I recently got this post from a buddy who is just mi-informed. He is a great person, but just lacks the knowledge of firearms. This is of course regarding the recent tragedy with the Batman movie shooting. So, what part of this paragraph is true and false:
"I know you're a gun enthusiast and I by all means respect a person's right to carry a firearm and to enjoy firing them at the range, collecting them, etc.- there's nothing wrong with that- but you can't honestly expect me to believe that a person should be allowed to purchase an assault rifle, a 12 gauge shotgun and 2 .40 caliber handguns over the course of a few month period and that that doesn't set off a red flag. I mean, I know you own an AR-15 but can you give me a compelling reason WHY you should be allowed to own one? It isn't a self defense weapon. It's an assault weapon who's only purpose is to kill as many people as possible."
Thanks.
