And actually every M14 except for the National Match is capable of full auto fire. Some of the issued rifles did not have the selector switch installed, and that is the only thing that limited it to semi-auto operation.
I'm pretty sure you meant M1 or M1A. The M14 is capable of fully automatic operation. That aside, if your friend's M-whatever has a flash suppressor as most M-whatevers do, it is now on the banned list. That one feature a week ago was perfectly acceptable. But now it makes him a homicidal maniac who will be unable to control himself.
Actually, It makes most semi-automatic firearms illegal. Everything but revolvers and large caliber handguns. Those Ruger 10/22's that many kids grew up with are now assault rifles. My Browning Medalist target.22, is now an assault weapon and if I lived in NY, would be banned.
No, the question is, how overbearing do you want the State to become? How many laws is it going to take before we are 100% safe in our daily lives? What is that country going to look like?
I wonder how many people are beaten to death every year with no weapon at all? Now that the Supreme Court has ruled that you can be compelled to purchase a product, I think every man woman and child should be required to own a pair of fitting boxing gloves. It's only a matter of time until the government can compel you to use the things it has compelled you to buy.
That's funny, I've been listening to Democrats blame movies and video games for the last month. But of course this being Slashdot, the first Republican that opens her mouth about it gets the headline.
Why stop at the 90's? Is this somehow the natural tax rate of the United States? Do all taxes need to be framed in reference to the tax rates of the 1990's? If they were so great, why don't we institute those tax rates across the board? Taxes were cut in 2001 and 2003. We have had the same income tax rates since then. If congress willingly lets those tax rate expire, that is a tax increase.
Who's the greedist here? You're the one that seems to think you are entitled to more of Google's money. Do you think other economic systems have managed to eliminate greed as a fundamental human trait? Capitalism is the only system that has recognized this and uses it to advantage.
What if I don't want to eat in the store? If the $20 store = (tax environment + social services), there would be no alternative $5 store. Your analogy stinks.
I'm intrigued by this painting. The double-helix structure of DNA wasn't hypothesized until 1953, and the dual strand nature wasn't hypothesized until 1927. Do you know anything about this, or is it just another way cool art thing like Michaelangelo painting god sitting on a big brain in the Sistine Chapel?
What are you talking about? I've read on the internets about the evils of dihydrogen monoxide, and that's the primary chemical used in fracking. They use literally millions of gallons of it and just pump it into the ground like it won't matter.
The entity known as Palestine has never signed and ratified the Geneva conventions, nor does it abide by the Geneva conventions. Therefor it is not entitled to the protection of the Geneva conventions. Idiot.
I'm tired of my forced upon me PO box being filled with dead tree products on a daily basis. I refuse to use US Mail out of spite. Get rid of bulk rates, let the US Mail service become the essential service it should be.
What sort of idiot eats chilli from a plate. I think we need an independent corroboration of this study. Has it been peer-reviewed by an acceptable scientific journal?
that as a result of this resignation, his testimony at congressional hearings next week on Benghazi has been cancelled. I'm not quite sure how that exempts him from hearings, I wouldn't be surprised to see a subpoena issued.

Oh, for sure. I'm not disagreeing with the quality or design. It's an excellent rifle.

Using the term "monopolieS" to describe players in a single market is kind of an oxymoron, is it not?

You guys do understand the difference between a Foxnews article, and an AP Wire article, right?

No he didn't. He doubled the mandate.
I'm so glad that so called warrantless wiretapping ended in January 2009.

lol, there is no factor of 5 to 10. There is a factor of 5, and there is a factor of 10. Huge difference between the two, which is it?
If you've seen one, you've seen 'em all!
