I am using the pro-gun community definition of the word "banned" that means "not actually banned, just regulated".
You can also buy hand grenades with the appropriate permits and background checks. You know, just like guns in almost every other country where the pro-gun community insists they're "banned".
Why don't you walk us through the process of legally acquiring a brand new, new full-auto rifle in America?
You can't? Oh shit, guns must be banned in America.
The reality is that before you started your little pro-gun death cult, America routinely made risk vs reward judgements on firearms, no different than the UK did when they decided the murder weapon of choice for criminals and men who can't control their emotions doesn't have a place in modern society.
Anyway, talk next time there's horrific violence that makes international headlines. Do you think it's going to be from America or the UK?
Can't buy them at a corner store? Banned.
