Nope, not by a long shot.
You truly are a blithering idiot. Maybe it's your lack of command of English as a language?
LOL - this from some one who seems completely incapable of distinguishing an Assault Weapon(tm) from something used in an assault. Time for you to go back in the case.

And those have what to do with The Law? Your equivocation (that is, the confusing the multiple meanings of a word.) is where your "logic" fails. That's the whole point of the argument: SOD feels that because something is used in an assault, that makes it a weapon, ergo, it is an Assault weapon. True enough, unfortunately for him, the Legal Definition of an Assault Weapon, for proposes of the statue and discussion, do not include rocks. or knives, or machine guns. Never mind the ignorant media showed machine guns when discussing the upcoming legislation, and repeats the false hood when the ban sunsets, SOD wants to continue the fraud by equivocating on the term, and continue obfuscating the difference between machine guns and those firearms banned by the law.
And Peter has been told repeatedly that they are.
And SOD still wants to lie about the legal differences and what was, and wasn't, covered by the legislation. and for purposes of that law, sticks, rocks, baseball bats, nor his head qualify. But being a shill of an antigun_nut_, he continues attempting to confuse the two. The difference between him and the man who claims his dog has five legs because he calls the "tail" a leg is .. minimal.
So now you want to talk about household pets instead of cars?
No, I want to talk about Sod's deliberate lying. SOD's the one who continues the lie that machine guns were covered by the "Assault Weapons Ban of 1994". He's wrong, but to admit than is to concede that it was a "feel good" law which did nothing but harass honest citizens. No doubt he will claim he didn't feel harassed by the law, but then again, he doesn't seem an honest citizen to start with.
When will you actually be discussing firearms?
Have been doing so for quite some time. That your grasp of rhetoric, analogy, metaphor and simile is as lacking as your grasp of the truth doesn't change the facts. toodles pyotr -- pyotr filipivich Denial is not a river in Egypt, "Denial is a save-now-pay-later scheme, a contract written entirely in small print, for in the long run, the denying person knows the truth on some level.

Yep, thanks for the confession.

You lie again. Got a cite to where I ever stated that?

You lie again. Honest citizens were not harrassed in any way by the law.

Fact is, you lie.

I like how you snipped his statement to make it say what you wanted it to. Right up there with Michael Moore. There wasn't much doubt, but you've proven yourself to be fundamentally dishonest.

Yes, but since the National Firearms Act of 1934 severly restricts their ownership, it would require another law to open that up, or at least proof of the sunsetting of said law. Given the extent of the restrictions, including proof of need, I feel it safe to say that it bans the weapons, save for those grandfathered in by prior ownership.
No proof of need on a Form 4. Know what a Form 4 is? It's what lets you own a fully automatic weapon. It's a tax form. http://www.atf.gov/forms/pdfs/f53204.pdf The Hughes Amendment did not ban ownership. It just froze the NFA registry. Since you've never owned an NFA-34 firearms don't try tell us who know how about the laws and what we have to do to own them.

Logic and common sense?
Right. As has been pointed out to you before, logic and common sense has little to do with legislation and the law. And in this case, what SOD can't admit is that machine guns were not covered by the Assault Weapon ban of 1994" nor were other functionally identical rifles. The only thing banned by the act were cosmetic features. Now, to SOD, that may be trivial, but to collectors it isn't. And his repetition that "machine guns are assault weapons" demonstrates his obstinate adherence to a discredited fallacy. not to mention his basic dishonesty. Not to mention you are easily distracted.
Sez the imbecile who wants to spend more time talking about cars, automobiles, tractors and cats then about the topic under discussion -- firearms.
I see. So SOD is admitting his incapacity for understanding analogies, metaphors, similes or the other tools of the rhetorical art. He does have equivocation down pat, accepting a different meaning of a word to obscure his flawed logic. Like I said (pay attention, this is what is known as an "analogy"), SOD doesn't seem anymore able to discern the difference between "house cat" and "cat house" than he is able to discern the differences between a "weapon used in an assault" and an "Assault Weapon". -- pyotr filipivich Denial is not a river in Egypt, "Denial is a save-now-pay-later scheme, a contract written entirely in small print, for in the long run, the denying person knows the truth on some level.
