If you think no civilian ever needs an AR-15

4 armed thugs against one disabled man. Tell me again why no one ever needs an AR-15 type weapon for defense that has rapid semi-automatic fire capability?

Oh yes, and a Democrat being exposed to facts.

If no one had any guns there would be far fewer deaths.

But people do have them and that's something you can't change

Maybe. But how would you stop this man with a knife?

Video may be disturbing.

How would he have been worse off with a shotgun?

I'm not sure why a taser wouldn't have worked, but he seemed to have come out OK without using an AR.
Few if any are trying to disarm cops, and if I were in a situation where it was a knife against a car, I would want the car, the guy with the knife might damage my plastic bumper, but I think I'd be OK. I've never actually hit an aggressor with my car, but I've sent a couple running.

She said if no one had *any* guns. Not if no one had an AR.

You only get one chance with a taser and if there’s more than one attacker you’re out of luck.

They have their limitations, but your example only had one attacker.

I'd have hit him with the car. If he ran away, that would be OK too.

You wouldn’t have had the chance to hit him with the car. And he showed no sign of stopping.

I would worry that any rounds from my AR fired in my house would potentially penetrate my house and my neighbor's house, possibly injuring or k*****g them. A shotgun or a semi-auto pistol loaded with hollow-points would be much safer for my neighbors and probably just as effective.
