It doesn't matter if the military also uses a firearm. It is legal for U.S. Citizens to own many military firearms. It is an amendment to the Constitution that we have that right.

This event was sad, unneeded, and criminal. But if you think that a civilian doing a school shooting is the worst that can happen, you haven't studied what happens when only government has guns, and goes crazy.

Stalin killed more Russians that Hitler. Mao killed more Chinese than Stalin killed Russians!

Nobody comes close to the mass murders done by Government who cannot be opposed. We have the 2nd for a reason! It keeps Wackadoodle government in check. No, a hunting rifle is not going to stop an F-16. But a hunting rifle held by ground crewmen and their neighbors can keep that F-16 from flying again. It is enough to prevent the worst sorts of Government slaughters that have happened when Lefties went Murderous.

If government missuses an F-16, and we have a free press, so we know it, a crowd of citizens can keep that plane on the ground.

The difference between the "semi-automatic" rifles issued to folks in the military is the select fire, you get a "pew" setting, which fires one round per trigger pull (semi-auto), but then you can select "pew-pew-pew" setting, which fires three rounds per trigger pull (this is a great control setting), then you can select the "pew-pew-pew-pew-pew" setting, which will continue to fire as long as you hold the trigger. In no civilian offerings is such a selection available. In some the first setting is "no pew" (a safety), the second is "pew" and the third is "pew pew pew" but that one is not the three shot setting. M4 Carbine has the "burst" setting (pew pew pew, a 3 shot burst)...

In your article it describes select fire. This is the option I do not get in my hunting rifle, or my AR-15.
 
“You can’t?” Blackburn said.

“Not in this context. I’m not a biologist,” Jackson said.

She recognized the stinky bait and answered cleverly to avoid the bait.

It's okay. You're blind to the bait.
Stupidity is your superpower. How about you explain "the bait"? Lol, wait a minute, you can't do that, or you'd be taking the bait, right? That woman has the lowest IQ in any room she's in; that's obvious. She is a perfect example of a DEI hire and what happens when morons follow the libtard doctrine.

You know what else happens? People are told it's perfectly normal to pretend they have different genitalia because they were born in the wrong body, and instead of getting the help they need, they are pushed down a road that often results in their mental health deteriorating rather than improving, too often resulting in the insanity we saw today. Promoting transgenderism needs to be outlawed, along with any and all medical procedures and treatments for minors or anyone not paying for their own elective care. It should be illegal to mention transgenderism in any public school classroom unless it is prefaced with the fact that it is a proven mental illness that needs treatment rather than acceptance or normalization.

Before I get the predictable libtard drone response whining about how disgusting I am for saying these things, just like the scumbag politician I just watched who called anyone a dirtbag for mentioning transgenderism right after he ranted for five minutes about guns as the cause and those that would politicize this tragedy talking about transgenderism. The radical left is the scum of the earth, instantly politicizing every tragedy to achieve one of their key goals, taking all guns from law abiding citizens. At the same time while condemning anyone who dares expose the real roots of this evil, their toxic ideology of hate. You can scream, holler, and climb onto your soapbox to spew your sanctimonious drivel all you want, but it’s your actions and propaganda that have slaughtered over a hundred million people in the last century, with countless millions more suffering then and now across the globe. It’s a vile ideology, and I’m sick of American society tiptoeing around calling it out and acting accordingly. Are there many other problems? Absolutely, but we need to start fixing the ones staring us in the face first.

We have a lot of mass shootings in America. Do you have a ballpark percentage on how many involve transgenders?

I can get you pictures of the types of rifles the military uses if you wish. Bushmaster is one.

It doesn’t change what I was replying to, grok made an erroneous claim that the military doesn’t issue semi auto rifles. His statement needed to be corrected.

But, thanks for the lesson on the pews.

I've actually seen a picture of an M4A Carbine with them labeled that way. The M4A doesn't have a fully auto setting, just the "pew" and "pew pew pew" and safety, guy labeled it "no pew"... the M4A1 has safety, semi-auto, and fully auto... no burst setting.
