It is not censorship, as they are a private company. They have the right to do as they please. I definitely hate the idea that there is some belief that their removal of a drawing is the right thing to do, but who am I to argue? As long as everyone else is reacting to what just happened, we have the ability to push through something else. Yeah, politicians are the worst scum. It is a shame that they wouldn't go out and stare at a nuclear bomb landing on them.
It seems like divide and conquer; unfortunately both sides enjoy the conflict. While the peons argue about little things, we will start taking away the big ones. It is great... no one will ever notice.
Nice rant! I would like an answer to a few questions though. Why not have guns? Why not have lots of them? What part of the second amendment gives you the idea that they were not considering the possibility of an improvement in technology?
You specifically said that the reason for the amendment was to protect from tyrannical government, and then asked which one. This is very simple to answer. Which tyrannical government? ANY... Ours(local state or national), or yours. It is unreasonable to think that the protection provided by the amendment expires because the capabilities of the weapons advance. If you are to defend against this tyrannical government, should you not have the ability to acquire the means?
I also have a polite request... It is OUR constitution, not "the constitution".
While it is the logic mechanism of the weapon, it is not the action. I could load a
Or pack it with fertilizer and diesel fuel.
We aren't talking about controlling rifles and/or handguns, even semi automatics. I for one don't see why 30+ clip magazines and automatic-fire assault rifles are as freely available as they are.
Freely available automatic-fire assault rifles? Which ones? 30+ round magazines are available because they are a good idea. Less reloading time. Never loaded a clip into a gun or rifle, BTW... How does that work?
... Or a 14 year old with a pipe bomb. Would that be a force multiplier? Last I checked (from easily accessible data), there are thousands of bombing incidents a year. Give me the gun any day.
Its OK, we would have shot down their drone.
A lower does not deal with the combustion at all, you can make it out of anything if you like. I wouldn't use it in a DA/SA weapon. That would be foolish.
What assault rifle????
You want guns to be the problem.
The reason for the "well-regulated militia" is to have the ability to stand up to an oppressive government. Put yourself in the position of the people who wrote that document... Do you think hunting was the reason they made the second amendment? What did they just finish doing? Fighting an oppressive government. The people should have the right to stand up to their government.
Tell that to the people who were victims of bombings. This should be an interesting read, even though it is from 1997.

2217 bombing incidents in one year.
You want the gun to be the problem.
So if the NY Post says it is an assault rifle, that makes it true?
I can't believe this would be considered news? Facebook figures out how to do a redirect to a HTTPS page. No wonder their IPO was a flop... It will be amazing if they are here in a year.
