"Fast Efficient People Killing Machines"- Brady Campaign

[pandatimothy]

From the Brady Campaign Website:


"The Assault Weapons Ban will expire next year unless Congress and President Bush renew it. The NRA is using its muscle to block legislation that will renew the law. If the NRA gets its way, police officers on your streets will soon be outgunned by fast, efficient, people-killing machines like AK-47s and Uzis that have been banned for a decade">.....

Last time I checked LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS WERE EXCEMPT FROM THE 1986 MACHINE GUN BAN AND 1994 AWB.

So if they are "outgunned" that their fucking police chief's fault!!

1. Unfortunately...

the cops having bayonet lugs on their rifles doesn't do much to increase their actual firepower...

2. Let's up the level of domestic terrorism. That's what America really needs

Let's have an arms race! Let's make law enforcement buy and carry the latest miltary rifles. Let's force every American to be able to deliver cover fire because his gun wacko neighbor carrys around an AK47. More guns and more powerful guns will make USA even more like a third world nation and less like a civilized "advanced" nation.

3. There are millions out there now and no

5. And so it begins....

the short descent into the pits of your hate. The sad thing is, you drag the rest of us down there with you.

6. Gee, fly

You could always make the case FOR assault weapons...if only there were one.

[Superfly]

8. Yes I could....

Between my brothers and I, we have over 30 guns, about 5 of which are "verrrrrrry scary looking" assault weapons.

So far, to date, here's the score:
Bullets fired: thousands
People killed, injured, maimed, or psychologically damaged: none

7. Bill, Bill, Bill....

....there aren't more dangerous weapons lurking out there than are available right now.

The AWB is just a sham, window dressing for a larger agenda.
