I Am Monkey (01/07/2013) [-] Multiculturalism. Which by the way is not the same thing as tolerance towards others cultures. I mean the type that is practiced mainly in the US were other cultures are celebrated to an unnatural degree and the original culture of the land is frowned upon as "closed minded".

arisaka (01/08/2013) [-] The United States practices a much different approach to multiculturalism than Canada, I can tell you that much. The United States favours a more 'integration' approach, whereas Canada will just approve the citizenship of whomever asks for it.
Unless you're in Quebec. We're terrible at immigration and multiculturalism, except for Montreal.

timay (01/07/2013) [-] I cant stand how stupid democrats are. Rep. José Serrano tried to pass H.J.Res 15 so obama can possibly get a new term.

Just a uh heads up, the limit of terms came after republicans lost several landslide elections until truman went and dun goofed, so it pretty much stems from butthurt, even though they kept democrats down for a while before that, it doesn't act as a curb against power, it does little and means little.

roliga (01/07/2013) [-] I have a huge problem with Diana DeGette. She's trying to pass an "assault weapons" ban but is never clear by what she means when she says assault weapon. The fact that she's trying to pass this isn't my problem, my problem is that she's jumping on the emotions of the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting just to push her political agenda forward. She knows for a fact that the only way she can get this passed is by preying on the emotions of the people effected by this tragedy. An assault weapon is a semi-automatic firearm, meaning that one round is shot each time the trigger is pulled, a spent cartridge case is ejected, and another one is loaded into the chamber without the need of manually operating a sliding hand grip, bolt handle, or lever. Diana Degette is only using the term assault weapon to confuse the general public by trying to mislead them to think that they are fully automatic weapons, when fully automatic firearms when they are not (fully automatic assault rifles have been heavily regulated by laws such as the Gun Control Act of 1968 as well as many state and local laws). Now some of you may think this is protecting the children, well guess what... According to the FBI assault weapons have only accounted for 2% of firearm related crime in the United States. The laws are fine as they are. The thing people don't realize is that the laws worked. The man from the Sandy Hook incident tried to purchase an assault weapon from a Dick's Sporting Goods and was turned away due to a background check. The firearms he obtained were obtained illegally. If Diana Degette was actually concerned for public safety she'd be trying to ban things like .22 handguns, or under $200 handguns. But sadly she is not concerned for public safety, only her own political agenda, and she will abuse the emotions of victims from this shooting purely to get ahead.

eight (01/07/2013) [-] Wow, so many naive people on this site. I'm gonna go down a whole level at this rate. I suppose I shouldn't judge too much considering half or more of the people on this site are likely under 16 and still listening to what mommy and daddy have to say instead of forming their own opinions off of the facts available and not listening to one news channel.

roliga (01/07/2013) [-] Seeing as some people here are talking guns, what do you think of the Spanish made Star Model B. A friend of mine's grandfather is an old WW2 vet and is selling his and I was thinking of buying it. I was going to offer him $250 for it, I think that's a fair price.

appleyjack **User deleted account** (01/07/2013) [-] assault rifle noun (Concise Encyclopedia)
Military firearm that is chambered for ammunition of reduced size or propellant charge and HAS THE CAPACITY TO SWITCH BETWEEN FULLY AUTOMATIC AND SEMI-AUTOMATIC FIRE. Light and portable, yet able to deliver a high volume of fire with reasonable accuracy at modern combat ranges of 1,000–1,600 ft (300–500 m).
these weapons are already banned, they have been since 1986. it is legal to own them, but you need a special license, which is very difficult to acquire.
just because it has a pistol grip, rails for attachments and an adjustable stock, does not make it an assault rifle. it makes it look like one, and makes it so you can put all sorts of badass stuff on it short of grenade launchers, but does not change the fact that it's not an assault rifle

qwermy (01/08/2013) [-]
I have no clue why this guy was thumbed down. He's entirely correct. Now, an assault weapon fits a set of characteristics which make it look like an assault rifle. However, the term is arbitrary. It was created in 1994 for the original Assault Weapons Ban. And now Feinstein redefined the term again for her proposed bill. Point here: what she really want to do is ban semi-autos, packaging them in a category that sounds like military firearms, when they are in fact civilian weapons.
