An Iowa shootout leaves a fleeing suspect dead and 2 police officers injured

As far as semiautomatic weaponry and perhaps all firearms are concerned at a minimum I think the magazine capacity should not exceed 10 rounds. Perhaps even less. It’s a starting point anyway.
Yes, but all magazines made prior to the ban were grandfathered in. We’re talking tens-of-millions of magazines with a capacity of more than ten rounds. The law only banned new manufacture of 10+ round clips and mags. Sure, it means something. But, an outright ban would never pass. No way in hell.
Anybody have updates on officer shot in head?A shooting early Monday left two Iowa police officers hospitalized and a suspect dead, Des Moines police said.
The encounter began around 1:40 a.m. when patrol officers tried to pull over a vehicle and the driver refused to stop. A chase ensued before the fleeing vehicle crashed a short time later, police said.
When officers approached the driver to arrest him, he pulled out a handgun and began shooting at them, police Sgt. Paul Parizek said. Several officers returned fire, hitting the man.
Two officers were shot and rushed to a hospital. Parizek said both are expected to survive. The man who was shot died, Parizek said.
Des Moines police and the Iowa Department of Public Safety are investigating.

If you believe bad people won’t have guns if we have more gun laws, you are even dumber than I thought possible. Drugs are illegal and we know how hard it is for criminals to get drugs.
So, you're POV is to do nothing?If you believe bad people won’t have guns if we have more gun laws, you are even dumber than I thought possible. Drugs are illegal and we know how hard it is for criminals to get drugs.
Everything is fine?
Damn, you one dumb mofo.
What is an assault weapon. An assault is an action not an object. I own no Armalite style weapons. But I do own a semi auto shotgun, that loaded with buckshot can create one hell of a $hit storm. Do we ban shotguns also?
I'm not for taking away all guns, I don't see a reason the need for a fully automatic handgun.

You understand not all guns are assault weapons? Hand guns, lever action, bolt action, etc? Used to be you couldn’t but an AR type rifle…
Ok. Unless I missed it, I don't see anyone arguing for a fully automatic handgun. The point I'm trying to make is that illegal components are available to convert them (See post 23). So if one was to argue that a semi-auto rifle should be banned because it could be converted to fully auto, wouldn't that same person think that semi auto handguns should be banned as well given the video in post 23?
I’m on board with taking people guns away. Democrats should own the presidency, house and Senate by Jan. Where and how do we get started?
Yes. Slippery slope, right?
She said ‘we’re not taking ANYBODY’S GUNS’ - she didn’t ‘we’re not taking anybody’s assault weapons’. She said that a couple days later.
You clowns can’t even define ‘assault weapon’.
In the United States, assault weapon is a controversial term applied to different kinds of firearms.[1] There is no clear, consistent definition.

So, should we try to take away the availability to order/get parts to modify from semi to auto?
So again Democrats are attempting to use someone breaking the law, shooting at a cop is still breaking the law in America, as an entry why we should impact legal gun ownership.
Did you ever get over the trauma of having to go into a Hy-Vee store after dark?
There is no legal way to turn a semi auto into an automatic weapon. By definition a automatic fires multiple shots with 1 single trigger pull. There are ways to reduce the timing between each pull or to have the firearm reset due to recoil but the trigger still needs pulled to fire eqxh round.
Fwiw, the trigger that did what I'm talking about, is no longer available.

noun
noun: assault rifle; plural noun: assault rifles
Karamela didn’t define the term but she said ‘we’ need an assault WEAPONS ban, not an assault RIFLE ban.
Regardless, most experts agree that an assault rifle means fully automatic.
Don’t care, screw anyone that wants to disarm law abiding citizens.
True, but wouldn't it have been better if those minors were not allowed to own firearms in the first place?
