.
Sekhmets Daughter
(7,515 posts)Sorry, just look at any definition of the word weapon. I have no problem with the semi-automatic weapons...as long as it is registered, a background check was completed before it changed hands and someone must stop to reload after 7 shots. Who resurrcted this old post, I wonder?

(1,054 posts)full auto is pretty much impossible to control unless you have the firearm mounted. The only thing full auto handheld has ever been used for is forcing the other side to keep their head own whilst mounting an assault or the like. "Spray and Pray" ends up putting rounds in the ceiling or up in trees.
There are reasons for large capacity magazines (loading up magazines in the cold or at an by the hour range is a bitch), and I don't thing it's really going to solve anything (only addressing the mental health issues is going to do anything long term, I think guns are a symptom not the problem; that doesn't mean you don't also address the symptom). But the NRA is in denial and as long as there isn't full scale confiscation there won't be the backlash they are counting on.
Just my .02 as a lifelong progressive Democrat and a gun owner; living in California I don't really have a dog in this fight as we can't get that sort of rifle here anyway, and I have no need for anything beyond my revolver- if I can't defend myself with 6 shots then it's time for Darwin to take me away.

(7,720 posts)used by the military today, M16 and M4 fo example, are select fire. That means either semi-auto or full-auto, but only in three round bursts. The days of emptying a 30 round magazine with a single pull of the trigge have been gone for a while now.

Sorry but it does not work like that. You would have to fill in the holes on the AR lower, re drill the slightly bigger holes in a different location, toss out all the AR parts and start over again. All of the M16 parts are now controlled so you are going to have to find an other than legal source for them too.

(19,277 posts)That would ban many (maybe even most) popular guns used for hunting and target practice, as well as the vast majority of handguns purchased by people for self-defense.
While the majority of gun owners don't own assault rifles, the majority of them DO own semi-automatic firearms of some other variation. A semi-auto deer rifle. A semi-auto duck gun. A 9mm handgun. A .22 squirrel rifle. The last major piece of gun legislation passed in 1994 because most gun owners weren't effected by it, since most didn't own any of those types of weapons. The responsible, level-headed hunters, target shooters, and homeowners with handguns gave their approval because they knew it didn't impact them. Millions of them disagreed with the NRA on their stand then. Even with that splintered support, the NRA helped to get numerous Democrats voted out of office in the infamous 1994 election, which gave the Republicans control of the House and Senate.
I'd be very worried that something similar, or worse, would happen again if you give the NRA such a juicy recruiting and fundraising opportunity as banning all semi-automatic firearms.

It's like arguing how many angels can dance on the head of a pin, or whether the electorate is ignorant or stupid.........it's not going to get you anywhere useful.
The truth of it is, plain and simple, that the more guns you have, the likelier it is that some damn fool will get his hands on them, or a criminal, or that someone will lose their way and shoot their family or themselves.
The US hasn't had a well-regulated militia for 200 years, you won't be able to protect yourself against your government with whatever arsenal you've managed to collect, and there are few people fast enough and careful enough to use them to 'protect themselves.' It's bloody nonsense, and these circular arguments are just proving that there is no point in the NRA/GOP/ALEX lexicon that will allow a sane starting point for the discussion.
In fact, in the threads that I've seen on this board since the shooting in Sandy Hook, there isn't much sense about gun ownership at all. It's nonsense. All this discussion of rounds, caps, barrels, trigger rates....is avoiding the topic, which is that guns DO kill people, and there is no way of knowing who is going to snap and who isn't.

(39,665 posts)That was said so well it bore repeating.
JoeyT
(6,785 posts)up to a point. As long as everyone understands what's being talked about, it doesn't really matter. Everyone has a pretty good idea of what an "assault weapon" or "assault rifle" is, no matter how much they insist they don't. Everyone knows what clip means in common usage. Everyone knows if someone says "machine gun" they're talking about a full auto gun. Those are the three most common ones I've seen people get snotty about.
It's when people use "machine gun" to refer to a semi-auto or something similar that communication starts to break down.
NickB79
(19,277 posts)Could you define what exactly an assault weapon is for us? Because politicians tried in 1994 and failed spectacularly.
JoeyT
(6,785 posts)they typically mean a semi-automatic rifle that has a large (12+ round) magazine. There may be some outliers that use it to mean "Any gun", but for the most part a large magazine on a semi-auto rifle is what people mean. Generally assault weapon is used the same way.
NickB79
(19,277 posts)Is it no longer an assault rifle? Or is it simply the availability of those magazines that then makes it one, even if the owner never buys any? Would it be possible to simply ban all high-capacity magazines instead and require a government-sponsored buyback to take them out of circulation? I'd actually be fine with that; I don't need more than 10 rounds anyway in anything I own.
At least your definition makes more sense than the 1994 AWB or the call by many to ban all semi-automatic weapons, though.

(1 post)what is definition of "gun culture"
Jenoch
(7,720 posts)as an assault rifle is inaccurate. By definition, an assault rifle is capable of fully automatic fire (this includes three round bursts). Using the correct terminology is important. How can a law be written without correct terms? The term 'assault weapon' is political term, not a term previously used in the firearms industry.

(50,569 posts)The cyclic rate of fire of an M-16 rifle - how fast it shoots if you were to put it on AUTO (assuming you have an M-16A1 lower and not an A2 which only does three-round bursts - is 600 to 750 rounds per minute. At the very slowest rate, you will put ten rounds downrange every second.
Here is my challenge: Let you, Mr. NRA president, and I go to a gun store and purchase, with the NRA's money, ten AR-15 rifles, twenty magazines and three thousand rounds of commercial ammo. We will then get 100 non-NRA members who have never handled an AR-15 before. They will be given instruction in loading and ejecting a magazine. They'll practice this skill. Then they will be given a Test: a rifle with the bolt locked to the rear and a full magazine will be placed on the table in front of them. When a whistle blows, they are to pick up the rifle, load it and fire all 30 rounds as fast as they can. The exercise ends when the mag is ejected and the rifle is back on the table.
If 100 non-shooters can drain a 30-round mag in 15 seconds or less, a bill banning civilian ownership of any weapon with a semiautomatic action and a detachable magazine will be entered. Its working title will be Wayne's Law.
The NRA will never go for it because anyone with a working trigger finger could do it.
