    The fact that drunks use them to kill far more children every year than AR-15's and handguns combined.

    I'm not assuming anything, I'm directly addressing the fact that you want to take away what I consider my best tool for home defense.

    It only seems like that to people. Mainly to those who don't care about their fellow citizens, but only about themselves.
    Its actually those selfish people who want to override the interests and concerns of their fellow citizens just so that the selfish people can get their way.

    I'm not gonna get into the cars argument again, but you're wrong there as well.

    Use them to kill is formulated wrong. AR15s are used to kill. Drunk drivers cause deadly accidents.

    Not all guns and you know it. Nice try though. Haven't been tried before :p

    First I'd like to see your source for those statistics.
    Second have we taken any steps to address that problem?

    Why are you still replying to me?

    An attack on ARs is an attack on all guns.

    What makes you think that you are the sole arbitrator about what is best for society?
    Is everything me, me, me? You have no compassion for slaughtered first graders?

    I would use anything in my power to also defend and protect any neighbor, friend or fellow citizen that needed it, just as is expected of me and every other citizen of America.

    How do you know that and what if I do? So it's tough to get a gun, as long as you can still get one what are you bitching about?

    Nice redirect. Find anything I've said that supports that.

    Except give up your beloved AR 15 and have to use an "inferior" gun.

    Well that's easy. You are against "gun control". Guns are already controlled so that means you want free access to any gun by anybody at any time. No more gun laws at all.

    At Sandy Hook 20 first graders and 7 others were killed by a man with an AR 15. You don't seem to really care as long as you get to keep your AR 15.

    America is about individuality.
    Youre still making yourself sound innocent. If you had it your way, youd still be able to get an AR or a handgun.....


    But it would be next to impossible or extremely undesirable

    It isn't illegal to shoot someone if you shoot someone for a justifiable reason.
    It isn't illegal to drive drunk unless it's on a public highway.

    I don't own an AR15, I do own a light weight, short barreled high capacity semi automatic firearm. I don't believe it to be inferior in any way.

    Mow your lawn drunk on a ride on mower and have someone complain about it, let us know how it works out for you.
