I know how fast a person can reload, under ideal circumstances and with no pressure... I also know how badly they can fumble it, allowing law enforcement to close them down and take control of the situation.
But if it were THAT much of an issue, you'd all have 250rnd belt-fed weapons...
But can you also see why so many nations think Americans are clueless gun-toting maniacs?
So why have you done this very thing?
We don't want to be a society that depends on being heavily armed just to go down the shops, that doesn't care if we're tens of times more likely to be shot than anywhere else, that accepts our children being murdered is just part of 'normal everyday life'... We have found that, contrary to the laws and statistical manipulation of a different land, banning guns actually works for us - And you don't like it?
