Other than the police and the military , a military style infantry weapon designed for warfare and the killing of numerous enemy combatants who is it that the Second Amendment says should have this weapon?? I mea, its great business but the death toll is enormous.
Enormous death toll? It’s apparent you’ve never read any of the FBI National Crime statistics. More people are killed with knives or clubs every year than rifles! The AR-15 was never designed for the military or killing “numerous enemy combatants.” It’s lethality or lack thereof has been questioned since it was adopted by the AF and then the Army. You should troll somewhere else orch.
The answer is Every male of gun bearing age, although in this day and age, that would include females as well. By the numbers, 10 y.o. to “toss dirt in my face”. Read the Constitution and answer my question about your name. Military style means diddly squat. It’s not even a real poodle popper.

I don’t believe full-auto aren’t part of that description. So, if you want to abide by and believe in our Constitution, you would not attempt to deny us our rights that even Jefferson stated we have even without the 2A. The death toll is enormous? 8,500 by firearms, of which only about 400 are by all rifles and shotguns; 250,000 deaths by doctor error. Which is more deadly? Many of the firearm-related deaths… Read more »
@ OchWill Bla,bla,bla you are just trying to gain some attention to yourself. You should know better than what you post. But then again, I’m not sure your elevator goes all the way to the top floor.If it’s attention you crave, get yourself a good dog.
