Americans who think they need a gun to defend themselves from the government, clearly don't know how tanks work

Just to explain a bit:

I'm not completely anti-gun.

Sport is a fair reason for owning a rifle.
I've been to sports shooting events, done clay pigeon shooting and even done some charity work with the SAS, where I've had the pleasure of shooting down range.

What I don't believe is that members of the public should have access to 5.56 NATO rounds, nor should they have access to variants of military weapons, semi auto or not.

Appreciate those who are inquiring into stuff and asking questions, thanks!

As for those over-analysing, I think you may be part of the reason this legislation and reform

Muting this thread now because it's the same comments over and over.
Automated responses:

- Philly was bombed by US police in 1985.

- Middle East guerilla fighters are using Russian weaponry, canabalising old Soviet tanks.

- Military tactics have evolved since 'Nam.

- You're over analysing this.

- Gun Regulation is and can be positive, if compromises are made and we listen to each other.

Who am I kidding you gun nuts ain't got the patience to read this far
