@augieray Can someone explain to me what AR-15 are good for, what are their purpose? I am a hunter, I spent lots of time getting the permits (in Sweden you need to show that you have the skills and the know-how before you can buy a gun, unless you're a criminal or insane), so I am not oblivious to why one might want a gun. I don't expect hunters to toss the bullets at the deer. I just don't see why anyone would want that particular weapon, if it's not to shoot humans. And that's not legal?

@nemorosa In some people's heads, it's about protecting themselves from a tyrannical government. In other's, protecting their home and family (and since the bad guys have assault rifles...) So, it is about shooting people.

@augieray Wow, that's, to me, is so foreign! I have a hard time wrapping my brain around it.

@nemorosa Even in the US, many of us feel the same.
