But the bad guys will be disarmed so only the cops will be armed right?Don't the cops have firearms too?
And there probably isn't any edict for them to stop carrying them.
In the end, it comes down to who decides to shoot first, right?
I know what would happen if you walked around downtown Boston with an AK-47 or the like,
but your town probably has its own protocols
and they're thankfully not my problem.
Not if you have a bear license . I know a guy that took one with a bow and arrow. I prefer a knife and hand to paw combat.It's against the law!
My AR-15s are just tools. I prefer function over form in an AR-15
I have a Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 TI Carbon to hunt deer with because it is relatively light to drag around. About 5.5lbs without scope.

Boston was 8.6 per 100,000 and that is your problem.

My brother is a reloader he loads for us so my cost to shoot is fairly low. He likes tuning up guns to make them shoot better. I gave him a Mosin-Nagant made in 1939 and he tuned it up and now it shoots amazing groupings. I had to laugh though he had one of those spin around steel targets made of 5/8" steel. It said it was good for a 30.06. I shot it with an army load ammo Mosin round and it blew the target in halfMy Weatherby is a gorgeous .224 Mk V Varmintmaster.
It shoots tighter machine rest groups
than my Remington 40X-B stainless barrel in .220 Swift
or my Swedish Husqvarna in .22-250;
but the .220 is fun fast [albeit not at all a good choice accuracy chambering for the super accurate 40X-B]
and the .22-250 hits harder than just about any other .22 center-fire.
Want to know what .22 center-fire caliber I don't have?
NATO 5.56 --you could have guessed that.
The AR-15 practical function to which you referred
was never among my requirements as a civilian.
I haven't fired any of them in decades, though.
I played golf instead,
and now my back won't let me do even that.

I was mauled by a black bear in 1966 not kidding! We were in Yellowstone feeding black bears marshmallows and one mauled me. I survived of course and the bear was about 2.5 feet tall standing on its hind legs. I was in our 1965 Mercury Comet car feeding a baby bear marshmallows and ran out and tried to pet it on the head. It reached up and scratched my arm and bearly broke the skin. So technically I have been mauled by a bear.In 2017, when the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service removed protections from grizzly bears in Greater Yellowstone, both Idaho and Wyoming swiftly set up trophy hunts. Disregarding the hefty contribution grizzlies make to ecotourism that stimulates the economies in local communities surrounding Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks, these governors are once again pandering to a minority constituency eager to hunt these animals.
Grizzly bears once ranged from northern Mexico to Alaska, and in the lower 48 states numbered roughly 50,000 individuals in the early 1800s. In just over a century, by the 1930s, grizzly bears were nearly wiped out. Listing the species under the Endangered Species Act in 1975 helped to bring the population back from an estimated 135 remaining bears.

TRUE STORY!!!I saw a news article last week about two guys pre hunting season scouting for elk they popped out of the woods about 15ft from a mama grizzly and a cub. It attacked one of them and commenced to maul him. They both shot it (presumably with pistols) and one of them got shot in the shoulder in the attack. The bear was killed the two men lived one with bear injuries and a gsw.We just have adorable little black bears around here.
In the wild, the poor things don't usually live long enough to reach 300 lbs.
Nobody seems to be of a humor to shoot them, either.
They probably get sick from pollution or don't find enough food.
I suppose a grizzly would be a hell of a lot scarier.
I'd be more likely to shoot one of those if it wandered onto my porch
because it probably wouldn't leave on its own.
I'd have to use the Ruger 44 carbine because the target and varmint guns aren't going to stop it
and I'd have to hope that the Ruger could.
We don't have any of those anyway,
but if we did,
I'd never go to its house to shoot it.
Why the hell would anybody want to do that?
New Mexico’s governor on Friday issued an emergency order suspending the right to carry firearms in public across Albuquerque and the surrounding county for at least 30 days amid a spate of gun violence.
The Democratic governor, Michelle Lujan Grisham, said she is expecting legal challenges but felt compelled to act in response to gun deaths, including the fatal shooting of an 11-year-old boy outside a minor league baseball stadium this week.

She doesn't have that authority.
You might never know if it wasIt hasn't been my problem so far.![]()

What law prevents criminals from having guns while guaranteeing the rights of honest citizens to own a gun? If you don't like noncriminal citizens having the right to own a gun move to Mexico. See how it works for you there.

When the Constitution can be suspended with the stroke of a pen on an executive order then it does not mean anything.
