@snood,
Quote:See, now - you knowno one here is asking to ban handguns. That’s disingenuous poppycock.
That just isn't true Snood, there are a couple of people on here who have straight out said we should eliminate the 2nd Amendment. MJ is one of those people, just because you don't, doesn't mean that there isn't people who do.
Quote:All I want is to somehow limit the number of rounds a person intent on killing people could fire off.
Well, you have 2 choices, limit magizene capacity or make semi-auto guns illegal, some states have tried ammo limits, a CA judge recently ruled such limits as unconstitutional:

As for the making semi-auto guns illegal, that is a vast majority of guns in America, even a revolver counts as a semi-auto.
Quote:That would mean things like banning bump stocks and large volume magazines.
Bump stocks have been banned, by Trump. Large volume magazines is vague. For most semi-auto rifles, 30 round mags are standard size mags not large capacity. I happen to think anything more than 30 would be large capacity but do we really need laws on such things?
They are claiming the VA Beach shooter had handguns, a 1911 to be specific, those are single stack mags, 9 shots if I do recall. They say he had "large capacity" mags, but I haven't read what they consider large capacity, as of this morning still no mention of capacity other than it was large.
