Over here, we don’t need to buy guns with our weekly shopping supplies. We have liquor over 20% alcohol in a different section of the store. Can’t even buy cigarettes at the supermarket. Even slingshots and batons are illegal here. Did you know, with a 10 round magazine you can still kill 10 people before reloading? If your aim is right. That’s an acceptable amount? As those magazine sizes are allowed.
That’s what i’ve been saying for years. You don’t need a 30 round AR-15. A manual, 4 - 5 round bolt-action hunting rifle in the right hands can also be used for a mass shooting. Yet they’re completely legal in states like California. The only reason “Assault Rifles” (and I use quotation marks because the name “Assault Rifle” is based on a misconception) are so heavily regulated and labeled as having “evil features” is because they look scary. The AR-15 is a semi-automatic rifle, NOT full auto. Functionally, it’s no different to a hunting rifle. Yet the media never shuts up about that one specific model of rifle.
Looks Scary ≠ Lethality. I wish people would realize that.
Criminals don’t follow the rules anyway, so you can put as many restrictions on guns as you want for all the difference it will make. At least here in the U.S.
Unfortunately some people struggle to grasp that concept.
