Imagine this if aussault rifles were banned

The guy that caused the orlando shooting wouldnt have killed anyone. Instead, he wouldve went to lowes and bought enough chemicals to kill EVERYONE. [spoiler] it could have been a semi auto gun, but whatever u get the point[/spoiler] [spoiler]look people i get it, he didnt use an assault weapon, but u can still get the point[/spoiler]

  • He didn't use an "assault" weapon. He used either a AR-15 or a Sig Sauer MCX. Both are NOT assault weapons. An assault weapon used by infantry has one defining feature: the ability for fully automatic and burst fire. The "A" in "AR-15" does not stand for "assault". It stands for "Armalite". It is gas powered and can ONLY FIRE IN A SEMI AUTOMATIC FASHION, MEANING THAT YOU FIRE ONE BULLET PER PRESS OF THE TRIGGER. "Assault" weapons are not currently available to the general public as I know. An AR-15 only looks like an assault weapon because it is based off the design of an assault weapon, because the design is exceptional in ergonomics and functionality.

      Meanwhile he could have also brought shotguns, handguns, and improvised explosives. It doesnt matter what you do, if someone wants to do something bad enough, it will happen.

        • The UK doesn't have terrorist attacks because guns are the only sure fire way of making it work. But if you give a psycho a gun look what happens.

          "An assault rifle is a selective-fire rifle that uses an intermediate cartridge and a detachable magazine" -wikipedia So why should we ban them? Not all assault rifles are fully-automatic. (if that is why you think They should be banned)

              • Sorry but buying a ready to use AR 15 is easier to use, prep and hide. Buying the crap to make an explosive takes more work and expertise. That's why you see most of the home grown terrorism events using guns. The idea is to make it harder for this to happen

                  • You can buy stuff at a grocery store that when combined makes a deadly gas. Toss that homemade gas bomb into a crowded club then seal the exits. Let's say a town has a gang going around bludgeoning people with baseball bats. So they ban baseball bats. All they've effectively achieved is a town where nobody gets to play baseball anymore. The gang will still be attacking people.

                      An assault rifle is a select fire fully automatic rifle.

                      • Assault weapons of any kind I think are military grade. So no normal citizen can own them.

                            • That's not really a valid argument. I don't see why Americans are so protective of their guns. Surely if you want to shoot something just go to a shooting range. I'm in the uk so obviously we don't have the right to bare arms and we really arnt bothered. I don't think your country has enough respect when it comes to guns. Watched a video the other day of two men arguing about something trivial. End of the story is one of the men whips out his pistol and starts waving it around. A lot of the people in America seem to be trigger happy and resort to pulling out their gun. But this is just my opinion......./fact

                                • If you mean assault rifles, they are already highly restricted. What the Orlando shooter had was a semi automatic rifle. Only military models have full auto. And only older ones at that. The M16A3 has safe, semiautomatic, and 3-round burst
