YES, YOU DO NEED STANDARD-CAPACITY MAGAZINES

Yes, you do need standard capacity magazines and not artificially low limits (like those shown above).  You cannot count on only needing five or ten rounds. If you watched the news last week, two stories should provide all of the proof you need to slap back the anti-self-defense dangerous quacks.

First out of Aurora, Colorado is a video of armed Venezuelan gang members taking over multiple apartment complexes. This is exactly why Americans need modern sporting rifles:

And, there is this incredible video out of Staten Island, for years considered the safest Borough in New York City. The video illustrates why you need a pistol with at least 15 rounds in its magazine.

I’ll cite two experts for you, with advice on these attacks. The first is Massad Ayoob who I have studied under multiple times. Under the doctrine of disparate force as explained by Mass here, when you’re outnumbered or facing younger, stronger, and violent felons, lethal force is a legal option.

John Farnam over at AmmoLand.com cites these three lessons:

1) The “illusion of safety”

THE ILLUSION OF SAFETY

This vicious, unprovoked attack took place in the middle of a sunny day, in a “gun-free” school zone, and within a quiet residential area.

Reputation and symbolism (e.g., “safety zones”)
protect no one!

 

 


2) “When you leave them alone, they’ll leave you alone” represents a self-deceptive fantasy!

These vicious, murderous [possibly illegal-alien] gangs know no limits, do not fear the “authorities,” have no compunction about randomly maiming/murdering anyone they choose, and respect no boundaries (particularly symbolic ones).

Too many honest, decent, productive citizens believe their personal respectability should, and does, magically protect them from harm.

Nonsense, as we see!

 

3) “Retreat, and they’ll let you go.”

More nonsense!

This victim did his best to disengage and run away. The gang overtook him, chased him down, and physically attacked him, in unison.

Unless you want to be totally defenseless like many in the blue states currently are, we need to boot out the Obama/Biden/Harris regime. We, as 2A advocates, need to fight like hell this election season to ensure “Heels-Up” Harris and valor-stealing Walz do not get elected to the White House come November.
