....our necks!
I've got this interview with Joe Manchin and I have to tell you that my attitude is damned near the same. I don't need an AR15, a Mini14 is much less scary and I would vastly prefer an AR10, (in 308 NATO) for serious insurrection stuff. But, I have to support, (out of loyalty to our clan) everybody that likes them, and is concerned about the slippery slope.
I do not know if AR15 is the hill we must die on, but I do know that it's a pain in the ass and always has been. I'm consistent, I've never been a fan but I also have never been in favor of using it as a sacrificial lamb; throw a bone to the Lefties. They won't quit with just an arm and a leg, as all of us know, or we sure as hell should know it!
But, here we are again, Deja Vu! They still can't define the fucking animal, so they have a lot of nerve attempting to ban it! Get it right, dot the fucking I's and cross the motherfucking T's! I have some hope that they are too ignorant to define an AR15, but am very concerned that they intend to go totally overboard and throw the net very wide to include firearms that just CHAMBER the 223 round, or 5.56 M855, I am probably wrong with the nomenclature? Whatever?
Anyway, here's the interview.... and if this guy is WOBBLY, it doesn't look good!

Seems to me that back in the 'Roaring Twenties' all of the same arguments used to ban the Thompson Machine Gun are being recycled again for the !R-15.
The Tommy Gun was banned to eliminate crime and mass shootings yet, here we are again. Ban the AR-15 and crime & mass shootings will go away.
Didn't work then and it won't work now.
