3 round burst for the M16A4 and M4. Auto for those lucky enough to have an M4A1.

I don't carry one, but handguns can be concealed for personal protection. That's practical.

If I need to "assault" someone breaking into my home and threatening my family. Any more questions?

That's what I thought.

well, Germany only existed since 1870, so you do the math.
pretty fricking hard to compare nazi Germany to USA 21st century.

What is an assault rifle? Any instrument used in an assault is an assault weapon.

How is that practical? Only a perp should have to conceal a weapon because they want the element of surprise. You can’t hunt with handguns. So how are handguns are practical? Handguns are only practical when other people may have handguns.
You haven’t proven that handguns are practical just like you haven’t proven assault rifles are impractical

Just a simple question
I only got through two pages of your responses before posting this. You state the above in almost every one of your responses. Outside of the obvious fallacies in your “argument” and responses, it is actually not a simple question that warrants a simple answer.
You and I probably won’t agree on definitions of practical, which creates confusion in the argument from the onset. We probably won’t agree on the definition of “assault” rifles either (at least I wouldn’t think so based off of some of your replies).
So how are you and I supposed to have an argument about something when we can’t agree on multiple facets of what the argument actually is?

Religious beliefs or not....abortion does kill living unborn children

That's a made up term meant to evoke an emotional response from people who are prone to having their emotions drive their opinions...like yourself.

Interesting that you think this. Thanks for the input.

Why would a gun have to be concealed for personal protection?
And when you say "protection", do you mean to kill, injure, or intimidate?

Solid response.
You still haven’t explained how handguns are more practical than “assault rifles”

You don't think a properly motivated, popular, charismatic President could consolidate power after a costly war and in the midst of a massive economic depression?
Just because it hasn't happened, doesn't mean it can't. Are you naive, or just young?
You can look back in our own history and see how many times we have narrowly avoided actual coups.

Would be kind of difficult concealing a rifle for personal protection.
What part of practical do you now understand?

Do you really want a list of all "perfect" governments and empires that collapsed, despite it being "impossible"?

I support late term abortion, like 6 or 7 years, because some kids just suck

Concealment increases practicality, to you?
