What would you think if a long-time gun control advocate ended up shooting someone? Might the word “hypocrite” come to mind?

It did for me, and apparently for many others.

The Richmond Times-Dispatch reports North Carolina state senator R.C. Soles shot one of two intruders who attempted to break into his house.

But it gets even more interesting than the mere hypocrisy of a gun control activist shooting somebody.

Define "many others". Who are "they"? A small unnoticed newsite read primarily by gun nuts and survivalists?

And no, I do not have a problem with weapons ownership with the exception of assault and automatic weaponry.

You are aware that Assault weapons ARE automatic weapons right?

because true assault rifles can fire in full auto (Or Automatic)mode.

I'm a staunch supporter of Semi-Automatic weapons in civilian hands.

no matter the caliber or capacity,I also don't think it's up to me to tell others what should be legal as far as inanimate objects are concerned,however I feel it should be stated that full auto's would cost the owner piles of money (Increased wear on parts,not to mention the cost of ammo alone would run through a small fortune these days).

Maybe you should do a little reading before you post.

It might help improve your understanding of the subject at hand.

If the two of you had read the story the link leads to, you would have noticed that the OP had copied and pasted part of the story which contained the question. He was not asking a question.professor

So your whole point of this thread was to ridicule someone and to enlighten us about your knowledge of weapons

Well I just read the link. It doesn't take a genius to work out that the author is anti gun control.

I was anti-gun until I learned to shoot and safely handle firearms. I'm a gun owner now.

I worry more about the danger of someone talking or texting on a cell phone while driving more than I do about a responsible gun owner.

Liberals claim they wan to ban assault guns but the fact of the matter is that they want semi autos banned along with full automatic weapons. semi autos are not assault guns they are used primarily for hunting and target shooting what not. The liberals want so bad to label all self loading guns as tools of the devil.
