Feinstein is our hero in Cali!

Good.. Keep her (in California) where she can continue to screw up that State. I'm positive that she and Pelosi are lesbian lovers!

Heres another democrat from the house explaining why she banned barrel shrouds.

A well written article on "assault weapons" ban:

The writer is a democrat and a gun owner, do not read if your a wordsmith as they are mentioned.

"As we have seen, the battles of gun control have been fought, won and lost with definitions. Categories are created, connotations ascribed with the stroke of a pen."

Sad that our elected representatives doesn't even know what it is they want to ban.

And yet their hell bent on writing laws to restrict gun ownership.

It's actually a really good article and answers most of the questions Hank was asking on gun control a few pages back.

Interesting.... what the American people really want... and not what the media says they want...

According to a Gallup poll conducted on Tuesday, Americans want better mental health care, more police in school and a reduction in violent media more than they want a weapons ban to prevent school shootings. A majority did not think a weapons ban would be very effective in stopping shootings.

To Stop Shootings, Americans Focus on Police, Mental Health

Well, I finally had the time to read this entire thread, good stuff.

Now, for my 2 cents on Acca's question...the term "Assault Weapon" pisses me off to no end. Let's face it, every single gun we shoot today, including muzzle loaders, shotguns, lever actions, bolt actions, single action revolvers, double action revolvers, semi-auto handguns and rifles, etc, etc, etc were at one time the latest technology and weapons of war. And since they were all used on the battlefield, they must all be classified as assault weapons.

A gun is a gun. Plain and simple. Just because one looks different or one loads faster or one is pretty and one is ugly makes no difference. They all do the exact same thing.

The media loves to use the term because it has a negative (evil?) sound to it, just like them using the term "automatic weapon" to describe a semi-auto. Sensationalizing is the name of the game. The media infuriates me too.

On a positive note...it is wonderful to see all the passionate law abiding gun aficionados standing up and letting their voices be heard. Keep up the good work.

I've talked with several who are in law enforcement here in Southern Utah, including a police chief. Without hesitation, they all say there is no way in hell they would even consider this an option and ALL have stated they also have black rifles they would plan on keeping. Although law enforcement might have an easier route for keeping black guns, still no one willing to knock on doors to do such.

And since we all are now well versed on what an assault weapon is

[2065toyota]

The ironic thing is that if I ever was forced to flee my house I would take a handgun and one of my scoped rifles before my "assault" rifle. Maybe that's just me, but long range rifle would be more useful for protecting and hunting

Two views of how to protect children from maniacs. Which of the two would you prefer for your children?
