Re: "Assault Rifles" and Hunting argument
I said it on another thread, STOP trying to justify assault rifles. That's NOT the question. The question is, what public benefit is there from banning assault rifles? Is that justifiable? The previous AW ban did nothing for homicide rates or crime. The new proposal won't, either.
