    No, it makes sense. Your answer doesn't make sense.

    Polls prove nothing. Besides doesn't the left call Fox Fake News?

    so what you are saying is you don't want people owning guns and you support any and all laws that harass lawful gun ownership. You cannot give us a rational reason why someone with 30 guns is going to be more dangerous (given anyone with a legal collection has a clean record) is going to be more dangerous if he adds one more gun to his collection.

    are you starting to understand why many of us who support freedom have nothing but contempt for the anti gun movement when their reasons for imposing harassment on gun owners is nothing more than silly spiteful nonsense?

    Communists hate guns, Trump, Freedom, prosperity....etc....but don't worry you will own nothing and be happy.

    you have no rational argument

    did you ever answer how someone with 32 guns is more dangerous than someone who has 31

    That answer isn't relevant to the question answered.

    Really? How many of the mass shootings could have been prevented with a waiting period? I have no idea if the other has misused a gun. As far as your silly analogy goes......it really only takes one doesn't it.

    it was a bogus answer. you never can explain why him having one more gun causes you any safety issues. are you starting to figure out that silly answers only justify us believing your real reasons are not ones you are willing to divulge? in law, if someone is sued for discrimination and the reason they give is bogus, the jury is allowed to conclude that the real reason was an illegal one and award damages.

    A dodge is not the same thing as an answer. Im sure you thought your position through and can easily describe a benefit to society. Here is the question you are dodging. I already have an extensive collection. How does a waiting period make society safer?

    he believes making someone with 30 guns wait a month to buy a 31st increases public safety. You aren't going to get a straight answer IMHO

    The statement was that people don't know what an assault rifle is and the answer you gave is 19000 dollars. Not relevant. The question you asked now isn't relevant. Please try to pay attention.

    do you even know what an assault rifle is? You are telling me to pay attention and you are engaging on dodging and refusing to answer straight forward questions. How is society safer by harassing a gun collector by making him wait a month to get another gun

    absolutely none since guns are easily obtained through sources other than a retail sale

    Zero.

    The reason you are avoiding my question is that waiting periods for existing gun owners has zero benefit to society. You cannot demonstrate otherwise.

    What do you think about banning assault clips?

    I haven't dodged anything. I've answered all your ridiculous questions. Do you read what you write? You think a "gun collector" waiting 30 days to get a gun is harrassment?!
    Seriously? He needs that 31st gun RIGHT NOW!! IT'S MY RIGHT!!. You don't think that that logic is ridiculous?! The fact that the waiting period doesn't just apply to "gun collectors" just seems to be lost on you. Your outlook is simply..."How does this affect me" and not society as a whole. Pathetic actually.

    Ok then, how many were guns in mass shootings were obtained that way? Your answer in and of itself shows what the problem with gun availability is and you see no problem with it.

    the burden is on you to explain why his right to buy a gun should be delayed and all you give is a bullshit claim that he's less dangerous with dozens of guns vs dozens plus one. there is no evidence waiting periods decrease violent crime and people like you will continue to push the length of the wait in the face of it failing. your flippant comment about him not needing another gun shows your real motivations and pretending your desire to harass people who don't buy into your politics is poor form and pretending you care about society is a bigger bit of bogus bs
