Massachusetts’ law prohibiting the possession and sale of some semiautomatic weapons commonly used in mass shootings is acceptable under a recent change to Second Amendment precedent from the US Supreme Court, a federal judge said Thursday.
Well yeah. My point is the AR-15 isn’t anything special these days. To single it out is irresponsible at best. We need to tackle the general issue of semi-auto rifles with external magazines. Everything else is just performative crap.
The strategy is most likely to set a precedent with the most common, recognizable and notorious weapon of the bunch. Once the precedent is set, alternatives will follow.
And i guess there is something to be said for this. The so called “well-regulated militia” from back in the days pales in comparison to a trained 2 man shooter team with modern weapons.
Okay but we’ve been here before. They just tried to add more names. To which the gun industry just changed the names. Then they tried to ban certain features. To which the gun industry just built around them.
Until we deal with the heart of the weapon and the reason for it’s combat effectiveness we’ll remain in this cycle.
Not really. Hold on lemme go get you some examples.

Different league from the best muskets from back then. That the ar15 has plenty of contemporary peers is clear
