Somebody start up the thread.....determine if there's going to be a prize....and fill the calendar.

From what I've heard, Biden has to serve at least 2 years to make it worthwhile for her. Anything less and she isn't able to run for a second term. Dunno how true that is but I believe it has to do with rules put in place after FDR and his reign. I'm still amazed there are those cheering after he yells legit gibberish during a speech.

Odinson Posted November 2, 2020 at 04:33 PM Share Posted November 2, 2020 at 04:33 PM Back to the thread now. Heyjackass is a great resource with lots of data on Chicago shooting, but they lack one bit: type of weapon used in the shooting. I wish it were broken down by long gun vs handgun. I know there are distinctions within each and this is asking a lot, but it would help this whole 'assault' weapon narrative. So of the 3573 shootings in Chicago with 611 fatalities so far this year, I would guess that at most 3500 shootings were with handguns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynn Posted November 3, 2020 at 12:11 AM Share Posted November 3, 2020 at 12:11 AM I wish it were broken down by long gun vs handgun. With a 12% clearance rate on homicides and what I'm guessing is very low single digit clearance rate on other shootings, that is a stat that won't materialize beyond speculation, because even if the know the caliber that really doesn't distinguish the type of firearm. It's a safe bet most are pistols shootings due to concealability in public, but just the same if the left had it their way they would classify any semi-auto pistol an assualt weapon meaning to them most of the shooting are from assualt weapons anyway.

Wanna bet on it? what timeline are you talking about and how much are you willing to bet ? overall there is plenty of FUD regarding Biden and 2A - he can ban or not ban anything, what he can do is veto or not veto something House would pass. remember that AWB (1994-2004) was something House did (which if I remember it correctly also resulted in Dems loosing control of it to GOP pretty much soon thereafter). Do I have no doubt that Biden would happily sign whatever democratic house would give him on this? Yes, I am pretty sure of it. Do I worry about anything you listed earlier ? About the same as space aliens invading or 'UN troops occupying US' (which troops? who exactly?) . So not much worrying.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only sad part is amendment ratification does not have a shelf life. It can stay alive for years till it gets ratified. Best is to avoid it getting passed to begin with.

It's fact, not "perhaps". Modern gun control was kicked off by Ronald Reagan. The NRA supported it. My point being, you can't depend on a ® being pro 2A or a (D) being an Anti. That's an overly simplistic view of things, and doesn't actually protect the 2A because we'll get backdoored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
