    Default This fellow bought an AK-47 Because he thought they would be banned

    Here's what he used it for:

    http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2013/0...r-over-grades/
    The complaint states that the girl and Bartashevitch were arguing at their residence on Jan. 13 about her grades in school. She was getting two Bs in school instead of two As. He swore at the girl, who then told him she hated him, and he grabbed a recently purchased AK-47 and pointed it at her.

    According to the complaint, he bought the rifle because he knew it would soon be banned. The girl’s mother jumped between them when he pointed the gun, and the girl was eventually ordered to go to her room by Bartashevitch.

    The girl’s mother told police that when she intervened, Bartasevitch threw her to the floor and that he pointed the gun at both of them, the complaint states.

    So if he threatened to cut her throat with a chef's knife we should ban them also? Just lock up the nut job. Your obsession with this is getting pretty bizarre.

    In before "it's not an AK-47" and "it's not an assault rifle".

    Heh. Right, the tactic where they try to define it away. That usually comes in on page 2.

    It was the threat of bodily harm that got him trouble. He could have threatened them with a baseball bat and received the same charge.

    Not if he bought an NFA weapon, did the paperwork, and paid the man.

    I doubt it's legal to throw someone to the floor and threaten them if it is a semi-automatic weapon.

    So he didn't buy it before it was banned?

    The mom needs to do the right thing and get herself and daughter away from the AWM coward Bartasevitch. He's typical didn't get his way so he pulls out a gun.

    Vincini was always satire.

    I finally changed to a fellow polymath.

    What the heck are you talking about? The squid is obsessed with gun crime and you tell me I don't care about gun safety? I said to lock the guy up. I have plenty of guns and ammo but never had a mishap. They are all secured in a safe and I always follow safe gun handling. My guns only kill paper targets, geese and deer. Unless of course you came into my house and try to harm me or my family.
