Would you say that the AR-15 is designed "purely to kill people"? Any moreso than other guns?

Just take the L. I'm pretty sure when they were designing the AR15 to market and sell to soldiers in Vietnam they weren't looking into Coyote shooting applications.

Lol ok bub. You still haven't answered why the AR-15 is designed "purely to kill people" and more than any other gun. You keep pointing to... marketing or something?

I would suggest that since Eugene Stoner developed it specifically as an adaptation of the AR-10 in a .223 caliber at the request of the US military specifically to meet minimum depth of penetration requirements put forth by the Army would be the explanation you are looking for here.

So the that makes the AR-15 purely designed for killing people? And that's different than many other guns? I hate to keep beating a dead horse here, but this is such a simple point and you guys are so stubbornly refusing to acknowledge that was a dumb thing to say.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

Most mass shootings could just as easily have been accomplished with a 20 gage dickstone

Yep. I guess we all just need to hope we don't lose the mass shooting lottery.

Why else would I start with my fatalist k-s-u arguments? Nothing is good enough, so we just shouldnt do anything. Let it get worse. T's and P's ourselves into solving the problem

the ammunition, form factor, mechanism, were specifically optimized to meet the requirements of the us military for a battle rifle. nobody is explaining this to you because they would rather see you drown in a pool of your intellectual dishonesty

Yea it's still really unlikely but definitely scary.

yeah, don't worry. STATISTICALLY, you are far more likely to be accidentally shot to death by a toddler than randomly murdered by a mass shooter.

So is that supposed to be an argument for or against passing knee jerk "gun control"? Because the taking shoes off thing is a stupid idea and a pain in the ass. How about we not do something similar here?

The fact that you can pay a fee to not take off your shoes really just shows that nobody really needs to. It's all a show to make people feel safe.

You pay the fee for the background check.

Does anyone who doesn't suck at sports do target shooting as a hobby?
No. Total betas.
